Academician Pan, who was sipping a bowl of Taihe Ban Mian, took a sip and quickly swallowed half of the noodles. He puffed out his cheeks while chewing and asked Xu Yun in front of him:
"Xiao Xu, you said you want to subcontract part of the research project on solitary point particles?"
Xu Yun nodded and handed over the sketch he had originally prepared:
"Well, look at this."
Mentioned earlier.
Xu Yun's idea is actually very simple:
Relying on the static mass-free characteristics of solitary point particles, the ultra-cold chain rubidium atoms are replaced to achieve a higher-precision measurement feedback effect.
Therefore, Academician Pan just took a few glances and understood all Xu Yun's thoughts and put them aside.
Tuk-tuk-tuk——
I saw Academician Pan's index finger tapping rhythmically on the table, and his whole face looked thoughtful.
A few seconds later.
He raised his head and looked at Xu Yun, thinking carefully.
"Xiao Xu, judging from the drawings, there is indeed no big problem with your idea."
"But you should know that whether a project is approved or not cannot be determined by just two words, the idea. It needs to be customized with more comprehensive and feasible steps."
"For example, let me ask you, how are you going to make the isolated point particles form a quantum state?"
Academician Pan's expression was solemn, and he had no intention of letting Xu Yun go and take care of his disciples.
Still taking the rubidium atom as an example.
The first time that rubidium atoms obtained a Bose-Einstein condensate can be traced back to 1995, when Wolfgang Ketterley of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Eric Cornell of the University of Colorado Boulder worked on 170n
This achievement was achieved at low temperatures.
since then.
Rubidium atoms have just begun to be widely used in laboratories, and 15 years later they successfully left the laboratory and appeared on the gravity gradiometer.
but……
Behind such a simple description lies the sweat of countless predecessors and the extremely high difficulty of preparation.
This is true for rubidium atoms, and the same is true for solitary point particles.
If the solitary point particle wants to replace the rubidium atom in the gravity gradiometer...or to put it bluntly, in order for the solitary point particle to have the possibility of adapting to the gravity gradiometer, Xu Yun must solve a most basic problem:
How to create a quantum state like rubidium atoms?
If you can't do this, then everything is just talk.
Academician Pan would never agree to Xu Yun's project.
In other words...
This question raised by Academician Pan can be regarded as an "interview" to a certain extent.
"Formation of quantum state?"
After Xu Yun and Zhao Zhengguo discussed the idea of establishing the project yesterday, he thought about the practical aspects at night.
Although there are still many problems with no results, there are still some solutions to the threshold that must be crossed in the quantum state:
"Teacher, this is what I think."
"We can put a Zeeman reducer on the device and make a resonant transition with the particle through a counter-propagating laser beam."
"In this way, suitable solitary point particles can be preliminarily screened out and its particle number distribution at each energy level can be determined."
"Then according to Bose's statistical theory, after we know the particle number distribution of each energy level, we can use the density of states to convert the sum into an integral to calculate the total number of particles."
"Then there's...orbital coupling."
"At present, we have achieved certain results in one-dimensional artificial spin-orbit coupling in China, so if we can complete the spin-orbit coupling of isolated point ions in more than two dimensions, I think it should not be a problem to complete the quantum state."
The frequency of Academician Pan's fingers tapping on the table gradually slowed down, and he finally fell into deep thought.
Mentioned earlier.
The so-called Bose-Einstein condensation is the sudden "condensation" of atoms in different states into the same ground state.
And this ground state is actually a quantum state.
Therefore, a lot of the physical research on ultra-cold atoms belongs to quantum... or Academician Pan's research field.
(This chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 355 An unexpected direction
For example, the spin-orbit coupling mentioned by Xu Yun.
Achieving artificial spin-orbit coupling in ultracold atoms and studying novel quantum states is one of the most important cutting-edge topics in ultracold atomic physics.
In 2016.
HKUST once cooperated with the Peking University theoretical group to propose and construct a two-dimensional Raman coupled optical lattice, realizing a two-dimensional spin-orbit coupled topological quantum gas.
Not long ago.
Professor Liu Xiongjun of the Center for Physics and Materials of Peking University also proposed a new Raman optical lattice scheme based on three-dimensional spin-orbit coupling and ideal Weyl semimetal based on the original two-dimensional system, and published it in "Science" ()
anyway.
Academician Pan is also the corresponding author of that paper.
So he knew very well...
The idea mentioned by Xu Yun is indeed quite feasible.
So he and Zhao Zhengguo looked at each other and asked Xu Yun again:
"Xiao Xu, how many tasks do you want to subcontract this time?"
Xu Yun scratched his hair twice, lowered his eyelids, and said thoughtfully:
"Let's set up two topics, one is the ground state processing of isolated point particles, and the other is the application of the measurement module of isolated point particles."
"In this way, even if I encounter the worst situation, I can at least ensure that the first project can be completed smoothly and the whole army will not be wiped out."
Zhao Zhengguo, who was listening in, nodded slightly.
Project subcontracting has always been a practice that is prone to criticism.
Especially when the subcontractor is still his own student, there will be no small amount of speculation, even assumptions, and slander from people inside and outside the group.
Although neither Academician Pan nor Zhao Zhengguo paid much attention to these criticisms.
But if there is an opportunity to prove their "innocence", they will naturally not refuse it.
Xu Yun now divides the project into two parts, the former is relatively easy and the latter is more difficult.
Thus.
Even if Xu Yun only breaks through the first topic, he can still stop many people's mouths:
The "simpleness" of the ground state processing of isolated point particles is relative. If this technology can really be realized, Xu Yun will definitely be able to get into the journals of the Second District of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! A master's degree subcontracted a certain project, and the results were sent to the second area thesis. Even if it is submitted to the Kingdom of Light, it is a truly excellent result.
