Abstract
The family of cuprate superconductors synthesized over the last 25-30 years , has shown a remarkable promise in the journey towards fulfilling our dream of achieving superconductivity at room temperature. The peculiarity and richness of microscopic physics involved in superconducting pair formation in cuprate systems, is discussed from theoretical perspectives with inclusion of our own work on this aspect. The possible clues to achieving still higher superconducting transition temperature, obtainable from the studies of various classes of superconductors of both conventional and exotic types, are sketched out.
