The explosives prize was accepted on December 10, the day of Mr. Nobel's death, and there were nearly two months to go.

Since he decided to give up the opportunity to go to Stockholm to pretend to be forced, Liu Feng has since relented and completely put his mind on the bet with Academician Cui Kun.

In 3 months, it is almost impossible to develop a room temperature superconducting material that can be used to replace the superconducting electromagnetic stone of the super collider, even for Liu Feng, who has opened the hanging.

It's just that Liu Feng only needs to prove the feasibility of room temperature superconductivity within these 3 months.

Last year, the Max Planck Institute for the Structure and Dynamics of Matter in country D used light pulses to cause a brief change in a single atom in the crystal lattice, which led to the creation of superconductivity.

However, Liu Feng believes that room temperature superconductivity is not a road since ancient Huashan, and the path to achieve room temperature superconductivity is far more than just a way of light pulse, at least, through thousands of simulations, he has proved that in an ultra-high pressure environment, some materials also have room temperature superconductivity characteristics.

In his last real-world experiment, he tested that actinide hydrides also have very significant superconducting properties at -20°C and 1.5 million atmospheres.

Although these materials still require high-pressure conditions, the -20°C environment is definitely far more than the success of predecessors, which also makes "room temperature" superconductivity possible in the real sense, far exceeding the contribution of country D to the research of room temperature superconductivity.

In fact, actinides are a series of metal elements with atomic numbers from 89 to 103, a total of 15 kinds, Liu Feng discovered the connection between their position in the periodic table and superconductors through the observation of the conductive mode of various metal hydrides at specific temperatures, and used this connection to develop a calculation program to match the properties of actinide hydrides with their superconductivity, which can be applied to all 15 actinides in the periodic table!

In just a few days, it has achieved or even surpassed the research results of decades abroad, and such an unparalleled talent really shocked Academician Cui Kun and others!

It's no wonder that this guy was able to win the dynamite award at a young age, such a terrifying learning ability, super experimental talent, and the final results show that people's luck seems to be very good, so it is a matter of course.

It's just that it's not enough.

Because the superconducting properties of actinide hydrides need to be achieved under ultra-high pressure conditions, the applicability is very narrow, so this does not convince Academician Cui, and even Liu Feng himself is not satisfied.

Therefore, Liu Feng also wants to derive this program and generalize it to other elements, and finally realize the prediction of calculating which other elements can be combined with hydrogen to form room-temperature superconductors.

The significance of finding a specific method to predict which elements can form superconducting materials is self-evident, and to some extent, even more significant than the discovery of superconducting properties of a certain material!

Imagine if we could really summarize a theorem that proves that there is an inevitable connection between superconductivity and the periodic table, how much effort would be saved for the study of superconducting materials!

After all, at present, the biggest difficulty in limiting the research of superconducting materials at room temperature is that there is no specific route!

Even the Max Planck Institute for the Structure and Dynamics of Matter, after decades of hard work, finally used light pulses last year to cause a brief change in a single atom in the crystal lattice, which led to the emergence of superconductivity, but it was just a coincidence of the nature of 'luck'!

The reason why I say this is because after the research of the people of country D, the national laboratory of country M was ecstatic and ambitious to invest a huge amount of 1 billion US dollars in this area, and even prepared an expensive supercomputer for the optical pulse room temperature superconductivity project, but a year has passed, and there is no progress of any nature at all!

The people in charge and the capitalists then found out that it was a completely bottomless pit, so the project lasted less than a year before it was cut mercilessly and moved in other directions.

In addition to country M, at the national level, such as the people of country D themselves, and even countries such as Toray and Mao Xiong, have also invested heavily in the light pulse project, and even the winner of last year's dynamite physics award, for more than a year, is also an avid supporter of the light pulse project, however, everyone has also found that they have been pitted......

Fortunately, there was not much demand in Huaguo in this area before, and there were not many people engaged in this research, so the project had not yet had time to be established, and after seeing the lessons of other countries, it was gone.

Of course, this is also the fundamental reason why the people led by Academician Cui Kun completely disagree with his work on room temperature superconducting materials......

