After completing the verification of the theory, the natural next step is to build the crystal.
Although with the help of the wave coherence superposition equations, there are still certain complications in building a crystal structure, because multiple situations need to be considered.
The first is the X-ray wavelength.
The wavelength of X-rays is around 0.1nm-10nm, so how to choose the appropriate wavelength is also a problem.
After selecting the wavelength of X-rays, you need to choose what material the crystal should be made of, whether it is silicon, polymer, or something else. Different materials determine different costs, and of course, also determine the final performance.
And these all require certain calculations and discussions.
Of course, these things only need to be calculated on the computer, which does not require much economic cost, only time cost.
These problems required Lin Xiao to find researchers studying materials science again.
Of course, Lin Xiao was not in a hurry to do these things. Instead, he first sorted out the paper on the Lin's wave coherent superposition equations, and attached what he thought was the Lin's wave coherent superposition equation.
The role it can play in national defense.
The wave coherence superposition equations are different from the titanium bonding mechanism he originally discovered. The former can be directly used in the research of national defense, probably like the role of Qian Xuesen's ballistics, while the latter still needs further theoretical research to be able to
When used in applied science, it's like the theory of relativity.
Therefore, he attaches great importance to the wave coherence superposition equation. As for the honors that publishing this paper will bring to him, he does not care. He already has enough honors. Compared with the needs of the country, these things are
You can go back a little bit.
In this way, it took a few days to sort out the paper, and then he called Ma Gaoliang.
Of course, it would be best to ask Ma Gaoliang to handle this matter.
"Director Ma, are you free now?"
"I'm free, what's up with Professor Lin?"
"I need to trouble you with something. Old place, when do you think is the best time to go there today?"
Ma Gaoliang was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes lit up.
Lin Xiao took the initiative to meet with him. Is this a sign of good things?
I remember that the last time Lin Xiao approached him, he asked him to help apply for the polishing disk material. Now, the new polishing disk directly helped their silicon wafer production speed catch up with the world's top.
If you take the initiative to find him now, could there be any good things happening?
So he immediately said: "Yes, yes, of course, right now, what do you think?"
Originally, he had a department meeting later, but compared to meeting Lin Xiao, there was no need to attend this meeting.
"Okay, let's do it now."
"Okay! Old place, I'll be there soon. By the way," Ma Gaoliang said: "Professor Lin, is there anything good going on? Can you tell me about it?"
Lin Xiao smiled and said: "Yes, you can just look forward to it later."
"okay."
After talking over there, Lin Xiao heard Ma Gaoliang's voice calling his secretary to prepare the car.
He shook his head with a smile. Director Ma was a high-ranking official after all, but sometimes he didn't act like a real ministerial boss.
Then he said no more, took the hard copy of his thesis, and left here, heading to the old place, that is, the tea restaurant with an official background.
…
Flower Duet.
It's the name of that tea restaurant.
In the corner of the restaurant, Lin Xiao and Ma Gaoliang sat face to face, holding a pot of Dahongpao and ordering a few more meals.
Lin Xiao directly handed the portfolio to Ma Gaoliang and said, "This is it."
Ma Gaoliang quickly took the file bag and asked, "What's in it?"
"A formula."
Lin Xiao replied with a smile.
Ma Gaoliang thought about it in his mind, and finally asked cautiously: "Is it the solution to the P=NP problem?"
Lin Xiao: "...why do you think this is the case?"
"If this is solved, it will be of great help to us in cracking foreign cryptography systems. You should know that if P=NP is solved, our existing cryptography will basically cease to exist, right? Unless quantum encryption is developed."
Lin Xiao helplessly spread his hands and said, "Okay, you have a very rich imagination, but unfortunately you don't."
"That is to prove the existence and smoothness of the solution to the N-S equation?"
"No." Lin Xiao said, "Okay, Director Ma, what I've been studying recently is semiconductors and photolithography machines, not the things you mentioned."
"The formula I developed is strictly a system of equations, which can accelerate our research on lithography machines extremely quickly."
"In addition, military researchers may also be very interested in seeing my system of equations.",
Ma Gaoliang's eyes suddenly lit up: "Military? You mean this system of equations can..."
"Yes, so I hope you will give this information to military researchers for a look." Lin Xiao said: "I personally think that this system of equations is of great help to our military technology, so do I need to
This result is kept confidential and depends on your opinions."
Hearing what Lin Xiao said, Ma Gaoliang was immediately in awe: "I understand, thank you, Professor Lin."
Lin Xiao smiled and waved his hand, "I have nothing to thank you for. I would rather hear the news that the country needs my equation set."
"good."
Ma Gaodian nodded, accepted the file bag, and then asked: "Then which professional is best to give this to?"
Lin Xiao thought for a while and said: "Those who study waves, those who work on radar, and those who work on stealth coating materials can do it."
"Stealth coating material?"
Ma Gaoliang's eyes suddenly widened.
Could it be that Lin Xiao's research could also help in the development of stealth coating materials?
Stealth coating materials are definitely one of the most important materials in national defense technology.
It is so famous that countless Chinese military fans are wondering how a B2 bomber that came back can be known as a ghost in the sky because of its extremely strong stealth effect and various stealth coatings on it, making it fly
In the process, it will be difficult for the radar to achieve early warning, and by the time the human eye can see it, it has completed bombing the target.
Another example is China's J-20. During the development process, the first thing that stumped the designers was the engine, and the second was the stealth material.
The engine allows the J-20 to achieve the maneuverability of a fifth-generation fighter, while the stealth material gives the J-20 the stealth performance required by a fifth-generation fighter.
So when Ma Gaoliang heard about stealth coating materials, his whole body became as sensitive as if he had been scratched.
