A recent paper [Lee {\em et al.}, J. Korean Cryt. Growth Cryst. Techn. {\bf 33}, 61 (2023)] provides some experimental indications that Pb$_{10-x}$Cu$_x$(PO$_4$)$_6$O with $x\approx 1$, coined LK-99, might be a room-temperature…
LK-99, with chemical formula Pb$_{10-x}$Cu$_x$(PO4)$_6$O, was recently reported to be a room-temperature superconductor. While this claim has met with little support in a flurry of ensuing work, a variety of calculations (mostly based on…
The most recent discovery, the Cu-doped lead apatite LK-99, is a proposed room-temperature superconductor operating under ambient pressure. However, this discovery has brought a slew of conflicting results from different scientific groups.…
In a series of recent reports, doped lead apatite (LK-99) has been proposed as a candidate ambient temperature and pressure superconductor. However, from both an experimental and theoretical perspective, these claims are largely…
Two recent preprints in the physics archive (arXiv) have called attention as they claim experimental evidence that a Cu-substituted apatite material (dubbed LK-99) exhibits superconductivity at room temperature and pressure. If this proves…
A material called LK-99, a modified-lead apatite crystal structure with the composition Pb$_{10-x}$Cu$_x$(PO$_4$)$_6$O ($0.9<x<1.1$) has been reported to be an above-room-temperature superconductor at ambient pressure. It is hard to expect…
Recently, Lee et al. reported the experimental discovery of room-temperature ambient-pressure superconductivity in a Cu-doped lead-apatite (LK-99) (arXiv:2307.12008, arXiv:2307.12037). Remarkably, the superconductivity persists up to 400 K…
The pursuit of room-temperature ambient-pressure superconductivity in novel materials has sparked interest, with recent reports suggesting such properties in Cu-substituted lead apatite, known as LK-99. However, these claims lack…
The recent claimed room-temperature superconductivity in Cu-doped lead apatite at ambient pressure are under highly debate. To identify its physical origin, we studied the crystal structures, energy band structures, lattice dynamics and…
A material called LK-99, a modified-lead apatite crystal structure with the composition Pb$_{10-x}$Cu$_x$(PO$_4$)$_6$O ($0.9<x<1.1$), has been synthesized using the solid-state method. The material exhibits the Ohmic metal characteristic of…
We have studied LK-99 [Pb$_{10-x}$Cu$_x$(PO$_4$)$_6$O], alleged by Lee et al. to exhibit superconductivity above room temperature and at ambient pressure, and have reproduced all anomalies in electric and magnetic measurements that they…
Recently, above-room temperature superconductivity was reported in the Cu doped lead apatite Pb$_{10-x}$Cu$_x$(PO4)$_6$O, dubbed LK-99. By relaxing the structure with Cu substitution, we derive a four-band low-energy model with two 3/4…
Recently, Sukbae Lee et al.reported that material Pb$_{10-x}$Cu$_x$(PO$_4$)$_6$O (LK-99) has a series of characteristics of room temperature superconductors, including diamagnetic transition, resistance jump, nearly zero-resistance,…
Lee et al. reported that the compound LK99, with a chemical formula of Pb$_{10-x}$Cu$_x$(PO$_4$)$_6$O ($0.9<x<1.1$), exhibits room-temperature superconductivity under ambient pressure. In this study, we investigated the transport and…
We briefly review the status quo of research on the putative superconductor Pb$_9$Cu(PO$_4$)$_6$O also known as LK-99. Further, we provide {\em ab initio} derived tight-binding parameters for a two- and five-band model, and solve these in…
By means of density functional theory and constrained random phase approximation we analyze the bandstructure of Pb$_9$Cu(PO$_4$)$_6$O (named LK-99). Our data show that the lead-phosphate apatite LK-99 in the proposed Cu-doped structure is…
Superconducting materials with high critical temperature have the potential to revolutionize many fields, including military, electronic communications, and power energy. Therefore, Scientists around the world have been tirelessly working…
Based on DFT calculations, we present the basic electronic structure of CuPb9(PO4)6O (Cu-doped lead apatite, LK-99), in two scenarios: (1) where the structure is constrained to the P3 symmetry and (2) where no symmetry is imposed. At the…
A recent report of room temperature superconductivity at ambient pressure in Cu-substituted apatite (`LK99') has invigorated interest in the understanding of what materials and mechanisms can allow for high-temperature superconductivity.…
Finding a material that turns superconducting under ambient conditions has been the goal of over a century of research, and recently Pb$_{10-x}$Cu$_x$(PO$_4$)$_6$O aka LK-99 has been put forward as a possible contestant. In this work, we…
