Abstract
Two high temperature beryllium allotropes have been stabilized at room temperature through the addition of transition elements. Superconductivity has been observed in almost all of them. Beryllium films reported superconducting in the past appear in all probability to require the presence of transition element impurities, in order to show the phenomenon.
