Chapter 476: Master-Level Graduation Thesis

In the next two days, Zhou Rui spent most of his time on thesis experiments.

Fudan University's equipment is still very complete. Although the part involving large-scale engineering preparation cannot be actually tested and completed, the design ideas are not an obstacle for Zhou Rui.

[Engineering Master] + [Chemistry Master] + "By analogy (engineering)" + "Unification of knowledge and action" is a king bomb combination.

He even secretly opened a minute of master time and glanced at the fragments of the perovskite route in his previous life memory.

Although it didn't have much effect, after all, what real things can there be in the short video? It just let Zhou Rui determine the topic and direction. The actual work still depends on his own accumulation in this life.

The data of each group of experiments are all in Zhou Rui's plan, without any accidents, and the speed is extremely fast step by step.

For most people, experiments are time-consuming and laborious, but the subsequent analysis, summary, and explanation are the brain-burning time, but Zhou Rui is different. As long as the experimental data is successfully obtained, the rest of the content will only be smoother.

Then send it to Wu Huamin and ask him to change the format, and it will be almost done.

Although the main purpose is to solve his undergraduate graduation thesis, he will still submit this article, which took a lot of time and is very forward-looking and practical. Han Ziyin will be the only "second author" and Wu Huamin will be the corresponding author. Just treat it as a reward for changing the format.

Two days later, Zhou Rui completed all the content that needed to be done in the laboratory, kept the samples of the formed perovskite solar panels, and then spent another day to complete the text content. This article, which far exceeds the concept of "undergraduate graduation thesis", is basically finished.

The thing was sent to Wu Huamin, and he was left to worry about things such as font size, spacing, half-width and full-width.

By the way, this is a purely Chinese paper. Zhou Rui does not need to gain any reputation and qualifications in the international academic community. He only plans to submit it to the academic journal of Fudan University.

But how to say it, the school will naturally study what Zhou Rui wrote.

There are many people who are curious about Zhou Rui's graduation thesis.

Wu Huamin changed the format and just submitted it to the college. The first person to get it was Dean Zhao.

In the college office, Dean Zhao held a photocopy of the paper and read it line by line with reading glasses.

"Research on the Feasibility of Vapor Deposition of Perovskite Crystal Thin Film and Large-Scale Engineering Preparation"

According to international practice, the longer the name, the more watery the content, but it is different for Zhou Rui.

Dean Zhao read it carefully for more than three hours and couldn't calm down for a long time.

The whole paper is very dry, drier than the Taklimakan Desert. There are no long paragraphs of background introduction nonsense, nor too many quotations, which is completely different from the current mainstream practice of watering.

Even if it is pure Chinese, it requires a considerable degree of basic knowledge to understand it because the information density is too high.

Dean Zhao is old and a little dizzy after reading it for three hours, but he still forced himself to go online again to check the current achievements in related fields in the international academic community.

He closed his eyes and pondered for a long time, then called Zhou Rui.

"Xiao Zhou, are you busy?"

"No problem, go ahead."

Dean Zhao thought for a moment: "Well, I took a look at your graduation thesis."

Zhou Rui smiled and said: "Oh? What advice do you have?"

"Well, I may not be able to publish it."

"Huh?"

Zhou Rui frowned: "Why can't I publish it? Didn't you say that pure Chinese is also OK? I have to write in English to publish a school magazine?"

"It's not a matter of Chinese or English."

Dean Zhao thought to himself, do you want to see what you wrote?

The photoelectric effect of perovskite was discovered very early, but there are so many materials with photoelectric effect, and using it to make solar cells has always existed only in theory.

The current highest laboratory data has an efficiency of only 8%, and there is no large-scale manufacturing method.

Zhou Rui's finished product efficiency is 7%, not to mention compared with the previous perovskite route, even compared with the mainstream crystalline silicon route, it has opened up a gap of nearly double.

For large-scale manufacturing, the cost is only half of the crystalline silicon route.

Energy is an economical thing. The economic benefits are four times the difference. Although it is still not as concentrated, controllable and extensive as thermal power, it is already an explosive technological progress in the field of solar energy itself.

And perovskite is a very easy-to-obtain natural resource, and there are a lot of mineral reserves in China.

The most important thing is that this is not a paper of pure "theoretical discovery", but a set of preparation methods. Even if the large-scale manufacturing method is "designed" by Zhou Rui instead of "verified", it is complete and well-founded.

It makes Dean Zhao feel that I can make it.

The solar panels made by Zhou Rui's preparation method are not, to be precise, battery membranes, which are thin and bendable. Dean Zhao saw many traces of the "Four Elephant Materials" process from it, which is exactly the field Zhou Rui is most familiar with.

No wonder Zhou Rui chose such a topic.

Generally speaking, a new technology first solves the problem of whether it can be made, and then solves the problem of how to make it faster, better and cheaper.

But Zhou Rui's "engineering" is his strongest point. Coupled with the correlation between the vapor deposition method and the "Four Elephants Material" process, he has a "one-step to the stomach" feeling for the design and conception of large-scale preparation.

This is not sent into the mouth, but sent into the stomach, digestion and absorption of nutrients are done!

"Do you have a registered patent for these things?"

"Oh, you are talking about this. I asked people from the company to run it, but our school magazine only has one per month, so I will submit it for review first."

Zhou Rui is not a fool. He knows that "perovskite solar cells" have great commercial value.

However, he has no idea of ​​​​opening a new pit in the short term. He just asks people to register patents in various places to avoid plagiarism.

For ordinary scholars, registering patents globally is very expensive, and many achievements are spread because of this.

But to Zhou Rui it's just a small amount of money.

The general scope is similar to the patent network built by "Enlightened Intelligence". The coverage area is very large, but it is not broken down so finely.

It may be applied to drones in the future. As for the pure energy field, Zhou Rui has no plans for the time being.

Dean Zhao thought for a while: "My suggestion is to press this paper first. If large-scale engineering preparation is indeed feasible, the impact will be great. You are already too far ahead. It is impossible for anyone in the academic community to catch up in a short time." We are in no hurry to overtake you.”

Zhou Rui: "It's not impossible, but it's already the end of the year. What about my graduation?"

"How about you write another one?"

Zhou Rui: Do you want to listen to what you are saying?

This was a topic he carefully selected, and he spent more than a week on it!

He chose the latter between "total nitrogen anion salt" and "perovskite solar cells" because the latter is not so sensitive.

"Or this way, I will communicate with the school and your graduation thesis will not be made public, but the procedures can be approved for you first."

In principle, all graduation theses are compulsorily disclosed, which involves the issue of fairness in running the school, but it is not the first time that Zhou Rui's matter has been dealt with in a special way.

"That's okay, but the graduation thesis is graded. Remember to give me an 'excellent'?"

Dean Zhao: I can give you a "show"!

After hanging up the phone, Dean Zhao called the corresponding author Wu Huamin to have a discussion. It turned out that Wu Huamin didn't understand the content deeply, so he changed the format!

I didn’t even understand many things! After all, neither solar cells nor chemical engineering are areas he is familiar with.

How to be this instructor and corresponding author!

Wu Huamin was an innocent disaster. He thought it would be a good thing to help his boss change the format and become the corresponding author. However, for no apparent reason, he was labeled as "not good at academics" by the dean.

Dean Zhao looked around and felt that this thing was very important. After getting Zhou Rui's consent, he simply called a few students, put down the things at hand, and led the students to try to reproduce it themselves.
