Chapter 92: On the importance of metaphysics in scientific research

"No need," Brother Liu said with a smile, "the Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis of the sample is done here, and you don't need to participate in the specific experiment. You just need to help us analyze the experimental data. I will let you know in a moment Someone will make a table for you, and from today on, you will be a member of our research team!"

Because tailored single-layer carbon nanotubes can be easily dispersed in polar solvents such as water, alcohol, and DMF to form colloids. Based on this property, carbon nanotubes are not only being studied by countless researchers as next-generation electronic materials. Its application in composite materials is also becoming more and more extensive.

Is it so metaphysical

Although domestic universities mostly cooperate in the field of scientific research, competition among them is also not small. Similar scientific research projects are also being carried out in other universities, and everyone is secretly holding back their enthusiasm. After all, in scientific research, whoever comes first eats the grapes, and whoever comes after eats the grape skins. If the first comer eats the grapes without spitting out the skins, The master, the latecomers may not even be able to eat a grape skin.

"Exactly." Lu Zhou said with a smile.

"So early? Is there anything special about it?" Lu Zhou asked curiously.

At least in the country, yes.

Lu Zhou was stunned.

Qian Zhongming nodded and said, "Do you know how to use matlab?"

The campus assistant project is being watched by Yuan Liwei and Rong Hai. The part of the code he is responsible for has completed bug troubleshooting, and his help is not needed for the time being.

At least, it's far behind compared to the labs next door.

"Right here." Senior Brother Qian pointed to his feet.

At least the research results in the area of carbon cluster material research are indeed nothing to say. The only ones in China that can compete with Jin University are Yan University and Shuimu University.

He looked Lu Zhou up and down and said, "Are you from Shuyuan... Lu Zhou?"

"That's it?!" Lu Zhou stared at the instrument in disbelief. He didn't feel that it could match any cutting-edge instrument.

Seeing this, Lu Zhou couldn't help but sigh, the senior brothers and sisters are still amazing.

As for the research project that Professor Li Rongen is responsible for, it can be regarded as a widely used branch among the many research fields of carbon nanotube materials.

"That's all for now. The new samples have just been delivered and the data collection hasn't been done yet. It's too late today. I plan to do it tomorrow." Qian Zhongming touched his nose and said.

Taking the USB flash drive given by Senior Brother Qian back to the dormitory, Lu Zhou copied the information to the computer and read it carefully line by line.

Lu Zhou looked around and didn't see any powerful experimental equipment.

"That's right," Qian Zhongming nodded, as if he guessed what Lu Zhou was thinking, and continued, "The TENSOR-II research-grade Fourier transform infrared spectrometer, this instrument was customized by our laboratory from the German Bruker Company. Built-in gold reflector, the reflectivity is 6.5% higher than that of aluminum mirror. It has strong oxidation resistance and more stable optical performance. Dual-channel digital acquisition, four external output optical path expansion... "

"Hello, Senior Brother Qian!"

"Okay, okay, don't scare our junior brother," Senior Brother Liu reached out and patted this guy's shoulder, grinning at the stunned Lu Zhou, "This guy talks too much sometimes, don't take it to heart. Tomorrow we are going to collect Fourier transform infrared spectrum data on new samples. If you are interested, you can come and take a look, but you may have to get up early. We will start on time at eight o'clock."

"... This is where we mainly do experiments, but a lot of the equipment is in the old campus and was moved here recently. Sometimes I have to take the subway to do experiments. But it will be much better starting next year. Our laboratory will Move the whole thing here.”

On the importance of metaphysics in scientific experiments.

"A little is enough," Qian Zhongming nodded, picked up a USB flash drive from the table, and handed it to Lu Zhou, "The literature you need to read and some introductory tutorials are all in it, including the ones we wrote when we applied for the fund. Application form, after reading these things, you can have a preliminary understanding of our research... By the way, remember not to post it online."

"Where is the Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy data collection done? Is it the old campus?"

"Let me introduce to you, this is Qian Zhongming, you can just call him Senior Brother Qian."

After reading the application form for applying for the national fund, Lu Zhou continued to click on the folder where the papers were stored.

In particular, the two major categories of steelmaking and cement are related to the great cause of infrastructure construction. In recent years, there has even been a faint trend of becoming a popular direction...

"Do I also need to run in both directions?" Lu Zhou asked.

I’ve seen a lot…

This Qian Zhongming looks a bit upright, or dull, and not as talkative as Senior Brother Liu.

When he was on summer vacation more than three months ago, due to system tasks, he had read professional books related to materials science, but the things in those books mainly talked about basic knowledge and did not involve such in-depth knowledge. Content.

Of course, although previous research has been done, there are still many technical problems that need to be solved. The most specific one is that if carbon nanotubes, as nanoscale fillers, cannot be uniformly dispersed inside the matrix or condensed into clusters inside the matrix, Then, instead of enhancing the strength of the matrix material, doping will damage the inherent properties of the matrix material.

"That's right," Qian Zhongming nodded, pointing to the instrument on the table that looked similar to an old-fashioned printer, "That's what I use."

"here?"

Senior Brother Qian had already prepared the papers he needed to read, which saved him a lot of time.

"Is that all?" Lu Zhou asked, holding the USB flash drive.

On the left side of the door, a man from science and technology wearing a T-shirt and a shaved head was facing away from the laboratory door, fiddling with an instrument that looked somewhat similar to a printer, and did not notice anyone coming.

And the bottleneck encountered by the scientific research team led by Professor Li Rongen seems to be exactly in this place

Although he had read some reference books on materials science during the summer vacation of his freshman year, they did not involve such specific things.

"know a little."

Senior Brother Liu continued: "To be honest, the temperature was just right in the morning, but later we found that the same thing happened if the air conditioner was turned on... Well, I can't explain it clearly, but we all agreed that the success rate of the experiment would be higher if we did it at eight in the morning. "

For example, carbon nanotubes are already considered a relatively cutting-edge field in the world. Technology updates can be described as changing with each passing day. If you want to understand this field in depth, you can only read a large number of papers.

The competitive relationship between laboratories is so cruel. Whoever makes it first will get the result.

It is precisely for this reason that the first thing many project leaders do when they get up every day is to search through various channels for their own topics to see if any bastard can get there first.

With that said, Senior Brother Liu pushed open the office door.

Lu Zhou listened to his explanation with a confused expression.

Senior Brother Liu led Lu Zhou over and patted the man on the shoulder. After the man turned around, he continued with a smile.

After a cursory glance at these papers, at least three CDs are from Jinling University.
