  • In this video I use a type II superconductor to perform a quantum locking demonstration using YCBO (Yttrium barium copper oxide). I then explain in depth how superconductors and quantum locking (Flux pinning) works.

    I spent the better part of my childhood attempting to make magnetic levitation . and the closest I got was 2 neodymium rings on a pencil. turns out all I needed was a type 2 superconductor and some liquid nitrogen. what I would've given to have this guy as a science teacher as a kid. fascinating stuff man!!! thank you for this, I genuinely feel a small part of me was never going to be satisfied until I could see it happen.

    I'm guessing the superconductor was re-cooled a few times during this demonstration. That's the downside to superconductors - they need to be kept cold or the superconductivity goes away.

      I caught this. And yes, it is all relative. While watching, I was vaguely thinking about how this worked at the much larger scale of the quantum locking demonstrated in the video. That wasn't just a few nanometers. The effect on the whole object was happening at several centimeters, to be sure. I didn't really quite grasp how the electron couplets related to the effect at such distance. Maybe I just didn't get where each electron of the couplet "lived". Surely one is not in the magnet and the other in the superconductor. There is certainly more to be "grokked" here...

      @ the two electrons are in the superconductor. The pair thing only happens to get the electrons in a lower quantum state so they require a specific energy to get scattered on bumping into anything(nothing less). Now because the temp is low the atoms don't have that specific energy to scatter so the electron pair keeps moving

    They also demonstrated a "magnetic cannon" using magnets and iron ball bearings, but the quantum-locked superconductor definitely stole the show.
    The year after, they demonstrated the world's first industrial water jet cutter, which was developed at that lab, by cutting an anvil in half.

    I've never seen this before. One of my favorite gadgets is an earth floating between 2 magnetic fields. This was truly fascinating. How does someone get liquid nitrogen? Science is awe-some! Thank you for making this video.

      The magnetic trains (usualy in Japan) are actualy flying on superconductors and magnets that is why they can go so fast.

      The vision of the future will look is an illusion. You're in it without realizing it.
