Chapter 532 It’s too scary to have such an opponent
Inside an office in the southeast corner of MIT.

In 10 minutes, 12 people had returned to their workstations, including a colleague who was on vacation and was about to travel to Hawaii.

The huge office was filled with whispers. Some people looked confused, while others had complicated expressions and whispered something to the people around them.

The person in charge, Professor James, was standing in the corridor and making a phone call, and one could vaguely hear that his tone seemed a little agitated.

Neck was confused and couldn't help asking, "Oh, who can tell me what happened?!"

"You don't know yet?"

A colleague looked strange and reminded: "Maybe you should check out the news from Xu Qingzhou's research group."

Nick was stunned for a moment, and Barnes had already taken out his mobile phone to search for relevant information. Then, he saw Barnes' expression froze for a moment, as if he had seen something horrifying.

"what happens!"

Nick leaned closer oddly, and when he saw the words on the screen clearly, his pupils froze.

Jc(12 T)——2.0×10 A/cm
T_c fluctuation——±0.2 K
Surface roughness (RMS)——0.7 nm
Nick stared and cried out, "No, this is impossible!"

"That's the fact that their superconducting thin film performance has reached commercial level, and that the substrate-free niobium tin (NbSn) thin film can be grown at the atomic level and is stable under extreme magnetic fields."

My colleague sighed helplessly.

"Damn it, how did they do that?!"

The person next door asked angrily.

Some people suspected: "Is it just a gimmick to get some experimental funds?"

Xu Qingzhou and his team only disclosed the latest research results. The key experimental data are core secrets, and they certainly wouldn't be stupid enough to expose them.

Someone else shook his head. "It's unlikely. Although, this kind of thing happens all the time in the scientific research community. They throw out a concept to attract investors and those guys sitting in offices. But I looked at some of the data they released, and the data curve is more perfect than the sweater my grandma knitted."

“It’s terrifying to have an opponent like this.”

Barnes was still immersed in surprise. They were just teasing Xu Qingzhou whether he was ready to give up.

"In fact, we don't need to be so pessimistic. After all, our superconducting film Jc has reached 2.5×10A/cm, and Tc is also stable at ±0.1 K. I mean, we are still in the leading position now."

"Hey, guys, don't look like that, Mendes is right!"

They have the most advanced laboratories and a first-class team
Look at Xu Qingzhou again.

Among the four-person team, two of them are sophomore undergraduates.

Professor James walked in, and the office fell silent. He swept his eyes across everyone's faces and said, "It seems that everyone has seen the news. Okay, everyone, now we should formulate a new experimental plan."

Princeton and Maxwell's team are also holding an emergency meeting. Although some research institutes in Xia and Japan are also doing research in this area, there is still a gap compared to them. There are only a handful of competitive teams, including them, MIT, and Cambridge.

Three legs stand in a tripod, maintaining balance.

As a result, a dark horse suddenly appeared and disrupted all the chess games.

There is even a tendency to leave the rest far behind.

Now, even top laboratories like theirs began to panic.
3 month 8 day.

Xu Qingzhou and his team's experiment was like a bomb dropped into the water, creating huge ripples in the field of superconducting films.

Those small research groups were dumbfounded, shocked by Xu Qingzhou's terrifying speed of catching up.

Of course, besides being surprised, what people are more excited about is of course eating melons.

Even without Xu Qingzhou, they could only follow suit. The Maxwell team in Princeton, the Avery Laboratory in Cambridge, and others all started to rush to catch up as if a huge mountain had suddenly fallen on them.

The field of superconductivity is very lively and bustling, but the culprit seems to be enjoying himself and is leisurely lying on the sofa and petting his cat.

Outside the window, the gloomy weather finally cleared up. Although the sun was shining, the piled up snow began to melt, and the temperature was two degrees lower than the previous few days.

Xu Qingzhou narrowed his eyes, his thoughts gradually drifting away. At this stage of the experiment, it was time to consider the thesis.

The topic has been thought of: [Cross-scale superconducting material design: from atomic interface to engineering application]

Integrating topological interface engineering, nano-doping, radiation-resistant design and large-scale preparation technology, a full-chain R&D framework of "materials-devices-systems" is proposed.

The framework of the paper has been finalized.

This includes how to enhance the superconducting coherence length and pinning force through atomic-level interface regulation, and how to use topological materials to induce non-local pinning effects.
More complicated than what Carson and others wrote.

"We have to hurry up. It would be best if we can get it done within this month."

Xu Qingzhou thought to himself.

It was just to organize his previous plans and combine them with experimental data. The workload was not too large, and he could just spare some time to help Song Yao perfect the short-selling model.

However, his thoughts were quickly interrupted as his eyes fell on the girl on the yoga mat in the living room.

The temperature has dropped sharply in the past two days. It is very cold outside and the wind blowing on the face feels like a knife. Song Yao is too lazy to go out for exercise, so she simply learns yoga at home.

Take a big step back with your right foot, place your left calf perpendicular to the mat, straighten your right leg and inhale, stretch your right arm upward, place your left hand on the back of your right thigh, and twist your body to the left.

Xu Qingzhou watched with great interest, feeling that she was worthy of being the school beauty Song, with her first-rate body flexibility. If it were him, Xu Qingzhou would probably have twisted his hands and feet together if he put himself in her shoes.

He shook his head, trying to get rid of the strange image in his mind.

Sports bra, white loose-fitting home pants.

To a certain extent, it can be said that this loose outfit is more stylish than yoga pants.

It is this kind of vagueness that makes people more imaginative.

Song Yao felt uncomfortable being stared at by this guy, raised her eyebrows and asked, "Do you have a lot of free time?"

"Obviously."

Xu Qingzhou changed to a comfortable position and lay down, and couldn't help sighing: "There will be a lot of troubles in a few days. Now of course I have to rest well."

Now that commercial-grade superconducting films have come out, some people may be unable to sit still and want to give money, or to be more precise, buy patents.

Superconducting film with Jc(12 T)=2.2×10 A/cm.

要知道,虽然实验室的数据已经能达到3.0×10 A/cm,可能真正能完整实现商业生产的,也就2.0×10-2.5×10之间。

This is only a temporary achievement, and the market prospects are broad. I believe many people will be tempted. As for how much the patent fee is, if nothing unexpected happens, it will be enough to achieve temporary financial freedom.

Xu Qingzhou said sincerely: "You practice yours, and I watch mine. It won't affect you. Is there anyone who needs help in yoga? I'm happy to help."

"."

Song Yao curled her lips and didn't bother to pay attention to this person. She thought, just look, you will get used to it after seeing it many times, just like when her legs were touched.

Xu Qingzhou watched for a while, and waited until Song Yao finished her first yoga training and prepared to take a shower before he got up and sat in front of the computer again. He had been writing a paper for the entire afternoon, and it was time to change his mind.
