Chapter 967

Next big game

Can't you just say something?

It's not early outside the window.

Sitting in front of the desk in the study, facing a blank computer with a little headache, Lu Zhou stared at the flashing cursor for half a time, then suddenly shook his head in tears and laughter.

Without disclosing "business secrets" or even involving any specific academic details, publishing an article can release "Jinling Institute of higher learning has made a major breakthrough in lithium air batteries!" An academic paper on the news

The most important thing is that the more influential a journal is, the better

How can I write it casually???

After spending so many years in academic circles, Lu Zhou still thought that his eyes were more and more bright, his hands on the keyboard moved like the wind, and in an instant, he wrote a line of title in a blank text --

"Research on the transport effect of a kind of cage like carbon molecules on oxygen molecules in modified PDMS materials and the application prospect of this property in the field of lithium air batteries 》Looking at the title of the line, Lu Zhou couldn't help but praise himself.

"I'm a genius!"

The patent for the cage carbon molecule is ready-made. Although he later adjusted several big π bonds on the cage carbon molecule, he still hasn't let go of the relevant patents. As early as when he was teaching in Princeton, he had entrusted a professional patent agent to register.

The experimental results are all ready-made. This kind of paper, let alone he can write, can be written by any master student he chooses from his students.

It took about two or three hours for the paper to be written and typeset.

After the file is converted into PDF format, it is added to the email attachment. Looking at the column of the recipient's address, Lu Zhou's index finger lightly taps on the mouse holding it, thinking about where to put this manuscript.

《Nature》？

《Science》？

It doesn't seem right.

It's estimated that this kind of research results with some characteristics of fried rice and cold rice will take a long time to queue up. The most important thing is that he doubts whether this thing can achieve the expected sensational effect.

Thinking of this, Lu Zhouxin also made a decision.

Since it's written casually, it's better not to consider nature.

After a lot of thinking, Lu Zhou sent the prepared email to the email of the editorial department of JACS.

Although it is not as famous as the two top journals in the scientific community and the influencing factors are not so terrible, JACS has a great influence in the field of materials science and chemistry, which can be said to be one of the top journals in this field.

The paper "theoretical model of electrochemical interface structure" published by Lu Zhou, which won the Nobel Prize, was submitted to JACS.

Because he later reviewed several articles for the journal, his relationship with the journal was quite good, and he should arrange his papers as soon as possible.

After doing these things, Lu Zhou stretched out and pushed the chair to stand up, walked out of the study, took a bath and went to bed.

……

Just when the land boat was almost asleep, far away in North America on the other side of the earth, it was a clear day.

In the editorial department of JACS, there was a sudden scream like the discovery of a new continent.

“Jesus！ Kanov, guess what I got in my mailbox? It's Professor Lu's paper! "

Looking at the editor in chief of AGRIS who pushed away his chair and stood up, kanov had just muttered in his heart, "don't you let me guess?" and then he was immediately attracted by the latter half of his sentence.

"Wait, what are you talking about? Professor Lu's paper? He's back in the Materials world? "

"What is regression?" he said with a smile. "He is originally from the material field. Even if you forget who is the founder of computational materials and electrochemical interface theory model, don't forget the Nobel Prize of 18 years!"

In the history of JACS since its inception, many Nobel Prize achievements have been published, but for the editor in chief, the Nobel Prize of 18 years is the only one in his career, which has been reviewed and published by him!

This achievement alone is enough to make his name leave a small line in the annals of JACS, and this event is enough for him to blow for a lifetime.

A little intolerable of his editor's character, kanov whispered, "but he doesn't think so."

"It doesn't matter! What matters is what we think! Let's not talk nonsense, let me see what the amazing research results are. "I casually sent one of my colleagues to read the printed paper carefully, and then his eyes changed a little.

Looking at the unusual reaction on the editor's face, kanov hesitated and asked curiously."What does it say?"

"On the transport of oxygen molecules by a class of cage like carbon molecules in modified PDMS materials God, it's a lithium air battery! " Taking a deep breath, AGRIS quickly turned over the paper, "I seem to have heard before that the academic leader of the lithium air battery project of computing Materials Institute of Jinling Institute of higher learning is a Chinese named Yang Xu!"

Hearing Yang Xu's not unfamiliar name, kanov's expression gradually emerged a touch of emotion.

"The signature of this paper is Lu Zhou..."

"Yes," he swallowed excitedly, and the editor in chief, AGRIS, holding the manuscript in his right hand, gathered it unconsciously, "my dear Mr. kanov, what do you think it means? That means they may have succeeded! "

It's also a question and answer. This time, kanov was slightly shocked.

However, he was only stunned for a moment. He quickly reflected why the editor in chief of AGRIS made such a bold guess.

According to the experience of academic editors of these journals, the general proposition is relatively high, and it is still a hot scientific research project in the academic community. Even after the research team engaged in the project has achieved some results, they often do not immediately put forward the phased results obtained in the experiment.

And to step back, even under "performance pressure" to publish articles, is usually to selectively release some less important results, at least not to inspire competitors.

For example, Yang Xu hasn't published a paper in the past year, but if the research team he brought hasn't done anything in the past year, he won't believe it.

Now suddenly the paper is released

And it is still straight to the point, throwing out such a key achievement.

Then there is only one possibility to explain, that is, Jinling Institute of higher learning has obtained the patent for this technology, and even has completed the follow-up research!

Only this kind of explanation can make it clear why they can so easily throw out such a heavyweight paper

There is no problem in publishing.

What remains to be considered is who will review the manuscript.

There was quite a tacit understanding on this point. The chief editor of AGRIS and kanov exchanged their eyes and asked.

"Who is still doing this?"

After thinking for a while, kanov tried to propose: "Professor Jeff Dahn of Dalhousie University in Canada, the pioneer of industrial application of ternary material linixmnycozo2, has made a lot of achievements in the field of lithium battery. Science has published numerous articles I mean, maybe he can. "

After thinking for a while, the editor in chief of AGRIS shook his head: "I'm afraid it's a bit difficult. He seems to be working on an IBM project recently. He doesn't have to spare time. Moreover, we have to look for big bulls in the same field, but not potential competitors for contributors. "

"That's a little difficult."

After scratching his head for a while, kanov suddenly came up with a name in his mind, and his eyes lit up.

"I know a man! No one is more suitable to be the reviewer of this manuscript! "

The editor in chief of AGRIS looked at him at once and asked, "who?"

"Professor Stanley Whittingham of Binghamton University! His paper on the positive electrode of titanium sulfide is impressive, even though it has been separated from the scientific research work
