A superconductor device includes a low-dimensional material with a critical temperature higher than a critical temperature corresponding to a bulk form of the low-dimensional material. The low-dimensional material can include shape and structural modifications of a low-dimensional material. The superconductor device can include various conformational arrangements of the low-dimensional material such as nanoribbons, nanotubes, or helices. The superconductor device can include functional groups, such as hydrogen, attached to the low-dimensional material. The superconductor device can include metallic clusters located in proximity to the low-dimensional material. The superconductor device can include a low-dimensional material which is a monolayer, bilayer or multilayer.

High temperature superconducting structures

An electron beam source is provided that includes a vessel forming a chamber, a cathode disposed within the chamber, the cathode comprising a low dimensional electrically conductive material having an anisotropic restricted thermal conductivity, an electrode disposed in the chamber, the electrode being connectable to a power source for applying a positive voltage to the electrode relative to the cathode for accelerating free electrons away from the cathode to form an electron beam when the cathode is illuminated by electromagnetic (EM) radiation such that the cathode thermionically emits free electrons, and an electron emission window in the chamber for passing a generated electron beam out of the chamber. An electron microscope that incorporates the electron beam source is also provided.
