Successful room temperature ambient-pressure magnetic levitation of LK-99

https://arxiv.org/abs/2308.01516

Summary: Researchers have successfully synthesized and verified LK-99 crystals, which exhibit room temperature ambient-pressure magnetic levitation. This breakthrough follows Sukbae Lee et al.'s findings on atmospheric superconductivity in LK-99 materials. The development brings the potential for non-contact superconducting magnetic levitation closer to reality.
