Which mechanism enables zero resistance within a superconducting quantum interferometer?

A)Cooper pair quantum tunneling✓
B)Increased electron-phonon scattering
C)Destructive interference of phonons
D)Suppressed thermal carrier excitation

💡 Explanation

Cooper pair quantum tunneling allows pairs of electrons to move through barriers without energy loss because the coherence extends across tunnel junctions; therefore, lossless current flow happens, rather than energy dissipation from scattering, a characteristic of normal conductors.
