Chapter 1834

"Mr. Hanks, this is the paper manuscript assigned to you and mailed in recent days!" the staff said and put a lot of thick manuscripts on the editor's desktop.

It is estimated that there are at least more than 20 papers.

"I see!" Hanks is used to such a number of papers. In fact, it is still small. At the peak, he has to be responsible for the review of more than 50 papers alone.

This is only his own work. There are 12 editors in charge of the preliminary review of manuscripts in the whole editorial department. Each person's 50 days adds up to 600 papers, and these papers are generally collected once every three days. In other words, in that month, advanced materials magazine received more than 6000 different papers.

As the world's top material journal, unless a special issue is published, advanced materials will only publish about 20-30 papers a month, which is equivalent to only one of 200 papers can be selected for publication.

Of course, this is the only treatment as the world's top material academic journal.

So now these more than 20 papers are very easy work.

However, these workload can never be underestimated, because this is 20 very professional academic papers, which have a large number of complex experimental records and theoretical explanations, which requires a lot of professional knowledge. If you want to read such a paper completely and understand the contents, you can't understand it in two or three days.

Fortunately, Hanks, as the editor of the preliminary review, does not need to fully understand these papers. All he has to do is eliminate the very absurd ones in these papers, and then let the rest enter the stage of the second review.

Generally speaking, more than 80% of the papers submitted can be eliminated in the preliminary review stage, and more than 60% of them can be directly thrown aside at a glance.

For example, a paper on a perpetual motion machine, a paper on water changing into oil, and so on. Anyway, it's impossible at a glance. It's completely imaginary. You can directly eliminate it by looking at only one name.

The rest, let's take a look at his basic demonstration process, and whether the format of the paper conforms to the professional format. All papers with a large number of irregularities can be eliminated.

These two steps can directly eliminate more than 90% of the submissions.

The remaining 10% needs to be read by hankstone to see whether the argument logic is normal, whether various experimental data are detailed, whether the experiment can know the supporting results, etc. after all these basic things are determined, we can enter the stage of second instance.

This is a basic procedure, but there are exceptions, that is, look at the name of the author of the paper. If the name is very loud, Hanks should read it carefully even if the title of the paper is too exaggerated. After all, with other people's identity and status, since he dares to publish such an article, he may really break the common sense of the whole chemistry and physics industry, Become the great existence of relativity.

Although such papers are too few, they may encounter only one or two in a hundred years.

Hanks's work today is relatively smooth. There are 24 papers in total. The first 23 papers are directly called back after just looking at them.

"It seems that these days can be spent easily!" Hanks just thought so, and then picked up the last paper, entitled "electric field effect in atomic thin films".

"It's a little interesting!" Hanks saw the title of the paper, which was absolutely inexplicable to others.

For editors of academic journals such as Hanks, the title of electric field effect in atomic films is very simple, and there is no sign of any major discovery at all.

However, such a plain title of the paper means that the content will be very solid and rigorous, and there is a great probability that it will pass the primary election, so Hanks looked at it seriously.

This is a simple paper on the electric field effect in a special state. The article discusses that the author of the paper forms an extremely thin atomic film by stripping graphite, and then has a new electric field effect.

Like the title of this article, the whole article is very simple, and the format of the article is also very rigorous. In addition to constantly using tape to obtain thinner graphite, which seems a little funny, the whole experimental process is also very detailed, without any problems.

Generally speaking, this is a qualified paper.

"The paper was ok, but it was thrown in the wrong place!" Hanks shook his head. He was going to kick out the paper, but after thinking about it, it seemed that it was inappropriate to eliminate all 24 papers today, so he picked them up and put them into the papers of the second instance.

Hanks took another look at the author's name, called Yapeng · Jia, whose nationality was Chinese.

Yes, that's right. This paper is about graphene published by boss Jia.

Some people may wonder that since it is a paper on graphene, why not directly write the name of graphene, such as a new material: Study on the properties of graphene, but an inexplicable electric field effect in atomic thin films.

First of all, this title is actually the original name of the title of the first paper on graphene in history.

Just think about it a little. When graphene was just discovered, it certainly didn't have the name graphene. At most, it was named a carbon allotrope. Only after the academic community widely accepted the new material will it be given a new name, otherwise it will only be given a complex academic name according to the rules of academic naming.

In fact, the first paper on graphene is not used to study graphene, but only uses the extremely thin material of graphene to study the effect of electric field.

Of course, boss Jia can also directly publish a large paper that studies the special material properties of graphene very thoroughly, with hundreds of thousands of words. But in that case, wouldn't he directly tell the truth and let the world focus on graphene in an instant?

This is not what boss Jia wants to see.

If you can, boss Jia wishes no one had found graphene for 100 years and let Daqian eat alone.

However, it was precisely because a steady stream of people discovered graphene that boss Jia decided to take the lead in seizing the right to discover this material. At the same time, we should see if we can interrupt the hand of fate, so that fate will not continue to find graphene with the help of others, which will make boss Jia and Ni Guangnan divine.
