Chapter 398: Terahertz Technology

Tech villa, underground vault.

In the days that followed, Ye Hua plunged headlong into the development of wireless transmission technology, and unlike Nikola Tesla, he is now the richest man in the world, and he has a huge power to allocate global resources.

There is no doubt that Nikola Tesla is one of the greatest genius inventors and scientists in the history of mankind.

More than a hundred years ago, Tesla could have become the richest man in the world at that time, and as the inventor of alternating current, within a year, he could have become the richest man in the world by virtue of patents.

But he chose to develop it for free to the society.

And he himself died in great debt before his death, died in poverty, died of poverty and was almost forgotten by the world.

Tesla has nearly 1,000 famous inventions in his lifetime, 11 times declined the Nobel Prize, he behaves strangely, research is advanced, it can be said that the current mobile phone wireless charging technology is what he played more than 100 years ago.

No one can understand his work, and he has been single for 86 years and refuses to date a lady.

He is the prototype of "Mad Scientist".

If Nikola Tesla dedicated his life to the scientific cause of mankind, Ye Hua is not as noble as him, and he is not even a person at all.

Tesla is in huge debt, and Ye Hua is super-rich; Tesla has been single all his life, and Ye Hua's mine has taken off; Tesla's love is scientific invention, and Ye Hua's love is secular life.

It's completely two worlds, but even if you don't have to be a person all the way, you can do the same thing - wireless transmission technology.

Not all the way, people can change the world.

……

"Xiaoyin, transfer the materials on the list to the purchasing department, and prepare them for me within half a month." In the underground warehouse, Ye Hua collected the list of experimental equipment and required equipment on the floating screen to confirm and upload.

"Yes, master."

Therefore, science and art, like art, need to be supported by capital.

If Nikola Tesla could figure this out, his achievements would have been even more astonishing, and the United States might have one more Tesla family, the Tesla consortium.

But there are no ifs.

Maybe it's because he is disdainful of worldly things, and even arrogant about them, but even if he is known as a "scientific superman", he is still a mortal of flesh and blood in the secular world after all.

How can a mortal be above the world?

But there are no ifs in the world, Tesla is undoubtedly a great scientist and inventor, but Ye Hua can never learn from him, especially his worldly concepts.

It is said that Tesla only sleeps two hours a day, and if it is true, it is hard to imagine how he lived to be in his 80s at that time.

And since Ye Hua broke the cocoon and was reborn, he actually only slept for more than two hours a day, and he was full of energy without being affected in the slightest.

But even so, he may have six or seven more hours than the average person, but the time he devotes to work and career is actually about the same as that of an ordinary office worker.

Because...

As a lower-half creature that likes to indulge in "cannon battles" the most, the humanoid self-propelled cannons with many ore divisions must be fed to everyone if they have fun with the crowd and uphold the principle of fairness.

The extra time is almost used in this area, so the genius is the best master of balance.

In the meantime, Ye Hua poured a cup of hot tea and took two sips before starting to work, gearing up to undertake Tesla's biggest long-cherished wish to bring wireless power transmission in the true sense to human civilization.

Wireless power transmission is an "old technology" that pioneers began to play with more than 100 years ago, and its characteristic is that the point-to-point transmission nature is not fixed, which can avoid many of the problems that exist in wired electricity.

Nowadays, there are two types of wireless power transmission methods in the world: "electromagnetic induction" and "resonance".

The first electromagnetic induction type is similar to the principle of transformers commonly used in power systems, and the products that currently use electromagnetic induction to transmit electric energy include miniaturized portable electric products such as electric toothbrushes, mobile phones, cameras, etc., which are wirelessly charged by the charging base. The smartphone wireless charging gimmick is actually just that, and the working principle is that the electric energy transmitter coil is installed in the charging base, and the receiving coil is installed in the electronic device.

The second kind of resonant wireless power transmission is similar to the principle of wireless communication, in which the electromagnetic waves of the resonant circuit at the transmitter end are open and permeate the entire space in all directions, and the resonant circuit at the receiving end resonates at a specific frequency, so as to realize the transmission of energy. However, there is electromagnetic radiation, the greater the transmission power, the farther the distance, the lower the efficiency, and the more serious the radiation.

