The discovery of superconductivity at 203 kelvin in hydrogen sulphide under extreme pressure has renewed hope for finding room‐temperature superconductivity. From the magnetisation the London penetration depth and superconducting energy gap are found to be similar to those of cuprate superconductors. However, unlike the cuprates, Tc of the hydride is not limited by fluctuations due to its three dimensionality, suggesting the search for better superconductors should refocus on three‐dimensional systems.
