Recently, Cu-substituted lead apatite LK-99 was reported to have room-temperature ambient-pressure superconductivity. Here we utilize density functional theory (DFT) total energy and harmonic phonon calculations to investigate the…
The recent experimental claim of room-temperature ambient-pressure superconductivity in a Cu-doped lead-apatite (LK-99) has ignited substantial research interest in both experimental and theoretical domains. Previous density functional…
We study the correlated electronic structure and local spin behaviour of the copper-substituted lead-vanadium bromine apatite Pb$_9$Cu(VO$_4$)$_6$Br$_2$ using DFT+DMFT with a two-orbital Cu-centred low-energy model. Simulations are done for…
The claims that a copper-substituted lead apatite, denoted as CuPb$_9$(PO$_4$)$_6$OH$_2$, could be a room-temperature superconductor have led to an intense research activity. While other research groups did not confirm these claims, and the…
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…
The flurry of theoretical and experimental studies following the report of room-temperature superconductivity at ambient pressure in Cu-substituted lead apatite Cu$_x$Pb$_{10-x}$(PO$_4$)$_6$O (`LK99') have explored whether and how this…
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…
Lead-free halide double perovskites are promising alternatives to Pb-based semiconductors, but their discovery is challenging because structural formability, thermodynamic stability, band-gap placement, optical-transition strength,…
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.…
The copper substituted lead oxyapatite, Pb$_{10-x}$Cu$_{x}$(PO$_{3.92(4)}$)$_{6}$O$_{0.96(3)}$ (x=0.94(6)) was studied using neutron and x-ray diffraction and neutron spectroscopy techniques. The crystal structure of the main phase of our…
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…

The hope that copper doped lead apatite Pb$_9$Cu(PO$_4$)$_6$O is a room-temperature superconductor has largely been dashed by global research efforts. Nevertheless, according to the current state of knowledge, the material has interesting…
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…
Band gap engineering of oxide semiconductors through doping is critical for photocatalysis and optoelectronics, yet the combinatorial space of dopant elements, substitution sites, and co-doping combinations far exceeds typical density…
On the basis of the first-principles evolutionary crystal structure prediction of stable compounds in the Cu-F system, we predict two experimentally unknown stable phases -- Cu2F5 and CuF3. Cu2F5 comprises two interacting magnetic…
An intuitive chemical perspective on the LK-99 material is outlined and supported by DFT calculations. A hidden flat Lead band that exhibits instability toward charge density wave formation is exposed. Electron transfer between Lead…
