164 The mentality is about to collapse

In the test-on-a-chip lab, several experts gathered again, and everyone's heads were once again looking at the display showing the results of the analysis.

"Less output noise than traditional classical structures? How can it be? With so many pipes working together, it should be higher. ”

"That's it, Lao Zhu, are you mistaken?"

"How could it go wrong? I've checked the instrument again and again, and you can see the results for yourself! If you don't believe me, there's still a chip over there, you guys do it again. ”

"Huh? Is the output noise really small? How? Or is it an example? ”

"Come again, come again, you have to figure out why."

So a few people started to get busy again, and soon the results of the proofreading came out.

"Lao Zhu is not mistaken, the output noise is indeed smaller than the classical structure, and the reason is also found, the chip adopts the way of intervals between the signal and the ground. This is a dynamic working model, signal injection, set the signal peak to 1V, the period is 1ns and 0.1ns, the rise time and fall time are 4% of the cycle, the duty cycle is 0.5, the signal line is connected to the lower end of the open circuit, the upper end is connected to the 50 Ω load, according to the circuit model calculation results, the impact of peak crosstalk noise on its performance is almost negligible. Because even when it is running at full load, the adjacent signal processing is always arranged at intervals, that is, there are two kinds of ordering: internal and external passing. ”

"What about the impedance parameters?"

"Here, it's just measured by the formula that comes with the instrument. If the results are accurate, it shows that this carbon nanotube bundle channel filling technique can improve the signal transmission performance, and the influence of quantum capacitance is basically negligible, only the change of resistance and inductance. This thing was ahead of its time. The point is that I haven't seen this kind of carbon nanotube in a magazine before, whose product is this? Is energy producing? Does anyone of you know? ”

Several people looked at each other, and from this attitude and expression, everyone could see that the other party did not know that materials science had made such great progress in this regard.

"Well, let's not talk about whether it can be mass-produced, it's already amazing that this thing can be designed, okay? No, shouldn't we make the focus of our work clear, first test the chip performance clearly, and the process level of 180nm can achieve this kind of work efficiency. The noise output can be controlled so well, and more importantly, this structure is indeed not there before, although the silicon has not been completely abandoned, but the main body of the chip is already a carbon structure! Ladies and gentlemen, without any patent shackles, from 180nm to 1nm, what does this new structure of chip represent, you all know? ”

Well, this remark stunned everyone.

No one really thinks about this when they just fall into a frenzy of work, but now that it's brought up, the big names in the industry only need to use the scraps of their brains to understand what it means. It is no exaggeration to say that the establishment of the World Semiconductor Alliance and the relevant policies promulgated have made the impact on China dispensable because of this epoch-making technology. It can even be said that it will be of great help to Huaxia to independently embark on another chip road.

You don't even need to wait that long.

After this new structure is exposed, the other side will probably not have enough confidence to formulate various policies......

"yes, I just don't know if it supports the design of large integrated circuits now, after all, this is a simple narrowband chip." Quan Maoguo said regretfully.

"No, Lao Quan, who said in the car just now that if it is really a new structure, then even if the design is the simplest power management chip, it can be satisfied. This narrowband chip is much more complex than a PMIC with only a few circuits, right? ”

"This ...... Haha, isn't this more demanding after seeing hope...... By the way, are you feeling hungry? ”

"Wait, it's past three o'clock in the afternoon? If you don't say it, I really don't feel hungry, and this lab won't tell me? ”

"Gotta get here today, right? There should be more than a few chips that have been made here, and I will ask Ning Xiao later to see if there are any more. Let's take it back to the institute and study it more closely. ”

"Are people willing to give?"

"Hey, it shouldn't be, we don't have any interests."

"Uh...... That, Lao Quan, do you think it's a little sudden to talk to Ning Xiao about technology transfer today. ”

"Hehe, Xiao Sun, do you want to help you Datang Precision get the technology? I guess if you really have this idea, don't care if it's sudden or not, it's best to mention it today while waiting for Liu Si to be there, otherwise it may be a fairy fight in two days. ”

Although the six academicians, who are more than 300 years old, keep talking, they are doing the finishing work in an orderly manner.

Although several people rarely work in the front-line laboratory, it can be seen that the business ability has not been completely discarded, and soon the laboratory was restored to its original appearance in accordance with the laboratory standards, and the chip used for testing was also put into the designated container according to the requirements written on the wall, and then they walked out of the laboratory together.

……

Outside the R&D center, Chen Yonggang has accompanied Liu Si to the green belt in the R&D center several times after lunch.

When it was time for lunch, Chen Yonggang didn't think about informing the academicians and elders in the laboratory to eat first and then get busy, but the problem was that before entering the laboratory, mobile phones and other communication products were left outside. It's too troublesome to enter the laboratory, and there is no way to notify the inside from the outside, and for Chen Yonggang and Liu Si, who are not familiar with laboratory operations, they really can't notify the inside.

Yes, Ning Xiao didn't accompany him, he wanted to go back to school to rest first on the grounds that he was too tired from studying chips in the recent retreat.

