Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

Carbon-based chip research institute.

It's been the first time the Ark doesn't know how many times it's been here.

Unlike usual, however, this time standing here, he can clearly feel that the atmosphere here is different from the past.

What can I say?

While he used to come here for more or less similar purposes, such as making some progress in research, the difference this time around is that he can clearly see from the eyes of the researchers the joy of a long journey that has finally been accomplished and the unexpected explanation...

And at the same time, it was obvious to him that the root of all of this was all because he had a thin sheet that was not thumbnail cap size, shape, square, and all-purpose black.

“That's the thing. ”

After passing the thin piece carefully onto the ark, Professor Wu Tianqun looked at it and said excitedly, "Dragon Teng 1000, the first prototype chip in the Dragon Teng series! Also known as Longteng One! Specific performance parameters are what you've seen before, and the 28nm process we're using has successfully increased integration from 3 million transistor units per square millimeter to 10 million! ”

“Based on the needs of our friends and merchants, our initial positioning of this Longteng 1 chip is for medium and high-end servers, and the target is the Intel Xeon X56 series of chips. Although we are slightly inferior to them in terms of integration and process paper data, with the superiority of carbon-based transistors in terms of physical performance, I can say without exaggerating that we have lost half of their streets in terms of performance data! ”

In as common a language as possible, Professor Wu Tianqun informed the Ark of the performance characteristics of this chip.

Although the density of 10 million transistors per square millimeter is nothing compared to the Intel, which has already achieved 100 million degrees of integration. But carbon-based transistors and silicon-based transistors are two different things in themselves, and they are not entirely generalizable.

Taking the target Xeon series chip as an example, depending on the model and product positioning, the degree of integration is about 50 million, however, horizontal contrast, the Xeon series chip that just reached the 10 million degree of integration can already outperform the Xeon series chip with higher degree of integration!

It could even be said that it was only 10 million degrees of integration that had led to such an outcome, which happened to be what made him most proud. Because it just so happens that there is more room for improvement in their technology!

Until they develop integration and process to the same level as the carbon based chips on the market today…

I'm afraid the whole industry will have to call them "Daddy" from the heart.

Overall, although the technology is only just beginning, the performance of the Longteng 1 chip has initially demonstrated the superiority of the carbon-based chip.

Whether it's up to 20w power consumption, 3.7GHz clock frequency, or the superiority of carbon-based transistors over silicon-based transistors in terms of physical performance, it gives Professor Wu Tianqun a positive tone to say the bottom gas of this sentence.

And after listening to Professor Wu Tianqun, the expression of interest on the face of the Ark is also getting stronger.

Although he doesn't know much about chips and his contributions to this project are mainly focused on the theoretical level and the improvement of SG carbon materials, he can still feel intuitively how powerful this technology is from Professor Wu Tianqun's generic description and his exciting expression.

The canoe couldn't help but give a compliment after carefully detailing the invisible carved texture on the surface of the chip in hand and experiencing the light-haired texture.

“So light! ”

Compared to the texture and weight of a silicon-based chip, this thing is as thin as a piece of paper… No, it's more like a piece of paper from a chemical point of view.

Professor Wu Tianqun laughed: "This is also one of the advantages of carbon-based chip materials, our unit volume weighs less than half the size of the same silicon-based chip! ”

In fact, it's not just a light texture like paper.

With that chip on your hand, the ark suddenly finds that this thing is quite magically bent at a small angle. And when he removed the force applied on both ends of the chip, the whole chip returned to its original flatness like a spring chip...

It's like a hard shell paper.

At this point, the Ark suddenly realized one thing.

“I'm just holding this thing... is that really okay? ”

Professor Wu Tianqun said with a smile: “This is no problem. This is already a product on half the pipeline. I'm afraid you won't believe it if you say it at a lower unit price. You just broke it, and I got a bunch of them here, all right? ”

Hearing this, the ark finally let go of its heart, and the forefinger and thumb made it stronger.

