In 1911, H.K. Onnes — a Dutch physicist — discovered superconductivity. The physicist discovered superconductivity by cooling mercury metal to extremely low temperature and observing that the metal exhibited zero resistance to electric current. Before 1973, many other metals and metal alloys were observed to behave as superconductors at temperatures below -250°C. These materials are known as low temperature superconductor (LTS) materials. Since the 1960s, niobium-titanium (Ni-Ti) alloy has been the material of choice for commercial superconducting magnets.
