I Have a Research Support System

After chatting for a while at 218, Wei Xingsi took Wu Shengnan to visit the Handan laboratory, accompanied by Xu Qiu and Wu Feifei.

"This experimental bench is UV-vis, PL, electrochemical workstation, you should be familiar with it..."

"Over there are our two glove boxes, where we usually prepare organic and perovskite battery devices..."

"This big black guy is a thermoelectric test platform built by Duan Yun himself..."

"besides……"

Teacher Wei introduced all the instruments and equipment in the laboratory.

Back in the 216 office area, Wei Xingsi casually asked Wu Feifei, "Are there any free seats here?"

Wu Feifei did not answer directly, but pointed to the desk and said: "This is Tian Qing and Duan Yun, this is Xu Qiu, Chen Wanqing and Han Jiaying, and this is me and Sun Wo." After finishing speaking, her He looked at the position with his back against the door, implying that there was only room left over there.

Wei Xingsi turned his head to discuss with Wu Shengnan: "The area here is relatively small, and the location is a bit tight, or you usually work in my office, and I have a spare desk over there, which was originally prepared for Wu Feifei, but She doesn't come here often."

Wu Shengnan weighed the pros and cons in his mind, and quickly made a decision, pointing to a place near the door, and said, "Let me sit here."

The door of room 216 is double-opened to the outside of the corridor, and usually only opens on one side. She chose the front of the door that is not often opened. She feels that this position is better than working under the nose of the boss. Although it is worse, it is not unacceptable.

In addition, Wu Shengnan made some calculations about his own scientific research results, and only steadily surpassed Sun Wo, an undergraduate student who had just joined the group for a few months. Wu Feifei and Xu Qiu both surpassed her. As for the other four people in the group, for the time being It looks like it's a 50-50 split with her.

In such a Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon research group, she did not take her post-doctorate status too seriously, but focused on hugging her thighs, so she had to get acquainted with other people in the office as much as possible. 216 is obviously more convenient.

Wei Xingsi was not surprised by Wu Shengnan's choice, he said: "Well, if you need anything, you can tell me at any time, or you can ask Wu Feifei and Xu Qiu in the group."

"Okay." Seeing that Teacher Wei wanted to leave, Wu Shengnan took the initiative to say: "Teacher, then you are busy first."

Wei Xingsi nodded, turned around and returned to 218.

The arrival of Wu Shengnan did not have a big impact on the operation of the research group. She is a skilled worker with more than six years of work experience, and she can get started directly. Most of the equipment in the group can use it. As in the group, Wu Feifei was arranged to give special guidance.

Tian Qing happily handed over the documents related to "perovskite quantum dots" and her only experimental record of failed synthesis in Zhangjiang to Wu Shengnan, completing the work handover.

Wei Xingsi arranged three tasks for Wu Shengnan, first to continue her doctoral research, that is, the synthesis of photoluminescent color-changing materials in the triphenylamine system, second to sort out the literature related to perovskite quantum dots, write a review, and finally to write a review on the Find your own research direction during the review writing process.

The first and third missions have to go to Zhangjiang for synthesis, but considering that the May 1st holiday is about to take place, if the synthesis can only be done halfway, Wu Shengnan is not in a hurry to go to Zhangjiang, but stays temporarily. In Handan, while sorting out the documents, I got to know everyone in the research group.

Wednesday morning.

Han Jiaying made two batches of devices in total. The highest efficiency of her B4T-8 series molecular devices reached 9.21%, and she completed the repeatability experiment of the devices.

At the same time, she is also processing the data of the B3T-6 series of molecules. In order to quickly write the EES article, this part of the data has not had time to process, and many of them are still in the original data state.

During this period, Xu Qiu completed the final draft of the EES article.

The text of most SCI academic journals is composed of title, author, keywords, abstract, introduction, results and discussion, conclusion, acknowledgments, references, etc., but some journals will be more "maverick", make some new something comes out:

For example, some journals have a "Highlights" column, which requires that the highlights of the article be listed directly. Unlike keywords, this "highlight" is more direct and can be written longer, such as writing a sentence, more than ten words.

For another example, the EES journal has an additional column of "Broader context (broader background)". Although it can be roughly inferred what it does from the literal meaning, in order to avoid misunderstandings, Xu Qiu still read a few other articles. Published EES articles.

It turned out that other people in the "broader background" first described in detail the current status of the subdivided fields and existing problems, and finally fell back to how this work solved these problems.

It's almost like stitching the introduction, abstract, and conclusion together, which looks a bit like a cover letter.

