Spark

After putting down the phone, Chen Nian fell asleep and slept until 9 o'clock in the morning before the small class time before getting up from the bed.

He washed his face casually and walked towards the "classroom". Mo Zhongmin, the teacher in charge of the semiconductor silicon material class, was already waiting for him in the room.

"It's a little late today, didn't you sleep well last night?"

Mo Zhongmin asked kindly.

In fact, those who can teach Chen Nian are not necessarily the top industry talents in the Spark working group, but they must be good comrades with sufficient teaching ability. From the moment he knew the particularity of the student in front of him.

Therefore, even if the other party is just a freshman in the next semester, there will be no neglect.

What's more, this student named Chen Nian is extremely worry-free in teaching.

I work hard, have a smart mind, learn quickly, have ideas, and give myself some new inspiration from time to time.

In this way, it is natural to have a good attitude towards him.

"Yes, Professor Mo, yesterday I reviewed the crystal defects I learned before, and then previewed the new content. I didn't go to bed until after six o'clock in the morning."

"Why are you so late? There's no need. The most important thing in learning is rhythm. If you overdraw your energy like this, you won't be able to learn well."

Chen Nian smiled embarrassedly, and replied:

"Understood, Professor Mo—by the way, do you have any research on single crystal furnaces?"

"Single crystal furnace? It's not considered research. I have more or less contact with it. I understand the basic structure, but we have no chance to touch the design details of advanced models."

Mo Zhongmin looked at Chen Nian suspiciously, and continued to ask:

"What's the matter, do you want to do this? Do you want to design a single crystal furnace yourself, or do you just want to see what the equipment looks like?"

"I want to have a look, and I want to verify some of my ideas—it's about the design of a single crystal furnace."

"I was doing this last night. I went through all the basic knowledge in the book, and then based on the principle of single crystal growth, I roughly conceived some design points of a single crystal furnace."

"According to these points, some common crystal defects should be avoided, but I don't know if it can be realized in application."

Hearing Chen Nian's answer, Mo Zhongmin nodded, and said in an approving tone:

"Very good. Apply what you have learned. Once you have mastered the knowledge, you should first think about how to use it. This is a correct way of thinking."

"I originally wanted to mention this to you, but considering that you have only just started learning it for a short time, I didn't rush to say it."

"But you have the idea, fine."

"Don't think it is utilitarian. What we are doing is not purely theoretical research, but applied technology to be used in industrial production. It is the kingly way to quickly master and use it."

These few words of Mo Zhongmin can be said to come from the heart. As a researcher rushing to the front line, what he fears most is not that students will not learn, but that a student will fall into the vicious circle of theory.

If you only think about how to do scientific research every day, but ignore how to apply the results, then it is actually of little significance to this discipline.

Chen Nian on the opposite side nodded again and again, and replied:

"Professor Mo, don't worry, I must learn this for practical use, and I won't waste your hard work."

His learning is very purposeful. If he can't use it, or it's not easy to use, then why learn it?

"It's one thing not to waste your energy, but the most important thing is to learn something. But then again, it's a bit too urgent for you to think about these issues now."

"Your knowledge system is not complete, and you don't have equipment as a reference, let alone experimental conditions. Even if you try to think about it, it is actually difficult to come up with a good solution."

"Or, even if you figured it out, you don't know if it's right."

"At the end of the day, it becomes a game of pure chance."

"It's okay to use this method to relax and adjust your mind occasionally, but it's not necessary to do it all night."

"Come on, take it out and I'll take a look for you. Although I may not be able to tell if it's useful or not, if it's wrong, I'll definitely know it at a glance."

Hearing his words, Chen Nian's eyes suddenly lit up.

That's right, let him have a look, and the two of them will collide with each other, what if they come up with new ideas normally?

Wouldn't it be possible to lower the price again?

What's more, facing Mo Zhongmin, he doesn't have to worry about confidentiality issues. Those who can enter this classroom must go through strict review and routine investigation, and the possibility of leaking secrets is almost zero.

Thinking of this, he quickly said:

"Then wait for me for a while, I'll get it right away!"

As he said that, he ran back to his room without looking back, and within a few minutes, he retrieved the document he had written the night before.

Mo Zhongmin took the thick stack of draft paper, finally found the complete page of draft paper that Chen Nian sorted out, and began to ponder slowly.

"Well, using fluorine rubber for vacuum sealing is a very common practice. There is nothing to say, and it is definitely feasible. However, the main difficulty of this problem is how to balance airtightness and flexibility. It still needs to be well designed—eh? You wrote?"

"Oh, injection molding + cloth oil seal, yes, there are precedents in the industry, this idea is good."

"Temperature control, this is related to dislocation defects, double-tube flange structure + water-proof cooling? Double-flange structure"

Seeing this, Mo Zhongmin suddenly fell silent.

