Chapter 489 Two-dimensional material, superconductor graphene!

When it comes to what is the strongest material in the universe, Linn cannot give an answer, because even the Federation's exploration of understanding the universe in its previous life can only be described as insignificant.

But judging from the scope of his understanding, neutrons are definitely one of them!

As the most critical part of the atomic nucleus, it cannot be destroyed by a nuclear explosion. You can imagine how hard it is!

The mass of an object composed only of dense neutrons is so exaggerated that it is unimaginable. For example, the celestial body neutron star that exists in the universe has a mass of more than 100 million tons per cubic centimeter. It is the densest known celestial body besides black holes.

Its terrifying mass can distort time and space, which means it also comes with an extremely powerful force field protection. Of course, this presupposes that you are not caught and torn apart by its gravity.

Even with the power of the legendary wizard, he was far from reaching this level. Lin En had no choice but to retreat and look for some more reliable solutions. After thinking for a moment, he quickly came up with an idea.

"071, call up information about graphene!" Lin En read silently in his heart.

Graphene is an extremely special single-layer carbon atomic surface material with excellent optical, electrical, and mechanical properties. It can be used in many high-precision instruments. It is also a special material that the Federation often needs to use when making star battleships.

Material.

The reason is that it is thin enough, hard and tough, with a theoretical Young's modulus of 1.0TPa and an inherent tensile strength of 130GPa, which is far better than other metal materials and its hardness is more than a hundred times that of steel.

It is also one of the few substances that can be called a two-dimensional material. Its thickness is only 0.335 nanometers, which is one 200,000th of a human hair, which is the thickness of one atom.

Of course, the two-dimensional here does not mean that graphene is a lower-dimensional creation.

The technology of the Federation has not reached such an advanced level. The so-called two-dimensional materials refer to materials in which electrons can only move freely on the nanometer scale in two dimensions, such as nano-films, superlattices, quantum wells, etc. of the same type...

Using two dimensions to describe it is just a relatively vivid metaphor, and the basic atom that makes it is very common carbon!

When talking about graphene, we have to mention something that is also a carbon element - diamond, that is, diamond!

The reason why this thing is so hard is due to the special cubic crystal structure inside. Each carbon atom in the diamond is tightly combined with the other four carbon atoms. It looks like a regular tetrahedron, and the covalent bond is strong.

Therefore, the hardness is also high, but it is also very fragile due to structural problems.

Therefore, federal scientific researchers proposed a hypothesis as early as the 20th century, which was to improve the performance of materials by changing and adjusting the atomic arrangement density and material structure.

And the creation that perfectly fits this theory is graphene!

Its internal arrangement of carbon atoms is a very tight and more perfect hexahedral honeycomb lattice structure, giving it extraordinary hardness and toughness, and it can even stretch like rubber.

According to the experimental data recorded within the brain, graphene with a thickness of only 100 nanometers can easily bear a weight of more than two tons without breaking. What if the thickness is increased to ten centimeters, which is 100 million nanometers?

Lin En didn't know, because even the energy reactive armor of star battleships did not use such 'thick' graphene. You must know that this thing was mass-produced, produced, and used at the end of the 21st century.

The cost of producing a kilogram of single-layer graphene is still an astronomical figure.

Fortunately, they are wizards and can freely control the elements themselves, so the cost of extracting and manufacturing graphene is greatly reduced. This is the convenience of magic...

After carefully writing down all the information, Lin En began to experiment. Under the surge of magic power, a large amount of carbon elements were produced, and under the control of powerful mental power, they were closely arranged and combined together.

Lin En imagined the shape of a honeycomb in his mind, but it was not easy to weave a perfect six-sided lattice structure out of elements at the atomic level.

After about dozens of failures, Linn finally managed to produce one unit of graphene.

Fortunately, after gaining experience, the speed became much faster. By the time midnight came, Linn had successfully created a full circle of graphene shields around him.

The magic power cost to make this thing was not a small amount, it consumed almost one-fifth of his magic power reserve.

