Chapter 240: 239-Normal temperature superconductor

When Blacklight Technology once again hit the world's media screens, dozens of factories were located in the industrial park area of Namibia's Life Sciences City and were completed.

It is said to be an industrial park, but in fact these factories are all affiliated to Blacklight Technology, so strictly speaking, this place should be called Blacklight Technology Industrial Park.

Many factories valued the environment and protection measures here and approached Qian Wenhuan to apply to enter the industrial park, but they were all rejected.

Hundreds of cargo ships carrying tens of thousands of tons of machinery and equipment docked at Walvis Bay Port, and were then transported by heavy trucks to those industrial parks. Ever since Blacklight Technology entered Namibia, the docks here have not stopped for a day. .

Whether it was the construction of the nuclear power plant or the life science city, or the current industrial park, the number of staff at Walvis Bay Terminal has increased from hundreds to thousands, and they are often extremely busy.

However, it is precisely because of the existence of black light technology that it has brought countless opportunities and development to Namibia. On one side, there is penetration from the top, and on the other side, there are opportunities and development. It can be said that the Namibia Congress loves and hates black light technology.

However, at this size, the Namibia Congress can no longer weaken Black Light Technology. It can only be done by a strong man breaking his arm. However, once Black Light Technology is allowed to withdraw from Namibia, Black Light Technology may be severely damaged, but Namibia, which loses Black Light Technology, will be able to recover. Where to go

At this time, in a certain ceramic chemical factory in the industrial park, three engineers who had joined the God's Forbidden Zone were leading dozens of black knights to work here.

The third batch of ordinary black knights has just been completed after half a year of training. This is basically the last batch of ordinary black knights. Next, Chen Chen will stop production of this ordinary black knight and replace it with the T-virus black knight that is about to be completed.

Whether it is the cultivation speed or the strength of the body tissue, the ordinary black knight and the T-virus black knight are not at the same level at all.

Chen Chen did not assign these five hundred ordinary black knights to the rapid reaction force, but assigned them to various factories.

These factories are fully automated, and only a few dozen employees can make the factory run quickly and efficiently.

At this time, Chen Chen stood in the ceramic chemical factory, watching the huge assembly line begin its trial operation under the instructions of Professor Charles. After more than three hours, a flat cylinder that was black and reflective appeared. was slowly transported out.

From a distance, it looks like a palm-sized coal cake.

"Did you make it?"

Three engineers gathered together, and one of them, Professor Charles, stepped forward and gently held the palm-sized "coal cake" as if he were holding the most precious treasure in the world.

"Mr. Chen, can we start the experiment now?" Professor Charles asked.

"Let's get started. You can experiment on your own and don't worry about me." Chen Chen waved his hand with an expectant look on his face.

"good."

Professor Charles secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He asked his assistant to take out a platform. The platform looked like it was made of pure steel. There was electricity underneath the platform, turning the steel plate into an electromagnet.

Then, with an almost divine expression, Professor Charles slowly placed the "coal cake" in his hand on top of the steel plate.

Next, a strange scene happened...

Chen Chen only saw that the piece of "coal cake" did not fall on the steel plate automatically at all, but floated tremblingly, and slowly fell into a stationary state as it reached balance.

Just like that, this "coal cake" magically floated a few centimeters above the steel plate, completely suspended in mid-air!

Although preparations were made, when this "coal cake" was actually suspended in mid-air, everyone still took a breath...

"It really worked..."

Chen Chen's eyes showed a hint of joy and he murmured in a low voice.

This "coal cake" is actually nothing else, but a room-temperature superconductor material. It is one of the high-tech technologies that Chen Chen retrieved from the "Elysium Space" plane.

"Mr. Chen, we, we succeeded..."

Professor Charles felt like his whole body was trembling. He said excitedly, "The technology you gave is true. This yttrium barium copper oxide compound formed by chemical vapor deposition and then sintering is really a room-temperature superconductor!"

Chen Chen nodded and walked to the "coal cake" suspended in mid-air, "Tell me about the characteristics of this material."

"Okay, okay!"

Professor Charles took a deep breath and suppressed the surprise in his heart, "According to the technology you provided, we used chemical vapor deposition to deposit the yttrium barium copper oxide compound, and then sintered it to ceramize it, and after sintering the yttrium Care must be taken when making barium copper oxide compounds because it is a crystalline material. Only by carefully controlling the temperature and speed of annealing and quenching and calibrating the grain boundaries can its superconductivity be optimized... "

After Professor Charles finished explaining, Chen Chen couldn't wait to ask, "What about practicality? Isn't yttrium barium copper oxide very brittle? Can it really be used as an industrial material?"

"absolutely okay."

Charles’s answer was as expected, “After processing, this composite metal oxide has sufficient ductility and strength. Even if it cannot meet certain industrial requirements, its diamagnetic properties can solve most problems... "

As he spoke, Charles gently touched the superconductor suspended on the steel plate and exclaimed, "Look, the perfect Meissner effect, this will be an industrial revolution!"

Chen Chen did not speak, but he knew that there was no moisture in Professor Charles's words. Materials that can only maintain superconductivity at low temperatures are completely different from materials that can maintain superconductivity at room temperature.

In human society, a hundred years have passed since the earliest superconducting materials were discovered. Countless superconductors have already been used in all walks of life in the field of modern science and technology.

In the field of scientific research, there are more than 9,300 superconducting magnets at the European Large Hadron Collider;

In clinical medicine, superconductors are also found in magnetic resonance tomography imagers;

In industry, diamagnetic frictionless gyroscopes and bearings play a major role…

In addition, these superconducting materials also have an irreplaceable position in military equipment, satellite communications, aerospace and other fields.

The significance of room-temperature superconductors is by no means as simple as another new superconducting material. Generally, superconductors only exist at ultra-low temperatures and must rely on expensive liquids such as liquid nitrogen and liquid helium to maintain low-temperature environments. The cost of maintaining low temperatures is even Far more than the material itself.

Therefore, low-temperature superconductors can only be used in a few cutting-edge industries and are simply out of reach in real life.

However, if room-temperature superconductors appear, there will no longer be any need for any low-temperature equipment on various instruments, eliminating the cost of maintaining low-temperature temperatures and saving the manufacturing costs of low-temperature equipment.

This is just one of them. Room-temperature superconductivity can also make the generation of qubit entanglement easier. Simply put, it is the realization of a quantum computer.

In addition, there are also high-tech fields such as controlled nuclear fusion, which will produce explosive changes with the emergence of room-temperature superconductors...

The emergence of this material is enough to trigger the fourth industrial revolution in the history of human civilization.
