Hearing these words with some hesitation, Xu Chuan couldn't help but smile.
It is normal for Gong Zheng to react first. His research field is how to improve superconducting materials, and he has been exposed to many more superconducting effects and physical effects than the other two.
But what he didn't expect was that he was the director of a large scientific research institution, and his research was still in the scientific field, and he would actually say something like "This is not scientific."
Obviously, his application of the electron delocalization effect to inorganic materials such as metallic materials and superconductors broke Gong Zheng's understanding of the scope of his knowledge.
But cognition is something that always needs to be broken and rebuilt.
At the earliest times, the physics community believed that the earth was the center of the universe and that the sun revolved around the earth.
As science develops, cognition will change accordingly.
Those who cannot keep up will end up sooner or later.
"Condensed Matter Electron Localized Structure Theory" brings not only the mechanism of room temperature superconducting materials, but also more.
For example, the local electron delocalization effect of inorganic materials and metallic materials is a research that breaks the inherent cognition of the materials community.
But nothing is unscientific, it’s just that no scientific explanation has been found yet.
...
Smiling, Xu Chuan explained: "Indeed, the electron delocalization effect is not strictly a theory of physics. It is a concept in chemistry and organic chemistry, and it basically only exists in organic chemical materials."
"For example, the ethylene structure and butadiene structure mentioned by Gong Zheng have localized motion and delocalized phenomena."
"This is caused by the short-range interaction between electron spins, which creates a spin electric field whose strength depends on the distance between the two electrons."
"As the distance between electrons decreases, the strength of this spin electric field increases, which can have a significant impact on the electronic properties of organic molecules..."
In the laboratory, Xu Chuan softly explained the 'hidden' knowledge in "Condensed Matter Electron Localized Structure Theory".
Although these things are common knowledge in the organic chemistry community, few scholars in the physics community pay attention to them.
And he doesn't mind teaching the knowledge in his mind, because cutting-edge theories must be inherited, applied and carried forward by someone.
In the laboratory, Fan Pengyue and the other four listened carefully.
No matter who you are, it is rare to be able to obtain the teachings of the person in front of you, especially the knowledge in the cutting-edge fields of materials science and physics.
"But the electron delocalization effect, how to explain the experimental data of this room temperature superconducting material?"
In the laboratory, Gong Zheng asked with a frown.
Although he has been exposed to various superconducting effects and physical effects before several others, and he also knows the electron delocalization effect, but after all, it is not his own professional field, and his understanding is only superficial.
Xu Chuan smiled and mentioned two words.
"Cluster!"
"Cluster?"
Hearing these two words, Gong Zheng cast a look of surprise and confusion. This is a scale concept in nanomaterials. He could not combine it with the electron delocalization effect.
Xu Chuan smiled and nodded, but did not continue to explain.
Scientific research involves "research" and requires in-depth and detailed thinking and exploration.
Although he did have the idea of training these three people, he had explained enough and always left something for them to think about.
Seeing that Xu Chuan did not continue to elaborate, the three of them understood that the key to this was here, and they frowned and thought.
Xu Chuan didn't pay too much attention and allowed the three of them to think in the laboratory while he sat back in front of the computer and flipped through the test data of copper oxide-based chromium-silver system room-temperature superconducting materials.
"Academician Xu, can I apply to read the "Condensed Matter Electron Localized Structure Theory" you mentioned?"
In the laboratory, Min Fu, who had been silent for a long time, came over and asked in a low voice, with some longing in his eyes.
The communication and discussion between the four of them just now did not avoid him, but he had not read the paper and listened with only a half-understanding.
Although the current paper is definitely still confidential and only a few people know about it, it is a bit too much for him to make this request.
But as a physicist and materials scientist, as well as a scholar, how can I not be eager for this kind of cutting-edge theory?
Min Fu knew very well that what they were communicating was a theory written by the academician Xu in front of him, and it should be related to the room temperature superconducting materials he was testing.
There is even a high probability that this room temperature superconducting material was developed based on that theory.
Xu Chuan turned his head and glanced at Min Fu, with some surprise in his eyes, and smiled. He nodded and said: "Okay, after the experiment is over, you can ask Fan Pengyue to get a copy. You can read it and study it, but you can't spread it out for the time being.
