Scholar's Cultivation System Panel

After Pan Xiaozhi learned about the new research direction in detail from Xu Yun, and after confirming that he was very confident, he couldn't contain his excitement and excitement, and pretended to go out and tell other researchers in the project team the good news.

"This is really happy news. I will make arrangements to start a new round of experiments today."

He said this with a smile on his face, and without waiting for Xu Yun's response, he turned around and walked towards the door without wasting any time.

If the normal process is followed, the test data of the new quantum material sample developed this time does not meet the standards, which basically declares that the direction of their research is wrong.

Next, new research directions must be determined before the experiment can continue.

There will definitely be a lot of time spent in the middle.

What's more, the research direction chosen this time was decided by Xu Yun.

The result was unexpected. Xu Yun seemed to have guessed that the material sample would fail the test, and actually prepared a replacement plan in advance, so that he could continue the experiment without stopping.

Among them, Xu Yun said that he was very confident about the new plan, which made him extremely happy.

Xu Yun undoubtedly trusts him absolutely. The first experiment of new quantum materials was carried out with the mentality of giving it a try. It is normal for the synthesized material samples to fail to meet the standards. But now with Xu Yun's guarantee, I believe the situation will be better. Completely different. To put it bluntly, it’s basically a done deal.

That's why he was so excited and eager to inform the rest of the project team of the news so that he could start the experiment as soon as possible.

After all, when new quantum materials are successfully developed, the computing power upgrade of Zu Chongzhi-3 quantum computer and the deployment of quantum communication can be put on the agenda.

Looking at Pan Xiaozhi's figure quickly disappearing from sight, Xu Yun did not stop him.

From the current point of view, the advent of new quantum materials will definitely come sooner rather than later, and we must buy time for the aerospace engineering side.

soon.

Pan Xiaozhi announced the good news to the project team members.

Suddenly they looked at each other.

Before everyone had time to grieve over the news that the material sample data failed to pass the test, they were told that a new material research direction had been determined.

It's just seamless.

This kind of speed and efficiency is probably impossible to achieve in any scientific research institution.

After everyone came to their senses in this situation, they had no choice but to quickly adjust their status and start busy according to their previous work arrangements.

…

Quantum information technology refers to a new information technology based on quantum mechanics that encodes, calculates and transmits the physical information contained in quantum systems. Cooperating with quantum computers, it can bring a more efficient and safer communication lifestyle to mankind.

The efficiency of communication between quantum systems depends on their ability to interact with light.

Based on this, quantum materials must be able to fully utilize the quantum properties of light.

The previously synthesized material samples failed to meet the requirements precisely because of their interaction with light, and could only be blamed as failures.

After the optimization direction suggestions of the scientific simulator, the element in the material is a molecular crystal based on rare earth europium ions. Its ultra-narrow linewidth emission can achieve efficient interaction with light.

In addition, Xu Yun also found other surprises after reading the detailed suggestions.

That is, this molecular crystal can achieve quantum entanglement through stray electric field coupling, thereby completing quantum information processing, and because the molecular crystal contains multiple rare earth ions, it can achieve a relatively high qubit density. It is expected to significantly increase the number of qubits when used in quantum computers.

It is perfect for current research in the quantum field.

It is worth mentioning that the project team members did not have time to become familiar with the new research direction, so the synthesis of samples was a little slow.

Fortunately, with Xu Yun's overall command and leadership, the research work was carried out in an orderly manner.

It’s December in the blink of an eye.

During this period, the Aerospace Science and Technology Group relied on its strong strength to successfully create the first new generation lunar rover based on Xu Yun's design drawings.

After various rigorous tests in the simulation environment, it was once again proven that Xu Yun's new solution is powerful and its superior performance is far ahead of Zhang Feng's lunar rover.

If I use two words to describe it.

That's crushing.

Or an all-round crushing.

With the real data in front of him, Zhang Feng was once again grateful that he made the right choice and decisively scrapped his lunar rover plan. It also gave others in the system confidence in the new manned lunar landing execution plan.

Afterwards, personnel were mobilized to form a new research team to perfect and conquer the modular lunar base.

At the same time, construction of new lunar rovers continues.

Since the Manned Space Engineering Office has not looked for Xu Yun again, Xu Yun has been able to devote himself wholeheartedly to the research and development of molecular crystal materials for rare earth europium ions.

December 31, 2025.

Wednesday.

Quantum Information Science Institute Laboratory.

Today is an extremely exciting day for the members of the new quantum materials project team.

Of course it’s not because New Year’s Day is tomorrow.

But after more than a month of hard research, under the leadership of Xu Yun, they finally synthesized rare earth ions and molecular crystals and obtained samples that could be tested. If today's test results meet expectations, it will represent a major step forward in the field of quantum information computing.

"We hope that the test results will exceed our expected values, so that we can also have a relaxing New Year's Day holiday."

"You don't have confidence in yourself, don't you have confidence in Xu Yuan?" In the laboratory, Pan Xiaozhi heard the members of the project team beside him speak, and immediately responded with a smile.

His words all revealed his trust in Xu Yun.

