Perhaps this is because of the intriguing interpretation of the phenomenon, which remains controversial, or for the secret hope of being able to synthesize a material with a critical superconductive transition temperature (TC) high enough to revolutionize the sector of energy generation and transport. As a matter of fact, the search for new superconductor materials has motivated an army of scientists, in particular, after the discovery of high-TC superconductor cuprates (HTS) in the mid-80s. Besides the unremitting interest in HTS, new materials, such as intermetallic borides, iron-nickel-based superconductors, heavy fermion, and organic and superhydride systems, are still delivering outstanding achievements to the scientific community, among which includes thousands of papers and a handful of Nobel prize winners). This Special Issue "Synthesis and Characterization of New Superconductor Materials" is a collection of scientific contributions providing new insights and advances in this fascinating field, addressing issues ranging from the fundamental research (theory and correlation between critical temperature, TC, and structural properties) to the development of innovative solutions for practical applications of superconductivity: Synthesis of new superconducting materials Magnetic and/or electric characterization of the TC transition Role of crystal symmetry and chemical substitutions on TC TC dependence on external stimuli and/or non-ambient conditions Theoretical modeling 606 $aResearch and information: general$2bicssc 610 $aAC susceptibility 610 $aBaZrO3 610 $aBi-2212 610 $abismuth-based cuprates 610 $achemical intercalation 610 $aco-precipitation 610 $aDirac electron 610 $aEr123 610 $aFeSe 610 $afocused ion beam 610 $ahigh pressure 610 $ahigh-temperature superconductors 610 $ainterfacial coupling 610 $ainterlayer magnetoresistance 610 $aLandau level 610 $amelt temperature 610 $an/a 610 $aorganic conductor 610 $asolid-state 610 $asuperconducting joint 610 $asuperconducting solder 610 $asuperconductivity 610 $aWeyl semimetal 610 $aYBa2Cu3O7?? 610 $a?-(BEDT-TTF)2I3 615 7$aResearch and information: general 700 $aGilioli$b Edmondo$4edt$0425044 702 $aDelmonte$b Davide$4edt 702 $aGilioli$b Edmondo$4oth 702 $aDelmonte$b Davide$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557390003321 996 $aSynthesis and Characterization of New Superconductors Materials$93023581 997 $aUNINA