However, Ye Hua decisively abandoned these two technical means at the forefront of current research, and did not even improve them on this basis, because they did not have much effect.

He chose a completely new wireless power transmission technology, the terahertz coupled resonance principle.

The core technology point is terahertz!

Nikola Tesla is said to have such a great memory that he could memorize an entire book and recite it at will, and he was able to imagine what the entire device would look like in his brain, and then construct it without writing down anything.

Today's Ye Hua also has such capabilities, and he has a more powerful holographic assistance system than Tesla, which can undoubtedly greatly improve the efficiency of technology development and shorten a development time cycle.

If you want to develop a wireless power transmission equipment based on terahertz coupling resonance technology, you need to get a lot of technical points, and it is no exaggeration to say that getting this set of wireless power transmission equipment can make Ye Hua win several Nobel Prizes.

In fact, the technological breakthrough in the application of siene materials contains a Nobel Prize-level technological breakthrough, and the scientific community's call for Ye Hua to win the prize is getting higher and higher, but the Nobel Prize selection body is still relatively cautious, many scientific and technological breakthroughs may take more than ten years or even longer to be recognized for awards, and the Nobel Prize is still very authoritative in the field of natural science.

As for the economics prize, the peace prize, and so on, just look at it.

Another thing that makes the Nobel Prize organization a little helpless is that from all aspects, Ye Hua's interest in the Nobel Prize is lacking.

……

Terahertz coupled resonance technology, there are too many technical gaps in this.

The first one is terahertz (THz), there is a vacuum zone in the electromagnetic spectrum that has not been effectively recognized and used by human beings, and its frequency range is 100GHz~10THz, which is located between microwave and infrared radiation, that is, the so-called "terahertz gap".

Terahertz had different names in different fields in the early days, being called infrared in the field of optics, and submillimeter waves, ultra-microwaves, etc. in the field of electronics.

If Ye Hua wants to engage in terahertz coupling resonance technology, he must first get the technical point of terahertz.

At present, no institution or materials company can produce high-power, portable, continuously tunable and low-cost Thz emission sources, as well as filters that meet real-world requirements, and there is no passive detector that can directly detect terahertz rays at room temperature.

Ye Hua wants to use terahertz, and he has to get these things out.

The wireless transmission must use terahertz electromagnetic waves, other wave frequency radiation is more or less harmful to the human body, but the energy released by terahertz is very small, will not produce harmful photoionization in the human body, so, compared with X-rays, terahertz rays can really enter people's lives.

Otherwise, who would dare to use it? Products that have great radiation damage to the human body are not even possible to be marketed.

The intensity of electromagnetic waves decreases exponentially with distance, the higher the frequency, the greater the damage, the low frequency, the energy of electromagnetic waves is small, and if the energy absorbed when penetrating the human body is not enough to ionize the electrons of molecules or atoms, there will be almost no harm.

However, like X-rays, there is an ionization effect, and long-term irradiation will damage the electrical properties of cells, so that cells can find damage, lesions, and cancer.

Because water absorbs electromagnetic waves greatly, and the human body has 70% of water, but the amount of electromagnetic radiation in the air is very small, some bands of electromagnetic waves, such as very hot terahertz electromagnetic waves, are similar to the vibration of organic matter and macromolecules in the human body, the radiation amount is small, and it is almost harmless.

Without a doubt, it is an excellent choice for wireless power transmission.

Ye Hua sent the list of required equipment to the purchasing department, and during the week of waiting, he was not idle, using the holographic assistance system to make design drawings.

He was able to envision the entire device in his head, and he was able to construct it precisely without writing down any data.

But a person's efficiency is too low, and if he wants to be faster, he needs team help.

If Ye Hua does it alone, it is like a classical computer can only come one by one, and mash out the design drawings, and then form a team to distribute the drawings, just like a quantum computer, parallel processing, and the efficiency is greatly increased.
