contents By codoping sulfur and copper into lead apatite, the crystal grains are directionally stacked and the room-temperature resistivity is reduced from insulating to $2\times10^{-5}~Ω\cdot$m. The resistance-temperature curve exhibits a nearly linear relationship at low temperature suggesting the presence of strange-metal phase, and a second-order phase transition is then observed at around 230~K during cooling the samples. A possible Meissner effect is present in dc magnetic measurements. Further hydrothermal lead-free synthesis results in smaller resistance and stronger diamagnetism, demonstrating the essential component might be sulfur-substituted copper apatite and the alkalis matter as well. A clear pathway towards superconductivity in this material is subsequently benchmarked.
