With these instruments at hand, Hou Jinli just picked out the scalp, and he couldn't analyze the reason.

At the very least, he'd have to do an XRD test for this thing first.

Of course, it is best to scan the SEM electron microscope to make the situation clearer at a glance.

If the photograph is "interesting" enough, it may be a one-zone SCI.

Hey, I wish I had my own lab......

Sighing silently in his heart, looking at the bag of black waste in his hand, Hou Jinli hesitated.

Eventually, instead of throwing it in the waste bucket, he threw it on the lab table next to him.

Noticing his colleague's movements, Yu Junda glanced at him and asked curiously.

"What are you doing with that thing?"

"I'm going to write a proposal to see if I can apply for an SEM machine and analyze the composition of these things," after a pause, Hou Jinli continued, "I think this thing is quite interesting." ”

Yu Junda couldn't help but complain: "Isn't this thing carbon slag?" What is there to look into? ”

Of course, it could be potassium permanganate residues, or a mixture of the two, or something else.

In the organic business, you can always get all kinds of weird things, at least he doesn't see weirdness.

Hou Jinli picked up the bag of waste again and threw it into his hand: "It's still a little different from the cinder to the touch, I don't believe you can touch it yourself." ”

After pinching and rubbing it in his hand for a long time, Yu Junda frowned and said, "Why don't I feel it?" ”

Convinced that his feelings were not illusions, Hou Jinli said in an affirmative tone: "If you touch it a lot, you will feel it." ”

Yu Junda: "......"

I don't know if it's his delusion, he always feels that this conversation is inexplicably a little dirty.

……

In fact, both superconducting graphene and SG-1 materials themselves are completely new directions.

Although many materials research institutes in the direction of carbon nano or superconductivity may have heard of its name from the MRS autumn meeting, they still know little about the more detailed things.

It is precisely for this reason that there is still a lot to be explored.

Hou Jinli is not the only one who has become interested in the problems encountered in the SG-1 material-related experiments, nor is he the only one who has moved to study the idea in depth, but he is probably the only one who has become interested in the waste materials in the experiments.

In short, after some twists and turns, he used his spare time to write the proposal report.

In the end, this report, along with other proposal reports, was sent to Lu Zhou's desk......

"An unidentified black substance born during the preparation of SG-1 material?"

Looking at the opening report in his hand, Lu Zhou's expression was a little strange.

It can't be carbon slag, right?

In other words, the title of this opening report is simple enough......

Beyond the title part, Lu Zhou looked directly at the text part and read it line by line.

At the Jinling Institute for Advanced Study, in addition to the National Natural Science Foundation of China and the Municipal Scientific Research Fund, another way for researchers to apply for funding and equipment is to choose the institute's proprietary fund.

As long as the selected research direction is consistent with or related to the key research direction of the Institute, and as long as the research value of the topic can be clearly explained in the proposal report, the pass rate is still relatively high.

Lu Zhou has always been generous in terms of funding, and he encourages researchers to delve into the problems found in the experiments, even if the findings are not necessarily economical, as long as the findings are meaningful enough.

After all, many outstanding research results in the history of science have been discovered in such and such accidents.

Lu Zhou, who was sitting in the office chair, thought for a moment, and finally signed his name on it.

Overall, the proposal was not badly written, and at least it gave him the idea that it was worth a try.

Six of the ten proposal reports were approved, and the remaining four were rejected by him because they did not meet the specifications for various reasons.

Lu Zhou, who had finally done all the work, stretched his waist, got up from his office chair, and walked to the side of the coffee machine to make himself a cup of coffee.

At this time, there was a knock on the door.

"The door is unlocked, just come in."

The door opened, and it was Yang Xu who appeared at the door.

A few days ago, on behalf of the Institute of Computational Materials, he went to Zheda for a visit and exchange, and he only rushed back from there today.

Seeing Lu Zhou standing next to the coffee machine, Yang Xu smiled and said, "Don't you consider hiring a secretary?" ”

"Not for the time being," Lu Zhou smiled and lifted the freshly brewed coffee, "My coffee making skills are quite good, do you want to try it?" ”

Yang Xu smiled and quipped: "The Nobel Prize boss invited me to drink coffee, which I can't miss." ”

Taking the coffee cup from Lu Zhou's hand, Yang Xu took a sip and hesitated slightly.

"Isn't this instant?"

"Even if it's instant, you have to grasp the timing of the water temperature and adding water......" Coughing lightly, Lu Zhou diverted the topic, "Don't be idle, how is the situation over there?" ”

Yang Xu said in a relaxed tone: "The situation is quite optimistic, there are many professors who are interested in our proposed cooperative research plan, and they can help us digest at least more than 20 topics." ”

Hearing this, Lu Zhou nodded with satisfaction.

"Good job, thank you."

"It's okay," Yang Xu waved his hand and said with a smile, "This is part of my job." ”

Controlled nuclear fusion is a huge project, and the material alone is enough to dismantle more than 100 topics, which is only expected, not unexpected.

Obviously, it is difficult to eat all these research topics by relying on a few universities in Jinling and the fledgling Institute for Advanced Study, and it is imperative to cooperate with other universities and research institutions.

Materials are one of the strong majors in folding, especially in the direction of carbon nano.

In a few days, Yang Xu will have to go to Shuimu's side, and the more allies he can win, the better.

After a pause, Yang Xu continued: "By the way, there is one more thing, last night there was an email from the Baosheng Group, and they have formulated a set of drafts for the industrial production plan of SG-1. ”

Hearing this, Lu Zhou's face suddenly showed an interested look.

In terms of enterprises, Baer Group, a subsidiary of China Airlines, is their main partner and is responsible for solving the problem of industrial production of SG-1 materials.

The two parties complement each other's strengths and have signed a joint research agreement. The research institute is responsible for solving technical problems, and the Baer Group is responsible for solving design problems, and is responsible for implementing specific production work.

Now, Baer has completed the draft of the production plan.

For Lu Zhou, this is probably the best news he has heard these days.

"Already done? Send it to me in the mailbox in a moment. ”

Yang Xu nodded and said, "It's already been sent." In addition, in order to complete the final design of the production line, they needed us to send several researchers to help. ”

Lu Zhou thought for a moment and said, "Then send a few people over, you can consider the candidates, and try not to delay the progress of our side." ”

"Okay."

Yang Xu nodded, turned around and left the office.

Looking at Yang Xu's back, Lu Zhou then looked at the calendar placed in the corner of the table.

It's getting closer and closer to the end of the year.

It seems that his side has to step up as well......
