List of superconductors

The table showing major parameters of major superconductors of simple structure. X:Y means material X doped with element Y, TC is the highest reported transition temperature in kelvins and HC is a critical magnetic field in teslas. "BCS" means whether or not the superconductivity is explained within the BCS theory.
