I Have a Research Support System

After spending another day, Xu Qiu integrated the prospect into the review plan, and the senior sister converted all the references into Wiley format and arranged them in order of citation.

After the completion, the two checked each other and corrected several text errors.

Since then, the final version of the draft plan has been officially released.

As for the author, the two tentatively decided to work together, with him at the front and senior sister at the back, Han Jiaying mixed up three works, and Wei Xingsi four wrote and linked to the newsletter.

Afterwards, they handed over the plan to Mr. Wei for review.

Teacher Wei only slightly changed a few words and format issues, then saved the file to his computer, and then asked:

From next semester, we will be working on non-fullerene systems. Where do you plan to start? Have you made any plans for future research?

Obviously, compared with a review article, he cares more about Xu Qiu's future scientific research results in experiments.

At his level, it is difficult to improve his status in the field of scientific research simply by stacking the number of articles.

Wei Xingsi pays more attention to masterpieces that can be sold, or highly cited articles, similar to the AM article posted by Xu Qiu, and the CM article posted by Wu Feifei.

Unless the review article can be published in the top journal of Chem. Rev., it is still not enough to read even if it is published in an ordinary journal.

We plan to... Xu Qiu repeated the thoughts he had discussed with his senior sister to Teacher Wei.

Then he introduced his next idea, which is the space in the review plan is too small to write, multiple PDI molecules...

As soon as he said it, Teacher Wei's eyes lit up, showing a very interested look: It sounds good, have you considered the difficulty of synthesis?

I have thought about it. The difficulty of synthesis is a bit high, and the final yield may be relatively low. However, this needs to be done in detail to know. Xu Qiu said.

Afterwards, the two discussed this idea for more than ten minutes. During this process, his idea improved a lot.

Xu Qiu reckoned that if it weren't for the upcoming holiday, Teacher Wei would definitely let him start the experiment immediately.

It seems that he has a deep obsession with the PDI series.

He also found that although Teacher Wei was no longer doing experiments on the front line, his theoretical foundation was still very solid. At least the two of them discussed without communication barriers.

There is no such situation where I say a proper term, you think for a long time, and finally ask what is the meaning of ortho position substitution.

Afterwards, Chen Wanqing made a report.

When Wei Xingsi learned that she planned to challenge the A-D-A series of small molecules alone, he shrank his neck back, and his eyes widened in surprise.

Later, when he heard that she has no specific idea for the experiment yet, he nodded his head, changed his expression, and made an expression of it is true.

Xu Qiu suppressed a smile in his heart. After getting acquainted with Mr. Wei, he found that he was a soft-tempered person who didn't have many twists and turns. He would say anything to his face or reflect on his expression.

The senior sister finished the report in a hurry. Teacher Wei didn't say much, but only mentioned one sentence: When you come back from the Chinese New Year holiday, show me the specific scientific research plan.

...

After reviewing the proposal, Xu Qiu didn't have time to rest, and went to help Han Jiaying revise the article.

She has two jobs in hand, the first is to write a relatively high-performance P3T system, the efficiency can reach more than 7%, and the target journal is JMCA.

Xu Qiu found that too many articles were submitted, and there were only a few journals that went back and forth. Most of them were old journals, and there were relatively few new journals.

In recent years, many new journals have been published, and perhaps academic journals will flourish in the future.

Although it was the first time for the junior to write an article, it took a lot less effort to correct it than for him to correct the essay for the senior.

No way, the skill of English is very important for those who do scientific research, especially when writing SCI papers.

In reality, there are even special editing companies for SCI papers. When the author's English expression ability is poor, he only needs to write out the general meaning, and then send it to a specialized company for editing.

Xu Qiu has not been involved in it, and the charging situation is not very clear. It may be hundreds or thousands of yuan per article. Now the language of SCI papers and the polishing of diagrams have formed a large industrial chain.

However, such situations are more common in medical-related research fields.

Maybe the research group doing medical research has enough funds, so it is not short of money?

In addition, it is worth mentioning that although the molecules of P3T and P5T are similar in structure to PCE11, that is, P4T.

But their difference lies in the number of thiophene units on the main chain, and it is generally believed that the modification of the main chain of the molecule is more novel than the modification of the side chain.

Therefore, in terms of novelty alone, her two jobs are higher than the job that Xu Qiu applied for AEM before.

However, due to the poor photoelectric performance and low efficiency of P3T and P5T materials, they can only be cast in the second zone, and it is almost impossible to hit the first zone.

Unless there are other highlights besides the efficiency of this work, such as a device with a large size and an area of ​​one square centimeter, which is prepared and tested in the air, the efficiency reaches 7%, and it can be compared to industrial production. There is still a slight possibility sex.

But to do this, based on the existing fullerene system, it may be much more difficult than simply breaking through 8% or 9% efficiency.

