without resistance

Police officers, clad in riot gear and prepared with zip ties, began taking protesters into custody just before 1:30 p.m., loading them onto buses without resistance as other students chanted “Shame!”

Ranga Dias of the University of Rochester gained worldwide acclaim with a pair of papers in 2020 and 2023 in Nature describing two compounds that appeared to conduct electricity without resistance near ambient temperature.

Superconductors are a special class of materials which, when cooled below a certain temperature, carry large electrical currents without resistance.

The resulting, extremely thin quantum semiconductors are composed of a single atom layer -- in indenene's case, indium atoms -- and act as topological insulators, conducting electricity virtually without resistance along their edges.

When cooled to a critical temperature, superconductors can conduct electricity without resistance or energy loss.
