*** Successful growth and room temperature ambient-pressure magnetic levitation of LK-99
*** Recently, Sukbae Lee et al. reported inspiring experimental findings on the
atmospheric superconductivity of a modified lead apatite crystal (LK-99) at
room temperature (10.6111/JKCGCT.2023.33.2.061, arXiv: 2307.12008, arXiv:
2307.12037). They claimed that the synthesized LK-99 materials exhibit the
Meissner levitation phenomenon of superconductors and have a superconducting
transition temperature (Tc) higher than 400 K. Here, for the first time, we
successfully verify and synthesize the LK-99 crystals which can be magnetically
levitated with larger levitated angle than Sukbae Lee’s sample at room
temperature. It is expected to realize the true potential of room temperature,
non-contact superconducting magnetic levitation in near future.

(*4cfb807c*):: I have engaged the NYLAUG crew on Element with a write up about LK-99, and the fact that 3 replications have occurred this week + the 2 mentions of levitative properties under current
(*4cfb807c*):: That channel is 100s of 3d gun hackers internationally, I think it’s insatiable to pursue civilian diy replication

Found there process really fascinating, apparently they create L-99 powder, sort it by meissner effect, then press the "high meissner effect" powder together

(*4cfb807c*):: So at least 1 citizen report of replication

(*4cfb807c*):: A kiln that can reach 925 of was used, and the useable crystal lattice is a small percentage of the final produce
(*4cfb807c*):: These methods seem appropriate for replication, but a fabrication process for getting into manufacture ready format is still to be explored
(*4cfb807c*):: The material is relatively abundant, mixture and assembly processes are standard, high heat for crystal lattice formation. So maybe an improved format for feeding into the kiln, that could foster consistent crystal lattice growth in a predicable and harvestable way
