Ten years ago, Ising superconductivity was discovered in a single layer of NbSe\u2082, which has unique quantum properties and could be used, for example, in the development of topological quantum computers. A typical feature of this phenomenon is that superconductivity can withstand extremely strong magnetic fields if they are oriented parallel to the layer. However, two-dimensional materials are impractical, and adding additional layers of NbSe\u2082 usually causes this phenomenon to disappear. A research team from Ko\u0161ice from the Institute of Physics at the Faculty of Science at Pavol Jozef \u0160af\u00e1rik University and the Institute of Experimental Physics of the Slovak Academy of Sciences, in cooperation with scientists from two French universities led by Mgr. Tom\u00e1\u0161 Samuely, PhD. has shown that with specific symmetry breaking, Ising superconductivity is preserved with any number of layers in a 3D NbSe\u2082 crystal. This discovery was published in Physical Review Letters, one of the most prestigious scientific journals focused on physics research. The journal is included in the Nature Index (https:\/\/www.nature.com\/nature-index\/faq#journals ) and has an impact factor of 9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