Although the more complex the material deconstruction of mimicry becomes, the more intense its consumption will be, this is a bit too exaggerated...

They are just creations of carbon elements.

Lin En was a little strange, but he didn't spend too much energy on exploring Tu Zeng's magic power consumption. Instead, he studied the new protective magic developed by him.

The transmittance of graphene is very good, reaching more than 97%. With its atomic-level thickness, it is difficult to see it directly with the naked eye.

But it is especially clear through perception. Countless carbon atoms are arranged neatly like a honeycomb, stacked on top of each other in thousands of layers, and the thickness reaches about two thousand nanometers...

"It's such a perfect creation..." Linn couldn't help but sigh, and was also amazed by the exquisiteness of graphene's deconstruction.

Next, it’s time to try its protective capabilities.

Lin En stretched out his hand, and a sword with a length of several meters appeared in his hand, which was constantly flowing with magical fluorescence.

This is the high-frequency vibrating particle knife used to deal with Saint Cynthia!

"Cut!" Lin En showed no mercy and used his greatest strength to chop directly.

The particle knife, which vibrates hundreds of thousands of times per second, can achieve cutting at the atomic level. Its power is self-evident. This blow easily cut through the magical protection Cynthia had built around her body, and cut her arm with one sword.

Cut it down!

The powerful particle knife quickly collided with the six-sided lattice structure shield.

What is the concept of two thousand nanometers? It is only equivalent to two ten thousandths of a centimeter. It takes a while to find it even with a microscope. However, this graphene shield, which is 10,000 times thinner than paper, has withstood a powerful slash!

At the microscopic level, the thickness of graphene has only been shredded by about one-fifth.

"Very good!" Lin En nodded with great satisfaction, knowing that he didn't hold back at all just now.

Not to mention that this is not the strongest protective state of the graphene shield.

Because this thing has another important characteristic, that is, it conducts electricity!

Still one of the best conductors!

For example, one of the Federation's electromagnetic technologies uses graphene's efficient energy storage and conductive properties to form a powerful electromagnetic field on the surface of the star battleship to resist the invasion of cosmic rays.

Linn felt that if a thick enough graphene shield could be made, coupled with an electromagnetic barrier as a magnetic field protection, it should be able to reduce the power of a close-range nuclear explosion to a level that the legendary wizard could barely withstand.

However, his previous attempts at the legendary spell [Real Domain] had almost exhausted his mental power and magic power. Considering how to deal with emergencies, Linn did not continue to specialize in magic research and practice, but went straight back.

The city of fire oil.

Due to the approaching war, the entire city was filled with a tense atmosphere. The rumbling trains almost never stopped for a moment, continuously transporting materials and people from all over the kingdom to the city of kerosene.

Patrolling guards holding muskets could be seen everywhere on the street. Even Lin En was interrogated several times all the way to the conference room.

This is obviously because Cynthia's disguised invasion incident made the parliament alert, so the level of preparedness was suddenly increased several times.

Lin En did not assert his identity and ask for privileges, and completed the inspection very cooperatively, but in his heart he was thinking about preparations for the next war.

Now, in addition to how to conquer the Holy City and deal with the false god, the most important and thorny issue they face now is actually the management issue.

The entire empire is really too big. Although they have selected many grassroots managers in the kingdom through the office officer selection examination, it is still far from enough.

As for the progress of the war, Lin En is still very confident. After more than a year of preparations, the Parliament is no longer as short of people and materials as it was when it first came out of the Wizarding Land and captured the Royal Capital.

The number of newly trained musketeers alone has exceeded 70,000, and with the addition of part of the Kingdom's army, the manpower they can use has exceeded 150,000.

This is far from the limit that the kingdom can bear!

The introduction of mechanized planting on large farms and artificial starch technology has almost allowed the kingdom's citizens to get rid of the most basic food shortage problem. They may not be able to eat well, but at least they can eat enough.

There are countless civilians who have enthusiastically signed up to join the army. If they want, they can increase the number of the army to more than 300,000 at any time.

