Physics Room-temperature superconductors: Here's everything you need to know Truly convenient materials that can conduct electricity perfectly have long been sought after by researchers, but their ...

For the first time in the world, researchers (From Korea University, Sukbae Lee, Ji-Hoon Kim, Hyun-Tak Kim) have succeeded in synthesizing a room-temperature superconductor (Tc≥400 K, 127∘C) working ...

The new material is called LK-99 and has a modified-lead apatite crystal structure allowing it to exhibit superconductivity at room temperature (actually, a little higher than that, at 127 degrees ...

Physics Scientists race to test claimed room-temperature superconductor Researchers are moving quickly to test if a material called LK-99 really is a superconductor at room temperature and pressure.

These properties led the team to claim that LK-99 is indeed a superconductor. “All evidence and explanation lead that LK-99 is the first room-temperature and ambient-pressure superconductor.
