[HCS-2 Material: The Terminator of the Shuttle Effect]
Theses that were highlighted were often the most outstanding research results in the current issue of the journal.
Not only was the title of Lu Zhou's thesis selected for the cover, but it was also included in the science and technology review section. The reviewer, Professor Bawendi, also had a review of Lu Zhou's thesis.
Even though the review was only a few words …
[To be honest, I didn't believe the data in the thesis until I followed his experiment report and did it myself.]
It was also this short line of evaluation that made a certain someone's face turn red with shame when he saw it …
At Binghamton University in New York.
The latest issue of Science was spread out on the table along with an experiment report.
Professor Stanley was sitting in front of Lu Zhou's desk.
But at this moment, there wasn't even a trace of anger left on his face, only disbelief and bewilderment.
Looking at the experiment report, Woods sighed softly and said with a hint of disappointment in his voice, "We lost."
Professor Stanley's throat moved. He wanted to say something, but he didn't say a word.
Three days ago, when he received this journal, it was like he was struck by lightning.
He couldn't believe that Lu Zhou could produce such major research results in such a short period of time.
Especially the data in the experiment report, it was so beautiful that it looked like it was made up.
Like Professor Bawendi, he repeated the experiment on the contents of the experiment report.
However, the final result was so perfect that it made him desperate.
Even though there were some fluctuations in the data due to the different drugs and equipment used, it was still consistent with the results in Lu Zhou's thesis …
What was the premise of science?
It could be repeated.
What was the premise of industrialization?
It had to be repeatable and stable.
There was no doubt that this technology already had these two elements. Coupled with the superior performance of the HCS-2 material, it was obvious who the market would choose.
Professor Stanley couldn't help but have a bitter expression on his face.
Not being able to repeat the experiment was his weakness.
Even though he had been trying to remedy the situation, the academic community and the industry obviously didn't have unlimited patience. Especially since the emergence of the HCS-2 material, major energy companies had begun to design lithium-sulfur battery products according to the HCS-2 material standard.
Even if he tried to save it, it would be too late …
However, Professor Stanley couldn't bear to see his hard work for the past six months go down the drain.
He couldn't help but speak.
"Give me another six months! I'll definitely come up with a satisfactory solution — "
"It doesn't make any sense, my dear Professor Stanley," Woods interrupted him and sighed. His voice was a little lonely. "Unless you can do better than him, what's the point of saying that? Not to mention … "
Woods paused for a second and said, "Not to mention, maybe by the time your research results are out, they will have already developed HCS-3 or even HCS-4."
Professor Stanley opened his mouth, but he couldn't say a word.
Woods didn't say anything more. He didn't even scold him. He just patted him on the shoulder and walked away.
Contrary to Professor Stanley's despair, the birth of the HCS-2 material set off an earthquake in the energy industry.
After the lithium dendrite problem was solved, the industry embraced traditional lithium batteries, and people began to use mobile phones and laptops with longer battery life.
Since then, many people began to look forward to the bright future brought about by the next generation of advanced lithium-sulfur batteries.
But now, it seemed that this dream had become a reality while it was still in the process of brewing.
A lot of OEM battery production factories had just completed the transformation of the production line and adjusted the production capacity of lithium-ion batteries to lithium batteries. Now, they had to continue to design new production adjustment plans and start preparing for the new era of lithium-sulfur batteries …
…
Ever since Lu Zhou's thesis was published, he was glad that he established Star Sky Technology. He was able to handle a series of patent licensing and pricing issues to his managers and legal department.
Otherwise, forget about rest time, just dealing with all kinds of patent authorization calls would be enough to annoy him to death …
On a sunny morning, on Lake Carnegie on the Princeton campus, a small quad-rotor drone flew over the kayaking team.
Under the whistles and screams of the kayakers and cheerleaders, the little guy with the camera circled around Lake Carnegie and flew back to the park next to Lake Carnegie, slowly landing on the lawn.
On the other hand, a few students sitting on a park bench looked at the photos on the computer screen and made strange noises.
"Oh my god, look what I got!"
"Chris isn't wearing a bra!"
"This is big news …"
"Hey, give me a copy of the photo."
Obviously, when these guys were taking aerial photos around Lake Carnegie, they used the drone to take some photos.
Lu Zhou, who was standing next to him, coughed and warned the group of restless young men.
"Jimmy, I agreed to be your technical consultant to help you win the competition, not to watch you invade other people's privacy."
"Sorry, professor, I'll delete the photos." The freckled boy lowered his head and silently deleted all the photos in front of Lu Zhou.
Although it was cool to show off these kinds of photos on social media, it was not a friendly thing for the victims and their clubs who were photographed.
As the leader of this group of tech geeks, he had to be responsible for his friends.
After making sure that Jimmy deleted all the photos, Lu Zhou looked at his silver watch and said, "Flight time is 30 minutes, check the battery."
Jimmy put his laptop aside and stood up from the bench.
"Okay, professor, I'll go right away."
Lu Zhou said, "Call me coach."
"Yes, coach!"
Jimmy immediately straightened his back, yelled energetically, and jogged over to the drone on the lawn amidst the laughter of his friends.
It was already the end of summer. Not only was fall and the Ivy League football game coming up, but there were also all kinds of colorful competitions.
For example, the drone design competition was one of them. As a popular competition for engineering majors in American universities, its popularity in recent years was no less than robot competitions and artificial intelligence competitions.
Even though engineering wasn't Princeton's strong suit, these Princeton geniuses were still very capable. The drone was made by themselves. The materials used were either bought online or bought on credit from other professors' laboratories.
As their consultant, Lu Zhou also participated in the production of this drone.
As for how Lu Zhou became a consultant for these students, it was actually quite a coincidence.
These students originally went to Professor Chirik to ask how to improve the battery of the drone and increase its endurance. Professor Chirik immediately recommended them to Lu Zhou.
There were still a lot of samples left after the experiment. Lu Zhou used the equipment from Frick's laboratory to help them replace the positive electrode material and electrolyte in the battery.
Even though this kind of DIY product was definitely not as good as standardized industrial products, it was still a piece of black technology for a student competition.
It had more than doubled the original endurance of the drone.
This work was very interesting, especially when Lu Zhou saw his own research results flying into the sky. It was like opening a door to a whole new world for him.
Compared to competitive sports like rugby and soccer, he felt that this kind of hobby with a little technical content was more suitable for him.
Later on, because they got along well during the technical discussions, Lu Zhou received a lot of inspiration from these students. Therefore, he accepted their invitation and became their club consultant.
Therefore, he had a new title — Chief Consultant of the Princeton University Drone Club.
Of course, even though he was a consultant, there weren't many things that he needed to do. These students knew that he was very busy, so they didn't bother him.
At most, he would spend an afternoon or a few hours on the weekends to discuss some technical problems. Or, like now, he would watch them fly the drone.
While Lu Zhou was watching the group of students continue to fly the drone, a lady in a business suit with long blonde hair walked into the park.
Behind her, there was an assistant and a cameraman carrying a video camera. This lineup clearly did not look like people from the school.
Lu Zhou noticed that the lady was walking toward him. He retracted his gaze from the sky and looked at her.
"You are?"
The lady smiled at him and handed him a business card.
