Summary of Good LK99 Room Temperature Superconductor Developments

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 film versions of LK99. There were a lot of negative experiments from researchers who made bulk samples of LK99. The negative papers never made and never wrote …

Breakthrough Superconducting Devices With High Temperature Superconductors

Kim, Harvard, and his fellow researchers have a promising candidate for the world’s first high-temperature, superconducting diode—essentially, a switch that makes current flow in one direction—made out of thin cuprate crystals. This would be the first superconducting switch made using higher temperature cuprate superconductors instead of lower temperature and more expensive superconductors. The team’s experiments …

LK99 Thin Film Room Temperature Superconducting Researcher Says Big DARPA Funding is Coming

Professor Guilan says that IF the original South Korean LK99 team are not direct cheaters then the evidence is that they did create room temperature superconductors. Armen Gulian, professor of physics Chapman University, discusses his effort to make LK99 thin film with funding from the US Navy. At about 37 minutes into the talk, he …

Original LK99 Team Reassert Superconductivity Claim and New Evidence is Not Ready Yet

The Korean Society of Superconductivity and Cryogenics’ review committee on Wednesday said LK-99, an alleged room-temperature superconductor created by a South Korean research team, has not shown any key features of superconductivity. The Seoul-based startup Quantum Energy Research Centre, headed by Lee Suk-bae, the first author of the LK-99 research, did not send the superconductor …

Material Made Under High Pressure BaCoO3 Impersonates a Superconductor

Researchers report that a material (hexagonal HP-BaCoO3) made under high-pressure (6 GPa, 1200 °C) and was tested at ambient-pressure. The material (with a 2H crystal structure) has a short intrachain Co–Co distance of about 2.07 Å. The magnetization investigation revealed robust diamagnetic behavior below approximately 130 K when the material was exposed to weak applied …

Another Computational Analysis Paper Says LK99 Can Be a Superconductor and Modification Will Make It Better

Computational theorists believe that the LK99 structure is promising and have discovered ways to improve LK99’s structure. The researchers think it is essential to gain a deeper understanding of the relationships between the LK-99 structure and properties, which could further open up new avenues for even high-temperature superconductivity (HTS). LK-99 was reported to have Tc …
