In the field of solar energy, many materials have been tried as the best medium for solar energy conversion, but after so many years of research, scientists have finally determined that only silicon wafers are the most suitable medium for solar energy conversion.
At present, the world's largest solar technology research and development companies, the mainstream technology they use is still how to adjust silicon wafers and how to produce smaller chips, so that they are more suitable for converting the heat generated by the collected solar rays into electrical energy for storage.
Because of the delay in the conversion technology can not make a breakthrough, so the conversion efficiency of solar energy has not been too high, scientists have tried various methods to change the arrangement of silicon chips, to improve the photoelectric conversion rate, but the effect has been not good.
This has also caused the current use of solar energy has not been able to expand, and the utilization and efficiency have not been able to reach the highest embarrassing situation.
Some scientists have also thought of the key to solving this problem, that is, to adjust the internal structure of silicon wafers, so as to achieve the purpose of more efficient conversion of solar energy into electricity, but this involves many other things, so many scientists are still tackling this technology, but the results are very little.
Matt and Edwards are undoubtedly experts in this area and pioneers in this field, as early as when they met Jin Xiaoqiang, they mentioned to him that they wanted to produce the latest silicon wafers, and they also did simulation experiments on computers.
Their most basic idea is to adjust the molecular structure inside the silicon wafer through certain technical means, so that the molecular arrangement of the silicon wafer changes the traditional order, so that it can more effectively catch and collect light, and the fundamental principle is to use the adjustment of the internal molecular arrangement of the silicon wafer to make the two inefficient red photons in the panel more quickly synthesize into a yellow photon, so as to achieve the purpose of the same frequency as the yellow photon in the sun's rays. In this way, the photons in the sun's rays can be captured more effectively and quickly, and they are converted into electrical energy for storage.
And this technology is also named turbo solar technology.
At the beginning of the cooperation, when Jin Xiaoqiang visited their laboratory, the two of them had done a demonstration experiment for Jin Xiaoqiang on the computer, the principle of this technology, as well as the molecular arrangement inside the new silicon wafer they virtualized, are very reasonable in Jin Xiaoqiang's view, so in his opinion, the feasibility of this technology is also very high.
But now that almost two years have passed, Jin Xiaoqiang has invested more than 300 million dollars in this laboratory, and of course he hopes to see the results of this experiment.
But just after Jin Xiaoqiang asked the two experts his own questions, Matt and Edwards showed very embarrassed looks on their faces.
"I'm sorry...... In the past two years, the two of us have worked hard to carry out more than 10,000 experiments with many student assistants, but in the end, each silicon wafer produced is not very ideal in terms of internal structural adjustment. We have also tried a lot of methods, such as improving the silicon wafer growth furnace, or when cultivating the silicon wafer in the growth furnace, the silicon wafer is subjected to optical frequency or sound frequency impact vibration, etc., but the final results are not ideal, and the grown silicon wafers have not been able to reach the kind of molecular arrangement we want, so we have not been able to make much progress in this turbocharged solar energy at present. But rest assured, Misterkin, we have accumulated a lot of data, and when we go back, we will definitely continue to increase our efforts to conduct experiments and strive to overcome this problem as soon as possible. …,
Matt is more talkative than Edwards, and he also knows that in the past year or so, they have spent more than 300 million US dollars, but they have not made any progress in the most critical projects, so he also feels very anxious, and at the same time is worried that Jin Xiaoqiang will be confident in the listing of this project because of the delay in making a breakthrough in this project, and stop funding for this project.
That's why he stumbled and explained to Jin Xiaoqiang, for fear that Jin Xiaoqiang would be unhappy and cut off the supply of funds to their laboratory in the future.
You must know that scientists like them have a lot of research in the world, and after studying a project to a certain depth, everyone will have their own ideas and opinions about the project.
However, if you want to be able to put your ideas and insights into practice, you need to invest a lot of money, which comes from university funding on the one hand, state funding on the other, and finally finding the right investors, sharing the research results with each other, and then getting investment from the investors.
