Starting from a top student and marching towards the sea of ​​stars

Chapter 132 The Chinese Academy of Sciences is still better

This rate of accumulation of subject experience is even faster than Ning Chen's rate of gaining subject experience through experiments.

A similar situation happened before when Ning Chen and Liu Xu took a plane together to go to MIT.

It's just that the subject experience gained from chatting with Liu Xu is less than that gained from communicating with Tao Wei.

Ning Chen felt that this was because he was able to learn a lot about this profession from them when communicating with these experts.

The more top experts you communicate with, the more obvious the improvement in your subject experience will be.

Ning Chen thought that he would have more opportunities to communicate with these experts in the future, so that he could improve the subject level of each subject faster.

"Ning Chen, do you have any new directions for future research on superconductivity?"

"Academician Tao, I want to continue research on iron-based superconductivity. I think this structure can be further expanded to include more complex structures."

Tao Wei is also very supportive of Ning Chen's idea. This is exactly the direction Tao Wei hopes Ning Chen can continue.

"Well, it's great that you have this idea. Ning Chen, if you have any needs in research, you can contact me and I will try my best to help you."

Ning Chen wasn't sure if Tao Wei was sincere in telling him this, or if he was just being polite.

However, thinking that Tao Wei had traveled all the way from Yanjing to Shengzhou in order to meet him, Ning Chen felt that there was no need for Tao Wei to be polite to him.

Thinking of this, Ning Chen tentatively asked:

"Academician Tao, I would like to take the liberty to ask, do you know if there is any equipment in China that can complete molecular beam epitaxy technology?"

After hearing Ning Chen's question, Tao Wei asked curiously:
"What, Ning Chen, do you want to make single crystal films?"

"Yes, this experiment may help us better understand the core mechanism of this iron-based superconducting system. We at Shengzhou University currently do not have such equipment. I also asked friends at Shuimu University and Yanda University, and they all said Their school doesn’t have such equipment.”

After listening to Ning Chen's explanation, Tao Wei smiled and said:

"It seems that in many fields, our Chinese Academy of Sciences is better in China."

Noticing Tao Wei's expression and tone, Ning Chen also knew that there was probably something wrong with this matter.

Although it is recognized that the two best schools in China are Shuimu and Yanda, in terms of scientific research level and scientific research funding, Shuimu and Yanda are not as good as the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

"Ning Chen, let's get ready, and then go directly to the Chinese Academy of Sciences with me to do experiments."

"Ok?"

Ning Chen never expected that Tao Wei would decide so readily to take Ning Chen to the Chinese Academy of Sciences for experiments, and immediately thanked Tao Wei:

"Thank you, Academician Tao. I'll go and prepare now."

"Haha, there is no need to be in such a hurry. I will stay in Shengzhou for two days. In addition to Shengzhou University, I will also go to the Shengzhou National Laboratory of Materials Science. You can prepare the experimental plan carefully these two days. Okay, when we return to the Chinese Academy of Sciences, we will try to complete the experiment as soon as possible."

Ning Chen knew how precious this opportunity was, because apart from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, this experiment could only be done by foreign laboratories.

Even if Ning Chen could contact some foreign academic leaders through some connections, it would definitely not be that easy to apply for the use of equipment in these laboratories.

In the next two days, Ning Chen carefully prepared the experimental procedures related to molecular beam epitaxy technology.

Ning Chen had no experience with related equipment, and could only learn some theoretical knowledge through the information Xiaozhi could search.

Two days later, Ning Chen, along with Tao Wei and others, boarded a plane to Yanjing.

Going to Yanjing again, Ning Chen couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion in his heart.

Ever since Ning Chen rose to prominence in mathematics and began conducting various scientific research projects, Yanjing has become the city where Ning Chen has spent the longest time besides Shengzhou.

Ning Chen was thinking about whether he should tell Song Xiyun and Lin You that he was going to Yanjing again.

However, because this trip to Yanjing was a bit sudden, Ning Chen felt that it was better not to tell them the news in a hurry. After all, he might not have time to find them in the end.

