Chapter Ninety-Three: The Plan for the Single Crystal Furnace
Chen Nian never expected that he would be able to make such an unexpected gain by shopping for a post bar.
Carbon dioxide starch synthesis technology, although this thing sounds chicken now, is actually full of potential.
After all, it is the fate of a civilization that looks up to the stars to go to the sea of stars, and at that time, do you really want to set up a special planting area in the precious spaceship space?
The essence of synthetic starch is to realize the industrial transformation process of inorganic matter to organic matter, break the bottleneck of resource constraints, and greatly improve the "survival boundary" of human beings.
——
But of course, it's too early to talk about the full application of this technology.
Although in this era, domestic power resources are generally excessive, and there is no need to consider using photovoltaic power to save costs, the problem is that invertase is expensive.
In Chen Nian's impression, this thing is still sky-high even in 2020, and it will not be reduced until the first factory is completed in 23.
I can't build it, I can't build it at all.
——
But it is absolutely no problem to lay out and reserve it in advance as a high-potential project.
It's really profitable!
With only 1.5 source points, this kind of thing can be parsed.
It's like buying a lottery ticket and winning five million for two dollars......
——
No, it should be said that it is like going to a luxury store to see the world, but it happened to meet someone who dealt with the defective goods of the tail goods, and was suddenly won by himself with the floor price......
Chen Nianle walked around the room twice, then entered the chemical formula and synthesis method of the catalytic enzyme into the computer, turned his head and called Chen Guo.
He briefly explained his "discovery" to Chen Guo, who listened to the whole process in amazement, and then asked in disbelief:
"So, you read other people's -—— and fantasies on the Internet, and then tried it yourself, and you got this thing out?"
"Are you sure it can actually convert methanol into starch? That's kind of incredible, isn't it? ”
"Although the ingredients are the same, ...... What am I talking about here? ”
"Send me the technical documentation, and I'll find someone for you."
Chen Guo suddenly paused in the middle of speaking, in fact, what he said just now was completely out of his own subconscious reaction, but he soon came back to his senses:
Doesn't that?
Knowing that the kid on the other side has a secret, his superiors have turned a blind eye, what kind of mouth do he have?
It's okay for people to take what they give, and it's not good for anyone to get to the bottom of it!
But to his surprise, Chen Nian actually answered his question seriously.
"Professor Chen, as you know, whether it is materials science or biochemistry, in fact, the process of doing experiments is no different from lottery, most of the time, it is purely luck to be able to draw what you want."
"Of course, I'm just lucky."
"Yes, yes, you've always had good luck."
Chen Guo hurriedly agreed, and secretly said in his heart:
Stinky boy can really act.
The two exchanged a few words, Chen Guo took away the document of carbon dioxide starch convertase, and planned to hand it over to the Institute of Industrial Biotechnology for experimental exploration, while Chen Nian leisurely returned to his desk and began to study the next node of the digital array radar technology tree.
Now that the problem of the diffusion furnace has been basically solved, the next step is the single crystal furnace.
After these two things are done, basically the T/R components required for digital array radar can be mass-produced.
As for the lithography and etching machines needed to further improve performance?
Well...... If there is a surplus source point, it is not impossible to do it, but in general, the cost performance is not high.
In fact, any kind of military electronic products, it will not require the most cutting-edge semiconductor technology, and even on Lao Maozi's side, there are many weapons, including the Su-27, which still use electronic equipment in the 60s and 70s.
What were the electronic devices like back then?
Large PCBs, packaged SMD chips, Cassegrain radars, and even large discrete transistors, a little bit cyberpunk.
However, the impact of such backward electronic equipment on the combat effectiveness of its air force is limited.
Of course, this is just a relatively extreme example, after entering the phased array era, everyone began to update their radar systems, but even the most advanced radar chips will lag behind civilian chips for several generations, until 20 years later, most of the world's radars are still at the level of 70 to 40nm.
Therefore, it is not necessary to build a lithography machine purely for the sake of digital array radar.
It's better to take advantage of this not too sensitive time to buy more and come back......
Thinking of this, Chen Nian shook his head slightly.
Then don't lay out too far, and get the technology of the single crystal furnace first.
As for the rest, it doesn't matter if you take it one step at a time.
So, he took out the list of technical difficulties about the single crystal furnace equipment output from the previous meeting, and began to scan them with the system one by one.
This time, the list of technical difficulties is much smaller than that of a diffusion furnace, but the number of source points that need to be consumed is almost the same.
The main reason is that the manufacturing of single crystal furnaces involves process-oriented simulation software, and the initialization of the simulation software must be supported by a large amount of data.
Obviously, the system helped him skip this link and included the cost of this link in the source point consumption.
Overall, the number of source points required to manufacture an advanced level of monocrystalline furnace is 2.9.
Seeing this number, Chen Nian couldn't help but secretly complain in his heart:
Sure enough, the F-22 was so cheap that it was a novice benefit, and after the completion of the project, the price of the system immediately returned to normal levels......
However, I can't bargain with the system, so I can only find a way to earn enough source points I need.
There are still 1.32 source points left.
Chen Nian sighed, and after writing down the number "1.32", he began to silently calculate the time it would take for him to earn so many source points.
It seems that the learning schedule of the silicon material course has to continue to catch up.
On the one hand, you can earn more source points, and on the other hand, you should try to improve your knowledge level and "kill the price" with the system.
Chen Nian scratched his head silently, then took out the notes he had taken in the morning, flipped to the page of "Crystal Plane Index", and began to review and consolidate the calculation process he had learned in the morning......
……
At the same time, Chen Guo had already contacted Xu Min, the head of the Tianjin Institute of Industrial Biotechnology, with great efficiency, and informed him of the discovery of the catalytic enzyme used to produce starch from carbon dioxide.
The latter's reaction was equally surprising, you know, although they have this topic, but it is still in the stage of hypothesis and theoretical argumentation, as for the process and process, it is not yet a word.
And now, you're actually running to me and telling me that you've got the most critical catalytic enzyme out?
How is this possible......
——
However, judging by the documents he has just received, this is really not impossible......
"Professor Chen, can you tell me how he discovered this enzyme?"
Xu Min read the document and reasoned over and over again, and asked cautiously over and over again.
“…… I don't know how to answer this question, except to say that he was lucky enough to find this enzyme. ”
"As for how...... Who can say for sure? In fact, even if you experiment in the laboratory, there is no guarantee that you will be able to make the required materials stably, right? ”
"It's all luck...... Let's just think of it as luck, understand? ”
"Understood."
Xu Min nodded, and then spoke:
"In that case, let's arrange resources for trial production."
"If we can really make this thing, then we will go down in history......
Chen Guo nodded in agreement, but suddenly, he sensed something wrong:
"-—— no, why do I feel like I've heard so much about the word "famous" lately?"
