I Have a Research Support System

It was Xu Qiu's turn to report, and he recounted Tuesday's defense PPT.

All the way down, I feel that it is not much different from the usual group meeting report.

Not bad. Teacher Wei made a brief comment, and then asked:

Then, what do you plan to do in terms of experiments, have you thought about the direction?

I'm going to finish the PBT4T system first, and finish the rest of the work. I should be able to sort out two or three articles.

Can there be two or three articles? Tell me about it? Teacher Wei suddenly became interested.

Xu Qiu eloquently said:

PBT4T, the original molecule, can publish an article; P2FBT4T series, four molecules with different side chains, can be compared with each other, and an article can be published.

However, the previously synthesized polymer materials have almost been consumed, and they need to go to Zhangjiang to synthesize another batch.

Moreover, these two tasks should be done faster, because there is a possibility that other research groups may take the lead.

In addition, the P2FBT4T-2OD material, proposed by Chen Wanqing, can study the dependence of its crystallization properties on temperature.

After he finished speaking, Chen Wanqing added:

It was during the previous characterization test that it was found that the light absorption spectrum of the material will change with the solution processing temperature.

It is preliminarily judged that it is caused by the different aggregation forms of polymers, which can be used for in-depth research.

However, I plan to do the three systems I synthesized before.

Because I followed Xu Qiu and did a whole set of characterization before, the experimental data is basically complete, and I just need to do repetitive experiments on devices and write articles.

Okay, just do as you say, Teacher Wei nodded in satisfaction and said:

Chen Wanqing, for your work, let Xu Qiu read the article after you finish writing it. If Xu Qiu wants to, you can go to Zhangjiang to do synthesis this week.

By the way, is the monomer raw material enough? If it's not enough, buy some more.

Enough, some time ago, I planned to do synthesis, so I went to the manufacturer to buy 500 mg of each of the main monomer raw materials. Xu Qiu said.

He thought that when he was doing the synthesis reaction before, he planned to ask Mr. Wei to apply for a microwave reactor.

However, at that time, the polymerization reaction time was planned to be 24 hours, but the current reaction time is only about 10 hours, which is acceptable.

Even if a microwave reactor is used, the reaction time can only be shortened to a few hours, and the subsequent Soxhlet extraction and post-processing time will not be reduced, and the optimal experimental conditions must be re-discovered.

Therefore, it seems that there is not much need for it now.

By the way, Han Jiaying wants to apply for a project, and she intends to take over the research of PBT2T, 3T, and 5T. Xu Qiu said.

Yeah, would it be difficult for her? Teacher Wei said:

Did she propose it? Or did you arrange it for her?

She chose it herself. At that time, I gave her two choices. The other one was to make a ternary blend system, or a ternary conjugated copolymer...

Xu Qiu was halfway through, Teacher Wei laughed and interrupted:

Okay, needless to say, it's Chen Wanqing's way.

You let Han Jiaying apply, and she will hand it over to you. I remember there is a project in the department in November, you can apply for it.

Okay. Xu Qiu said.

Wei Xingsi leaned back on the swivel chair with his body facing backwards, feeling in his heart:

If only his students were as relieved as Xu Qiu.

You don't need to worry about it, you can do experiments spontaneously and produce results.

People sit in the office and articles come from the sky. This is the dream of every tutor.

However, the reality is cruel.

The students he leads are all like Chen Wanqing and Duan Yun. If you don't keep an eye on them, you can't expect them to make achievements on their own.

Or someone like Tian Qing, although she has good grades and talent, but her family is rich and her ambition is not in scientific research.

In the entire laboratory, except for Xu Qiu, Wu Feifei was the only one who could fight. In more than two years, two tasks were completed, one review.

The newcomer, Cheng Mingbo, doesn't look very good, he just came here to play around.

Han Jiaying, you can focus on it.

...

At the end of the group meeting, Teacher Wei said:

Wu Feifei, after that, increase Xu Qiu's monthly labor subsidy to the standard of a master's student.

She was taken aback when she heard the news, but quickly came to her senses and replied, Okay.

For Xu Qiu, it was a bit sudden, but the increase in subsidy is a good thing after all, and it is probably the reason why he has performed well recently.

Everyone returned to office 216 next door.

Duan Yun took the lead in booing: Student, the salary has been raised, you have to express it.

Xu Qiu scanned around, and the others stared at him, apparently they were also very interested in Duan Yun's proposal.

And Han Jiaying, although she didn't know what happened, she also rushed out to join in the fun and said:

Brother, I want too.

That's all, let's treat the guests.

Considering that the lunch after the group meeting on Monday is usually a takeaway, and Mr. Wei will reimburse you, please treat everyone to a cup of milk tea.

Xu Qiu opened the takeaway software, searched for Yizhanzhan milk tea that he often drank, and chose a large cup of green tea latte, seven points sweet, iced, and coconut jelly.

Then he handed the phone to Chen Wanqing and said:

I invite everyone to drink milk tea. If you want to drink, you can order it yourself.

Today is another day of being overwhelmed.

But seeing the happy smiling faces of everyone, it is worth the money.

When I was a student, it was relatively easy to be satisfied. A cup of milk tea, a supper, a movie, or a board game can make me happy for a long time.

And the older you get, the greater the price you pay for the same level of happiness.

...

In the afternoon, because there was not enough time to go to Zhangjiang to participate in a wave of synthetic reactions, Xu Qiu stayed at the Handan campus.

There are still quite a lot of things to be done, and paddling is impossible.

There is a feeling that the more you work, the more you live.

When doing the P2FBT4T-2OD system before, experiments such as transmission electron microscopy and grazing incidence X-ray diffraction were also done simultaneously with other systems.

Experimental data can be used, but most of the data is raw data and requires further processing.

At the same time, some experiments, such as optical absorption spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry to measure the energy level structure, have not been done or have not been done completely.

Now, the thing to do is to check for omissions and fill in vacancies.

After thinking for a while, Xu Qiu decided to give priority to the PBT4T system, because the article written in this system can be submitted directly, and it does not conflict with the one he submitted before.

As for the other article, that is, the comparison of four different side chain molecules, you need to wait for the AM article to be accepted before submitting.

While doing experiments, processing experimental data, and teaching Han Jiaying.

Now except for the synthesis reaction, other characterization methods are almost learned by the school girls.

In terms of literature, I also began to look at it from a review.

From the perspective of proficiency, most of her various skills have reached the third or fourth level.

The school girl can be regarded as an official introduction, and passed the novice period smoothly.
