The Quantum Energy Research Centre (Q-Centre) patent from the LK99 korean researchers provides more detailed measurements, evidence and process description about the micron(s) thick thin film, which is nearly half superconductive material. It exhibits superconductive properties with very low resistance in Ohmcm and has three critical temperatures of Tc, I~50C, II~80C, III~125C but only evidence for the first two in thin film. It involves Silicon in the mixture, requires doping and defects to make it into a superconductor, and has diamagnetism and ferromagnetism, and Meissner effect below Tc I, II.

The original LK99 room temperature superconducting company, Q-Centre, has information in their patent. They provide more detailed measurements, evidence and process description. They say the micron(s) thick thin film is nearly half superconductive material. In 2008, the LK99 korean researchers founded the Quantum Energy Research Centre (퀀텀 에너지연구소; also known as Q-Centre) with other researchers from Korea University. Lee would later become CEO of Q-Centre, and Kim would become director of research and development. The Administrative reporting shows that the written submissions of the patent were made as late as August 2, 2023.In the patent, they show and state there is superconducting levels of low resistance. The resistivity of LK-99 was 1/10,000 to 1/100,000 of copper. For Example 4, the grains of the solid phase reaction were processed into a square shape and the resistance change according to the temperature change (304K ~ 382K) was measured using equipment (Power (voltage/current) Source KEITHLEY 228A, Sensitive Digital Voltmeter KEITHLEY 182, Probe Method: Measured using the 4-probe method) and the results are shown in FIG. 29. Referring to this, it can be seen that the ceramic compound according to the present invention exhibits superconductive properties. In addition, FIG. 42 is a photograph of an experiment in which resistance was measured in real time for Example 4, and the measured resistance was approximately 10^-12 Ohms per centimeter. Very low resistance in Ohmcm. Thanks to twitter user @8teAPi for the info on the patent info.

Solid State Synthesis .

– They’ve described this before, but now include a little Silicon in the mixture. But they don’t say how the Si got in there! .

– They claim they get 48.9% lead apatite which is superconductive, with two other lead compounds (40%) and Copper compounds (10%).

– However lead apatite itself is an insulator, they say they need doping and defects to make it into a superconductor .

– I am still not clear where in the solid state process the superconductor emerges.

For both methods .

– They give detailed measurement for IV curves, showing there is superconducting low resistance .

– They report three critical temperature of Tc, I~50C, II~80C, III~125C but found only evidence for the first two in thin film.

– They say there is diamagnetism and ferromagnetism, and Meissner effect below Tc I, II .

– They provide the method to measure the superconducting features .

– Scanning Electron Microscope pictures of all the important phases.
