I am devoted to scientific research, but you want to trick me into having a love relationship?

Chapter 707 Is this kid just showing off?
Xu Qingzhou spent the weekend at home pondering solutions for creating nanobuffer cavities during superconducting integration. He also didn't go to the research institute on Monday, continuing his research on the fabrication process of nanobuffer cavities.

On Monday night, seeing that this person had been sitting in the study from morning to night without moving an inch, Song Yao couldn't stand it anymore, so she grabbed his ear and dragged him outside for a couple of laps.

Xu Qingzhou's three days at home were not without results. On Tuesday morning, he finally finished designing the nanobuffer cavity. Without wasting time, he and the magnet integration team worked overtime to verify the process.

Thursday.

"Professor Xu, Academician Ren, we succeeded!"

Li Yi couldn't hide his surprise. He saved the test data and shouted to the two people not far away, "By preparing a nano-cellular buffer layer using PASD and verifying it under extreme conditions with our own testing system, we can effectively solve the fluid-thermal shock problem!"

Xu Qingzhou and Ren Nan walked over to check the data.

"Yes, it's not only effective, but also remarkably effective! After 1000 cycles at 77K300K, the pore structure remains intact, with a pore collapse rate of <1%. This is a revolutionary innovation in dealing with fluid-thermal shock," Academician Ren Nan said with admiration.

He discovered that no matter what the problem was, it seemed that this young man could always solve it.

"Next, we can reproduce the 50kA current + 12T magnetic field scenario in the test system to directly verify the dynamic performance of the buffer cavity," Xu Qingzhou said.

At this moment, Zheng Xu also walked in, saying, "It looks like there's good news."

Zheng Xu was in charge of the diagnostics and data group, so he often shuttled between Ren Nan's magnet engineering group and Zhao Shengwen's plasma physics experimental group to cooperate with the two groups in performance testing.

Xu Qingzhou said, "We can now finalize the plan for the next phase."

“I’ve come at just the right time.”

At 4:30 p.m., the three of them finalized the experimental plan for reproduction and finally had time to rest. They had tea and rested in Academician Ren Nan's office.

Zheng Xu took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "Once the nanobuffer cavity is perfected, the performance of the superconducting magnet is expected to see a new improvement."

These days, Zheng Xu has been smiling a lot.

He brought his family over last week.

Furthermore, Wu Jiali's interview went very smoothly, and she successfully entered the marketing department of Zero Point Technology, where she became the director.

He can finally live a life of comfort and happiness with his wife, children, and a warm bed.

Zero Point Technology holds a rather unique position, as it has access to a large amount of internal information from research institutes. Therefore, all new hires undergo rigorous background checks.

Song Yao also noticed Wu Jiali.

However, she didn't use any back channels and strictly followed the interview process.

However, Wu Jiali had served as a leader in her original company for many years, and her abilities were beyond doubt. After several rounds of competition, she finally succeeded in obtaining the position of director.

"It's not easy."

Ren Nan poured tea for Xu Qingzhou and Zheng Xu, saying, "We accomplished in a few months what others would take two or even three or four years to do. To be honest, I still find it unbelievable."

"This might be the advantage of being a latecomer."

Zheng Xu remained noncommittal; the scientific community seemed to change every day. Today this research institute made a revolutionary breakthrough, tomorrow that research group broke a world record.

He paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Based on the current progress, the first plasma discharge experiment can be achieved by May next year."

"Actually, it's not that optimistic. We're taking a completely new approach, and even the integration of the magnets has taken up a lot of effort. We don't know how many more challenges await us in the future," Ren Nan said from the side.

Currently, the magnet system uses a fully high-temperature superconducting magnet and negative triangular plasma, which is the first time in the world that these two technologies have been combined in a magnet system.

"That's what makes it challenging."

Xu Qingzhou sipped his tea, leaned back in his chair, and turned his gaze back from the window, saying, "Effort and reward are always proportional. Trying new things makes your heart race, doesn't it?" Hearing this, Ren Nan and Zheng Xu both laughed. That was indeed true; the unknown was more attractive than the known.

Especially following this kid in front of me, he always manages to do something surprising.

Xu Qingzhou said regretfully, "Unfortunately, I am actually quite envious of the high-precision magnetic field control technology of Japan's JT-60SA and the compact power supply system of the United States' SPARC."

"You little rascal, you're actually eyeing their core technology."

Ren Nan laughed: "Based on my understanding of Americans, even if they were willing to negotiate and purchase superconducting thin films back then, they would probably only offer some minor, insignificant patents. Core technologies are difficult to obtain."

Xu Qingzhou shrugged helplessly. He was just saying it; he hadn't really expected to get the technology from there.

Maxwell's team has entered the final stage of the work, and Jc has reached 4.8 × 10 A/cm.

He didn't expect that the United States would catch up within a year.

Although its stability remains to be verified, the data released suggests that it is quite robust.

It won't be long before a press conference is held. After all, this is a great opportunity to showcase the scientific research capabilities of the United States.

Xu Qingzhou was very familiar with the tricks of the trade in the United States.

Ren Nan glanced at the young man across from him sipping his tea and changed the subject to something lighter: "You haven't had as many interviews lately, have you?"

“There were a few, but Lao Ji turned them down. Dealing with the media is much more tiring than doing experiments.” Xu Qingzhou said helplessly. More than 20 days have passed, and the media is still coming to interview him.

Ren Nan smiled and said, "Professor Xu is indeed different from others. When I was your age, I was only thinking about how to show off."

"I've shown myself too many times, it's become boring."

"."

Ren Nan and Zheng Xu's expressions froze. In younger terms, was this kid just showing off?

"There's a seminar at the Institute of Plasma Physics next month. Shall we go?"

"Go ahead, after all, it's a rare opportunity for exchange."

At this moment, in the testing center.

Ding Daoyong looked at the email and smiled. "The project completion review has been approved."

He discovered ether-based coordination complex fragments and self-assembled nanoclusters in the previous waste liquid, and analyzed their complex chemical mechanisms, such as coordination and catalytic effects, in detail.

Ultimately, a solvent was formulated that is very useful for improving the electrolyte in lithium-sulfur batteries.

"Tsk tsk, you actually managed to pull it off, awesome!" Jia Zhixian exclaimed with admiration.

Although Ding Daoyong does not own the patent, this project is expected to produce at least three SCI papers, and possibly even one in Q1 journals.
Ding Daoyong also sighed, "Actually, I didn't have much confidence at first, but after Professor Xu saw it, he encouraged me to continue."

"Hehe, how about it? The project's finished, shouldn't we treat the brothers to a meal?" Jia Zhixian said with a smile.

Although I envy him, I am also happy for Ding Daoyong.

He personally witnessed Ding Daoyong working countless sleepless nights to collect data.

"barbecue?"

"Absolutely. Barbecue and beer. I'll call Lao Zhang and the others. To be honest, I admire you quite a bit for daring to push yourself to the limit. Lao Zhang, let's go out for a late-night snack."