Therefore, few people can find another way.

...

Before the official holiday of the research group, similar to the summer vacation, Teacher Wei called all the students together for a group meeting.

He mainly asked the students about their plans for the winter vacation, whether they had bought a bus ticket, and reminded the students to pay attention to safety during the holidays.

Afterwards, he also mentioned Cheng Mingbo, who was a junior undergraduate who joined the group with Han Jiaying, saying that he was very dissatisfied with his performance and decided to officially expel him from the research group and asked Feifei Wu to be in charge of contacting Cheng Mingbo, tell him the news.

After talking about Cheng Mingbo, Teacher Wei praised Han Jiaying by the way, Not long after I joined the group, I will post an article, and there are two jobs left, keep working hard.

Wu Feifei looked depressed and asked her to inform Cheng Mingbo, which was like rubbing salt on her wound.

There is a trio of Xu Qiu, Chen Wanqing and Han Jiaying, but what about her?

She is also in charge of a general direction in the group, but she only has one and a half people fighting, and Tian Qing can barely be counted as half a perovskite person.

It was not easy to wait for a junior to come, but he paddled every day, and now he was expelled directly.

Sensing Wu Feifei's displeasure, Teacher Wei took the initiative to say, The next undergraduate or graduate student will give priority to recommending the field of perovskite, and I will definitely help her find a good helper.

Wu Feifei's complexion improved a bit.

After Wei Xingsi finished speaking, he signaled everyone to report on the recent progress of the experiment.

Wu Feifei first reported that she repeatedly hit a wall when making perovskite single crystals. She tried several times without success, and is now in an indefinite state of stranding.

However, her collaborative work with Tian Qing is about research on calcium chloride additives and analysis of the similarities and differences between the effects of ammonium chloride and calcium chloride additives on perovskite batteries from the perspective of charge transport mechanism. All studies have made preliminary progress.

Duan Yun's new work turned to the study of thermoelectric devices based on N2200.

The N2200 series can be used in the field of all-polymer organic photovoltaics. It is an n-type semiconductor and can also be used in the field of thermoelectricity.

In the field of thermoelectricity, the status of n-type semiconductors is much higher than that of p-types. Organic donor materials usually correspond to p-type semiconductors, and acceptor materials correspond to n-type semiconductors.

Therefore, after his work report was over, Duan Yun suggested that Xu Qiu and the others will develop a new acceptor material in the future, which can be given to him to try the thermoelectric properties of the material.

Xu Qiu naturally readily agreed.

...

The next day, clean the laboratory, close the laboratory, and officially enter the holiday.

When Xu Qiu returned to the dormitory, his two roommates had already gone home.

Tao Yan’s research group has a relatively early holiday, and the teacher’s management is relatively loose. Their graduate students have a two-week to one-month vacation, which is allocated by the students themselves. If they choose a two-week vacation, they can get an extra half month of research group subsidies. There are thousands of dollars.

However, most of the students still chose a one-month vacation, and Tao Yan was among them, and slipped back home early.

Before he left, he communicated with Xu Qiu. He had been in the group for half a year, and he had already figured out the general situation in the group. The research in the group was more applied, and the projects were mostly horizontal projects.

His plan is to learn more skills during his graduate studies, and after graduation, let his tutor find a company to push him over, or rely on his status as a fresh master student of Shanghai Comprehensive University to recruit him into a big factory like Warwick. Through the relationship at home, it is possible to find a friend's company to make the transition.

In short, many choices are very comfortable.

Ren Bin left school two days after the exam, that is, on January 20.

The graduation project will be done next semester, and he hasn't found a research group yet.

At present, 60% of the graduate students in the material department and those who go abroad account for 60%. These 60% have basically found the research group and started working on the project. The remaining 40%, and almost half of the more clever students, entered the group in advance. Occupying the pit can relieve the pressure of some seniors in the second semester of graduation.

On Mr. Wei's side, no senior undergraduate students came to contact him in advance this year to do the graduation project. The style evaluation is relatively strict. Generally speaking, those who have graduated from college are not very good at choosing this kind of teachers, and they all like the kind of research groups that can paddle.

However, Ren Bin was still not in a hurry. According to his words, The department will always arrange a tutor for him, and we will talk about it next semester.

That's right, the departments may be more anxious than the students for matters related to students' graduation.

If there is a situation where students fail to graduate smoothly due to problems with their graduation projects, this can be regarded as a serious teaching accident, and if it makes news again, the impact will be even worse.

Therefore, although there are some students who fail to pass the graduation project every year and affect the issuance of graduation certificates and degree certificates, the number is not many.

In this case, it is often that hard indicators such as the dissertation has not been checked, the number of words in the dissertation is not enough, and the hard indicators such as not participating in the defense are not up to standard.

The departments wanted to give them a hand, but they had no chance.
