Phenomenon of superconductivity was first observed by Kamerlingh Onnes in Leiden in 1911 ,3 years after he first liquified helium gas. He observed that electrical resistivity of such as mercury, tin, lead completely disappear i.e., suddenly dropped to zero in a small range of temperature at a critical temperature TC which is the characterstics of the material.