And Liu Feng's purpose this time is to make people's research on room temperature superconductivity not as random as a headless fly!

Thus, he made a summary discovery on actinides, and then wanted to generalize to the entire periodic table.

Speaking of which, the new algorithm of this program is actually very simple, and its basic principle is to use the electron arrangement in each series of elements to predict which elements can cooperate with hydrogen to construct the ideal lattice, resulting in strong electron-phonon interactions.

The so-called electron-phonon interaction refers to the interaction between electrons and lattice vibrations.

Since the electrons in a solid are acted upon by the positive ions that make up the lattice, and because the ions are not stationary, they always vibrate near the equilibrium position, their action on the electrons can be divided into two parts: one is the periodic electric field caused by the ions at rest at the equilibrium position (i.e., the lattice point).

In addition to forming energy bands from the energy spectrum of electrons, the periodic field does not cause the scattering of electrons, that is, the energy and momentum (quasi-momentum) of electrons moving in the periodic field remain unchanged.

The other part is the effect of the deviation caused by the vibration relative to the periodic electric field, because this is the effect of ion motion, so it changes with time, and the vibration of ions can be decomposed into simple normal modes of various frequencies, wave vectors and polarization, the vibration dynamics of each simple normal mode are quantized, and the vibration of the lattice can be described by various frequencies, wave vectors and polarized phonons.

The electron-phonon interaction refers to this lattice vibration and the interaction of electrons.

This interaction can cause a number of physical effects.

For example, the reason why the resistance of metals changes with temperature is that the phonon density of various frequencies depends on temperature, and the electron-phonon interaction will cause the electron energy to be corrected, which is equivalent to modifying the effective nature of the band electrons.

This is where metals and alloys become superconductive at low temperatures.

In fact, as early as 1950, two European laboratories discovered that the critical temperature of isotope superconductivity of mercury is inversely proportional to the square root of the isotope mass!

The principle seems very simple, and everyone knows that there is probably some kind of inevitable law in it.

However, if you want to borrow various instruments in the real laboratory and discover this fixed procedural law, even if more than thousands of people work together, and after 2 or 30 years of experimental data accumulation, I am afraid it may not be possible to find it.

This is also the fundamental reason why the breakthrough of room temperature superconducting materials is so difficult.

That is, Liu Feng can try to conduct thousands of simulation experiments under the condition of controlling the microscopic world before he can see this 'simple program'. With its own strength, it is comparable to a country, and it is definitely not just talking!

However, this time, Liu Feng's purpose is not only to prove the lattice program law between actinides and hydrogen elements, but also the lattice law between metal and non-metal elements in the entire periodic table!

The material knowledge and experimental data accumulation involved in this is completely astronomical, and it is not even less than the experimental data in terabytes of super collision maneuvers!

Therefore, these days, Liu Feng has hardly ever left the door of the dormitory, and has been locking himself in the dormitory assigned by the research institute, racking his brains to design experiments against the information queried in the computer and the huge data simulated in his mind.

In order to achieve this 'great goal' and find the inevitable laws inside, he had to consult a large number of literature, simulate experiments in his mind thousands of times, and on this basis, conceive feasible experimental ideas in reality.

The reason for his concentration is, of course, the issue of the authority of the laboratory of the Institute of Materials.

Have the right not to use it, and it will be invalid when it expires!

Guarding such a large 'gold mine', if he didn't 'catch it all' and get something out of it, he really couldn't sleep well.

As for describing his authority in the laboratory for these three months as a gold mine, it is not an exaggeration at all, and even underestimates its value.

A national-level materials research institute, not to mention how many of the most advanced materials research equipment and hardware facilities there are, only the software facilities, for example, the manpower he can mobilize, and the non-public confidential information about materials research that he can access is not what Liu Feng could imagine before!

As early as more than 20 years ago, at the beginning of the National 863 Program, in order to gather the scale effect of material research and achieve the research and development effect of accumulation, the relevant person in charge of the Materials Research Institute summarized most of the domestic material research data under the umbrella of the Institute.

