But the hunt for a superconductor—that is, a material that can conduct electricity without resistance—that can operate at room temperature is nothing new. A Dutch physicist discovered the phenomenon ...

LK99 is the material that South Korean researchers claimed was a room temperature superconductor. The patents and the original papers described superconducting low level electrical resistance for thin ...

The news doesn’t go long without some kind of superconductor announcement these days. Unfortunately, these come in several categories: materials that require warmer temperatures than previous ...

The main researchers working on LK99-like room temperature and room pressure superconductors are in China and South Korea. There have been reports that the China researchers have successfully ...

The past few weeks have seen a huge surge of interest among scientists and the public in a material called LK-99 after it was claimed to be a superconductor at room temperature and ambient pressure.

In a new development that could help redefine the future of technology, a team of physicists has uncovered a fundamental insight into the upper limit of superconducting temperature. Superconductors, ...

What is claimed is that the difference from plain HOPG is the presence of parallel linear defects that result from the cleaving process, a defect line in which the authors speculate that the strain ...

After a raucous year of supposed breakthroughs in superconducting physics, 2023 is looking like it’s going to end with a whimper. This summer, LK-99 was the room-temperature superconductor du jour.
