Chapter 305 Let Me Prove It to You

Of course there is a blackboard.

Even if not, as long as he needs it, someone will drag it.

After hearing Lu Zhou's request, Lu Lao immediately ordered the secretary sitting next to him.

In less than two minutes, the meeting staff dragged a movable blackboard from the lecture hall next to the auditorium and placed it in front of the auditorium.

Walking to the blackboard, Lu Zhou picked up the chalk, and after contemplating for a while, he began to write on the blackboard.

Similar research, he has actually done when he was studying the topological transformation of the sphere at Princeton.

In particular, he has systematically analyzed the relationship between various electrochemical and mechanical properties and structures of hollow carbon spheres, and established mathematical models in a targeted manner.

Now it is just a selection of some results from the research that has been done to promote.

With Lu Zhou's mathematics level, this is not a difficult task.

The meeting seemed to have entered an intermission and became quiet.

Everyone was silent, watching him write down.

Professor Sun stared dumbfounded at Lu Zhou writing on the blackboard. He obviously didn't expect that this guy could really write with a pen.

In fact, if he had studied mathematics, or even had an understanding of the mathematics world, he would not have such a naive idea that Lu Zhou could not provide a proof.

After all, the person who stood in front of the blackboard and wrote on the blackboard once proved the twin prime number conjecture on the spot, and left a legend in Princeton.

In contrast, it is really not difficult to promote the theory that has been completed.

After writing down the last line of calculations, Lu Zhou stopped the chalk in his hand and looked back at the other professors in the conference room.

"According to my calculation results, hollow carbon nanospheres with a specific surface area in the [2326m2g-1, 3762m2g-1] range and a diameter in the [60nm-70nm] range can theoretically effectively slow down the diffusion of polysulfide compounds, thereby inhibiting the shuttle effect .”

"Of course, this is only theoretical feasibility. More specific product chemical formulas, molecular shapes, and more conclusions need to be verified in experiments, and here we only demonstrate the possibility."

"The basic situation is like this, is there any problem?"

this……

Must be gone.

The professors and scholars present stared at the calculation formulas on the blackboard with serious faces, but their hearts were bewildered. The engineers from the company were frantically taking notes, regardless of whether they were useful or not, they should be written down first.

Old Lu's eyes are bright, although he can't understand even more, but he has seen the dawn of new energy.

With a sigh in his heart, as expected, Lu Zhou put down the chalk in his hand.

At the MRS conference, no one could understand his mathematical proofs. A group of experts in lithium battery materials could only nod at his conclusions, and no one came out to ask questions.

Here, too.

...

In fact, when studying "Wreckage No. 1", Lu Zhou has been thinking about a problem.

Not about the technology itself, but what goes beyond the technology.

Objectively speaking, the birth of a technology must conform to certain objective laws.

Taking the zipper that can be seen everywhere as an example, human civilization invented clothes to cover the body, and in order to make clothes more convenient to wear, buttons were gradually invented in social production activities. Soon in the 19th century, the industrial revolution made a breakthrough in productivity and production technology, and then the zipper was born.

For the same reason, Lu Zhou believes that advanced civilizations who have mastered lithium-air battery technology definitely did not master this technology from the very beginning.

In the history of their civilization, there must have been something similar to pre-technology.

Taking all factors into consideration, the possibility of lithium-sulfur batteries is very high.

Although the carbon nanospheres in the anode material of Wreck No. 1 are not directly related to lithium-sulfur batteries, they are inspiring in a sense.

No technology can be achieved overnight. Similar hollow carbon sphere technologies must have been developed elsewhere before being applied to lithium-air batteries.

Considering the reminder of the system mission, Lu Zhou intuited that those hollow carbon spheres might become the key to solving the bottleneck of lithium-sulfur battery technology.

So, at the seminar, he expressed this immature point of view.

As for whether it can be convincing, it is not his business.

After the seminar ended, those present at the meeting left the venue one after another.

Professor Wang, who was still sitting in his seat, had a displeased expression on his face.

Although logically speaking, he has no reason to be unhappy, after all, he is engaged in carbon-sulfur composite materials, and hollow carbon spheres are also a type of carbon-sulfur composite materials, but Lu Zhou's attitude towards him made him very dissatisfied.

In his research team, the 23-year-old researcher only does the job of serving tea and water, and educates himself in turn?

Not only that, he thought Mr. Lu valued this young man too much.

Although scientific research is profound, it really has no skills. The method is nothing more than continuous experimentation, continuous trial and error, summing up experience from mistakes, and then building new theories with experience.

From this perspective, doing experiments is like gambling.

Many people have tried the idea of ​​adding surface polymer materials to the surface of lithium anodes. Moli company invested several hundred million dollars in it, and after bankruptcy, it was taken over by NEC, and then another several hundred million dollars was invested in it, but there is still no result.

You, a math guy, ran over, wrote a few lines of formulas and got an ambiguous result, and just did a few experiments to solve a project that would cost hundreds of millions or even more than a billion. You are so lucky. Bar?

In terms of psychological balance, Wang Haifeng must be unbalanced.

However, I have to admit that this line is such a reality.

Before that, computational materials science was just an unpopular thing. Most of them got their master's degree and finally went to the research direction of software development. However, after the paper published in "Nature" last year, many universities are now researching whether to use it or not. Add a functional analysis to the general course of the School of Chemistry, or put it in the elective.

Glancing at Lu Zhou's direction, Wang Haifeng finally couldn't help it, and complained to Academician Wu Shigang next to him.

"Do you think this kid is too crazy?"

Although there are differences in academic views, everyone is engaged in lithium-sulfur batteries, and the relationship between everyone is good in private. As for this Lu Zhou, he is a character who popped up suddenly. There was no such person in the domestic material science circle before.

However, academician Wu and Wang Haifeng have different views.

Scholars born as engineers are mostly pragmatic. In his point of view, age, status, and family status are all secondary. Although he has reservations about Lu Zhou's academic views, this view is only academic.

Moreover, he has always spoken straight, saying what he has to say.

This is as true in meetings as it is on weekdays.

Wu Shigang took a look at Wang Haifeng, and retorted: "He spends his own money on research, and you can still take care of others? Let's just do our own research."

After speaking, Mr. Wu packed up his things and left.

Wang Haifeng, who was choked up by Lu Zhou's words before, was choked up by his old friend's words again for his full of complaints. His blood pressure rose and his face turned red.

After a long while, he suppressed a murmur from his mouth.

"Why are you so proud? It's as big as two to five or eighty thousand."

After that, he picked up his thermos and walked away.
