Which mechanism induces perfect conductivity when a niobium-titanium alloy is cooled near absolute zero?

A)Cooper pair formation
B)Increased electron scattering
C)Phonon-induced resistance enhancement
D)Fermi level depopulation

💡 Explanation

The material becomes superconducting because, at low temperatures, electrons form Cooper pairs via electron-phonon interactions; therefore, electron transport experiences no resistance due to Cooper Pair formation overcoming electron scattering, rather than resistance increasing with lower temperature.