But what Lin En wants is a professional army that is well-trained and strictly observes military discipline, not a group of cannon fodder and bandits without military discipline.

After entering the conference room, Lin En immediately asked Vittorio, who was currently researching and transforming the magic circle, to ask about tritium, the storage of deuterium fuel, and most importantly, the next promotion ceremony.

When can it start soon?

"Probably in three days." Vittorio said thoughtfully.

Promoting a legendary wizard requires a lot of energy. The last time it took hundreds of wizards who were proficient in thunder spells to evaporate half a lake to get enough energy.

There is also the issue of magic power. All the magic stones reserves of the Parliament were used for the promotion of the two of them. In order to collect the magic stones for promotion as soon as possible, Vittorio used the idle magic stones of the Parliament as early as ten days ago.

The great wizards were all sent to dig in the magic stone mines.

For this reason, he also suffered a lot of criticism, and few great wizards were willing to do such easy and hard work.

But there is no other good way. The magic stone is very hard and has damaged several mining drills. Before improving the mining methods, the cutting magic of the great wizards should be more effective.

"By the way, I heard Aurora say that when you were promoted, you didn't have any additional fuel, but you made the nuclear fusion reactor operate again, and even burst out with more powerful energy?" Vittorio suddenly asked.

road.

"Yes, you can understand it as secondary nuclear fusion." Lin En explained the general principle as concisely as possible.

Vittorio suddenly felt his eyes light up, and hurriedly asked, "In this case, is it possible to carry out the third or even fourth nuclear fusion?"

What is produced by the fusion of tritium and deuterium is helium, and what is produced by the fusion of helium is carbon. Logically speaking, the carbon element ranks sixth in the periodic table, and it should be able to continue to fuse upward.

If they could do this, they wouldn't have to worry about refining heavy hydrogen from water. With just one fuel collection, they could be promoted to several legendary wizards.

"How can it be that easy?" Linn rolled his eyes.

You are lucky to be able to complete two nuclear fusions in the reactor. The requirements for carbon fusion are extremely demanding and only exist in the cores of heavier stars. Their strength alone cannot meet the conditions.

Under Linn's explanation, Vittorio had no choice but to give up this wonderful idea and instead led him to study the improvement of alchemical methods.

After being promoted to Legend, Tu Zeng's power gave Vittorio many new ideas. The spell models of [Skyfall] and [Endgame-Atomic Breath] that Linn gave him previously broadened his horizons.

.

These two legendary magics may not be able to be exerted through alchemy.

…

Three days passed in a blink of an eye. While Linn was practicing magic and Vittorio was discussing the magic transformation work, preparations for various wars were also proceeding in an orderly manner.

Every day at nine o'clock in the morning, fighter planes will take off on time to deliver leaflets to various cities in the empire, and cooperate with spies within the empire to carry out anti-theological science propaganda.

Thousands of armored vehicles equipped with machine guns have already entered the city of fire and oil, airships and fighter planes have been refueled, and more than 100,000 well-trained regular troops are ready to go, just waiting for the last moment to arrive.

The opportunity came soon. The promotions of Harrov and Aurora were smoother than Linn imagined. Both of them had been staying in the realm of the Sixth Ring Great Wizard for more than a hundred years, and their accumulation had already been enough.

Some inexplicable means were used to push the computing power beyond the limit of this realm.

Coupled with the experience provided by Lynn and Vittorio, the two promotions were a near miss.

Harrov, who finally stepped out of the fusion furnace, had no time to feel the power and beauty of crossing the levels of life, so he convened a new round of wizard meetings.

With the support of 153 members and nearly 90% of the vote, the Parliament soon officially announced the end of church rule and the war to disintegrate the empire officially started today!

At the same time, a piece of news also spread from the empire. The hundreds of thousands of legions gathered by the church at the border launched an attack at the same time.

"Very good, very good, they actually dare to attack head on!" Harrov was quite surprised.

But this time there was no need to defend the city, and they were not afraid even if the false god personally led the army.

"Then go to the Holy City and defeat them all!" Lin En said decisively.
