LK-99 isn’t a superconductor — how science sleuths solved the mystery
LK-99 isn’t a superconductor — how science sleuths solved the mystery
Replications pieced together the puzzle of why the material displayed superconducting-like behaviours.
You're viewing a single thread.
It's not a superconductor, but it is a weirdconductor
Not even a conductor at all, apparently.
https://arxiv.org/abs/2308.06256 this group (mentioned jn the article above) synthesized a fully pure crystal, and found that has a resistance in the several megaohms at room temperature. Just a purple piece of glass, functionally speaking. The thoughts of superconductivity was due to random copper sulfate impurities which DO conduct electricity.
Like this one?
You take that back. Uncanny valley Tom Hanks is a saint (as imagined by an AI)
That really is Tom Hanks from Polar Express I think
Not meant to slander. But, objectively, he was a weird conductor
