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…
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…

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…
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…

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…
