The method is based on altering the electronic properties of a thin film of a superconductor by periodically fabricating holes in the crystal lattice. We use a MATLAB simulation to demonstrate that certain patterns enhance the coupling between electrons and phonons, which increases the transition temperature. In this project we attempted to improve the simulation such that it executes faster and is compatible with hexagonal structures.Show less
