Synthesis and characteristion of Li(x)BC-hole doping does not induce superconductivity.
The synthesis of Li(x)BC (x > 0.5) by high temperature Li deintercalation from LiBC is demonstrated by refinement of X-ray and neutron powder diffraction data--contrary to theoretical expectation no superconductivity above 2K is observed in these materials.
