I Have a Research Support System

After more than a day, Xu Qiu focused his energy on the "Joule" article, and finally submitted the article on Tuesday afternoon.

Wei Xingsi spoke highly of this article, saying: "This review will definitely arouse strong repercussions in the industry."

In fact, this is what Xu Qiu wants to see. After all, this review contains a lot of his scientific research ideas. One person's energy is limited. Even if you add a few other members of the organic photovoltaic team in the group, there is no way to cover everything. .

It would be great if colleagues in the same industry can come to help.

In addition, in the field of organic photovoltaics, most articles have seven, eight or even a dozen authors, and articles with only two authors account for a very small proportion, which will attract extra attention. In addition, the quality of Xu Qiu's article is also very high. Not low, if it can arouse repercussions in the industry, it can also greatly accumulate its own influence.

The number of authors of an academic paper is usually relatively large, which is a practice in the industry, because most research groups work in teams, and there are very few solitary wolves, and some work is completed through collaboration across research groups.

However, there are exceptions to everything.

Some top academic leaders have many students under their command. Although they will guide students' projects and assume the responsibility of a mentor, their research fields will not allow students to intervene.

The authors of the articles they publish on the top journal of CNS only name the boss alone, or bring another boss, and do not "play" with the students.

The reason may be because of some kind of "cleanliness" and I don't want my achievements to be shared with others.

Of course, there is also a very small possibility that the top bigwigs are pointing to this job to win the Nobel Prize.

There is a "three-person principle" in the selection of the Nobel Prize, that is, the number of winners of each Nobel Prize is limited to three in each session. This is an official decision made by the Nobel Foundation in 1968.

Some places in foreign countries believe that all the authors signed in an academic article have the same contribution to the article, and they should not be forcibly distinguished from each other.

In other words, once the number of authors of a paper that is expected to hit the Nobel Prize exceeds three or reaches four or more, it may affect the evaluation of the Nobel Prize.

In China, everyone thinks that for an article, the contribution of the first author and the corresponding author is relatively large, and the same is true in terms of remuneration.

It’s okay to be a non-first author or a non-corresponding author. Once the article has academic misconduct in the future, such as falsification, fabrication, and plagiarism, all authors will be responsible.

Even if it is a nominal 45678 work, it will be implicated, leaving a stain on my academic career, and if it is serious, even the road to scientific research will come to an end.

It's a bit like the benefit of the first author, the corresponding author takes it, and everyone takes it together when they make a mistake.

Therefore, some people are more cautious. If they only hang up four, five, six, seven, eight, they will not be willing to hang up. What if it is a time bomb?

Speaking of the issue of author ranking, the domestic ranking of patents is somewhat "internationalized".

As long as the person's name is on the patent, he is regarded as one of the inventors of the patent. The order of the names will hardly affect the size of the rights. When the patent is used, it also needs to be negotiated and agreed by all patent inventors. .

Of course, when evaluating professional titles, the ranking of patent inventors still plays a role. Generally, the top four are given bonus points. The higher the ranking, the more bonus points. However, in the academic circle, this extra point rule is usually seldom used, and it is usually the results of SCI papers.

After finishing the "Joule" article, Xu Qiu didn't immediately write the articles about the two scraping work that the senior sister and the junior sister were in charge of. Instead, he planned to change his mind and start planning the relocation of Zhangjiang's laboratory.

Because just recently, the H5 and J4 donor materials of the schoolgirls, and the IHIC and 4TIC acceptor materials of the postdoctoral schoolmates have all been synthesized, and moving now will not affect their experimental progress.

In the evening, Xu Qiu opened several documents on the computer, namely the "Zhangjiang Drug List" compiled by the school girl, the "National List of Hazardous Chemicals" forwarded to him by Wei Xingsi, and the "Implementation Measures for Laboratory Relocation" issued by the department .

The first one, Han Jiaying's "drug list", the school girl's statistics are quite careful, all of which are organized in an EXCEL form, with two Sheet pages.

Page 1 draws a schematic diagram of the drug storage locations in Zhang Jiang's laboratory.

The laboratory in Zhangjiang has a large area. In addition to the ordinary reagent cabinets and special reagent cabinets for storing medicines, medicines can also be stored under many test benches. There are a total of 9 storage locations, all of which are marked by numbers by the school girl. .

Page 2 shows detailed information such as the packaging type of all existing drugs in Zhangjiang, whether they have been opened, packaging capacity, estimated remaining amount, and storage location number.

With this list, it is much more convenient when moving, and you can directly find the medicines in the corresponding location.

The second, "National List of Hazardous Chemicals", the specific document name is "Catalogue of Hazardous Chemicals", 2015 version.

