LK-99
A copper-doped lead apatite that went viral in 2023 as a claimed room-temperature, ambient-pressure superconductor.
A copper-doped lead apatite that went viral in 2023 as a claimed room-temperature, ambient-pressure superconductor. The market currently treats one as genuinely contested and one as unlikely or false.
Where the evidence is divided
Whether the sharp resistance drop reported in LK-99 samples is explained by copper sulfide impurities remains disputed . Traders backing it argue: Cu2S undergoes a structural transition near 104 °C.
Common misconceptions
The idea that LK-99 is a superconductor at room temperature and ambient pressure is a minority view .