However, Academician Pan's face was still calm at this time, and he could not see the joy or anger in his heart, but he continued to ask:
“What about equipment and funding?”
Xu Yun suddenly turned pale.
The main event is here.
I saw him slapping his chest heavily with an expression like "Our company is rich":
"Teacher, you can rest assured about the funding. There is no need to submit the first batch. We at Huadun Biotech can pay for this part of the money ourselves."
"In addition, if there are additional work losses or electricity expenses, we will also cover them all. If necessary, we can even pay from my personal account."
However, after being so arrogant for two seconds, Xu Yun's eyes became a little weak:
"As for the equipment...well...it might cost a little over 100 million."
Academician Pan didn't notice anything unusual in Xu Yun's words, so he continued:
"Say it."
Xu Yun looked at his teacher hesitantly, then finally got worried and said:
"The Zeeman reducer is definitely needed, and the magneto-optical trap is also indispensable..."
Academician Pan glanced at Xu Yun who closed his mouth again:
"Finished?"
"Well, that's pretty much it."
""
The muscles on Academician Pan's face twitched several times, and a rare hint of speechlessness appeared on his normally gentle face:
"How about Xiao Xu, the school and I make a suggestion and transfer the ownership of the Synchrotron Radiation Center to you? It will be done within three days!"
(This chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 355 An unexpected direction
Xu Yun subconsciously wanted to reply that it did not include holidays, but considering that saying that might cause his tutor to clean up the family on the spot, he obediently lowered his head:
"Teacher, how about I leave it to you to decide on the equipment?"
"give it to me?"
Academician Pan sneered and saw through Xu Yun's little idea of retreating in order to advance:
"Okay, how about I arrange a refrigerator for you?"
"After all, they are all for cooling. There is only two numbers difference between minus 270 degrees and minus 2 degrees. How about giving you a diesel generator - I pay for it myself?"
Xu Yun:
"..."
Then Academician Pan took another sip of Ban Mian, frowned and shook his head:
"Hey, just talking to you makes my face look lumpy."
"Forget it, I won't tease you anymore. The equipment will be reduced to 60% according to your needs. Is that okay?"
Xu Yun, who was hanging his head, was stunned when he heard this.
Cut to 60%?
Oh my god!
To know.
Many of the equipment he just proposed are among the major national scientific research instrument development projects!
He was just talking casually with the idea of getting a few hits if there are jujubes or not. In fact, if 30% can be approved by Academician Pan, it would be very good.
After all, in terms of status, Academician Pan can currently only be regarded as the leader in quantum encrypted communications in China.
Even if the word "encryption" is removed, he may not be able to rank first.
This is true in the field of communications, let alone the world of quantum physics or theoretical physics.
So for Academician Pan.
There is no problem in demarcating project subcontractors, but it may not be so easy when it comes to the allocation of some instruments.
This is the teacher...
And just when Xu Yun was secretly moved, Academician Pan's voice came to his ears:
"Of course, Xiao Xu, after giving you such a large discount, shouldn't the burden on your shoulders also be increased?"
Xu Yun"..."
Wait, what about the deep relationship between master and disciple?
Then, without waiting for Xu Yun's reply, Academician Pan continued:
"The way I see it, Xiao Xu, the structural fixation of isolated point particles, potential barrier drawing, polaritons, Gaussian Bose sampling, and spatial coherence are all left to you - of course, the results will also be obtained using
What's your name?"
"..."
Looking at Academician Pan with an old fox expression on his face, a cold sweat broke out on Xu Yun's face:
"Teacher, do you think too highly of me?"
Xu Yun's expression this time was not fake, he was really dumbfounded.
Academician Pan's previous structural fixation and potential barrier drawing were okay, but the next three starting from polaritons are a bit outrageous...
Such as polaritons.
Excitons conceptually refer to some quasiparticles abstracted from original excitations.
Most of the new quasiparticles produced through coupling are named polaritons.
For example, the phonon polariton generated by the coupling of photons and phonons,
Exciton polaritons produced by coupling of photons and excitons,
Surface plasmon polaritons generated by the coupling of photons and surface plasmons, etc...
If a photon can really couple with a solitary point particle, then it will produce a solitary point polariton.
The concept is not difficult to understand, but in practice...
Put it this way.
This is a research project at the level of academicians of the Academy of Sciences—the kind that academicians personally carry out.
The following Gaussian Bose sampling and spatial coherence are almost the same.
As for Xu Yun’s ability...
Mentioned earlier.
After using Mavericks' thinking role card.
Xu Yun's abilities have probably reached the level of professors in unpopular majors and associate professors in popular majors in 211 colleges.
Now I have finished the wheat copy.
Xu Yun was roughly raised to the level of an ordinary professor through Gauss's teachings and daily discussions with Xiaomai, Lao Tang and others.
In addition, he still has some combinations of thinking cards that he has not used (this chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 355 An unexpected direction
Theoretically, there is some room for improvement.
But...Xu Yun can guarantee it.
Even if he uses up all the thinking cards, his ability cannot reach the level of an academician - except for someone like Xie from Tobacco.
Therefore, he was not being modest at all. At this time, Xu Yun really had the urge to ask Academician Pan to recruit another Gao Ming:
"Teacher, how about..."
As a result, before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Academician Pan with a smile:
"Xiao Xu, why are you in such a hurry? I didn't ask you to do this alone."
"Don't forget, there is a talented person in this field at HKUST who has nothing to do recently."
"A capable person?"
There was a hint of astonishment on Xu Yun's face, and the words he originally wanted to refuse were stuck in his throat.
But soon.
A flash of lightning flashed in his mind:
"Teacher, you mean..."
Academician Pan nodded slightly.
"That's right, it's Xiao Lu."
