Jinling Institute for Advanced Study.
Institute of Computational Materials.
Because it was lunch break, everyone in the office was relaxed. Other than Qian Zhongming, who was still reading his thesis, most of the other people were either browsing the internet or drinking coffee.
"I heard Jin Ling University organized a networking event a few days ago?"
"Yeah, I heard about it too. I think the foreign language faculty organized an autumn outing, and they stayed at the Purple Mountain Hotel for two nights."
Liu Bo let out a sigh and continued.
"Damn it … Why doesn't our chemistry department have something like this?"
Most of the researchers at the Jinling Institute for Advanced Study had teaching positions at nearby universities. Most of them were from the University of Jin Ling, followed by the Jinling Institute of Technology. After all, the academic leader was Lu Zhou, who won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry and was the founder of computational materials science. The Jinling Institute for Advanced Study's Institute of Computational Materials was one of the top research institutes in the field of materials science.
For a research institute like this, no university would refuse a researcher from the institute to give a lecture here.
Therefore, the researchers also had a share of the faculty's benefits.
Unfortunately, the chemistry department didn't have any activities this year. This October was about to pass peacefully.
Yang Xu heard Liu Bo's sigh and made himself a second cup of coffee. He smiled and spoke.
"Don't even think about it. Even if our chemistry department organized a networking event, do you think those beautiful girls from the foreign language department would be interested? Let's not talk about anything else, just this hairline alone is enough to kill a bunch of people. "
The four biggest sinkholes in the biochemical materials industry. Not only did they make money, but they also made people sigh.
In order to test a set of data, it was common for people to sleep on the floor of the laboratory. It was common for people to stay up until one or two o 'clock in the morning. It might be better for the professors who were already successful. After all, there were many high-quality, hardworking, and willing researchers. However, most of the people who were successful in this field didn't have a lot of hair left on their heads.
However, life still had to be a dream.
Liu Bo was unhappy when he heard Yang Xu's words. He immediately retorted.
"Speaking of baldness, we don't have as much money as the mathematics department, right?"
Yang Xu took a sip of coffee and shook his head. "Not necessarily. Do you think Professor Lu has less hair?"
Liu Bo had a speechless expression on his face. After a while, he finally managed to squeeze out a sentence.
"… I don't think it's appropriate to use that kind of monster as a sample."
Yang Xu smiled and said, "Okay then, after you get off work, you can go to the mathematics department and chemistry department and look at the faculty members who are around your age. You should be able to see what's going on, right?"
As Qian Zhongming listened to the conversation between the two, he couldn't help but interrupt.
"They seem to be around the same age … I'm afraid it won't be easy to find them."
The office fell silent.
No one spoke for a while.
Liu Bo cleared his throat and broke the silence.
"Let's not talk about this sad topic …"
This time, it was rare that everyone in the office reached a tacit agreement. No one spoke again.
The topic of physical age and biological age …
For a material dog like him, it was really too heavy.
The lunch break passed quickly. When it was almost one o 'clock, everyone sitting at their desks had entered the working state. When it was half past one, no one was chatting. Everyone had their own things to do.
Yang Xu went back to his office and sat down. He then turned on his laptop.
Suddenly, he saw an email in his inbox. It was from Lu Zhou.
"… High permeability oxygen molecular separation membrane for lithium-air batteries?"
After glancing at the title of the email, Yang Xu raised his eyebrows with a look of interest. He quickly downloaded the attachment in the email. After opening it, he carefully read it line by line. The more he read, the more shocked he became.
Lithium-air batteries had always been a controversial topic in academia. There were many supporters, but there were also many skeptics. The most fundamental reason was that lithium metal was extremely reactive, and it would react with almost all gases in the air except for rare gases.
In order to solve this problem, one had to separate oxygen from the air and only allow oxygen to enter the reaction system.
The ideal method was to add a layer of molecular sieve or membrane that only allowed oxygen to pass through on the surface of the lithium metal or the air inlet of the battery. It sounded simple, but it was actually quite difficult to do it.
However, in the email attachment, not only did Professor Lu point out a clear research route, but he also listed several feasible technical ideas.
"… Did he do this while researching the Yang-Mills equations?" Yang Xu looked at the last line of the attachment and sighed. He leaned back in his chair and stared at the ceiling. He couldn't help but say, "This guy really is a monster …"
Completing this while researching a world-class problem like the Yang-Mills equations, is he even human?
Of course, Yang Xu didn't know this.
If he knew that in addition to the Yang-Mills equations, Lu Zhou also solved the miniaturization of controllable fusion technology, he would start to doubt his life …
In any case, he already had the technical ideas. As for whether or not it would work, that was up to them.
Yang Xu selected the email that Lu Zhou sent him. He selected the group email in his work email and stood up from his office chair.
Then, he returned to the big office from before, stood at the door, and knocked.
"New mission, we have work to do."
A few researchers in the office raised their heads and looked at him with questioning eyes.
Qian Zhongming was the first to speak. He adjusted his glasses and asked, "New mission? What kind of project? "
Yang Xu gave a concise explanation. "It's a high-permeability oxygen molecule separation membrane. I've already sent the relevant documents to your email."
High-permeability oxygen molecule separation membrane?
The moment Qian Zhongming heard this, a look of surprise appeared on his face.
Liu Bo, who was sitting at the desk not far away, also had a look of shock on his face. He then asked with a trembling voice with a hint of excitement.
"A high-permeability oxygen molecule separation membrane? Don't tell me this topic is … "
"Mhmm." Yang Xu nodded and said, "Our next topic."
"It's a lithium-air battery."
