From a university student to a chief academician

Chapter 208 Major Discovery of Graphene

Chip Research Institute!

Ye Fei has been in the Institute of Chips for a week, and the basic situation is already known.

The research of the Institute of Chips is still in the initial stage, that is, the micro-scale manufacturing technology.

There are three major challenges in the research of graphene chips, which are micro-scale manufacturing technology, quality of spare parts and relative lifetime.

Now, graphene chips are manufactured using ordinary chemical vapor deposition technology, but this technology is difficult to prepare smaller graphene single crystals.

The so-called single crystal is a graphene crystal.

For example, a 5nm graphene chip, a single crystal is a 5nm graphene crystal.

Now the Institute of Chips is going to develop a technology that can prepare smaller graphene single crystals.

Smaller graphene single crystals can improve the performance of graphene crystals.

For example, graphene chips, 5nm graphene chips have higher performance than 7nm graphene chips.

in the laboratory!

Ye Fei sat in front of the electron microscope and observed the newly configured graphene structure.

Ye Fei changed the angles of different layers of graphene to change the internal structure.

He wanted to find a simple and convenient graphene preparation technology by observing the internal structure.

At the same time, according to the fullerene fusion method developed by himself, Ye Fei also fused graphene with graphene of different layers to see what strange discoveries would be made.

"Huh?" Ye Fei suddenly wondered, "The space between the 1.1-degree angle of the single layer and the 0.67-degree angle of the double layer seems a bit special."

As he said, Ye Fei carefully observed the space in this range of angles.

"Wait!" Ye Fei exclaimed in his heart, "What is this?"

"The purity of this crystal seems to be a little different."

Ye Fei found a very special graphene crystal in the space between the single-layer 1.1-degree angle and the double-layer 0.67-degree angle.

"It seems that this graphene crystal is very pure!"

"Xiao Wu!" Ye Fei shouted without raising his head.

"Director!" A young man who was doing an experiment looked up at Ye Fei and asked, "What's the matter?"

Ye Feidao: "You turn on the detector, and test the purity of the graphene crystal I observed."

Xiao Wu said in surprise: "Director, did you find anything?"

"Do not talk nonsense!"

Hearing Ye Fei's words, Xiao Wu knew that Ye Fei must have discovered something. He was excited and hurried to turn on the detector.

The rest of the lab were not in the mood to do experiments, so they followed to see Xiao Wu's operation.

Soon, the detector's computer screen showed the purity of the graphene crystal Ye Fei was observing.

Ye Feidao: "What is the purity of the graphene crystal I am observing now?"

The eyes of those who were looking at the computer screen widened in surprise.

Ye Fei didn't hear the voice, he looked up at Xiao Wu and the others: "Xiao Wu, talk!"

Xiao Wu woke up like a dream, turned to look at Ye Fei, and said in a daze: "The director is 98.3%."

"What?" Ye Fei stood up in shock and walked to the detector, looking at the computer screen showing 98.3%. "

The purity of graphene crystal with the highest purity in the world is 99.5%.

But 99.5% graphene crystal purity is artificially purified.

The 99.5% graphene crystal purification technology is in the hands of Beiliguo.

The purity of graphene crystals in nature has no lower limit, and the highest is about 95%.

The purity of the 98.3% graphene crystals that Ye Fei has now discovered is [-]%.

That is to say, it does not need to be purified to defeat the graphene crystal purification technology of 99% of the countries.

If purified later, the purity of graphene crystals may exceed 99.5%.

Xiao Wu looked at Ye Fei in surprise, and asked, "Director, how did you do it?"

The rest of the people also looked at Ye Fei in shock.

Ye Fei shook his head and said nothing, looked at everyone and said, "Don't say this, you will know the consequences."

Everyone nodded quickly, they knew the importance of this matter, and no one would get good results if they said it out.

Maybe he was arrested before leaving the Graphene Research Institute.

Ye Fei said: "You continue the experiment, I will go to the dean."

"Also, don't move anyone where I was sitting just now, ten meters away from it."

The crowd nodded.

Ye Fei was still worried, and walked back to the electron microscope where he was sitting just now, and destroyed the graphene crystals under the electron microscope.

Afterwards, Ye Fei walked out of the laboratory in peace and went to find the dean.

director's office!
Ye Fei knocked on the door, and walked in after hearing a voice of please come in.

The dean is talking with Director Gao of the Fullerene Research Institute.

The dean said to Ye Fei, "Wait a minute."

Ye Fei nodded, and then sat down on the sofa.

Soon after the two finished talking, Director Gao stood up and smiled at Ye Fei: "Director Ye, come to my place for tea when you have time."

"Okay!" Ye Fei smiled.

After Director Gao left, Ye Fei sat across from the dean and said, "Dean, a major breakthrough in graphene chips."

"Huh?" The dean said in surprise: "You have only been here for less than a month, and you have made a major breakthrough?"

Ye Feidao: "During my experiment just now, I found an unpurified graphene crystal in nature with a purity of 98.3%."

"Oh, 98.3%!" The dean smiled and said, "Isn't it just 98.3%?"

"Wait?" The dean suddenly froze and said, "How much did you say?"

"98.3%!" Ye Fei said.

"In nature, unpurified graphene crystals?" asked the dean.

"Yeah!" Ye Fei nodded, "Yes!"

The dean took a breath, then stood up in surprise, and said, "Go, take me to see."

"Ok!"

After finishing speaking, the two walked out of the office quickly and walked towards the chip research institute.

The dean was very excited. Sure enough, it was right to find Ye Fei. In less than a month, there was a breakthrough.

Discovery of the purest graphene crystals found in nature.

Such crystals can be purified to a purity of over 99.5%.

