Theory named after John Bardeen, Leon Cooper, and John Robert Schrieffer. It is the first microscopic theory of superconductivity since Heike Kamerlingh Onnes’s 1911 discovery. The theory describes superconductivity as a microscopic effect caused by a condensation of Cooper pairs into a boson-like state.