Now Matt and Edwards have resigned from the university to specialize in research, so there is definitely no funding from the university, let alone a national grant, and if it has nothing to do with the government's scientific research department, it is even more difficult to get a grant than to ascend to the sky.
If you want to find a suitable investor, it is even more difficult, first of all, you must invest not to interfere too much in their experiments, and secondly, you must be able to spend a lot of money on them without interruption.
Now it is rare for them to meet Jin Xiaoqiang, such an investor who is very much in line with the standards in their hearts, so of course they don't want Jin Xiaoqiang to quit because of their temporary failure.
That's why the two scientists will explain the reasons for their failure to Jin Xiaoqiang in a low voice, and they have to say a lot of encouraging words to give Jin Xiaoqiang hope and hope that he will not withdraw his investment.
To be honest, Jin Xiaoqiang was really disappointed after hearing Matt and Edwards' answers, as a businessman, of course he didn't want his more than 300 million dollars to be wasted like this, but now Matt and Edwards have been unable to make a breakthrough for a long time, which also makes him very anxious.
So do you still have to stick to this project?
Suddenly, Jin Xiaoqiang's mind had a flash of inspiration, he thought of the bracelet composed of unknown biological cells in his hand, it was by relying on the nano cells secreted by this bracelet that he was able to adjust the molecular structure of his engine oil, so as to achieve the maximum cooling effect, and then applied it to his dual-clutch transmission and turbocharger, so what if this kind of cell was used in the cultivation and growth of this silicon wafer?
Will this cell also be able to adjust the arrangement of the internal molecular structure of the silicon wafer as it grows?
If it could, wouldn't the problem of adjusting the internal molecular structure of silicon wafers, which had plagued Matt and Edwards, be solved?
Thinking of this, Jin Xiaoqiang's spirit couldn't help but be lifted, yes, why didn't he think of this earlier?
You must know that before, I have been concerned about the development of automobiles, probably ignoring the large-scale application of this kind of cell, and I also inadvertently relied on this nano cell to solve the problem of engine oil, and because I entrusted the research work of this kind of cell to Dr. Herris, so I have not paid much attention to it, ignoring the divergent application of this cell organism.
…,
If this kind of cell can really change the molecular structure of any substance, then can't it produce any substance it wants?
You must know that many substances in the world at present, in fact, the most critical essence is to show their different material properties through the different order of their molecules, so as to reflect different material properties in the appearance.
So a small change in molecular structure is not obvious on the surface, but when the molecules that change the order of the arrangement are combined, maybe a new and unique substance is born......
Jin Xiaoqiang sat there silently, but a brainstorm had already set off in his mind, and the more he thought about it, the more excited he became, because he had unconsciously thought of a lot of difficult problems that he had not considered before.
If you can put all of your ideas into practice, then in the future, there may be a new era of technological revolution in the world, and the essence of this revolution will start from the revolution of the material itself......
Matt and Edwards, who were sitting opposite Jin Xiaoqiang, were silent when they saw where Jin Xiaoqiang had been sitting, and at this time they were also muttering in their hearts, for fear that Jin Xiaoqiang would be annoyed and withdraw from their company, and looking at Jin Xiaoqiang's unhappy look, the more they thought about it, the more scared they became.
After all, whoever changed and threw more than 300 million dollars out, but didn't see anything, will be annoyed.
"Well, so be it! Matt, after you go back this time, you will first go to the Celestial Empire, where to set up a silicon wafer production base for me, small enough for laboratory nature. I'm going to recruit a bunch of people domestically, and then I'm going to walk on two legs and do research both domestically and in Australia. You can rest assured, your funding will not be reduced, but in order to complete the public relations of this technology as soon as possible, I need you to provide some information and technology, you think it's okay, right? ”
Jin Xiaoqiang's words are undoubtedly the voice of heaven for Matt and Edwards, not only will they not withdraw their investment, but will increase their efforts, although they need to contribute technology and processes from their own side, but as long as he still supports this scientific research project, then it is easy to say anything.
What's more, people are not trying to withdraw their investment, but to increase their experiments, and plan to walk on two legs. )
