Chapter 283: International Patents in Hand! (Ask for a commuter pass)
Although he didn't have much hope of borrowing the chemical experiment data database from Princeton, Xu Chuan would do it whenever he could.
And with his current reputation, the Nofi double winner, plus the fact that he came from Princeton, still has some hope of making this happen.
Deligne: "I've talked to Macmillan about it, and I'm not sure what he thinks, but he said he wanted to talk to you about it." ”
After thinking about it, he continued: "I think you won't be going abroad for the time being, and he doesn't have time to come here for the time being, maybe you should make a video call to communicate first?" ”
Xu Chuan nodded and said, "Trouble the teacher." I'll find a time to get in touch with Director Macmillan. ”
As long as you don't refuse at the first time, there is still hope, but in what form it is, it's uncertain.
Anyway, the database of the white prostitute can be said to be basically unlikely, and some exchange must be done. As for how to change it, it will be discussed in detail.
"Hey, Professor Xu, I've finally found you."
The two were communicating when a person next to them interjected.
Xu Chuan turned his head to look at it, and the person who came to greet him was an acquaintance, Robert Morey Dean, the editor-in-chief of "New Advances in Mathematics".
The two had met twice before, and the paper he had written to prove the weak Weyl-Berry conjecture had been submitted to New Advances in Mathematics.
"Editor-in-chief Robert, I didn't expect you to come too." Xu Chuan smiled and shook hands with the editor-in-chief.
Robert smiled and said: "Of course, such an important moment, I think no one will want to miss it, today's report will be really wonderful, you conquered all of us on stage!" ”
After laughing and recounting two old sentences, Robert turned to the topic:
"Xu, I think you should know why I came, can you give me the proof paper of the ns equation? "New Advances in Mathematics" will definitely live up to it, and we will review and publish the manuscript as quickly as possible. ”
The editor-in-chief also came to invite him to submit the phased results of the NS equation to New Advances in Mathematics, but unfortunately, he came one step late.
Xu Chuan: "I'm sorry, Rober's editor-in-chief, the paper on the phased results of the NS equation has been submitted to the Annals of Mathematics. ”
"That's a shame, Xu."
After hearing that the manuscript had been submitted to the Annals of Mathematics, Robert said with a look of regret.
After a pause, he continued, "Xu, can I make an appointment with you for the next paper manuscript?" "New Advances in Mathematics" is also a good choice. ”
The corners of Xu Chuan's mouth moved, and he has begun to make an appointment for the next manuscript?
He didn't know anything about the next mathematical research, and there were too many things to do next, and he didn't have much time to study mathematics.
But when it came to this, he couldn't refuse anymore and agreed to Robert's request for editor-in-chief.
For Robert, although he was not invited to submit Xu Chuan's paper this time, it is also very good to receive the next paper submission.
After all, in his opinion, the next one will definitely continue to study the ns equation, and they have a high probability of getting a proof paper of the ns equation, which is great.
......
The periodic results report of the NS equation will be successfully completed, and Xu Chuan sent the paper to the mailbox of the Annals of Mathematics.
The paper will be reviewed by three Fields Medal winners, Tao Zhexuan, Qiu Chengtong and Smirnov, all of whom are top experts in the field of partial differential equations.
For the proof of such a major conjecture, although it is only a phase, it still needs to be taken seriously by the mathematical community.
Of course, Xu Chuan can conquer everyone at the report meeting, and the peer review of the paper is only a matter of time.
.......
After the report meeting on the NS equation, Xu Chuan also relaxed a lot.
The next day, the conversation with Fefferman didn't give him much inspiration, and continuing to advance the NS equation is unrealistic for now.
Whether there is a smooth solution of the incompressible OKES equation in three-dimensional infinite space is still a puzzle, and no one knows whether the divergence of turbulence will eventually calm down.
However, Xu Chuan believes that one day this problem will be solved, and there is a smooth solution to the three-dimensional incompressible OKES equation!
Just as a passenger plane flying in the sky will suddenly disintegrate, and a car driving on the earth will suddenly explode.
The existence of a smoothness solution to the ns equation determines whether most of the things in our daily life will suddenly be disordered.
If there is no such thing as a smooth solution to the ns equation, then all of these things can happen, including all kinds of bizarre things, such as the sudden innocent collapse of a building, the sudden collapse of the earth on its own, and the explosion of a calm lake like a bomb.
