Transition temperature

Transition temperature is the temperature at which a material changes from one crystal state ( allotrope) to another. For example, when rhombic sulfur is heated above 96°C it changes form into monoclinic sulfur. When cooled below 96°C it reverts to rhombic sulfur.

In the case of ferroelectric or ferromagnetic crystals a transition temperature may be known as the Curie temperature.

The new compounds have unlimited current density capacities, and remain superconductive up to the antiferromagnetic transition temperature, in the area of 330 degrees Celsius.
