Chapter 114: Beyond the Limit, Floating Carbon Nanowires

"Room-temperature superconductivity."

"I remember some time ago, opposite the physics conference in March.

A third brother from the University of Rochester's Dias team made a live presentation.

He said that his lab synthesized a room-temperature superconducting material by doping nitrogen with lutetium hydride, and published a paper in Nature.

But alas, according to the process and parameters reported by the trial.

There is no laboratory in the world that can replicate the test.

In the end, the report was judged to be a fraud and became a scandal in the scientific and technological community. ”

Speaking of the back, Chen Yi couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

Although it is said that it is a pleasant thing to see the other side in a bad way.

But if there is a breakthrough in room temperature superconducting materials, it will benefit the entire scientific and technological community, including human civilization.

Even if the first step the main material patent to the opposite side occupied.

But with a room temperature superconducting material as a reference, let's cross the river by touching the opposite side, and I believe that we can study our own superconducting materials in a few years.

"However, this matter has been judged to be a fraud."

"But it also indirectly tells people that superconductivity exists in chemical compounds, in special chemical crystals."

Chen Yi recalled several superconducting synthetic materials.

Cu-oxygen superconductors were first discovered in the 80s, iron-based superconductors, magnesium boride superconductors were discovered at the beginning of the 21st century, and graphene superconducting magic angles, organic superconductors, which were discovered in the last decade.

Think for a moment.

Chen Yi still decided to use carbon as a base material.

After all, there are different limits to the adjustment of the system for different base materials.

Several superconductors have been discovered before, and countless funds have been invested in research by the entire scientific community for decades.

If it were really good, I am afraid that there would have been a major breakthrough long ago.

If there is no breakthrough, it means that the foundation is not very good and the limit is limited.

Only the carbon organic superconducting materials discovered in the past decade are currently limited in research, and the limit is not yet known, and it is more likely to achieve room temperature superconductivity.

"The magic angle of carbon graphene cannot exist stably in the natural environment at room temperature."

"If carbon organic compound materials really achieve superconductivity at room temperature, the key may be how to solve the stable existence of magic angles in a room temperature environment."

"Or with the help of the superstability of carbon special special-shaped bodies, special superconductors are doped to achieve room temperature superconductivity."

After determining the general idea, Chen Yi did not hesitate.

Some carbon compound wires were simply made.

Take out another iron nail and wrap it around the wire three or two times.

It doesn't take even 1 minute.

Chen Yi made an electromagnet device for primary school students on the spot.

"The electromagnet is done, and finally, there is a large-scale external power supply."

Chen Yi pulled a 300-kilowatt-hour electric version of the power battery, drew out the wire, and connected the electromagnet after simple voltage adjustment.

Suddenly, an interface popped up.

[Item: Crude Electromagnet]

[Attributes: Energy x99.9, Magnetic x2.4 (-1.3), Efficiency x2.8, Conduction x3.9]

[Note: This is an electromagnet device that elementary school students can make.]

However, because the technology is not good, the actual magnetism has greatly declined.

Even if you connect it to a super-volume power supply, this can't hide the essence of your technical inadequacy.

“.”

Chen Yi looked at this remark evaluation, and then looked at the number of winding turns of the wire and the gap of the wire, the obviously unqualified electromagnet, silently added two more turns, and then pressed all the wires tightly.

Well.

The brackets of recession are gone.

"It's comfortable."

Chen Yi shouted and began to adjust the conduction attribute that improved the performance of the wire.

Colorful light blooms.

Envelops the entire power battery and solenoids.

[Energy: 99.9→47.9]

[On:3.9→49.9】

[Magnetic: 2.4→5.4]

[Efficiency: 2.8→5.4]

[If you detect that a property exceeds the initial value, do you want to read the information?] Yes/No! 】

After ten minutes, the light dissipated.

The power battery in front of me has not changed, and the electromagnet has not changed.

However, the diameter of the carbon wire that was originally wound around the iron nail has become much smaller, and the originally dull surface has become bright and shiny.

"It seems that 49.9 is the limit of the current object."

Chen Yi looked at the conduction attribute that could not be improved until it reached 49.9, and understood that this was the limit of the current device.

Without hesitation, I chose to read.

Call! A large amount of technical information and basic principles came to Chen Yi's mind.

With the assistance of the system, Chen Yi quickly digested the contents.

This is the structural information, ratio information, production process, and some basic principles of design of a special carbon material.

"It's a bit like carbon nanotubes, no, it should be carbon nanotubes."

Experiencing the data and information in his mind, Chen Yi's expression was a little strange.

Carbon nanotubes, also known as bucky tubes.

The most tensile material in the world.

In science fiction, it is known as the best material for building space elevators.

Of course, Chen Yi, who has mastered the technology of self-lifting, naturally will not build any space elevators.

It's just that he thinks that carbon nanotubes are the strongest in the world, and now he is estimated to move his position to the current carbon material.

According to the technical information read.

This is a material that is even more metamorphosed than carbon nanotubes.

Most of the conventional carbon nanotubes have only one layer on the tube wall, or they are sleeved together by several carbon nanotubes, and the big doll covers the small doll to form a double-layered and multi-layer structure.

But now this.

It is densely packed, and at a glance there are thousands of layers.

According to the technical information read, the maximum can be tens of thousands of layers.

Between the layers, the carbon atoms in the walls of the layers are connected at intervals.

