Chapter 269: Smart Chips

Sun Kai said to them: "Mr. Li, Professor Wang." Let's go to the processing workshop to see the processing success rate of carbon-based chips. ”

Li Hao also sent an invitation to Wang Rongzhe: "The processing workshop is not far ahead, and I also want to see what the carbon-based chip looks like." Let's take a look. ”

Wang Rongzhe also agreed, and under the leadership of Sun Kai, they rushed to the processing workshop responsible for processing chips together.

They soon came to a white wall, and several chairs on wheels came from the side, and stopped in front of them to provide them with a place to sit, just as many as they could.

Anyone can see that this is a chair controlled by artificial intelligence.

After Li Hao invited them to sit down, Sun Kai's finger tapped a few times in front of him, only to see that the white wall immediately became transparent.

At the same time, blue handwriting appeared on the glass wall: "Welcome to the vacuum dust-free intelligent processing workshop." ”

Wang Rongzhe was very puzzled when he saw Sun Kai's movements along the way, and he asked Li Hao: "Chairman Li, I found that the people in your company are very special, it seems that all the staff wear contact lenses to work. Is this to protect the eyes?

And they often gesture in the air, is this the agreed gesture for communication in your lab? ”

Li Hao saw Wang Rongzhe's confused eyes, and he explained with a smile: "This is our company's unique artificial intelligence technology plus scientific research assistance system. ”

He pointed to the blue handwriting in front of him and said, "This blue word is displayed with a virtual light curtain, and in the eyes of people who don't wear glasses, these are the only things on the light curtain."

We distinguish between the rank of the researcher and the resources available to him. Give each person different contact lenses so they can see what is relevant to them.

As for their gestures, they are operating the device with a virtual light curtain. Through artificial intelligence technology, it is possible to recognize the form of his movements. ”

A look of envy flashed on Wang Rongzhe's face, and he asked Li Hao: "The higher the person, the more things he sees. It won't seem scattered and slow down their scientific progress. ”

Li Hao explained with a smile: "Of course not, the content we display is based on private customization." They can only see things that are relevant to his status.

For example, in my eyes, most of them are summarizing. The specific experimental qualities, I did not make special requests, and they are not displayed on the light curtain I saw.

The researcher in charge of the material only displays data related to the material. The engineer in charge of machining, he can only see the data associated with machining. ”

Li Haozheng was introducing their company's scientific research assistance system to Wang Rongzhe, and heard Sun Kai say to them: "The chip processing has begun, and the engineers in the background will deal with the problems generated by the machine in real time according to the situation." ”

They all focused on the machine shop.

I saw the robot transport the box to the processing car, and a robot full of tools came out.

It opened the box with a delicate technique, and inside was a dark green substance, which was supposed to be a carbon-based semiconductor.

It is an area of one square meter and only as thick as a sheet of A4 paper.

Li Hao looked at a box full of carbon-based semiconductors, estimated to be about 300.

Fortunately, the cost of processing a piece of material is nearly 9 million yuan, and the cost of processing a box of materials is also nearly 9 million yuan, and the cost difference between them is less than 10,000 yuan.

As for why Sun Kai said just now that it takes nearly 9 million to process one, this is the total value after calculating the success rate. The higher the success rate of a material, the cheaper the product.

One of the characteristics of industrialization is that the larger the scale, the cheaper the whole product is.

I only saw the robot carrying this carbon-based semiconductor to the processing equipment.

It's a rudimentary device, with a superimposed laser on top and a grating in the middle that controls the optical path.

Through the change of the grating, the carbon-based semiconductor is directly molded at one time.

The drawing of the carbon-based chip designed by Professor Wang Rongzhe has been entered into the computer, and the engineers have adjusted the shape of the grating according to this design drawing.

I only saw that in the processing workshop, the lights went out immediately. The wall in front of it also immediately became opaque.

The time has not yet reached a second, and it feels like it just flickered, and the processing workshop immediately lit up.

I only saw the light curtain on the glass wall in front of me showing "Processing failed, processing is being repeated." ”

They saw that the processing workshop in front of them was constantly flashing, and the processing process of carbon-based semiconductors was quickly completed.

Li Hao can see that the processing success rate is only 0.1% on the light curtain.

Soon the lights in the room turned on, Sun Kai looked at the data, and said to Li Hao: "Mr. Li, our processing workshop has used up all the materials. A total of six complete carbon-based chips were processed. ”

Li Hao said happily: "This result is very good, you have to collect the data this time and make persistent efforts." ”

Soon, the intelligent robot sent out the processed six carbon-based chips.

Li Hao asked Wang Rongzhe: "Professor Wang, our processing success rate is a little low, you sent so many carbon-based semiconductors, and only successfully completed six silicon-based chips.

Do you need to take the material and process it again, only six sheets are enough for you to use? ”

Wang Rongzhe said happily: "Six carbon-based chips are very good, which is enough for us to verify the technology. I just wanted to try these materials, and I'm glad I succeeded in making one. ”

After Wang Rongzhe finished speaking, he took the tightly packed chip from the robot's hand. Observe carefully.

He looked at the smoothness of the surface of the chip, and he was very satisfied with the finished chip at first glance.

He handed over the chip to Zhu Yanbo and instructed him: "Keep two of the complete chips, and cut the rest according to the predetermined line and make a chip simulator for testing the designed functional area." ”

When Li Hao heard Wang Rongzhe say this, he knew that the chip design drawing was incomplete.

What Wang Rongzhe is giving them now is definitely not a complete chip design drawing. Instead, the various functional areas of the chip are split. functional modules formed.

He thought that this was normal, and it was impossible to just cooperate, so Wang Rongzhe handed over all the core technologies with confidence.

Li Hao saw that the chip processing was completed, and he invited Wang Rongzhe to come to the office.

After they sat down separately, Li Hao and Wang Rongzhe discussed cooperation, and he said tentatively: "Professor Wang, how is the performance of your chip." Now the most cutting-edge field of chips is smart chips.

Most AI is programmed in software. The smart chip has been intelligently designed in the hardware microstructure of the chip. A chip that thinks is formed. ”

Wang Rongzhe said helplessly: "I know that this is the way forward for high-end chips now." The Cambrian chip researched by the Chinese Academy of Sciences is the use of artificial intelligence technology in hardware.

It's just that this chip was developed by me alone, and I am limited by my knowledge. The direction of smart chips is also not considered. ”

Li Hao waited for Wang Rongzhe to say this, and it happened that his expectations were very similar.

It was the chip that he developed alone, and now it is in the research and development stage. Only then will they be able to cooperate and master part of the patent for this chip.