As this sentence reached everyone's ears, the researcher who spoke was a little embarrassed and quickly added: "Of course I believe in Xu Yuan. The progress these days has been made by everyone for all to see."

Seeing that the chat box was opened, other people around him also joined in.

"The rare earth ions we chose this time have high interactivity with light. Perhaps its performance can really surprise us."

"I believe in Xu Yuan."

"Even if the final test data does not reach the expected value, it will definitely be much stronger than last time."

"The progress of our research is already a miracle in the academic world. As long as the numerical values ​​are improved every time, we will definitely develop new quantum materials."

At this time, Xu Yun listened to everyone's voices, but his face remained calm.

Relying on the three optimization suggestions brought by the scientific simulator, he believes that this material will definitely meet the requirements and achieve the coverage of quantum communication networks and the upgrade of quantum computer computing power.

His thoughts stayed here, and he temporarily stopped his movements, turned around, looked at everyone's faces, and said in a deep voice: "I am quite confident in your research this time, and it should allow everyone to have a comfortable New Year's Day holiday. "When he finished speaking, the corners of his mouth raised slightly and a smile appeared.

And this also made everyone present happy.

According to past experience, Xu Yun has never miscalculated what he promised.

Since I can spend the New Year's Day holiday comfortably, there must be no problem.

After all, today is a time when everyone is waiting for a holiday. If the final test result is not satisfactory, I'm afraid I won't be in the mood to spend the holiday.

Maybe he would have to stay in the hospital and work overtime to look for problems.

After Xu Yun said this, he said nothing more and walked to the laser control system equipment, preparing to test the material samples and analyze the specific performance data.

Rare earth ions have excellent optical and spin properties, but are difficult to integrate into photonic devices. Molecular crystals are easier to integrate, but it is difficult to establish a reliable connection between spin and light because the emission band is too broad. The two are cleverly combined Together, specific experiments can be performed through laser excitation to obtain corresponding data.

Material samples were originally tested using specific laser experiments that could be performed by any researcher present.

Xu Yun does not need to do it himself.

However, because of his emphasis on new quantum materials, Xu Yun decided to conduct the test himself this time to grasp the numerical values ​​of the materials immediately.

Soon after the laser was successfully excited from the device, the rare earth europium ions in the material sample emitted photons carrying nuclear spin information, which were captured and analyzed by special instruments.

Pan Xiaozhi and other project team members who stayed outside during this period also watched this scene with concentration.

It can be said that I feel more and more nervous.

Everyone knows that the most critical step has now been reached. Whether the efforts of more than a month have been in vain depends entirely on the final test results.

Fortunately, there are no people from other scientific research institutions here at the moment, otherwise they might really be pissed off by the performance of Pan Xiaozhi and others. After all, in the eyes of others, this is too Versailles.

Just the second experiment is expected to be successful, which leaves other researchers how to deal with themselves.

Looking at the global scientific community, whether it is the research and development of a technology or the birth of a certain material, it has experienced a large number of failures. It can be said that experiments failed again and again and research was invested again and again.

People like Pan Xiaozhi and others do not want to fail in their second experiment. It is simply something they dare not even think about.

But there is no way to do it. Xu Yun's talent in the field of scientific research is too abnormal. Most of the time, the experiment is successful.

As members of Xu Yun's project team, if the second experiment did not yield results, wouldn't it prove that their skills were too poor and successfully hindered Xu Yun's success.

This is definitely something that a scientific researcher is not willing to accept.

Even if this is indeed the case.

Fortunately, the final test results of the material samples did not disappoint everyone's expectations.

I don't know how much time passed, but as the laser device stopped operating, the computer began to analyze the data and print it out directly.

Xu Yun, who was waiting for this test report, would definitely not hesitate at this time. Almost as soon as the report was printed, he picked it up and looked at it carefully. When the above data came into his eyes, it took him about half a minute to slow down. Putting down his arms, everyone saw Zhang's relieved smile.

"It seems that everyone can enjoy the holiday in peace tomorrow."

Saying this softly, excitement suddenly appeared on the faces of everyone present.

Pan Xiaozhi was the first to take the report from Xu Yun and carefully looked at the values ​​​​on it.

"It's done."

"We are done."

"The values ​​far exceeded expectations."

Three excited and happy shouts came out in the next second, accurately expressing his inner feelings at the moment.

After saying that, he seemed to have remembered something, and quickly handed the data report in his hand to the other project team members beside him: "You all should take a look at it too."

It can be said that after getting the data report from Xu Yun, other people's eyes have not left. At this moment, they could not be reserved after hearing Pan Xiaozhi's words. They immediately took the report and gathered around to look at it.

Then there were constant sounds of surprise.

"The data results show that the interaction between our materials and light is very efficient, even exceeding expectations."

"This is definitely the strongest new quantum material, and we succeeded."

"I knew that Academician Xu had already made up his mind, and now it turns out that this is indeed the case."

"This will be a new milestone in the development of the quantum field!"

"With this kind of super-powerful quantum material, improving the qubits of the Zu Chongzhi-3 quantum computer should no longer be a problem."

