Like a two-lane highway with one lane empty and the other clogged with traffic, superconducting diodes allow electrons to flow without resistance in one direction while encountering normal, resistive conditions in the other. First demonstrated experimentally in 2020, these devices have considerable potential as platforms for fundamental studies of quantum materials and as building blocks for superconducting electronics.
