Muller, who was 95, died on January 9, according to a death notice published in the Tages-Anzeiger newspaper by his family and the IBM Research laboratory. They were honoured “for their important breakthrough in the discovery of superconductivity in ceramic materials.” After that, superconductivity for decades appeared possible only in metallic compounds at similarly super-low temperatures.
Their discovery of a new class of superconductors, so-called high-temperature superconductors , earned them the Nobel nod the following year.