He turned to the simple design drawing of the double-flange structure that Chen Nian drew later, stared at the labels on the drawing for a while, and then looked back at Chen Nian's text description for a while.

After several minutes, he nodded solemnly.

"This is good, the idea is very good! If this design can be used, the problem of thermal field gradient can be solved to a large extent. The only thing that needs attention is the material of the water barrier. I can ask people from the Material Research Institute to take a look at this piece. .”

"It's really good, Chen Nian, it really made you think of something! Wait a moment, I'll continue to look back."

"Vacuum flow-through module designed for this"

Mo Zhongmin became more and more immersed in it, while Chen Nian sat aside and watched quietly. Except for answering some simple questions occasionally, the two basically had no communication.

After a full hour, Mo Zhongmin finally read the last idea.

At this time, the expression on his face had become extremely complicated.

There are shocks, surprises, emotions, and relief.

"You are... I don't even know how to describe it."

"In less than two months, I just started to learn silicon materials, and I was able to make this thing—although most of it requires knowledge in mechanical manufacturing, but depending on your proficiency in using it, the principles of silicon materials This area has also formed a good framework system.”

"No wonder the higher-ups asked me to be your teacher—why do I feel like I've delayed you?"

"You mustn't say that."

Chen Nian quickly waved his hand, Mo Zhongmin didn't bother him about this issue, but stood up and said:

"Let's not talk about these useless things now. I'm not professional in this area. I'll find you a professional person and let him see if it's okay."

As he spoke, he picked up the phone, and after thinking for a moment, he first called Chen Guo, explained the cause and effect and got the authorization, and then dialed another number.

When the phone was connected, Mo Zhongmin immediately said:

"Old Liu, I'm Mo Zhongmin."

"Are you in Chang'an? Come here now, isn't your group working on a single crystal furnace? There is some progress here, and I need you to take a look."

The man on the other end of the phone was quite enthusiastic at first, but after hearing the words "single crystal furnace", his tone changed immediately.

"No, Lao Mo, what are you doing?"

"You said that you are a material engineer and you are done studying your materials. You are really unprofessional in equipment."

"You still have progress, what progress can you make? Do you know how long we have been studying this thing? Everyone knows the principle, and the most difficult thing is the design details."

"You have been urging me since last year, don't I want to make it, the problem is that this thing is a process of trial and error, you have to give me time."

"Yes, I know you are in a hurry to use it, but the problem is that we have no place to buy this thing, and the technology is blocked from us by foreign patents. I can't help you solve the problem."

"Don't talk to me about those things that are useful or useless. Last time you said you had to find a way to solve the problem of the vacuum pump. You solved the ass. In the end, it wasn't our own solution."

"Okay, I'm going to the laboratory, don't mess around"

A series of reproaches made Mo Zhongmin roll his eyes. In the end, he couldn't bear it anymore, so he said:

"It's Chen Nian's achievement."

"It doesn't matter who the results are. Who can you have in your hands? Ah? Chen Nian?"

"I'll be there right away."

With a snap, the phone was hung up, Mo Zhongmin turned to look at Chen Nian, and said with some embarrassment:

"Liu Xiangnan is also in our working group, you should have seen him."

"He has a quick temper. I wanted to use a single crystal furnace in my previous institute. I urged him a few times to make progress, and he rushed to me."

"However, he is very professional. Otherwise, he would not be able to join the group. You can rest assured about this."

Chen Nian nodded to indicate that he didn't mind, Mo Zhongmin glanced at the time, and it was too late for class, so he simply sat with Chen Nian and waited for Liu Xiangnan.

In less than thirty minutes, Liu Xiangnan rushed to the classroom. He first greeted the two of them, and then picked up the document that was put aside and read it.

His speed was much faster than Mo Zhongmin, and he finished reading all the content in less than ten minutes.

Then, the way he looked at Chen Nian changed.

If he had only heard the legend about Chen Nian before, then this time, the legend happened to him.

"How did you design it?"

Liu Xiangnan asked.

"Eh, does it help?"

Chen Nian asked back.

"Useful! Very useful! Your thing is thick and broken, but the ideas inside are very good, and most of them are the key points we were looking for before."

"I have to go back to the institute now. If these designs are feasible, there is hope for our own single crystal furnace!"

With that said, Liu Xiangnan picked up the manuscript paper, got up and left, Mo Zhongmin stared at his vigorous and resolute back in dumbfounded, while Chen Nian opened the system interface silently.

In front of his eyes, lines of subtitles appeared impressively.

【Single crystal furnace for manufacturing high-quality single crystal silicon】

[Number of analysis source points: 0]

[Current number of source points: 1.92]

Fuck? ?

Chen Nian's eyes widened in surprise.

The problem of the single crystal furnace is solved like this?

Even, because of this momentary increase in knowledge, I got a bonus of 0.2 source points? ?

Looking at Liu Xiangnan's back, Chen Nian sighed silently:

You are the real boss.