It forms a structure that is completely hollow and has no connection between the layers and walls, which is different from ordinary carbon nanotubes.

Tens of thousands of carbon layers directly turn the microscopic carbon tube structure into a macroscopic carbon wire visible to the naked eye.

"This thing, conductivity aside, tensile strength must be perverted."

Chen Yi took some tensile testers and prepared to briefly test the performance of the new wire.

This is because dismantling will cause the adjusted properties to collapse.

He clamped a section of wire directly on top of the electromagnet for testing.

After a series of tests, he came up with the basic parameters of the wire.

tensile strength, calculated using standard mass and diameter, reaches 107.9 times that of carbon nanotubes,

The resistance value, 1.03× 10^(-21)Ωm, although it does not reach the zero resistance value of superconductivity.

However, it is almost 14 orders of magnitude lower than the copper material used every day, and more than 13 orders of magnitude lower than the most conductive silver.

"Carbon nanotubes 107.9 times the tensile strength, what metamorphosis tensile strength."

"With a resistance value of minus 21 power, even without superconductivity, this is the best wire material in the world."

"If all the ultra-high voltage transmission lines are replaced with these carbon nanowires, tens of billions of kilowatt-hours of electricity can be saved every time you are young."

Chen Yi sighed with emotion.

In the past, laboratories began to produce this special carbon nanowire.

This complex carbon nanotube, mass-produced, is inseparable from the targeted design of professional equipment.

Temporary production, can only go to the laboratory, manual little by little out.

But because the microscopic carbon structure is too metamorphosed and complex.

Even with the help of laboratory instruments.

Chen Yi still spent more than three days, and even asked Xuannu to help improve the preparation plan.

In the end, a carbon nanowire that was no more than 10 centimeters and the maximum number of layers was only more than 8,000 layers, which was not very uniform.

"Chemistry is not for human play, it's too much of a test of character and luck."

"No wonder, a chemical tycoon like Nobel is engaged in explosives, and the whole family is dead, crippled."

Chen Yi holds this carbon nanomaterial, which is less than 10 centimeters.

Take out a small hydraulic scissors, click it, cut it off 3 cm, and place it on top of a magnet.

The strength of tensile strength is metamorphosed, but it does not mean that the strength of yield resistance is also metamorphosed.

No matter how awesome the carbon nanotubes are, they can't escape the crushing of the hydraulic shears.

[Item: Carbon nanowire]

[Attributes: Conduction x78.5, tensile strength x91.7, denaturation resistance x81.7]

[Note: This is a carbon nanomaterial that has reached the ceiling of current material science and technology, or even surpasses the ceiling, with strong denaturation resistance, allowing it to adapt to many harsh environments.] 】

Unpretentious three attributes.

Chen Yi looked at the last degeneration resistance of the three attributes, thought about it, and probably understood the meaning.

This denature.

Not the degeneration of Siam, but the change in the properties of the material.

In some high-temperature environments or strong magnetic environments, the resistance value of ordinary conductors will generally change, resulting in an increase in resistance and a decrease in power.

The denaturation resistance attribute represents the degree of resistance to these special environments.

"The initial denaturation resistance is so strong, it's the perfect foundation for superconducting materials."

Chen Yi recalled three critical parameters of superconducting materials.

With a thought, he began to adjust the properties of the carbon nanowires.

"Fill up the conduction first."

[Tensile strength: 91.7→79.3]

[On:78.5→99.9]

[Note: This is a carbon nanowire whose resistance value reaches the limit of conventional materials, perhaps, you can further improve its structure, help it break through the limit, and you can also provide an ultra-low temperature environment, change the microscopic normative phase of the material, and change the obstruction of electronic movement......]

"99.9 is the limit."

Chen Yi frowned and looked at the interface in front of him.

Originally, he thought that after the properties of individual material items reached the limit.

It will touch the quantum realm and begin to enter a new field of adjustment and upgrading, just like the previous artificial intelligence upgrade intelligent life.

But I didn't think about it, now that the conduction of carbon nanowires has been raised to the limit, it is stuck there.

"Improve the environment of ultra-low temperatures. This is no different from current superconducting materials. ”

Chen Yi looked at the content of the remarks.

Carbon nanostructures are a superconducting structure that he is aware of.

However, the temperature at which superconductivity is achieved is very low.

This kind of superconductivity is no different from the current superconductivity, not the normal temperature superconductivity he wants.

"If low temperature doesn't work, then further improve the structure."

The low temperature environment was vetoed.

Chen Yi looked at another improved structure, looking at the properties of resistance to degeneration.

At this moment, Chen Yi felt as if he had grasped the trick.

"System, adjust!"

Colorful light blooms.

The properties of the front traverse continue to change.

[Tensile strength: 79.3→60.3]

[Denaturation resistance: 81.7→100.7]

[Note: This is a carbon nanowire that surpasses the limits of conventional materials, surpasses the current scientific and technological ceiling, and involves quantum force field technology.] 】

[If you detect that a property exceeds the initial value, do you want to read the information?] Yes/No! 】

[The detection material has reached the limit beyond the conventional field, and the consciousness wave consumption of subsequent adjustments has been increased by a thousand times.] 】

Call!

The light dissipated.

One after another system prompts appeared in front of Chen Yi's eyes.

At the same time, the carbon nanowires, which were originally quietly squared on the magnet, also have anti-gravity all of a sudden.

Without a hint of external power, it floated up, hovering a few centimeters above the magnet, slowly spinning.