After a while, the joy on everyone's faces still did not disappear.

For the first time, they experienced the benefits of participating in project research with Xu Yun. This sense of accomplishment and pride was enough to keep them in a state of joy for a long time.

"Everyone has worked hard during this period. Since we have achieved major milestones now, let's go back and rest early today. I hope everyone can have a good New Year's Day holiday tomorrow." Xu Yun said to everyone with a smile on his lips, Finally, he reminded: "As for the follow-up work arrangements, we will wait until the holiday is over."

Now that the problem of new quantum materials has been successfully solved, the next step is to increase the amount of this material synthesized and use it to upgrade the Zu Chongzhi-3 quantum computer, manufacture quantum repeaters, and try to deploy quantum information networks.

These things are basically not too difficult anymore and can be done even if he is not around.

In addition, he has promised his daughter that he will definitely return to Jingzhou City during the New Year's Day holiday. There is really no need to wait for this time.

Others were naturally very happy after hearing Xu Yun's words, but they were looking forward to the follow-up work, even if some people expressed their opinions.

"We all want to continue to follow you, Dean Xu. The rest of the work will be completed on time."

"We have now overcome such a big problem, and I believe there will be no problem with the subsequent task arrangements."

"I don't even want to take a vacation, so I just jumped into the follow-up work."

"I couldn't even imagine such a fast research speed before. This time I would like to thank Dean Xu for allowing me to experience it."

"Don't worry, there will definitely be opportunities in the future. Hurry up and pack your things and go home later." Pan Xiaozhi couldn't help but added after hearing everyone's words, feeling a little impatient.

In the following time, everyone stopped delaying and immediately started the daily get off work process.

Wait until the holidays are over before starting a new job.

However, it is worth mentioning that Pan Xiaozhi stayed temporarily, walked up to Xu Yun and took the initiative to mention another matter.

"correct."

"Should we tell the Manned Space Engineering Office that we have conquered new quantum materials?"

"They should still be worried about quantum communication between the earth and the moon."

What Pan Xiaozhi is talking about is naturally the cooperation with Zhou Mingwei and Zhang Feng. He needs to help them establish a quantum information network between the earth and the moon to lay the foundation for the implementation of the new plan for manned moon landing.

Xu Yun understood the meaning of Pan Xiaozhi's words, but after thinking for a moment he shook his head.

"It's better to wait."

"Right now, we have only completed the first phase of progress. We will wait until we successfully solve the quantum relay and have the ability to deploy a quantum information network between the earth and the moon."

"There are still many problems waiting for us to overcome."

The successful development of new quantum materials is only a basic achievement and has not yet completely solved the problem of long-distance quantum information technology.

Rather than letting Zhou Mingwei and the others know the news now, it would be better to wait until quantum information is conquered.

Maintaining the status quo in this way can also put some pressure on them to ensure the completion of aerospace equipment such as the Long March 10 manned launch vehicle and lunar lander.

The manned moon landing project cannot be carried out without any of these links.

After hearing all Xu Yun's words, Pan Xiaozhi thought about it briefly and felt that it made sense, so he didn't have any objections.

"fair enough."

"I'll give them a bigger surprise then."

He responded with a few sentences following Xu Yun's words, and then stopped lingering too much.

After Xu Yun compiled the information and properly placed the material samples, he left the laboratory with others and was escorted by a special car to the airport to take the nearest flight back to Jingzhou City.

It should be noted that the Institute of Quantum Information and Quantum Technology’s breakthrough in quantum materials has not been announced to the public. In addition, there is no idea of ​​publishing a paper in the journal Nature for the time being. All energy is focused on quantum computers and quantum computers. When it comes to quantum information, I have no intention of doing anything else.

But what is absolutely certain is that if this result is announced, it will definitely cause a global sensation.

After all, this material represents a concentrated breakthrough in related technologies in the quantum field, and the value it brings is immeasurable.

It can help human civilization accelerate the development of science.

A truly milestone achievement.

When Xu Yun returned home that night, facing his mother, wife, and children, his identity immediately changed from a respected academician of the two academies to a father of two children.

I will never bring back what happened in the courtyard.

Chen Shihe would not ask under normal circumstances, thus ensuring the happiness and harmony of the family.

The New Year's Day holiday passed quickly, and the project team members couldn't wait to return to work, waiting for Xu Yun to assign new tasks to them.

Faced with the high-spirited project team members, Xu Yun naturally would not dampen everyone's enthusiasm. He immediately arranged for Pan Xiaozhi to take charge of the upgrade of the Zu Chongzhi No. 3 quantum computer. He was responsible for the research on quantum information technology and quantum repeaters. As for the remaining Some people continue to synthesize the required materials.

Relying on the power of new quantum materials, Xu Yun does not find quantum information technology and quantum repeaters to be very difficult. He often guides his researchers in their work.

Not even the thought of turning on brain overclocking.

Entering the new year, when quantum computers and quantum information technology were progressing smoothly, Xu Yun finally received news from Zhou Mingwei. (End of chapter)
