Chapter 65

Chensheng Technology Industrial Park.

In the semiconductor material laboratory, in addition to the team studying monocrystalline silicon, there is also a special research team engaged in bacterial research.

To be honest, it is impossible to say that everyone is not curious about the emergence of a team studying bacteria in the Semiconductor Materials Laboratory.

It's just that this curiosity is limited to this laboratory.

The outside world didn't even know that there was actually a biological team in this newly established laboratory.

Even Qin Ruolan didn't know about this.

Thanks to the recruitment of the last cloning experiment, Lu Chen gained a large number of contact information of scientific researchers. This time, he spent a lot of money to poach some scientific researchers who specialize in bacterial research from this group of people.

"It's incredible!"

In the laboratory, a researcher in a white coat said while looking at the microscope.

After a while, he raised his head and looked at the colleagues around him, his face flushed with excitement.

"We succeeded. This mutated bacterium can really swallow industrial silicon."

When my colleague heard this, he couldn't help showing an ecstatic expression on his face. When he saw this mutated bacteria for the first time, he was 180 in disbelief.

Although bacteria are the most diverse organisms on earth, and there are at least 5×10^30 bacteria in the biological world, he has never heard of bacteria that can swallow single crystal silicon.

This is not the most miraculous place, the most miraculous part is that after the bacteria devour the monocrystalline silicon, they will digest the impurities in it and secrete the pure monocrystalline silicon.

From a human point of view, it will devour all impurities except silicon, and only excrete pure silicon, showing its extreme aversion to silicon.

Therefore, this bacterium is also named as silicon-averse bacteria.

Amazing!

How can such miraculous bacteria exist in nature.

It should be known that the impurities in single crystal silicon are very complex, including both organic and inorganic substances.

However, this silicon-averse bacterium is not picky at all, and it eats everything except monocrystalline silicon.

"Has the monocrystalline silicon laboratory tested the purity of this silicon?"

The person who spoke was about forty years old, bald, and slightly fat. This person was Qian Jun, who was experimenting with organ cloning.

After the failure of the organ cloning experiment, Qian Jun returned to the school to teach, but unexpectedly, Lu Chen brought him over again. After all, the employment relationship between the two parties was not over yet.

After Lu Chen found him, he asked him to be the person in charge of the biology laboratory. After this experiment was done, he was probably the most excited.

This is a huge discovery that shocked the entire biological and material world.

Bacteria can actually play a role in purifying materials, which has never been seen before.

You know, this is not a general purification, but to increase the purity of single crystal silicon from 6N (industrial grade) to 11N (electronic grade), which can be said to be a subversive purification.

If you use industrial and chemical means, you don't know how many extremely complicated processes and how many advanced equipment you need to go through.

But now, it is only necessary to cultivate a mutated bacterium called silicon-averse bacterium, and everything will be solved. From the perspective of cost, the two are just like the sky and the earth.

As long as the monocrystalline silicon laboratory gives the test results, everyone will know whether the technical information given by Mr. Lu is reliable or not.

Bacteria purify monocrystalline silicon.

It's really beyond the limits of human imagination.

"Professor Qian, the samples have been sent for testing."

"Ah."

Qian Jun nodded in satisfaction.

He walks a little lightly now. In fact, even if the silicon-hating bacteria cannot purify industrial silicon to the level of electronic silicon, it will not be a big problem to Qian Jun.

Because this experiment was done by him, even if he only gave him the name of a second author on the thesis, he can easily be promoted as a full professor of the school based on this.

As for the first work, he didn't dare to think about it. After all, this experiment was a repeated experiment based on the technical information provided by Lu Chen. There could be a second work, which was the reward Lu Chen promised to give him.

Qian Jun knew his true level.

Being able to be a full professor is his limit, no matter how greedy he is, he will be unworthy.

this afternoon.

Lu Chen immediately knew the test results of the semiconductor material laboratory.

The purity of the monocrystalline silicon secreted by the silicon-averse bacteria reached an astonishing 99.9999999999999% (15N). When everyone measured this result, they could hardly believe their eyes.

The purity of 15N monocrystalline silicon is a hundred times higher than the laboratory level of Shin-Etsu Daily Chemical.

As for the most advanced 12N monocrystalline silicon on the market, it is a thousand times higher, it is simply crushed!
The significance of monocrystalline silicon, which is a thousand times more pure than 12N electronic silicon, in making chips is estimated to be understood only by those engaged in this industry.

It means that even under the existing process technology, the use of 15N monocrystalline silicon may be able to push the process one step further.

As we all know, as the chip manufacturing process reaches 3nm, it has basically approached the physical limit, and the tunneling effect of transistors is becoming more and more obvious.

However, transistors made of high-purity single crystal silicon can obviously avoid the tunneling effect of electrons to a great extent, which makes it possible for another breakthrough in the chip process.

In fact, this is also a very normal thing. Every progress in materials will inevitably lead to technological progress.

The industry has been discussing the use of other materials to replace silicon wafers as new chip manufacturing materials, and major laboratories are also actively researching.

Major laboratories also continue to release smoke bombs, saying that the research on carbon nanotubes has reached a certain number of processes.

However, for now, the status of silicon wafers in the semiconductor industry is still irreplaceable.

"How was the test result?"

Even though he knew the result, Lu Chen asked again after rushing to the laboratory.

"Mr. Lu, the purity of monocrystalline silicon purified by silicon-averse bacteria has reached 15N!"

The person in charge of the monocrystalline silicon laboratory said with a complicated face.

No wonder the other party was in a complicated mood. Originally, they were the main force in the research of high-purity monocrystalline silicon, but they were picked by a group of biological experts.

This is like a group of basketball players being blocked by a football player. This feeling is really uncomfortable.

Lu Chen couldn't care less about comforting the other party, anyway, the other party was just a tool person in his eyes, even the group of people in the biology laboratory were just tool people.

The technical information is all given by the technology editor.

To be honest, when Lu Chen saw this technical document for the first time, his eyes almost exploded.

His current biological knowledge is at the undergraduate level, but this is the first time he has heard of bacteria that can purify single crystal silicon.

Is this the bio-silicon method?