He was curious as to the limits of this chip.

As the force applied on both ends of the chip continued to increase, finally, when the bending angle reached more than twenty degrees, this pitch-black chip was finally broken from the middle into two cuts.

Looking at the slightly surprised look on the face of the Ark, Professor Wu Tianqun continued.

“Our chips are mainly made of SG series materials and still perform well in terms of bending resistance, which I'm sure you know more about than I do. But... I still don't recommend breaking this thing down, which generally affects its current transfer effect in the event of a bend. ”

“I was just trying," the ark threw the chip wreckage into a special recycling bag, then looked at Professor Wu Tianqun and said with emotion, "I didn't think I'd be here in such a long time, you even solved the industrialization problem. ”

Professor Wu Tianqun said modestly: “The problem of industrialization is mainly solved by people from the semiconductor institute of Heise and Hua Academy of Sciences. We mainly do the carbon based transistors and the specific integrated process. ”

The ark nodded and then asked: “If the situation is optimistic, when will it be put into production? ”

Professor Wu Tianqun thought about it and said: "According to the feedback from Heise, production can be started as soon as possible at the end of the month… In fact, they are more anxious than we are, foreign semiconductor manufacturers are becoming more and more irregular, and the policy of the US government is repressive. I talked to their chief technology officer about this, and they are now counting on our carbon-based semiconductors to take them to the international scene. ”

Hearing the second half of the sentence, the ark's eyebrows raised a hint of arc and said, "I'm sure they won't be disappointed. ”

Professor Wu Tianqun said with a smile: "That is inevitable! I am still quite confident in the power of our technology and the strength of our Jinling Institute of Higher Studies! ”

I spent a while in a carbon-based chip lab.

Returning to the director's office, the ark thought for a while, and eventually decided to call the Bureau of Science and Technology first - that is, Director Lee, who had just left him.

The phone rang three times, and Director Li's voice quickly came from the phone.

“Hello? What is it? ”

Ark: “Something did happen. ”

Although the phrase "call yourself if you need anything” did speak for itself, I called you as soon as my front foot left the ark, leaving Director Lee speechless for a while.

Nima, can't you just say something in person?

You have to wait for yourself to get in the car before you call.

“Something happened. Why didn't you say something? Tomorrow, I'm going to a meeting at the high-tech park, and I'll come back to you tomorrow...”

“It's about Longteng One, the carbon-based chip--”

Before the Ark had finished saying a word, Director Lee, a spiritual spirit, immediately changed his voice and said: “Where are you now? ”

Hearing the impatient voice coming from the other side of the phone, Ark's heart laughed so much and said softly.

“… still in my office. ”

“Wait for me, I'll be right there... Lee, turn around! Back to the institute of higher education! ”

“But the meeting over at High-Tech Park is in an hour...”

“Stupid! It's important to have a meeting, or Professor Lu! ”

“Yes…”

In a messy end, the phone hung up.

With a slightly dumb look on his office chair, he returned to the divine ark and shook his head with a smile, leaving his phone on the table.

Dragon Teng One has been made.

According to Professor Wu, there should be no problem with production, and Jiangcheng Semiconductor Industrial Base and the fifth largest semiconductor industry group as a whole serve this carbon-based chip project.

All the supporting facilities, even before the project started, were ready, and Warwick Hayes, who was marching upriver from chip design toward the semiconductor industrial chain, had enough motivation to make the best of what was industrialized.

The only thing to think about now is how to play this card.

The index finger gently tapered on the table and the ark shook its head for a moment.

Never mind, this question is a headache for people, but it has been discussed with professionals.

To think of it, he picked up his phone and called a number that he didn't normally use.

In fact, this number will remain in his address book, and he's all a little strange. He almost forgot when he added it.

“Hello, Boss Wang? ”

“Well, it's me. ”

“The chip you ordered, we've made it. ”