."
The opportunity was earned by himself. If Min Fu hadn't taken the initiative, he probably wouldn't have sent the paper to him.
Because his current qualifications are not enough.
But since Min Fu took the initiative, Xu Chuan was still willing to give him a chance.
Hearing Xu Chuan's permission, Min Fu's face suddenly showed excitement. Before he could say his thanks, other people's voices came from the laboratory.
"I see!"
In the laboratory, Song Wenbai's excited voice sounded. Xu Chuan put down the mouse, turned around and said with a smile: "You understand something, please tell me."
Taking a deep breath, Song Wenbai said excitedly: "Cluster! It's a cluster!"
"The unique electronic structure of the cluster causes a junction effect in the material, which involves all atoms on the surface and inside the material, resulting in the enrichment of active sites and improvement in catalytic activity."
"Whereas electron transfer in heterojunctions usually occurs near the interface, electrons can be shared equally between directly connected identical clusters. For this reason, large-scale electron delocalization can be achieved in cluster structures with high structural order.
Realized. And will show a high degree of stability to electron transfer, their chemical and electronic properties are close to those of atoms..."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Therefore, theoretically speaking, the energy level required to maintain electron delocalization is fixed under normal circumstances."
"However, considering the particularity of room temperature superconducting materials and thermal effects, the maintenance energy level will change to varying degrees at different temperatures."
"Correspondingly, the pressure to maintain room temperature superconductivity does not require a large amount of external energy to supplement conventional low-temperature or high-temperature superconducting materials!"
"This just explains the abnormal experimental data of this room-temperature superconducting material. It does not violate the laws of thermodynamics or physics."
"This is not unscientific!"
"On the contrary, it's very scientific! We just haven't thought about it before."
Xu Chuan smiled and clapped, praising: "Well explained, this is indeed the core of room temperature superconductivity."
Song Wenbai's face was flushed. He was both excited to discover the truth and ashamed of facing Xu Chuan's praise.
The "Condensed Matter Electron Localization Structure Theory" and the experimental data of room temperature superconducting materials were all placed in front of him, but he could not find the core foundation.
After Xu Chuan’s explanation and key points, I thought hard for a long time before I came up with this.
However, the person in front of me had completely clarified all the theories before the room-temperature superconducting materials were synthesized, and also completely prepared room-temperature superconducting materials based on them.
Although it was not the first time that he knew that there was a gap between people, it was the first time that he faced the distance between two people.
It's so different that I can't even describe it.
...
In the laboratory, the testing of copper oxide-based chromium-silver system room temperature superconducting materials continues. Min Fu is doing the experiment, and the other three people are watching and working on it, hoping to obtain first-hand data.
As for Xu Chuan, he no longer paid attention to this matter. He returned to his laboratory and prepared to continue preparing the remaining materials.
The afternoon passed quickly. After processing the remaining materials, Xu Chuan took off his white coat and came to Fan Pengyue's office.
Because he has to deal with the work of the entire institute, Brother Fan cannot devote all his energy to the follow-up testing and research of room temperature superconducting materials like the other two. He is currently processing work documents in the office.
"Have you finished your work there?"
Seeing Xu Chuan come in, Fan Pengyue said hello with a smile, put down the pen in his hand, and stood up to make tea.
Xu Chuan nodded and said: "Well, a total of four pieces of materials passed the most basic superconducting test and reached the standard. Please sort out the test data as soon as possible. I can use it."
Fan Pengyue said with a smile: "Don't worry, most of the tests should be completed in about two days. I will keep an eye on it."
The current Sichuan-Hai Institute of Materials Research is no longer the place where it used to study high-temperature superconducting materials. The scale has increased more than ten times.
At that time, the high-temperature copper-carbon-silver composite superconducting material developed by Xu Chuan still needed the help of the laboratory at NTU to complete the testing.
Now, it is no exaggeration to say that they have the most detailed superconducting research equipment among domestic private enterprise laboratories.
Regarding the purchase of experimental equipment, the institute has invested hundreds of millions of dollars in purchasing experimental equipment every year over the past six or seven years.
Taking the tea cup, Xu Chuan nodded and said with a smile: "After the superconductivity test experiment is completed, the main goal of the following research institute is optimization."