This reason can be said to be unassailable, and no one can find fault with it.

In fact, Liu Si wanted to pull Ning Xiao to ask more about things, but after all, he was not very familiar with Ning Xiao, so he gave Chen Yonggang a look, and the principal just didn't see it, so he could only say a few polite words and watch Ning Xiao leave.

There's no way, speaking of which, he really hasn't been able to get to Ning Xiao.

Liu Si also knew that Ning Xiao probably didn't look down on the state's allocation. After all, this is a young man who could pay trillions in taxes. People can do anything to compete for a project, and this person can invest an additional 50 billion yuan in other people's projects, just to poach people.

Speaking of which, it's surprising that this guy is willing to retreat and study chips. After all, billionaires have so many options if they want to enjoy life.

Fortunately, the expert testing team can still be trusted.

As a result, by noon, the people had not yet come out. In the mentality of keeping the results confidential for the time being, Liu Si actually didn't want to disturb the work of the high-end academician group, so Chen Yonggang simply found someone to bring a thermos box and prepared meals for the academicians.

Staying in a closed environment only made people feel depressed, so the two simply went to the green belt outside the research center and scattered.

"Lao Chen, I just observed that there don't seem to be many people who go to the cafeteria to eat at noon? When we dined, I roughly counted it, and there were more than 50 people before and after, and there were only more than 50 people in such a large R&D center? ”

"Oh, do research on these people, how many people will go to the cafeteria on time to eat? Many of them are sent by one person from one laboratory and directly brought to the entire laboratory. ”

"I've also observed this, how can you say so much? There were only about a dozen people who brought food. ”

"Haha, Liu Si, as you know, this R&D center has just been opened, and it is normal for there to be few people. I'm always looking for people, but it's still hard to find excellent researchers. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been like that with Shuangdan University before. ”

"Don't talk about anything else, let's get to the point. So just such a few people, you have overcome a problem that has plagued us for decades? And bypass all patent barriers? ”

"Well, how do you say this, although I don't know much about it, but doing research doesn't depend on a lot of people, right?"

Hearing this, Liu Si glanced at Chen Yonggang, wanting to refute this obviously layman's words, but he didn't know how to speak for a while.

After all, those experts have not come out of the laboratory yet, which is actually very revealing. If Ning Xiao was just cheating, such as someone who simply rubbed off other people's product logos, it should have been discovered.

In other words, the longer the experts stay in the lab, the more likely it is that Ning Xiao is extremely unlikely.

Fortunately, the phone rang at the right time, which made Liu Si less embarrassed.

"yes, okay."

After a brief answer, Liu Si looked at Chen Yonggang and said, "The experts are out, let's go back quickly." ”

"Hurry up! This way, this ......"

……

"Academician You, Academician Quan, why are you two alone? What's going on inside? ”

As soon as they walked into the rest area outside the laboratory, Liu Si and Chen Yonggang only saw You Wanzhang and Quan Maoguo sitting at the table eating, but they didn't see the shadows of the other four academicians.

"They called, why is it just you? What about Ning Xiao? ”

You Wanzhang ignored Liu Si's question and asked directly.

At this time, it was naturally not these two people that they wanted to see the most, every academician had a stomach of questions they wanted to ask Ning Xiao.

"Oh, Ning Xiao said he was too tired, so he went back to school to rest first."

Hearing Liu Si's words, Quan Maoguo put down his fast son and said in a sullen voice: "Rest? How can he rest at this time? How could he sleep at his age? Why don't you leave him in the lab? ”

This sentence directly silenced Liu Si and Chen Yonggang.

Just leave people behind? In whose name?

"Well, Academician Quan, let's not talk about this for now, what is the situation, you can introduce it to me. Everyone is waiting to hear your conclusions. ”

You Wanzhang glanced at the friend who was so angry that he jumped on the other side, and took the initiative to take over the conversation: "The situation is like this, the chip designed by Ning Xiao is actually nothing to say about the NB10 type narrowband chip, purely from the manufacturing process, it is a relatively low-end chip type, and the process is only 180nm, but he did design a new structure in another way, using new materials, in short, in addition to silicon, T material is also used." The key point is that, according to the specific test results, the work efficiency of this new chip structure is much higher than that of the current traditional silicon-based technology.

On top of that, although the chip designed this time is simple. However, we can confirm that this structure has the potential to be used to design large integrated circuits. In other words, this three-dimensional structure can be used in products such as CPUs, GPUs, and various storage arrays. Of course, the process needs to continue to move forward. However, at present, although the chip made by Ning Xiao in the laboratory only uses the 180nm process, its performance is already comparable to similar products produced by the market using 60nm technology.

In other words, this is no longer a breakthrough in the field of chips in Huaxia, but a breakthrough in the whole field of semiconductor technology for all mankind. Because the chip has been manufactured or taped out, it means that all the problems that need to be overcome from design to manufacturing have been solved, and the only thing left is to continue to advance the process level. It is no exaggeration to say that this technology represents the future of the semiconductor industry chain. As far as I know, Intel, IBM, AMD, or other semiconductor companies have been working on alternative technologies for silicon.

