Intrinsic constraint on T c for unconventional superconductivity by Qiong Qin, Yi-feng Yang

“…As a result, the known families of unconventional superconductivity, possibly except the infinite-layer nickelates, seem to almost exhaust their potentials in reaching the maximal T c allowed by their respective J, while achieving room temperature superconductor would require a much larger J beyond 400–700 meV, which seems unrealistic in existing correlated materials and hence demands novel pairing mechanisms. The agreement also implies some deep underlying principles of the constraint that urge for a more rigorous theoretical understanding.…”