The most important thing now is to successfully complete the experiment in front of us.After arriving at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Tao Wei's assistant Luo Fang first helped Ning Chen arrange a temporary dormitory so that Ning Chen could have a good rest here and help Ning Chen arrange experiments tomorrow.

It was indeed getting late today. Ning Chen probably got familiar with the environment of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and then returned to the dormitory to prepare for the next day's experiment.

The next morning, Ning Chen woke up early. After packing, he went to the Institute of Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences under the guidance of Luo Fang.

"Ning Chen, Academician Tao has something to do today, so he may not come over. This is Teacher Deng Hang who is assisting you in your experiment today."

Ning Chen was too embarrassed to let Tao Wei personally tutor him in doing experiments. Ning Chen was very satisfied if someone could teach him how to do experiments.

"Hello, Teacher Deng!"

"Hello, Ning Chen! I have read your three papers on iron-based superconductivity before. They are really excellent results. I didn't expect you to be so young!"

Ning Chen is only in the first year of his direct master's degree, and he also skipped two years in the undergraduate stage, so he will naturally look younger in appearance.

After the two chatted for a while, Deng Hang took Ning Chen to the place where the experiment was conducted.

Ning Chen looked at the various instruments in the laboratory and immediately found the molecular beam epitaxy equipment.

After all, Ning Chen has learned a lot about this technology before. Even if he has no practical experience, at least the relevant theories, Ning Chen has no problem at all.

Deng Hang first told Ning Chen about the basic principles and usage of molecular beam epitaxy equipment. Through the conversation between the two, Deng Hang discovered that Ning Chen was no stranger to these things.

"Ning Chen, have you ever come into contact with this kind of equipment before?"

"No, Teacher Deng, I just learned some relevant knowledge online."

"Really? But I feel like you have really used this kind of equipment and understand all the details very well."

Speaking of which, Ning Chen still has to thank Xiaozhi for his help. Xiaozhi not only helped Ning Chen search for relevant knowledge, but also summarized and organized the knowledge very well, so that Ning Chen could study more conveniently.

"It's just talk on paper. Experiments still require practical ability."

"Well, that's true. It doesn't matter. Academician Tao has already told me that I will do my best to help you complete the experiment. I will show you some basic operations first. After you are familiar with it, we will learn some more complex ones. operate."

After Deng Hang started to operate, Ning Chen carefully checked every detail of Deng Hang's operation, not daring to slack off at all.

Sure enough, in actual operation, Ning Chen was able to learn more details that could not be learned based on theoretical knowledge alone.

After Deng Hang demonstrated it, Ning Chen also tried it.

In fact, Deng Hang was still a little uneasy at this time. After all, these instruments were valuable. If you were not careful, there would be a risk of damage to the instruments.

But after Ning Chen got started, Deng Hang gradually relaxed as he watched Ning Chen's operations.

Although Ning Chen's operation was somewhat dull at the beginning, the overall operation was very qualified and did not violate any experimental equipment requirements.

And it didn't take long for Ning Chen's operations to become familiar. Even Deng Hang couldn't tell that Ning Chen was a novice who had just learned these operations.

"Ning Chen, your learning speed is impressive! No wonder you can do so well in scientific research. I have never seen a student learn so fast before."

Deng Hang was not being polite to Ning Chen, but was really amazed by Ning Chen's learning speed.

Even for students from the National University of Science and Technology, it is very rare for them to be familiar with the equipment of molecular beam epitaxy in a few days.

But it has only been less than an hour since Ning Chen came into contact with the equipment. Ning Chen is already very proficient in using these equipment and performing various basic operations.

"It's Teacher Deng's guidance that is better." Ning Chen said with a smile.

It is natural for Ning Chen to learn quickly. On the one hand, Ning Chen had already done a very thorough preparation before this.

Coupled with Ning Chen's strong learning ability, Ning Chen had already memorized all the details just after watching Deng Hang's operations.