This is clearly contrary to common sense.
In physics or science, if a problem is too uncommon-sense, then it is likely to be problematic.
Therefore, Xu Chuan believes that the smoothness solution of the ns equation must exist!
It's just that there is no idea how to find and prove it.
........
"Little junior brother! Good news! Great news! ”
In the office, Xu Chuan was thinking about something, and the door was suddenly slammed open, and the excited shouts were deafening.
Xu Chuan was distracted, and was suddenly taken aback, and after recovering his senses, he looked at the master Xiong Fan Pengyue who broke in.
"The patent application is down?" After soothing his heartbeat, Xu Chuan looked up and asked.
“??? How do you know??? ”
Master Xiong Fan Pengyue was stunned for a moment, and asked in surprise, "Who told you?" No, I was responsible for this matter, and I was the first to know, and no one else knew. ”
Xu Chuantang smiled and said, "Guess." ”
"There is no experimental arrangement on the side of the Chuanhai Materials Research Institute recently, and the research on lithium-sulfur batteries is not worth shouting good news about. The only thing that can make you so excited is the previous patent for artificial SEI film. ”
"Perverted!"
Fan Pengyue stared at Xu Chuan for a long time, and only then did he spit out two words from his mouth.
Xu Chuan shrugged his shoulders, to be honest, this is nothing at all, you can guess it with your toes
However, the patent for artificial SEI film has come down, which is really gratifying.
After all, this patent is enough to realize his financial freedom for a long time to come.
After receiving the authorization documents of the artificial SEI film patent from the hands of the master Xiong Fan Pengyue, Xu Chuan flipped through it and saw the authorization documents of the United States, the European Union, small island countries, Asan and other countries.
According to his previous request, the number of international patents applied for artificial SEI films covered all PCT member states, as many as 120.
Although it cost him millions of dollars in patent fees, these member states, which basically cover 80 or even 90 percent of the global market, can benefit anyone who uses his technology in their products.
As for those developing African countries with a small market scale, or those that have not joined the Patent Cooperation Treaty, Xu Chuan has little interest in asking people to go to those countries to apply for patents in person.
Not to mention that it takes too long, it is useless to apply for it.
After all, a small and primitive country like Africa, not to mention having industrialization that can manufacture high-precision artificial SEI films, may not be fully popularized PHS or even 28 bars.
When the business community develops the market there, let alone 20 years of patent protection, I'm afraid 100 years is not enough.
And twenty years is long enough for him to develop and update lithium batteries for several generations, and even lithium air batteries may be made by him at that time.
After all, the biggest problem in lithium batteries is the lithium dendrite problem, and to solve this problem, whether it is a lithium-sulfur battery or a lithium-air battery, there is a foundation for development.
Of course, he also has to seize the time to promote research and development as soon as possible, so as not to let others come to occupy these two markets first.
.......
Flipping through the patent authorization documents in his hand, Xu Chuan raised his head and said: "Yes, with these things, there will be no shortage of scientific research funds in the laboratory in the future!" ”
"Prepare it, and then hold a press conference to invite manufacturers and media reporters who are interested in the battery industry at home and abroad, and I will personally host it."
Fan Pengyue nodded and said, "What about time?" On which day? ”
Xu Chuan thought for a while and said, "May 30th." ”
"After all, I still have to throw papers at ARXIV and journals, and even if I don't rely on papers for publication, I have to leave some time for the bullets to fly. It still takes time for the news to ferment. ”
"If we want to talk about patent licensing and sell at a good price, then a certain amount of heat is indispensable."
"Okay, I'll arrange it." Fan Pengyue nodded.
In the office, after the two exchanged details, Senior Brother Fan left in a hurry, while Xu Chuan leaned back in his chair and breathed a long sigh of relief.
The patent application for artificial SEI film has been successfully obtained, which is indeed a great joy.
Even if the paper has not yet been published, it does not prevent him from turning it into a patent fee.
Thinking about it, Xu Chuan sat up again full of energy, turned on the computer and found the paper prepared by the Chuanhai Materials Research Institute.
The paper on the results of the artificial SEI film was written by the research institute, and he didn't have time to write this.
Anyway, the results have already come out, and it is not difficult to make up a paper.
