LK-99 has a hexagonal structure slightly modified from [[lead]]‒[[apatite]] and is claimed to function as a superconductor below {{convert|400|K|C F|lk=in}}.{{r|sukbae-2023b}}{{r|sukbae-2023|p=1}}
The material was investigated by a team of Sukbae Lee, Ji-Hoon Kim, ''et al.'' from the [[Korea Institute of Science and Technology]] (KIST).{{r|sukbae-2023|p=1}} {{As of|2023|7|26}} the discovery of LK-99 superconductivity has not been [[peer review]]ed or independently [[Reproducibility|replicated]].{{r|flaherty-20230626}}

== Response ==
{{As of|2023|07|26}}, the measured properties do not prove that LK-99 is a superconductor as they do not fully explain how the LK-99's magnetisation can change, nor its specific heat capacity.{{r|padavic-c-20230726}}
An alternative explanation for LK-99's stated reaction to magnets could be [[diamagnetism]].{{r|ritchie-20230726}}