In any case, to submit a manuscript to someone else's journal, you must follow the rules set by the other party. Xu Qiu followed suit and wrote:

First, we described the development process of PDI molecules, and then highlighted that the 3D-PDI strategy can solve the problem of high crystallinity of PDI, and can provide charge transport in three-dimensional space, and then showed that we broke the efficiency world record in the field of PDI, and finally Let me sublimate it again, mentioning that the potential of 3D-PDI is very high, and it deserves further research attention.

Although Xu Qiu didn't think the potential was very high, and he didn't want to do further research, but in the article, he still wanted to brag about his work.

In the afternoon, Xu Qiu and Teacher Wei corrected the article for a long time, and then asked the seniors to review it again. After dinner, the article was submitted.

There was a small episode when I submitted the article this time.

Speaking of which, this is Xu Qiu's first time submitting to a journal under RSC.

The RSC template in the group is a double-column typesetting modeled after the final publication style of the article, rather than a single-column typesetting that does not consider style like ACS and Wiley.

Moreover, journals under the RSC will insert a horizontal bar between the article illustration and the text to separate it.

Therefore, they encountered typesetting problems during the process of uploading article attachments and converting WORD to PDF.

In the converted PDF file, the position of the horizontal bar is shifted, causing the horizontal bar to be covered under the image and cannot be displayed normally.

It stands to reason that this kind of "problem" that does not affect the reading experience is not a big problem. After all, it is only a review now. When the final article is officially published, the editor will help to adjust the format again.

But to Wei Xingsi, this kind of format problem is like a firefly in the dark night, as dazzling as the brightest star in the night sky, and he spotted it at a glance.

In the end, the two insisted on messing with it for 20 minutes, changed it three or four times, and finally solved the problem by adding spaces.

The article was submitted, Xu Qiu returned from 218, thinking in the corridor, "The crayfish last Thursday was quite delicious, why don't I take Han Jiaying to eat again tonight, although the school girl talks about losing weight, But when you encounter delicious food, you will definitely not be able to control yourself. This plan is good. '

When he returned to the door of 216, he suddenly saw Chen Wanqing staring at him with burning eyes, as if he had been waiting for a long time.

Hiss, Xu Qiu gasped, instinctively felt something was wrong, but it was too late.

"Schoolmate~" Chen Wanqing's voice was as sweet as drinking a cup of caramel milk tea with whole sugar, "Your article has been rejected, please help me revise mine, please~"

"Okay." Xu Qiu reluctantly agreed, sat back on his seat, and looked at the junior girl next to him apologetically. Han Jiaying was a little confused, and returned a puzzled expression. At this moment, she didn't know what she missed.

Xu Qiu didn't explain, but stroked the senior girl's hair, then took the USB flash drive from the senior sister, copied the file to the computer, and muttered in his heart, "It's really seamless, this is the fifth sister of the senior sister." I don’t know if the writing level has improved. '

The file name is "AM_draft22.docx", it seems that the senior sister has changed 22 versions by herself.

This is not the first time that Xu Qiu has helped her sister revise an article, so I don't feel surprised. Sometimes she can make several versions a day, and basically keep a backup for every small change.

Xu Qiu also has this habit, but the number of iterative versions is not as exaggerated as that of his senior sister. Generally, it is about 3-6 versions, numbered from 1, and when he gets the final version, the number after the file will be deleted, leaving only " Journal name_draft" as the file name.

Xu Qiu clicked on the text file, and after three seconds of loading, the WORD text appeared on the computer screen, and then turned on the review mode, so that he could record the details of every modification he made, and then operated the keyboard and mouse to check carefully.

The title is quite satisfactory, "Design, synthesis and optoelectronic application of a novel ADA electron acceptor based on ICIN structure".

The author is the first author of the senior sister, the second author of Xu Qiu, the third author of the junior sister, and the fourth author of Mr. Wei to hang up the newsletter. It is also normal, and no strange people have been mixed in.

For the text, Xu Qiu scanned the pictures first. The senior has improved a lot in this regard, and found no obvious formatting problems.

Then start with the summary.

The first sentence is okay.

In the second sentence, there is a grammatical error, and the definite article "the" is missing, please fill it up quickly.

The third sentence is easy to read, but it looks a bit awkward. After reading it four or five times, I adjusted the word order and it looks much more comfortable.

The fourth sentence is okay.

The fifth sentence is a bit weird, oh, it turns out that the senior sister has developed a new usage of attributive clauses, which is awesome.

The sixth sentence, written... is not bad, I won't change it for now, let Teacher Wei have a headache.

The last sentence, "obtained an efficiency of 6.1%".

Add an adjective here to describe this efficiency. Although it is not the first in the world, it is also the second in the world. It deserves an adjective.

How can I add it?

Xu Qiu fell into a tangle...
