Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

Since the receipt of Professor Wu's e-mail, although people are still meeting on the Beijing side, the thinking of the Ark has long flown to the Golden Mausoleum, 18,000 miles away.

On the day of the closing of the Congress, the Ark boat, which had just delivered its closing address at the closing ceremony, rushed to the capital airport and flew out of Shanghai to return to Jinling.

As soon as the plane landed, he left the airport's ark and couldn't even put his luggage home. Without saying anything, Wang Peng drove him directly to the Jinling Institute of Higher Studies.

Horses arrived at the carbon-based semiconductor laboratory, and Professor Wu Tianqun was busy surrounding himself with his students and researchers in front of an experimental device when the front foot of the ark had just broken into the gate.

When he saw the ark appearing at the door, Professor Wu apparently stunned for a second and said in surprise.

“Master Lu? Have you all… returned from Shanghai? ”

If he remembers correctly, he also saw this big man on live news this morning...

“I couldn't wait to get to Jinling.” Yan briefly said, looking at the experimental equipment behind him, he asked, "Am I not interrupting your experiment? ”

“No,” Professor Wu Tianqun shook his head and said with a smile, "the experiment has just been done, we are collecting experimental data, you are not much of an influence at this time. ”

“I wish I hadn't disturbed your experiment," the ark nodded, and I couldn't wait to ask, “What about the carbon-based chip? I came for it. ”

Hearing the Ark Boat ask about this, Professor Wu Tianqun's face showed a definitive expression and said with a smile.

“The Tan Jing chip is in the lab next to it. For safety's sake, I locked it in the sample cabinet. Please follow me! ”

After instructing his students to do the research, Professor Wu Tianqun walked out the door with the ark and went to the lab right next to him.

Walking next to a sample cabinet that looked like a safe-deposit box, Professor Wu skillfully pulled out the key to unlock the cabinet, then put on gloves and carefully removed a palm-sized brown glassware from the sample cabinet.

“Because it's a carbon material, this chip is sensitive to strong light sources, so I saved it here. Would you like to see it? ”

Staring at the brown glassware end for a while, watching a chip the size of a thumbnail lying quietly in the center slot of the container, the ark opened and said, “Open it and you won't have to look, just tell me.”

“Okay!”

Clearing his voice, Professor Wu Tianqun introduced the technical details of this chip to the Ark in simple words.

As the name implies, the carbon-based chip is naturally the processor that inherited the carbon-based transistor. According to Professor Wu Tianqun, this small carbon-based chip contains 100,000 carbon nanotransfer transistors.

Although there is still a large gap in this number compared to the hundreds of millions of silicon-based chips that start up, this chip is already capable of doing some mathematical operations that are not very complicated, as is the case with ordinary computer chips.

After hearing the news, the heart of the ark was in a state of agitation.

Samples of carbon-based chips have been born!

What does that mean?

This means that Professor Wu Tianqun's research team has successfully achieved a leapfrogging breakthrough from carbon-based transistors to carbon-based chips!

This means that the first strategic goal of China's fifth largest semiconductor industry cluster has seen the dawn of victory!

“… we are now able to make the chip 150nm according to the disclosed chip design scheme, and although there is still a gap from the mature commercial chip, it has demonstrated far superiority over traditional silicon-based chips in terms of operating speed, energy consumption and heat generation. ”

After a pause, Professor Wu Tianqun suppressed the excitement in his voice and continued.

“And most importantly, this chip uses a 'chemical deposition + etching’ preparation method similar to the SG-1 ambient superconducting material, and we will no longer be technically limited by the accuracy of photolithography technology. And in theory, there is still a lot of room for improvement in this approach! We are currently working on ways to further reduce the chip process and increase the number of transistors per square millimeter. ”

“As long as we can increase the number of transistors per square millimeter to over 30 million and increase the process to over 10 nm, this chip will have the potential to be commercialized! And the superiority of this carbon-based chip in its own physical performance will be no match for a silicon-based chip in any case! ”

Ark: “How hard is mass production? ”

Professor Wu Tianqun: “Isn't production higher than silicon-based chips! As for the cost, although slightly more expensive, it is perfectly acceptable considering the cost of the product! ”

The ark couldn't help but sigh: "Well done! Professor Wu, you've done a great job! ”

When he heard the Ark, Professor Wu Tianqun laughed embarrassingly.

“Where, if your two papers published in Nature had not provided the theoretical basis for this technology route, and SG-1 ambient superconducting materials from the Jinling Institute of Higher Studies, it would not have been possible for me to make any carbon-based transistors, let alone take down this gateway to carbon-based chips. ”

“Come on, just the two of us, don't blow each other so commercially," Ark laughed, then changed his serious expression and continued, "Please write two reports on the results of these studies, one without the need to bring specific technical details and simply talk about the results. The other one will have to spend a lot of time thinking about it. In addition to not having to follow the format of the paper, it will basically follow the pattern of the paper, write down the technical details of the paper, and it will be used when registering the patent.

After listening to the orders of the Ark, Professor Wu nodded seriously.

“Okay, I'll be ready in a minute. When do you need it? ”

Ark: “It's no rush, just give it to me in a week, or a few days later if you're too busy, or it's mainly your experiment. ”

Professor Wu smiled and said, "It's okay, this thing doesn't delay the experiment, I guarantee you'll see it in a week. ”

The ark nodded: "Please, I won't be bothering you here anymore. ”

The chip was counted as having been seen, and the story was finished. The ark was about to leave the lab, but at this moment, suddenly I remembered one thing, and then I turned back and looked at Professor Wu Tianqun and said.

“By the way, over time, the center will have a panel of experts on the feasibility of topological quantum computing technology, and I recommend your name. ”

Though only a trivial word, listening to Professor Wu Tianqun's ears caused a shock wave in his heart.

Centrally established Panel of Experts on Technical Feasibility Arguments!

Whatever is to be argued, but where the first two letters carry the center, it is necessarily the academician-grade bull who can cross this threshold, or at least the academic leader in a certain field, who has a say.

I am only a professor in the district, at most hanging the title of a Yangtze River scholar. In general, it is not possible to enter such an expert group to make technical feasibility arguments for key technologies that can influence the direction of the national strategy.

Taking a deep breath, he looked at the ark standing at the door, and Professor Wu said with gratitude.

“Thank you for your promotion! ”

Though much older than him, it's always weird to say this, but it's really what he feels right now.

Having access to such a panel of experts, both from a networking perspective and from the standpoint of academic qualifications themselves, would be very helpful for his academic journey ahead!

Looking at a moving Professor Wu, Ark chuckled and said.

“You don't have to thank me. ”

“Besides, it's not my promotion, it's what you strive for through your own efforts and dedication. ”

“If you must, thank yourself for the sweat. ”
