"Well, in addition to the super-distance communication technology, the other landmark technologies of the third-level civilization should also be developed as soon as possible. Energy Weapon, Energy Shield, Ga Fusion, High Thrust Ion Thruster ......"

At this moment, Chen Yue is full of fighting spirit. At this moment, he even realized what kind of computer technology a third-level civilization should have.

Of course, there were computers on board O'Do's spaceship, and there were a lot of chips. Most of them are quantum computing chips or electronic computing chips that Chen Yue can understand, but the central computer of the spaceship is the technology he can't figure out and understand.

Odo and others, who are not computational scientists, do not know how these computers work.

But at this moment, Chen Yue finally understood what kind of principle it was based on.

"A quantum-electronic dual computer that integrates ultra-distance communication technology. It must be so. ”

Recalling the previous research materials on that computer, Chen Yue realized in his heart.

The same can be applied to computer technology. In addition, it can be called an extremely huge, even epoch-making giant leap.

At this moment, the supercomputer where Chen Yue is located is made with the most advanced technology of human civilization, and the main shortcoming that limits its performance is an aspect that is difficult for ordinary people to imagine.

Velocity of light.

Although the speed of light is as high as 300,000 kilometers per second, it is still too slow. Its slowness is reflected in the following aspects.

A supercomputer is made up of multiple chip units. The operating system is responsible for the distribution of data, which is then circulated in different chip units, where they are calculated and then aggregated. Different chips are connected to the total controller, and between chips and chips, by cables. The optical signals transmitted through the cable travel at the speed of light.

For example, if the distance between two computing chips is 10 centimeters, this distance is very necessary because of factors such as heat dissipation and structure.

At 10 centimeters, it takes about one billionth of a second, or about 0.33 nanoseconds, for optical signal transmission, and the two-way communication delay is 0.66 nanoseconds.

This is the time it takes for two adjacent chips to communicate. So, what if the two chips that are the farthest apart in the supercomputing array communicate?

At a distance of 10 meters, the two-way communication delay is as high as 66 nanoseconds.

In supercomputing, this communication occurs hundreds of billions of trillions of times a second on average. Such a small delay, when accumulated, will seriously slow down the overall performance of the supercomputer.

It is precisely because of this constraint that Chen Yue's computing technology has been unable to break through.

But now, the breakthrough of over-distance communication technology has given Chen Yue another way of thinking.

Is it possible to use the over-distance communication mode inside the computer? In this way, this delay is reduced to 0, and the performance of the computer can be greatly improved.

The central computer in Odo's spaceship became an engineering prototype at the moment, telling Chen Yue that his thinking was correct.

Because the Southern Star Civilization, which is an old third-level civilization, is doing this.

"In this case, then, among the major scientific research projects, it is necessary to add another one, which integrates the development of quantum-electronic dual computers with ultra-distance communication technology."

Chen Yue secretly made up his mind.

However, the premise of this technology is the maturity of long-distance communication technology. Not only do I want to make the remote communication device smaller, but I also want to make it so that it can be installed inside a sophisticated supercomputer or even integrated into a circuit board. Only then can it be put into practical use. ”

Although achieving this goal seems unattainable, Chen Yue is still looking forward to it.

"Once a new computer is developed, my total computing power will increase by at least 100 times. At that time, I will have more powerful engineering and scientific research capabilities, and my technology research and development will be faster. ”

Chen Yue and more than 100,000 three-eyed people once again devoted themselves to the process of scientific and technological research and development.

Time passed slowly. Five years after mastering the technology of ultra-distance communication, another major scientific and technological breakthrough based on the system of quantum field equations appeared.

This time, it's at the military level.

Chen Yue had long known that the main way of warfare for a third-level civilization was energy weapons. But there were no weapons on O'Do's spaceship, and Chen Yue never had a physical object to refer to.

When I asked Odo, as an officer, Odo only knew some military-level understandings such as "what type of shell can be charged", "how much can be charged with which type of shell, and which projectile is better to take under which circumstances", and he didn't know much about the technical details.

At this moment, Chen Yue finally completely understood what the so-called "charging the shell" meant.

Based on the system of quantum field equations, Chen Yue found that some special materials can be made in an excited state by a special method. This excited state contains a large amount of energy and can exist stably.

However, a violent impact can make this excited state unbalanced, so that the energy contained in it can be exploded in an instant, forming a projectile that is dozens or even hundreds of times more powerful than a projectile that relies solely on kinetic energy.

This seems to be the same as the internal charge of the projectile, which increases the power of the projectile through explosion, but in fact it is a completely different idea.

The explosion of the internal charge of the projectile will undoubtedly greatly increase the size and mass of the projectile, resulting in its inability to be accelerated to extremely high speeds. And in the space battlefield, slow shells have no value.

Not only will it fail to hit the target, but it will also be destroyed by the target's easy lockoning.

Only a high enough speed has the value of existence. This means that the volume and mass should not be too large.

But a smaller mass means a lack of energy. After all, how much energy does an electromagnetic cannon projectile with a mass of only one gram have, even if it can launch at a speed of 10,000 kilometers per second? In the face of the battleships in the battlefield of the interstellar age, how much damage can they have?

If you increase your power and quality, your speed will slow down and you won't be able to hit the enemy at all. Reduces the mass, reduces the power, although the speed is faster, it can hit the enemy, but it can't do much damage.

This creates a dilemma. It simply can't be solved at the level of secondary civilizations.

However, when it reaches the level of third-level civilization and has energy weapons, this dilemma has been solved very well. Because the third-level civilization can achieve the perfect fusion of "high power", "high speed" and "low quality" through the form of energy weapons.

This method is what Chen Yue has researched at this moment, so that the projectile material is in an excited mode. In this way, even small projectiles can have extremely high energy.