Because the atomic radius of silicon is much higher than that of carbon atoms, in other words, on a smaller scale, the technology given by Ning Xiao has more potential, such as breaking through the limitations of the nm process process and cutting into the lower limit of 1 nanometer faster than silicon-based technology. But how did Ning Xiao achieve it now, such as what software was used for design? What are the processes required for production? Is the material energetic? We don't know what equipment we need, we just know that it's already been made. You get the idea, right? ”

Liu Si understood, You Wanzhang's words were obviously more convincing than Chen Yonggang.

This is a comprehensive opinion given by a group of top experts in China, and at this moment, Liu Si probably understood why the other four academicians were calling. After all, these people are different from You Wanzhang and Quan Maoguo, and they are all related to companies that operate commercially in semiconductors. He estimated that it would not be long before the capital would become lively, after all, it was a technology ahead of the world.

In fact, Liu Si's reaction was correct, because as soon as he thought of this, the phone rang.

Glancing at the phone number, Liu Si's expression became serious, and he glanced at Chen Yonggang and the two academicians beside him, holding his mobile phone, and temporarily walked outside the door, and then answered the phone.

"Hey, Liu Peiyi, the newly established chip R&D center of the University has researched the world's leading chip technology?"

"Well, Chen, I also just finished consulting Academician You, and I was about to report to you, where did you get the news?"

"There was a meeting in the afternoon, and several chairmen answered the phone and asked for leave to leave, I still don't know? What's going on now? ”

"If Academician You wasn't joking just now, Ning Xiao provided a new semiconductor solution, involving the entire semiconductor industry chain. But the more specific situation is still unclear, because Ning Xiao said that he was too tired and went to rest. ”

"Gone to rest? I...... So, you're still in the R&D center of the University, right? ”

"Well, yes."

"You go to find Ning Xiao, see when he is resting, and invite him to the ministry to talk to everyone. Hey, forget it, in this way, you told Chen Yonggang that the evening meeting would be held at the Sports University, let him coordinate it, and Ning Xiao should rest in the evening, right? ”

"Okay, I'll go and discuss with Principal Chen."

"What else is being discussed? Inform him directly that this matter must be implemented. ”

"Okay."

……

Huaqing University.

At this time, Huaqing has also entered the examination season, and for key universities like Huaqing, the atmosphere of the final exam is naturally more tense. After all, grade points are very important, and this is a major event that is directly related to the future of graduate school or studying abroad.

In the president's office, Zhou Jingxue was also not idle, he was reading a document on in-depth substantive global cooperation and exchanges with the University of Berkeley. This is also one of the tasks he needs to promote in the next summer vacation.

In the past six months, Huaqing has not developed well. Especially this year's score line has been released, Huaqing's admission score line and the school next door have finally opened a gap, and the eighteen-point gap makes Zhou Jingxue feel great pressure.

But no matter what, you still have to do the daily work.

Just when Zhou Jingxue was concentrating on looking at the documents, the phone on the desk suddenly rang, and he picked up the phone casually and said, "Hey." ”

"Lao Zhou, it's me, you asked me to pay attention to that news before, remember?"

"Oh, Lao Yu, hello, hello, of course remember, eh, is there any news?"

"Yes, I just received the news that Ning Xiao had a breakthrough in the laboratory, and he really made the chip."

"What? Ning Xiao made the chip? What's the situation? Zhou Jingxue subconsciously looked up at the calendar on the table, the time was not confused, it was still June.

But my brain is still a little messy.

Zhou Jingxue suspected that the time in his mind was messed up.

He remembered that when Fan Zhenhua called him, it was about to be worse than the middle of June, how long had it been, and Ning Xiao had actually made a chip?

Even school hasn't had summer vacation yet.

Thinking of what Fan Zhenhua said at that time, and thinking of the application submitted by Ning Xiao that he found in the system, Zhou Jingxue was stunned for a while.

"I don't know exactly what that is. I also just got the news from the Institute of Microelectronics, and Academician You, who was invited to test, told me that the laboratory reflects new materials, new structures, new processes and new technologies. I also specifically asked whether it would involve patent disputes, and Lao You said that all restrictions were perfectly avoided. ”

Hearing these introductions, Zhou Jingxue subconsciously thought of the topic application submitted by Ning Xiao in Huaqing: "Research on the design and production technology of three-dimensional heterogeneous chips of new materials that can bypass Western patent sanctions".

By the way, how can this really be right?!

For a while, Zhou Jingxue only felt that his heart was full of mixed tastes.

"Hmm...... Lao Yu, are you sure? ”

"Today, the Ministry of Science and Technology has even arranged the discussion at the University of Physical Education, and several professors from your Huaqing Institute of Integrated Circuits and the laboratory have also been invited to participate. By the way, I heard that Liu Si took six academicians to confirm it in the morning, and now the CEOs of Huaxin Semiconductor and Longwei Precision have gone directly to the body, how do you say you want to be sure? ”
