Chapter 361

Henry had Samuel sent to a secret base in Africa. There, he will receive the best treatment and training. He will be included in the "X-Files of gene umbrella" like the other 107 people. As for the real identity information, Henry will erase it as much as possible!

……

As time approaches, people seem to pay more attention to the announcement of the Nobel Prize than ever before.

Television and newspapers reported frequently, and Henry was the most popular winner on the Internet. However, high voice does not mean that you can win a prize. The winners of the Nobel Prize for literature often choose unknown writers.

On December 10, 1995, the Nobel Prize was finally announced. Henry was still too young after all. There was another winner. He is Seamus Heaney, an Irish poet, who has published many poetry collections. Because his poetry "has lyrical beauty and ethical depth, which sublimates the miracles and living past events in daily life", he won the Nobel Prize for literature.

Henry asked people to buy two books of his poems. After reading them for a while, he threw them aside, which was not his favorite style.

At this moment, the outside world felt sorry for Henry.

Netizens questioned the impartiality of the Nobel Prize judges. But in fact, the judging criteria of the Nobel Prize for literature are mostly related to the literariness, artistry and many works. Most of Henry's novels are best sellers, so they must be less literary. As a result, the chances of winning an award are extremely low.

Fortunately, Henry had been psychologically prepared and was not very disappointed. He even gave interviews to reporters. In the interview, Henry smiles to the camera: "I'm not disappointed. After all, I'm still young. I didn't succeed this time. I'll continue to work hard next time."

Netizen praises: "Henry Williams is so optimistic!"

"Henry Williams is our inspiration

“……”

In fact, there was no barefoot for king and no one was perfect. Henry was still a little unconvinced. Therefore, he will make a big move and win a Nobel Prize in physics next year! Henry decided to get graphene out, which shocked the whole technology industry.

Graphene is not only the thinnest material, but also the strongest material. Its fracture strength is 200 times higher than that of the best steel. It could be an alternative to silicon, making ultramicro transistors for future supercomputers. Replace silicon with graphene, the computer processor will run hundreds of times faster!

In addition, graphene is almost completely transparent, absorbing only 2.3% of the light. On the other hand, it's so dense that even the smallest gas atom (helium atom) can't penetrate (naturally, sperm can't penetrate... God gave us the technology to make graphene, and he used it to make condoms). These characteristics make it very suitable as a raw material for transparent electronic products, such as transparent touch screen, light-emitting panel and solar panel.

Graphene, as a new nano material with the thinnest, the highest strength and the strongest conductivity, is known as "black gold" and "the king of new materials". Scientists predict that graphene will "completely change the 21st century" and even set off a subversive new technology and new industrial revolution sweeping the world!

In the past, there were four most common methods for graphene production: mechanical exfoliation, oxidation-reduction, SiC epitaxy and CVD. It happens that Henry knows all four methods! Henry plans to produce a large amount of graphene directly in industry and take the lead in aerospace and new energy battery industry. Once the research and development of graphene super battery is successful, Henry dares to build a Tesla car for you, believe it or not!!!

However, the difficulty of manufacturing graphene is not small. Considering the current technology, Henry decided to use oxidation-reduction method.

The limitation of mechanical glass method is that the product is a mixture of graphene with different layers, so it is difficult to prepare single-layer graphene on a large scale, and the production efficiency is low.

SiC epitaxy requires a lot of equipment, but it can't meet the requirement at present. However, it is a way to produce high quality graphene.

CVD is the most possible method to produce high quality and large area graphene, but it also requires high technology.

The oxidation-reduction method is simple, high yield, but the quality of graphene is a little worse!

In the past, the most common method to produce graphene was oxidation-reduction method. At that time, chlorine based and manganese based oxidants were widely used in the oxidation-reduction process. The preparation time was more than ten hours, and toxic gases and heavy metal pollution were also produced. Manganese oxide and other intermediates were also prone to explosion.

Just before Henry's crossing, that is, in 2015, Chinese scientists discovered a new, cheap and non-toxic iron series oxidant. The oxidant molecules "run" very fast and can quickly penetrate into the graphite like a wedge, making the graphite layer quickly. In this process, oxygen will be generated to help "top" the layers of graphite, so that the preparation speed can be speeded up, which can be completed in only one hour, and even the product quality has been greatly improved!

Henry can use iron based oxidants to make graphene, which makes the technology of making graphene surpass nearly 20 years and rise to the level of 2015! Of course, the quality of graphene produced by this method is still not comparable to that produced by SiC epitaxy and CVD.

The plug-in can't go up in one step. In the final analysis, the technology is still gradual. It's amazing that Henry can drive the plug-in to this level, isn't it?

"I published the simplest way to make graphene by mechanical stripping and won a Nobel Prize. And the redox law is kept by himself, making a fortune... "Henry murmured, while holding a red wine glass." graphene is like a catfish. If you let it out, it will stimulate many industries and make it develop rapidly. At the same time, they also need more graphene research talents. What's more, have you ever been afraid of robbing talents with others? "（ Henry grinned: I've been to Lanxiang for further study

The preparation methods of graphene are basically available, but we still need to study how to do it. Henry only knows about it. He is a network engineer, not an expert on graphene.

On December 25th, Williams x laboratory set up the super materials company. Henry transferred many experts and professors from other companies. Then Henry gave them a lecture on the research direction of graphene and the oxidant.

All of them were stunned. When they reacted, they seemed to think that Henry's plan was really feasible. They called Henry a genius.

The establishment of the super material company has not attracted the attention of the outside world. Henry also doesn't want to announce his plan to the outside world. It's better to keep a low profile, which is the king. For a while, Henry was helping out at the super materials company. During this period, "Star Wars prequel 1" was released, which was really hot. The box office in the first week exceeded US $100 million, and the public praise burst. The major newspapers and media reported one after another. For a time, they were highly praised, and the score of Star Wars prequel 1 on IMDB website was as high as 9.

Industry insiders all know that "Star Wars prequel 1" is definitely a film with a high box office.

Henry only paid a little attention to this, and then continued to invest in the development of graphene.

The new factory is located in the northwest suburb of San Jose, with an area of 100000 square meters. For Henry, the super materials company is very important for the future development of space program. Henry decided to build an inflatable space station. This inflatable space station can greatly reduce the construction cost of the space station.

Henri is going to ask the super materials company to make a space capsule made of high-strength synthetic fiber, which will be folded into a two meter long tube when the rocket is launched. After docking with the space station, it will inflate and become a space capsule with a diameter of 3 meters, a length of 4 meters and a volume of about 16 cubic meters.

Henry also plans to build a larger 16 person living cabin with 2100 cubic meters of internal capacity. Even Henry wants to use this way to build a tourist city on the moon and even Mars! Of course, the premise for this is that the high-strength synthetic fiber is stronger than the metal shell of the capsule. At the same time, it can resist the impact of a variety of objects, including cosmic rays and space garbage.

Then, as the world's thinnest, strongest and toughest, graphene is the "king of new materials" whose density can't penetrate even the smallest gas atoms, and its fracture strength is 200 times higher than that of the best steel. If graphene is used as an inflatable space capsule, is it OK?