In it, there are not only the research data of the latest generation of 5th generation fighter absorbing materials, but also the research data of top-secret materials such as large-width and high-strength aircraft carrier marine steel for aircraft carriers with a single weight of 50~100 tons, third-generation nuclear power main pipelines, reactor internals, and super materials for ultra-supercritical rotors.

Of course, that is, Liu Feng, who is in such a major project as antimatter engineering, as the chief technical director, has such permission to view these materials.

Despite this, on the side of the Materials Research Institute, it can only be accessed after being closely tracked and audited by security personnel to ensure that secrets will never be leaked.

Therefore, Liu Feng cherishes this opportunity to enrich his material knowledge reserves.

Finally, the hard work paid off.

……

"You're going to borrow that lab next door?"

After hearing Liu Feng's request, Academician Cui, who was analyzing samples in the low-temperature superconducting materials laboratory next door, frowned suspiciously.

Holding a large stack of materials in his arms, Liu Feng said with a smile: "Yes, I found some interesting things when I was researching the literature, and if I want to operate it in that laboratory, I may need to use a dark-field microscope and a phase contrast microscope, as you know, these two things are only available in that laboratory." ”

The reason is actually made up by him, although he has a good 'friendship' with Academician Cui, but he has not yet put his heart into his heart to that extent!

It's not that I doubt Academician Cui's character, it's just to avoid some unnecessary trouble.

After all, this research is not only related to room temperature superconducting materials, but also has considerable value in the research of other materials.

Especially for the military industry.

"Okay, I'll say hello to the teacher in that laboratory in a while, as for whether it can be done, you go to the 707 office of the laboratory building to find Professor Jiang Yang, and he will answer your request." ”

Although he was curious about why Liu Feng came to the military laboratory to do this kind of experiment, Professor Jiang Yang didn't ask much, but he just thought that Liu Feng wanted to take a broad view and wanted to find inspiration, so he readily agreed.

If it was someone else borrowing these equipment, he would hesitate somewhat, and if he was not familiar with it, he might refuse, but Liu Feng is different, he is the first scholar in China to win the Dynamite Award, and he also holds a major project related to the national economy and people's livelihood, plus there is Academician Cui Kun as a guarantee, and the comrades of the security department will conduct an audit trail, so there is no need to worry about security and confidentiality.

The two professors agreed so happily that Liu Feng was a little embarrassed.

I knew that they were so good at talking, and he made up such a clumsy excuse as a microscope!

"Is there anything else?" Seeing that Liu Feng didn't speak, Professor Jiang asked with a smile.

Liu Feng shook his head and said, "No, thank you, professor." ”

"Can you do the experiment alone? Do you want to recruit someone to help you?" Professor Jiang's eyes flashed with a hint of curiosity and heat, after all, being able to do experiments with Huaguo's only dynamite award winner is also a big temptation.

Even if his old man doesn't care much about those false names now, this is Liu Feng!

It's just that Liu Feng politely declined: "Thank you, professor, it's just that I don't bother you, I want to try to do it myself." ”

He certainly couldn't have agreed.

An expert in the military industrial system like Professor Jiang is afraid that he will be able to see the problem at a glance.

At that time, many things could not be explained by themselves, no matter who designed the experiment, why it was designed the way it was, and how all of this was done...... When he did the experiment with Academician Cui, it took him a lot of effort to fool the past, and this experiment was more complicated and difficult to explain than the previous experiments......

In short, this experiment is destined to be done only by himself.

The disappointment in Professor Jiang's eyes flashed, but he still smiled and said, "That's okay, as long as you don't break the instrument, otherwise, don't blame me for going to the capital to sue the emperor." ”

Knowing that Professor Jiang was joking with himself, Liu Feng smiled, patted his chest and promised: "No, you can rest assured! If an instrument is really broken, my 180 catties of meat will be mortgaged to you!"

"Haha!" Professor Jiang laughed out loud, "A few instruments can exchange us for a dynamite award boss, and the people here in our military industrial system are afraid that you can break a few more!"

Liu Feng: "......"

In the end, Liu Feng still got permission from Professor Jiang and the key from the security personnel, and his next plan can finally be carried out.

However, Liu Feng didn't know how profound the impact of his experiment this time would be, so that the next development of events completely caught him off guard......