The "Catalogue" clearly defines the definition and identification principles of hazardous chemicals.

The official definition is: highly toxic chemicals and other chemicals that are toxic, corrosive, explosive, flammable, and combustion-supporting, and are harmful to humans, facilities, and the environment.

In addition, the varieties of hazardous chemicals are determined from the following categories of hazards and hazard characteristics according to the national standards for classification and labeling of chemicals:  …

The content here is not short.

To sum up, it includes three major categories: physical hazards, health hazards, and environmental hazards. Each major category has several subcategories, and the division is very specific.

For example, "pressurized gas" in physical hazards includes compressed gas, liquefied gas, refrigerated liquefied gas, and dissolved gas;

"Self-reactive substances and mixtures", including types A, B, C, D, E, etc.  …

Each subclass also includes specific types of chemicals.

After a brief look, Xu Qiu dragged it to the end and found that there are 2828 types of hazardous chemicals in total.

Moreover, these 2828 are generic entries, and there are actually more types.

This made him sigh, this world is really dangerous, there are so many dangerous chemicals.

The third one, "Implementation Measures for Laboratory Relocation", is either a red-headed document or an ordinary email.

The contact information of the moving companies that cooperate with the Department of Materials is listed above, and the moving costs will be borne by the department.

After browsing the three documents, Xu Qiu began to plan. He divided the existing medicines in Zhangjiang into four categories.

The first category, high-value materials.

It is mainly a single material, and one gram of material costs thousands of pieces. Their mass and volume are very small, but their value is very high.

Therefore, this part must be transported in its entirety.

You don’t even need to bother with the moving company, and the group can pack it all at once and move it by yourself.

If you don’t want to take the school bus for safety reasons, you can also choose to take a taxi directly. From Zhangjiang to Jiangwan, the fare is estimated to be around 100, which is not expensive.

The second category, some unopened medicines.

It is mainly the solvent that was stored before. This part can be handed over to the moving company. It would be a waste to dispose of it directly as a waste product.

Commonly used organic solvents such as dichloromethane, petroleum ether, ethyl acetate, methanol, and acetone are generally prepared extra in the group.

Otherwise, halfway through the experiment, it would be embarrassing to suddenly find that the solvent is gone, and it may take a week to get it if you buy it, so you can only "borrow" it from other research groups.

For scientific researchers who don't like to communicate with strangers, "borrowing" things is a relatively big test.

However, most of the students in the research group are very talkative, after all, the materials in the group are not their own.

Before that, Xu Qiu went to Wanyousheng's research team to borrow deionized water, and the other party not only provided deionized water very politely, but also provided additional containers and bottles.

Later, let alone deionized water, I didn't even return the bottle.

Except for a few sayings like "borrowing a fire", which is really borrowing, most of the time in life, "borrowing" is actually a euphemism for "wanting".

For example, if you ask someone to borrow a piece of paper in the toilet, you can't return it and reuse it after that.

The third category, medicines that have been opened, purchased for less than a year, and the remaining quantity of medicines exceeds 50%, most of them choose to take them away.

The fourth category, medicines that have been opened and purchased for more than one year, or the remaining quantity of medicines is less than 50%, most of them choose to treat them as liquid waste and solid waste.

Drugs in the laboratory also have a shelf life.

For example, the newly purchased 500ml toluene solvent from Sinopharm may only use tens of milliliters for each reaction, and it is impossible to use up all of them at once.

Once opened and exposed to air, more or less impurities, including dust particles, water, etc., will be introduced into the original reagent bottle every time it is used.

This is also the reason why toluene or tetrahydrofuran solvent must be redistilled when casting Stille reaction.

In order to prevent the moisture in the air from entering the solvent in the laboratory, molecular sieves are sometimes chosen to be added to the solvent bottle.

Molecular sieve is a kind of artificially synthesized hydrated aluminosilicate or natural zeolite with the function of screening molecules. It has many pores with uniform pore size and neatly arranged holes in its structure. Molecular sieves with different pore sizes separate molecules of different sizes and shapes.

When water molecules encounter these pores with high specific surface area, they will combine with the inorganic salts on the pores and be adsorbed.

The price of molecular sieves is relatively cheap. When buying solvents from Bailingwei instrument manufacturers, you can choose to have molecular sieves with or without molecular sieves, and the prices are similar.

However, molecular sieve itself also contains impurities.

If it is the chlorobenzene solvent used in the preparation of devices by Handan Laboratory, it is directly stored in the glove box, and there is no need to worry about entering the water. Instead, the solvent without molecular sieves is deliberately selected.
