The MPSD team plans to characterize similar transient superconducting states with the same precision as equilibrium states, with the goal of better understanding the microscopic mechanisms behind light-induced superconductivity.

They hope to measure the magnetic and electrical properties of this state, the atomic structure, and quantum phenomena such as the electron tunneling effect, proximity effect, and other related phenomena. "It would also be interesting to consider new potential applications of such systems in quantum optoelectronics," Cavalieri explained.
