Road to science and technology

"Oh, it's not completely damaged yet, okay."

When Yue Yuanzhou appeared in front of the detector, he was surprised to find that some functions of the detector were not damaged, such as the camera, but of course the moving parts were lost.

Yue Yuanzhou didn't care that he was being photographed. He directly raised his hand and applied a strong electromagnetic field to the detector, ending its lingering life.

Under the control of powerful computing power, the detector shrouded in the electromagnetic field was immediately disassembled into parts. It is also a technological civilization, and technological creations all follow general laws.

Even though this civilization belongs to sulfur-based life, the technological creations they create are still steel chips.

Since this civilization was born on an anaerobic planet, it may be different from humans at the beginning, but at this stage, it is surprisingly the same.

The fuel used by this detector is also an aerospace lithium battery. The tires are also a kind of synthetic rubber. The solar panels, radar antennas, as well as the heat collector and calibration plate in the center of the detector are basically the same. The outer shell is made of high-strength carbon fiber. The board is the main one.

The difference is its camera composition. Different from ordinary cameras on the earth, the optical camera of this detector is actually divided into two types. The one in front of the detector is a traditional small hole imaging camera, and the other camera in the rear is a compound eye array photosensitive system, just like Dragonfly eyes work on the same principle.

Under the control of the force field, Yue Yuanzhou disassembled and classified the detectors one by one, and then reshaped them with powerful electromagnetic fields.

For some non-metallic materials with high antimagnetic elements, Yue Yuanzhou directly used the unified force field to break up and rearrange their structures for convenience.

A set of detectors launched by sulfur-based life to this planet was melted and reshaped by Yue Yuanzhou's bare hands.

As the disassembly and shaping progressed, Yue Yuanzhou was surprised to find that the chip used in this detector was not a silicon-based chip, but a carbon-based chip.

Using carbon nanotubes for conduction, the electron mobility of the transistor can reach a thousand times that of silicon transistors, and the electronic activities of carbon nanotubes are freer, so they are less likely to generate friction and heat. From this point, it can be seen that the ultimate movement speed of carbon transistors will be It is five to ten times that of silicon transistors and consumes about one-tenth that of free silicon transistors.

The computer technology of the Shenzhou civilization skipped directly from the era of silicon transistors to the era of carbon transistors, and entered a super science fiction era in which gravitational junctions and strong interaction forces are twisted into PN junctions.

When he noticed the carbon-based chip, he paid a little attention to the composition of the detector and found many carbon-based fiber structures.

At this time, Tomoko also sent information about the development process of this civilization chip to Yue Yuanzhou.

"Sure enough, any civilization is great! Different development processes will always have different emphases." Yue Yuanzhou said with emotion.

The first transistor this civilization actually made directly was a carbon-based transistor.

Yue Yuanzhou couldn't help feeling a little emotional about this. Most of the development of carbon-based civilizations is based on silicon-based chips. Unexpectedly, he encountered a sulfur-based life civilization here that was based on carbon-based chips.

This is not because nature manipulates people, nor does nature manipulate civilization, but scientific development is sometimes like this. Different races may have some advantages in different technologies.

For example, the Purple Fish Civilization is naturally capable of communicating with quantum signals. If they develop, they will definitely far surpass other races in this regard.

Thinking of this, Yue Yuanzhou suddenly had an idea, that is, to find the previously collected genetic samples of the purple fish civilization, as well as the metal civilization, including the Na'vi people of Pandora, the Triangular Body of the Supergod Universe, the Trisolaran people in captivity, etc. All suitable planets are cultivated and then allowed to develop freely.

I was observing the development of their civilization from the sidelines. It was not certain that there might be some unique technologies that appeared. Even if they did not, Yue Yuanzhou would have nothing to lose. He would just have to start over with destruction.

At this time, Yue Yuanzhou carefully looked at the dismantled detector of this sulfur-based life civilization. He felt that this sulfur-based civilization should not be let go, and at least a complete set of genetic samples and complete ecosystem genetic samples should be obtained.

Oh, and there is also the Zerg in this universe. It seems that the brainworm is already quite intelligent, so we might as well get one together. This Zerg swarm mode also has good value.

