Summary

The authors report the observation of superconductivity at 23 K in a multiple-phase bulk sample of a quaternary intermetallic, yttrium palladium boride carbide. This is higher than any critical temperature reported previously for a bulk intermetallic compound. Although the materials are not yet single-phase, the superconducting volume fraction is large. The authors propose that this compound may represent the first of a new family of superconducting intermetallics with relatively high critical temperatures.
