Zhou Xing had no way of knowing what happened at home. Even if he knew, he had no time to be distracted at this time. The Boai condensed matter experiment was already in progress and Zhou Xing could not be allowed to leave at this time.
Everyone in the laboratory was staring intently at the display interface of the scanning tunneling microscope.
The three-dimensional dynamic interface presents a microscopic atomic world. The spherical atomic clusters are imprisoned by the magneto-optical field composed of magnetic fields and lasers. All atoms in the atomic clusters form a Boehrig condensed state.
After a busy day, the experiment finally met the requirements specified by Zhou Xing. The next step was to test the ability of Boai condensed metal atoms to store data.
Zhao Guoliang looked at the operator at the console and ordered: "Start the signal device and send a specific signal wave to the atomic cluster!"
"Understood!" The operator nodded and responded. Immediately, he turned on the operating signal device and sent a specific signal wave to the atomic cluster.
The scene was quiet, and everyone stared at the LCD screen with bated breath, observing the reaction of the atomic clusters.
"No! There is signal 'feedback' from the atomic clusters, but their behavior is consistent and cannot carry out complex evolution and cannot meet the requirements for storing data."
"Mr. Zhou, ternary data storage requires atomic groups to undergo three changes. After the atomic groups reach the condensed state, they have only one behavior. This contradiction cannot be resolved!"
"Yes! Mr. Zhou, this research direction is wrong!"
“…”
The experimental results came out. The metal atomic groups in the condensed state of Boai can accept the charge of "specific signal waves", but they are far from meeting the requirements for data storage. The experts and professors looked at Zhou Xing and expressed their opinions one after another in confusion.
A Wave-Ei condensate is a peculiar state of matter in which a large number of atoms behave like a single particle. They were like soldiers on the training field who had just been disbanded. Suddenly the commander issued the order to "walk eastward in unison". Then, all the soldiers walked eastward "in one unified body" and had a unanimous response.
However, if the ternary mode stores data in three states of 1, 0, and -1, it requires at least the atomic group to have three "command" states at the same time, which is hugely different from the characteristics of matter in the Wave-Ei condensed state.
Zhou Xing smiled understandingly, looked at everyone and said, "That's it for today's experiment! Thank you for your hard work. We will conduct the next experiment: superfluid gyroscope. Please prepare."
Hearing this, everyone present was stunned and looked at Zhou Xing in surprise and confusion.
"Mr. Zhou, does the superfluid gyroscope experiment have anything to do with today's experiment? Are you going to study some new invention?"
"Mr. Zhou, superfluid gyroscopes are divided into superfluid quantized vortex gyroscopes, superfluid phase slip gyroscopes, and superfluid matter wave interference gyroscopes. Which kind of experiment do you want to conduct?"
"Mr. Zhou, what is the purpose of the experiment? Are you trying to develop something?"
“…”
As soon as Zhou Xing finished speaking, the experts and professors present couldn't help but think of a possibility and asked excitedly.
A superfluid is an ideal fluid with peculiar properties at ultra-low temperatures. It is characterized by a complete lack of viscosity. If the superfluid is placed in a ring-shaped container, it can flow endlessly because there is no friction. However, the superfluid gyroscope is a sensor based on the physical principle of superfluid that is sensitive to the relative inertial space angular movement of a carrier.
Combined with the Boai condensed matter experiment that just ended, all the elites among the human elite were present. It was not difficult to guess the connection. They all couldn't help but think of the possibility that Zhou Xing was preparing to use the superfluid gyroscope to affect the "condensed atomic cluster".
Zhou Xing nodded, smiled, and admitted generously: "Yes, I do want to develop a device, a device that will help develop artificial intelligence."
"Mr. Zhou, what kind of device do you want to develop? 'Atomic Hard Drive'?"
"It should be right! I have read Mr. Zhou's article on 'Second-line Criteria and Variables'. The reason why artificial intelligence cannot be born is because the space for storing data is not large enough."
"Yes! Yes! Mr. Zhou, you are going to develop an 'atomic hard drive', right?"
"Since we are developing an atomic hard drive, why do we need the atomic material to be a Boil condensate? Is there any reason?"
“…”
As soon as Zhou Xing finished speaking, the experts on the scene perked up and started asking questions one after another, as if they had been given a shot of chicken blood.
Now that everyone had guessed the "purpose", Zhou Xing simply stopped hiding it and admitted generously: "Yes, I want to develop an 'atomic hard drive'. I hope everyone can actively cooperate with me in the subsequent research."
Hearing this, the eyes of the experts and professors all shone with joy. This is a big project that will go down in history! If they can assist Zhou Xing to develop successfully, they will be able to make a big mark on their resume.
"No problem, no problem, we will cooperate fully!"
"Mr. Zhou, it's a superfluid matter wave interference gyroscope, right?"
"Mr. Zhou, the atomic matter wave interference gyroscope seems to have technical flaws in accurately controlling the direction and movement of captured atoms, and it is not competent enough!"
“…”
With a "crash", experts and professors swarmed around Zhou Xing, rushing to ask questions.
Seeing this, Zhou Xing couldn't help but smile bitterly. It was this virtue that was engaged in research. They had been conducting experiments for more than ten hours. However, once a new situation was discovered, they who were originally exhausted became energetic again. .
Zhou Xing looked at the time on the watch and found that it was already two o'clock in the morning.
Zhou Xing looked at everyone's persuasion and said: "Everyone should go back and rest first! I'm tired too. If you have any questions, let's talk about it tomorrow!"
"Mr. Zhou, you are right. Everyone, please go back and rest! This way you will have the energy to continue the experiment tomorrow." Zhao Guoliang looked at everyone and ordered.
After speaking, Zhao Guoliang looked at Zhou Xing, made an invitation gesture, and greeted warmly: "Mr. Zhou, I have arranged for a lounge."
Zhou Xing frowned and declined with an apologetic smile: "Thank you, but I haven't been home for several days and I plan to go back."
Zhao Guoliang nodded in understanding and said, "In this case, I won't force you to stay, I'll give it to you!"
"The experiment will be carried out tomorrow afternoon!" Zhou Xing nodded and followed Zhao Guoliang's footsteps outside the laboratory.
Today's experiment was very tiring, but it finally yielded some results. Next, after completing the data collection for other experimental projects, we can try to develop the atomic core disk, one of the three main bodies of the infinite sophon box.
Soon, with Zhao Guoliang's gift, the motorcade escorting Zhou Xing left the laboratory.
It was late at night, the traffic on the spacious road was sparse, and the motorcade escorting Zhou Xing home was traveling very fast.
Due to the significant increase in Zhou Xing's influence, with his return to China, the security force near the Bauhinia Rose Garden has been further strengthened. A five-kilometer radius has been classified as a no-fly zone, a no-passage zone for ordinary vehicles, and there are open posts and hidden sentries. Coupled with combat robots and drone groups, and 24-hour non-stop monitoring, even if a fly flies in, it will be detected.
