The observation of superconductivity in infinite-layer nickelates has been limited to epitaxial thin films, which has restricted their experimental investigation. Now, a technique is reported for the release of millimetre-scale freestanding superconducting nickelate membranes. This geometry enables a range of studies, including the response of superconductivity to strain.
