The Computational Materials Institute works very efficiently.
Although Hou Jinli also knew that this task was not easy to accomplish, he still said it bravely.
"The samples we have here have to be sent to Daya Bay for testing. According to their time schedule, if we can't make it in time for the trip at the beginning of next month, we will have to wait another month."
The only possible civilian prospect is probably medical equipment, but considering the toughness defects of ceramic-based graphene composite materials compared to alloy materials, it is probably unlikely to be used in small equipment.
To understand all the steps in the entire lab report, you still need one day, right
Of course, these things are not things that researchers like them need to worry about.
"I didn't think about it either."
"I hope you will pay careful attention to these points during the experiment."
"One week..." One of the researchers wearing glasses pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose and said with a look of embarrassment, "I'm afraid such a short time is not enough."
Excited as he was, Hou Jinli was unambiguous at work.
"there is none left."
The other researchers also nodded after exchanging glances.
Although everyone was a little confused when they were transferred here, especially the person in charge of the project, who usually had little presence, but for Professor Lu's sake, they still had to cheer up.
Upon hearing this embarrassing request, the researchers in the conference room looked at each other.
…
And Yu Junda, who was working on this project with him, he will naturally not forget.
If it's half a month, you can give it a try.
He is not usually a person who knows how to get things done, and he has never been a leader before. It is naturally impossible for Hou Jinli to talk about mobilization work. After briefly explaining the main points of the experiment, he got straight to the point.
Taking into account the failure rate, it is unlikely that the experiment on this composite material will take more than a week.
…
Twenty researchers were divided into five groups of four, each responsible for different samples.
Although Lu Zhou told him that the personnel would not be in place until tomorrow, in fact the personnel had already arrived before evening.
"There is also the most critical freeze-drying part. The operation of this part is the key to not destroying the three-dimensional network structure in the process of obtaining graphene aerogel. In the specific operation, this part is also relatively error-prone. …”
Those who have worked on ceramic matrix composites and graphene materials will be given priority, and those with a large number of papers in the first area will be given priority.
After stuffing the newly baked samples into the freezer and setting the time for 4 hours, Hou Jinli rubbed the sore bags under his eyes, "However, whether it is a national-level project or an insignificant topic, we just need to do a good job Just work on your own hands."
In order to speed up the progress, he immediately applied for a conference room from the relevant department, put up the PPT that he had worked on in the afternoon, and then called these researchers over and held a simple meeting.
In his original expectation, it would be great if half of these people could come over.
It was already late at night, and Yu Junda, who had taken the samples for XRD testing, returned to the laboratory. Looking at Hou Jinli, who was about to start the next group, he lowered his voice and exchanged words in a low voice: "By the way, we are participating in the national Has the project been kept secret?”
But now, the first two problems have been solved by Lu Zhou. Relatively speaking, the pressure on Hou Jinli is still relatively small.
Just do it five or six times.
Originally, he was worried that there might be too many people asking for it, but after getting the list, Professor Lu just took a look at it and approved it without blinking.
"The task is very difficult. Professor Lu hopes that we can get five sets of samples within a week. I hope everyone will work hard!"
The experiment began that evening.
Three of the groups were led by Hou Jinli, and the other two were managed by Junda.
Although he is just a small boss who follows the big boss, he is a Nobel Prize-winning boss after all. If you think about it, even a small boss is worthy enough.
Hou Jinli shook his head quickly.
Yu Junda: "What do you mean yes or no?"
Although scientific research is not a group fight, and research results cannot be piled up by manpower in most cases, but when there is sufficient funding and a clear idea of solving the problem, the advantage of more people and more power can still be reflected.
After working as a scientific research worker for so long, this is the first time that Hou Jinli has experienced the pleasure of being a boss.
The researcher wearing glasses originally wanted to say something, but when he met Hou Jinli's imploring gaze, he scratched his head and finally sighed.
Success rate less than 20%
Lu Zhou nodded.
In other words, Professor Lu’s personal prestige in the institute is very high.
Upon hearing the one-week deadline, whispers suddenly erupted in the conference room.
But originally, apart from being used in reactors, this kind of thing can't be used anywhere else.
Hou Jinli: "The controllable fusion technology has not yet been finalized in China. Detailed documents are expected to have to wait until the demonstration reactor is completed. However, recently the United States seems to be planning to kick us out of the ITER organization, and the country has become more and more strict about this area. I’m paying more and more attention to it... Let’s keep it a secret for now, right?”
Considering that not everyone might have time to participate in this topic, he finally checked a total of twenty names and handed the list to Lu Zhou's office.
But for Professor Lu's sake...
"Okay, I'll leave this to you."
"I believe you should have seen the experimental process in the report, but I will briefly explain it here using PPT. According to my research, the key to adjusting the pore size of this graphene porous network aerogel is the main idea. Focus on the control of temperature during the process of adding reducing agent... "
To be honest, this was the first time he had seen such a temperless person in charge.
What's more, speaking more broadly, this is also for the future of the country's controllable fusion industry.
For inventions or utility model technologies that involve national security or major interests and need to be kept secret, such research results will probably be applied for in the form of confidential patents.
"These people will report to your laboratory tomorrow. The requirements are the same as what I said. Is there anything else you need here?"
"Controllable nuclear fusion," Yu Junda sighed and said with some fascination, "To be honest, I never thought that one day I would be involved in a scientific research project of this level."
Heaving a sigh of relief, Hou Jinli showed a grateful look on his face.
According to the list Lu Zhou gave him, he searched the names one by one on the professional database. The number of SCIs, number of citations, academic background and other information were clear at a glance.
"I know this is not easy, but we only have one week. The question now is not whether we can do it, but we must do it!"
"Forget it, it's not the first time I've laid the floor in the laboratory anyway..."
Hou Jinli thought for a moment and said, "Yes and no."
For them, liver explosion is just a common occurrence.
At most, it's just a few days of laying floors in the laboratory.
"Thanks!"
Generally speaking, non-military enterprises (including private enterprises) are not qualified to apply for confidential patents. However, considering that the STAR-2 project is currently a national key scientific research project, after explaining the importance of the technology, the patent office examiner should approve it. pass.
It would take two days to review all the relevant documents, right
"If we delay here for one day, the STAR-2 project will have to wait for one day."
What Hou Jinli didn't expect the most was that all the twenty people he hooked were here.
