During the last five years, few scientists have successfully employed very high pressures in order to produce metal hydrides, rich in hydrogen, which become superconductive around -20 degrees Celsius. This so-called transition temperature of metal hydrides is therefore considerably higher than that of other materials, which become superconductive only at -200 degrees Celsius.
