Let's talk about lithium-air batteries. This is a response to some of the previous book reviews. If you're not interested, you can skip to the next chapter.
Actually, when I wrote about lithium-air batteries, I was a little nervous. This thing itself was a big hole, even bigger than lithium-sulfur batteries. At least there was some hope for lithium-sulfur batteries. However, lithium-air batteries were still a concept. I could guess that there would be people who would believe me.
First of all, lithium-air materials were not as popular as before. Secondly, many of the latest articles were about the mechanism, and there were very few breakthroughs in the material field.
Because honestly, it was too difficult to make a breakthrough in materials science. Materials science was one of the three pillars of modern science. Otherwise, when the "magic horn" of graphene was first discovered, it would not have caused such a sensation.
It's actually quite funny. I don't remember if it was' 16 or '17. When I wrote about graphene superconductivity in my first book, there were people who pretended to be knowledgeable and criticized me. They even said that graphene superconductivity was impossible.
At that time, the concept of "magic horn" had not been discovered yet. Graphene superconductivity was just a concept, so it was understandable for people to criticize me. However, if you look back in 2019, wouldn't that be a slap in the face?
After a scientific point of view was put forward, there would definitely be pros and cons. Some people were optimistic about it, and some people were pessimistic about it.
However, no matter how unreliable lithium-air batteries were, there was still a big name like Tarascon, right? Why can't science fiction be written when there are people doing it in real life?
Unless you're the kind of person who can throw a thesis in his face at a report, I suggest you save your breath.
If you really want to show off, I can give you a better idea. There is an article in Nature-Materials called "LiO2-and-Li – S-batteries-with-high-energy-storage". When I was writing this article, many of my data and ideas came from this article, and then I made some artistic adjustments.
Even for a layman like me, this article's concept of lithium-air batteries was a bit too optimistic, but it was a sub-journal of Nature. Even though you probably won't be able to publish it to Nature, if the lithium-air concept is so unreliable that it can't even be used in science fiction, why don't you contact Nature and ask them to withdraw the article?
To avoid "misleading" more people, right?
To put it bluntly, I'm just a writer of science fiction. At most, I'm based on some existing research results and artistically processed it according to my personal understanding. I've already written about this in my acceptance speech.
Similarly, no matter which thesis I "copied" from to implement this lithium-air battery, it was ridiculous to expect it to work in real life.
If I write about space elevators or something even more exaggerated in the future, wouldn't that be bad? No one on Earth is working in this direction, but there are some things that I have even foreshadowed in the first chapter.
To put it bluntly, the purpose of science fiction is not to spread knowledge or solve problems. That's what science and scientists do.
The greatest contribution that science fiction can provide to society is that it can make most people feel happy, but it can also make a small number of people interested in science. Some people might even eventually embark on this "thorny but interesting" path.
Our society is in dire need of such warriors.
Unfortunately, I don't have the ability to do scientific research, so I can only read the articles of big names and listen to them brag.
But if one day in the future, someone who reads my article becomes a great scholar many years later, then I can confidently say that I can brag about it for the rest of my life.
But if you learn so many things just to test whether a certain sci-fi novel can be realized or not …
Actually, I feel sorry for your supervisor. He probably taught you for nothing.
Let's cut the crap and explain the problem of the eruption.
The chapters have been manually reviewed for the past few days, and it's easy for bugs to appear. Although the explosion can happen, some people complain that it keeps getting swallowed, so it's better to wait for the explosion to pass.
On June 1st, I will definitely explode!
At the same time, I also hope that when the time comes, all the big shots will reserve a guaranteed monthly ticket for me on account of my consecutive outbursts this month. The higher the monthly vote ranking, the more motivation I have. (*/ω *)