There are people under your hands, it's convenient. If he wrote it himself, it would have taken a day or two to toss, but now he can vote it out as long as he checks and revises it to confirm that there is no problem.
.......
Mid-May.
The enthusiasm of the NS equation phased results report has just passed, and the attention of the scientific media has not completely disappeared from the impact of the NS equation on the future of mankind, and a new paper has been quietly uploaded to the ARXIV preprint website.
Although most of the mathematicians, physicists, or computer scientists on Arxiv's preprint website are active, the first time this paper was uploaded still attracted the attention of many people.
For no other reason, the first author of the paper is a rather special name - "Xu Chuan".
This name was recently convened for a report that had an almost worldwide impact.
When the scholar who followed the name on arxiv received a prompt from the website, the curious scholar immediately clicked on the link to see what Professor Xu had posted.
It's just that what almost everyone didn't expect was that the paper published on ARXIV was not the result of mathematics, physics, or astronomy as they thought, but from a field that no one had ever thought of!
[A method of 'carboxymethyl cellulose-lithium fluorocarbon compound material' to guide the deposition of lithium ions in lithium batteries and solve the problem of lithium dendrites.] 】
The title of the paper made these scholars who kept paying attention to Xu Chuan look confused.
What is it?
Mathematics? Physics? Lithium-ion deposition? Lithium dendrites problem? It seems to be chemistry and materials, right?
For a moment, the mathematical physicists who saw the paper wondered if they had read it wrong, or if there was something wrong with the arxiv website and pushed them some mess.
Even many scholars still wonder if this is a person with the same name and surname when they look through the paper and see the names of the contributor and the author of the paper.
After all, he studied mathematics, and even if he made some achievements in physics and won the Nobel Prize, he fundamentally relied on mathematical knowledge.
But the deviation between this paper and the submission is a bit too outrageous.
Directly from the world of mathematics to the world of chemistry and materials, one in the south and one in the north.
After rubbing his eyes, flipping through the previous manuscripts of the contributors, and seeing the proof paper of Hodge's conjecture and the phased achievement paper of the NS equation, many scholars on ARXIV believed that this paper was really submitted by Xu Chuan.
", I'm dying, Professor Xu Chuan went to study chemistry?"
"Solving the lithium dendrite problem? What the heck! ”
"What is arxiv doing, getting someone else's paper under Professor Xu's name?"
"Mathematics, physics, astronomy, he's now putting his hand on chemistry and materials again, what's the joke?"
"Maybe it's just for fun, after all, it's arxiv, you can vote casually anyway."
"According to this paper, Professor Xu is announcing that he has solved the lithium dendrite problem?"
"Impossible! Is there less to announce a solution to the lithium dendrite problem every year? Not to mention 10,000, there are at least 8,000 articles, but the lithium dendrite problem is already there, and there are no articles that can be solved, and there are not even a few articles that can be optimized. ”
"What if that's true?"
"That's terrifying, mathematics, physics, astronomy, chemistry, the four major fields! Is there anything else he doesn't understand? Don't forget that he seems to be in his twenties this year! ”
.......
A chemistry paper dropped on Arxiv quickly sparked discussion among mathematicians and physicists, and then the discussion quickly spread to the world of chemistry and materials.
After all, when faced with a paper that is not in your field, but you pay attention to, the best way is to find a big name in this field to interpret it.
The originally calm chemistry, materials and battery fields suddenly set off huge waves and discussions.
Although this is not the first time that such papers have appeared in the materials science community that claim to have solved the lithium dendrite problem, related papers are emerging one after another every year. But the contributors to this paper are a little too shocking.
The first-ever Nobel Prize and Fields Medal double winner, who has previously solved a seven-millennial problem, and recently solved half of the NS equation, is well-known in the scientific community.
And now, he has reached out to the world of chemistry and materials science, how is this not surprising?
Such astonishing news will naturally not be simply buried.
A few days after Xu Chuan threw his paper on ARXIV, the big names in the fields of chemistry, materials and batteries turned their attention to it.
To be honest, most people in the industry don't believe that the lithium dendrite problem can be solved so easily, even though the paper was submitted by a Nobel Prize winner.
But you won't waste much time looking at it, what if? It would be frustrating to death if the lithium dendrite problem was really solved, and they missed the news and the opportunity.