"The material currently being developed still has some limitations. You should know what to do next."
Fan Pengyue was not surprised and nodded: "I will arrange this."
Room-temperature superconductivity at a pressure of 318.651kPa, if placed in the hands of other researchers, would definitely be an extremely satisfactory research result.
Room-temperature superconducting materials at three standard atmospheric pressures already have great application value.
But in the eyes of his junior brother, it cannot be said that he is dissatisfied, it can only be said that it is not perfect, and there are still many flaws that need to be optimized.
After all, his goal is to develop standard room-temperature superconducting materials.
After discussing the follow-up arrangements, Fan Pengyue took a sip of tea to moisten his throat and asked:
"What do you think about the commercial arrangement for this material? Should you continue to cooperate with Western Superconducting Group like the last time on the high-temperature copper-carbon-silver composite material, or should you build your own factory to produce it?"
After a slight pause, he continued: "I suggest building a factory to produce it yourself. You know, this is room temperature superconducting material."
Needless to say, the importance of room temperature superconducting materials.
Even room-temperature superconductivity achieved at three standard atmospheric pressures, and even various experimental data from its subsequent tests, such as critical current intensity, critical current density, critical magnetic field intensity, etc., have determined that this material cannot be patented.
Application route.
Its research value and application value are unparalleled.
The only route is to build factories and produce domestically.
What needs to be considered is whether to continue to cooperate with domestic superconducting material manufacturers or build a factory of our own.
In this regard, he prefers to research and produce his own construction projects.
Because this is a room temperature superconducting material, not a high temperature superconducting material.
The application of the latter is relatively limited, while the former, although currently still limited by three standard atmospheric pressures, is not difficult to achieve. It can be said that it can be applied in most fields.
Its value and market are greater than high-temperature superconducting materials.
Hearing this question, Xu Chuan thought for a while and said: "I'm not sure yet."
"Um?"
"Because of its industrialization, that is, the difficulty of mass production, according to my speculation, it will be much greater than high-temperature copper-carbon-silver composite materials."
Xu Chuan frowned and said: "Its industrialization may require the help of the entire industry, at least the domestic industry."
The industrialization difficulty of copper oxide-based chromium-silver series room-temperature superconducting materials is the most difficult of all materials he has ever seen.
Laboratory preparation and industrial preparation are two completely different concepts.
Maybe very small batch production is possible, but for large-scale production, it is impossible for the industry to produce it according to his method of laboratory preparation. The investment is too high, and the price of the produced materials will skyrocket.
Hearing this, Fan Pengyue frowned and said, "If you say it's difficult, then I'm afraid this matter will be a big trouble."
"but.....
After a twist, he continued: "This is room-temperature superconducting material. The industry cannot give up. Even if we can't think of a way, the industry will help us find a way. If there is really no way, the higher-ups may help promote it."
one time."
Xu Chuan smiled and said: "These are things that will happen later, so don't worry too much for the time being."
Fan Pengyue smiled and said: "Yes."
After a slight pause, he looked at Xu Chuan and said with emotion: "This time the material world, no, the whole world will explode, room temperature superconducting materials at three standard atmospheres."
"As long as it goes out in public, everyone will go crazy."
"Especially since the last time the KL-99 materials in South Korea were shot to death with your own hands."
Having said this, Fan Pengyue suddenly remembered another thing and asked excitedly: "By the way, have you decided on a name for this material?"
"I suggest you pick one that's more awesome! If you can't think of it, I can provide it!"
"Such as era metal, superconducting crystal glow, star gold..."
The corners of Xu Chuan's mouth twitched and he glanced at Senior Brother Fan: "Have you read too many fantasy novels?"
Fan Pengyue said confidently: "I think these names are definitely better than the names you chose!"
Xu Chuan glanced at him and said, "Stop thinking about it, I've already thought of the name."
"what is it call?"
"Copper oxide-based chromium-silver room temperature superconducting materials."
Fan Pengyue: "..."
Fuck, it's not as good as his Era Metal, Superconducting Crystal Glory, Star Gold, etc., at least they sound cool!
Copper oxide-based chromium-silver room temperature superconducting material?
What is the naming method for basic elements?
Is it worthy of this great breakthrough of room temperature superconducting materials?