Once you encounter it, you can't miss it. As for the genetic samples or research of other types of civilizations, the Shenzhou civilization is not too much.

When it comes to collecting genetic samples, Yue Yuanzhou starts to think about the Taotie Civilization. If it were normal, he would just say a word and have these tools to do it.

"No wonder Karl wants to bring the Taotie civilization with him. Sometimes it's really convenient." Yue Yuan Zhouxin said.

He continued to squeeze the chip. Of course he had to make it. He had no magic, only unimaginable technology, so production was of course also a technological method. As for technological creations, even if more advanced civilizations come, they can only start from the most basic ones. It is impossible to create a set of equipment with a wave of the hand, unless he now has a Cybertron ray weapon in his hand.

Since this detector is based on a carbon-based chip, the chip made by Yue Yuanzhou is naturally also a carbon-based chip. So much so that the function of the chip to be manufactured is different from the usual ones. This chip has only one function, which is to serve as a port for connecting sophons.

As long as it is manufactured, the robot based on this chip can be controlled by the sophon itself and directly become a truly intelligent robot. And Tomoko, he has so many, all over his body including his clothes.

Different from silicon-based chips, silicon-based chips use processes such as photolithography or etching to carve out complex component structures on the silicon wafer. The figurative metaphor is carving a figure out of wood.

To make a carbon-based chip, you must first make a large number of high-purity and uniform-length carbon nanotubes, and then build these carbon nanotubes on the wafer. The metaphor is to use small building blocks to build a figure.

Carbon tube materials are doped to control the polarity and performance of the transistor. For carbon nanotubes, doping will lose the original advantages such as operating speed.

Therefore, there are two main methods of building this. One is to treat the wafer with a polymer, deposit the prepared carbon nanotubes onto the wafer, and then rinse the polymer with a solvent. What is left is a single nanotube, so that it can be made. transistor devices.

The second is a non-doping method for high-performance carbon nanotube CMOS components. This method directly abandons the doping step and instead adjusts the work function of the contact metal to achieve polarity control, such as making a P-type field. For effect transistors, platinum sheets are used as the contact metal, and to make N-type field effect transistors, aluminum is used as the contact metal.

As a master of science and technology from the Shenzhou civilization, Yue Yuanzhou could easily see that this sulfur-based civilization production method was the second one.

However, Yue Yuanzhou did not need to follow these steps step by step. He directly rearranged the molecules through extremely precise control of the force field.

But this time he discovered a problem.

"Huh?! This..." Yue Yuanzhou frowned, a little surprised.

Because he entered the parameters according to the normal parameters, after building the carbon nanotube, he verified again and found that the shape of the nanotube was not round.

"Could it be?" Yue Yuanzhou suddenly thought of the reason, because he had just come from the black hole over there.

So he began to detect the spatiotemporal parameters of this area. These basic functional equipment were upgraded with him, so he could naturally detect them.

Soon Sophon Neutron sent the message to him.

"It seems that due to the influence of the black hole, the curvature of space and time in this star field has changed somewhat."

Yue Yuanzhou casually looked at a few more data, and then he discovered that if the calculation here was still based on European geometry, then the area formula is no longer length times width, but must be multiplied by a constant. The same is true for the area of ​​a circle. The Pythagorean Theorem Too.

The sum of the squares of the two right-angled sides of the Pythagorean Theorem is no longer the square of the hypotenuse, but equal to 2.021 times the hypotenuse.

However, this had little impact on Yue Yuanzhou. He directly based on the observation of the curvature of space and time, and then used non-Euclidean geometry to calculate, he obtained the basic parameters of the technological equipment manufactured in this star field.

However, if equipment is manufactured with these parameters, problems will inevitably occur if it is placed in a universe with normal space-time curvature.

But as a super civilization, Yue Yuanzhou is not panic about this. He only needs to input fine-tuning instructions to the deformed metal.

However, encountering this kind of thing made Yue Yuanzhou become curious about the mathematics of this civilization.

As soon as he had the idea, Sophon translated the mathematics textbook of this civilization in front of Yue Yuanzhou. As expected, the Pythagorean theorem in the mathematics tutorial of this civilization is that the sum of the squares of the two right angle sides is equal to the 2.021th power of the hypotenuse.