Xia Guo's graphene crystal purification technology is not good, but he found that graphene crystals with high purity can also obtain graphene crystals with a purity of 99.5%.

It doesn't matter whether a cat is black or white, as long as it can catch mice, it is a good cat.

The dean thought: "If Lao Zhang is still alive, he will not be able to achieve this achievement in his whole life."

Director Zhang who is in the logistics department: "..."

Ten minutes later, they entered the Institute of Chips, and Ye Fei led the dean into the laboratory.

When the people in the laboratory saw the dean coming, they all stopped their work and looked at the dean and Ye Fei.

Ye Fei sat in front of the electron microscope and said, "Dean, the graphene crystal I discovered was destroyed by me, and I will recreate it for you now."

"Okay!" The dean nodded.

Half an hour later, Ye Fei re-prepared a high-purity graphene crystal, and then displayed it on the detector's display.

Afterwards, Ye Fei stood up from the electron microscope and said, "Dean, look."

The dean first glanced at the data on the display screen of the detector, and then sat in front of the electron microscope to look at the graphene crystal prepared by Ye Fei.

After a while, the dean stood up and said excitedly: "Very good, it really is a graphene crystal with a purity of 98.3%."

"You write the report, and I will notify the above."

"Good!" Ye Fei said.

Two days later, Ye Fei wrote the report, and the dean began to notify the higher-ups.

The higher authorities attached great importance to this matter and personally sent a team of experts to inspect it. After inspection, they found that it was indeed a graphene crystal with a purity of 98.3%.

The team of experts sent from above was led by the director of the Xiaguo Academy of Sciences, the dean of the Xiaguo Materials Research Center, a member of the Xiaguo Materials Academy, and academician Huang Xiuming.

After checking, everyone entered the meeting room and sat down.

Academician Huang looked at Ye Fei with a smile and said, "Academician Ye, it's not easy to make such a major discovery."

"If this news gets out, the whole world will discuss it hotly."

Given the importance of graphene, Ye Fei's discovery can be said to have shocked the world.

Such high-purity graphene crystals can be purified to obtain higher-purity graphene crystals.

If there is a good purification technology, the purity of graphene crystals can be higher.

It may be infinitely close to 100% purity.

The purer the graphene crystals, the better the performance of the things they are made from.

Everyone knows that smaller chips perform better.

For graphene crystals, the higher the purity, the better the performance.

Of course, the smaller the size, the better the performance of graphene crystals.

However, performance is a comprehensive combination.

For example, 99.5% pure graphene crystals perform better than 7nm graphene crystals.

The performance of 5nm graphene crystals is better than that of 99.5% pure graphene crystals.

99% pure 7nm graphene crystals have better performance than 99.5% pure graphene crystals and 5nm graphene crystals.

Therefore, although Xia Guo has not yet developed a good micro-sized manufacturing technology.

But having high-purity graphene crystals can also improve the performance of graphene crystals.

When Ye Fei heard Academician Huang's words, he smiled and said nothing.

Academician Huang said: "We have seen your discovery. It is indeed 98.3% unpurified graphene crystals in nature."

"As for how much pure graphene crystals are finally purified, we still don't know."

"But according to my estimation, it may be purified to 99.7% purity."

For graphene crystals with a purity of more than 99%, every time the purity is increased by 0.1%, the performance will be improved by leaps and bounds.

Although the purity of 99.7% and 99.5% is almost the same, there is actually a big gap.

As for 100% pure graphene crystals, that is just a dream.

If 100% pure graphene crystals appear, the performance is much higher than that of 99.9% pure graphene crystals.

The two are not at the same level.

Everyone was very excited when they heard Academician Huang's words.

99.7% purity!
I didn't even dare to think about it before.

Academician Huang said: "Academician Ye, the Academy of Sciences will purify the graphene crystals you discovered, and after purification, the results will be reported to you as soon as possible."

Xia Guo's best graphene crystal purification technology is in the hands of the Academy of Sciences.

Ye Fei nodded.

"Also, after purification, the Academy of Sciences will announce the news. As you know, our country has always been weak in chips."

"Announcing the news at this time can boost the confidence of the Chinese people and increase their international status."

Ye Fei nodded, he understood the truth.

In the field of chips, Xia Guo has always been weak.

When there is good news, it is good for both the people and the country to announce it.

"So, when the news is announced, your name will be on it. You have to be mentally prepared."

Ye Fei said: "I know!"

"You have to continue to study the purity of graphene crystals, maybe you can find graphene crystals with higher purity!" Academician Huang joked.

He knew that the purity was already so high that graphene crystals with higher purity should not be found.

The rest of the people also smiled, knowing that Academician Huang was joking.

However, Ye Fei took it seriously, and said seriously: "I will. If I can find a higher-purity graphene crystal, I will notify you to come and inspect it."

"Uh..." Seeing that Ye Fei was serious, Academician Huang nodded and said, "Okay, keep working hard!"

Academician Huang shook his head in his heart and said, "This child is too simple."

After the meeting, Academician Huang and others left the Graphene Research Institute.

After half a month!

The Academy of Sciences announced a message to the public.

[Academician of Zhonghu University, academician Ye Fei, discovered graphene crystals with a purity of 98.3% in the Graphene Research Institute.

After being purified by the Academy of Sciences, the purity of the graphene crystals reached 99.7%. 】

Soon after the news was released, it attracted the attention of people from various countries and knowledgeable people.

Many ordinary people don't know what the news means.

But those who understand know that this news can be said to have shocked the entire graphene circle for the graphene industry.

As for Xia Guo, describe it in one sentence.

The chip field is expected to achieve corner overtaking!