Seeing Ma Gaoliang like this, Lin Xiao smiled and said: "Yes, it is the invisibility material. I won't tell you the details. If you are interested, you can look back for yourself."
"Forget it, I'm afraid I don't understand." Ma Gaoliang waved his hands repeatedly: "I don't even know what P=NP is and what the Navier-Stokes equation is. I just know what's the use of solving these problems."
Lin Xiao smiled and said: "It's enough to know what's the use of solving them."
"That's right." Ma Gaoliang smiled and nodded, then picked up the teacup and said, "Drink tea, drink tea."
Lin Xiao also raised his teacup and drank.
After drinking, Ma Gaoliang looked curious again and asked: "By the way, have you received any calls recently?"
"Phone? What phone?" Lin Xiao was stunned.
"The Nobel Prize." Ma Gaoliang said, "It's already early October, is the Nobel Prize list about to be announced?"
Lin Xiao shook his head: "I still hope it won't be sent to me."
"Why?"
"We have learned our lesson last time, so let's leave the prize to those who can receive it."
Lin Xiao looked unconcerned and even a little cold.
Philip Meng's death has greatly alerted him, so he will not go to any enemy's territory until the world is truly peaceful.
Looking at Lin Xiao's appearance, Ma Gaodian nodded and sighed: "The enemies are too shameless, and we are not strong enough."
Lin Xiao shook his head and said nothing.
At this time, Ma Gaoliang said again: "However, we will give you whatever our country can give you."
"There will be a meeting on November 3rd. You must come to attend."
"November 3rd?" Lin Xiao was stunned.
"Yeah." Ma Gaoliang smiled and said, "The National Science and Technology Awards Conference will be held on November 3."
"You will always come to participate in this, right?"
Hearing this, Lin Xiao smiled: "Of course."
…
After saying goodbye to Ma Gaoliang, Lin Xiao returned to Yanbei Garden.
In the next few days, several experts in computational materials science need to be called to assist him in the subsequent research on the crystal structure and determination of the crystal material.
It would be a bit troublesome for him alone.
This matter is left to other people in the research institute to take charge. There are still not enough people in their research institute. After all, most of them are in different majors, and there are also huge barriers between different majors.
Of course, with the attraction of Dingguang Research Institute, he believed that it would be very easy to find someone.
After explaining the matter, he had nothing to do for the time being, and then he checked his mailbox regularly.
It just so happened that the recent period of time was when various universities recommended graduate students who were exempted from examinations. The school seemed to have sent him some lists and resumes of undergraduate students who wanted to apply for his graduate studies, asking him to take a look and screen them when the time came.
However, when he opened his mailbox, he found that a familiar mailbox had sent him an email a few days ago.
International Mathematical Union.
He was stunned for a moment, and then realized that next year, it would be time for the new International Congress of Mathematicians to be held.
Time flies so fast, four years have passed like this.
Next year's International Congress of Mathematicians will be held in Russia, going to the territory of a good brother country. He is quite relieved and has no grudges in his heart.
At this time, there is no need to talk about the idea that people who are not of our race must have different hearts, or that the friendship between the two countries is based on the fact that enemies are friends.
Anyway, he just needs to know that he can go to Russia safely and come back safely.
At the same time, as long as the Ministry of Foreign Affairs approves it, he will certainly not miss this grand gathering of international mathematicians.
However, the International Congress of Mathematicians sent him an email, probably to invite him to give a report, right?
I opened the email and looked at it, and sure enough it was true.
And not surprisingly the one hour report.
The last time he was invited there, it was just a 45-minute report, but it was accidentally upgraded to a one-hour report.
But this time, it was a very formal invitation to give a one-hour plenary meeting report.
The official start time of the conference is July 4, 2022, which means there are about nine months left. However, according to the requirements of the conference, he needs to submit the manuscript for the report three months in advance.
So, he only has six months at most to prepare.
But what should I say in the report?
Lin Xiao couldn't help but think about it.
Of course, you don’t have to talk about those awesome-sounding theories. You can just talk about your views on the future development of mathematics. In fact, very few people publish new results at mathematician conferences. Basically, they all
It's just a retelling of something from the past.
What's more, Lin Xiao basically focuses on the lithography machine now, so how can he have time to develop new things?
He shook his head and stopped thinking about it. If it didn't work, he just took out the submodular form and explained it.
Now, it's better not to worry too much.
Then, I closed the email, which also said that an invitation letter would be sent to him later, so there was no need to worry about these things.
Next he looked at another email, which was the information and resume of postgraduate students sent to him by the school.
Basically, postgraduate students will enroll in the second half of next year, so there is still nearly a year. In fact, many of them participated in the summer camp prepared by Peking University during the summer vacation. During that time, he also went to the summer camp
He taught a few classes to those students, but since he basically went to one class and then left, and did not stay there to interact with the students, he didn't know many students.
After downloading the attachment, I opened it and found that it actually contained the resumes of twenty postgraduate students.
"Damn, why are there so many?"
Looking at the names of so many students, he couldn't help but complain.
There seem to be only about thirty graduate students in basic mathematics in their mathematics department, right?
He couldn't help but take out his cell phone and called Professor Zhou Wu, the head of their department.
It was Professor Zhou who had a good relationship with him back then. He was still the deputy director at the time and has now been officially promoted to director.
"Director Zhou, why did you send me a list of twenty students? I remember our department only recruited more than thirty this year, right?"
"Professor Lin, don't be too much. We have screened this before sending it to you. We have collected more than thirty prospective tutor lists for postgraduate students, and thirty of them have your name filled in.
The twenty we selected are basically the ones who performed relatively well."
Lin Xiao: "...Okay."
It seems that he is quite charming.
"Well, please take a closer look. Your quota is for one doctor and two masters. You should also know this."
"knew."
"OK."
After hanging up the phone, he looked at the lists.
