Leveling Up My Cultivation in the Real World - Chapter 357: Atomic Level Precision

Chapter 357: Atomic Level Precision

“A photolithography machine?”

Chen Jue was slightly stunned when he heard the other party’s proposal. He recalled the time a few years ago when he was working and often surfed the Internet, and had arguments with netizens over such topics.

Since China started relatively late in the semiconductor field, many of its key technologies were blocked by foreign countries.

In particular, the lithography machine used to manufacture high-precision chips is one of the pain points that the Chinese people cannot avoid.

The photolithography machine is known as the jewel of the semiconductor industry. Although funds and talents have been concentrated on its development in recent years, the path of scientific and technological research and development cannot be achieved by simply spending money.

The tricks here are just like Chen Jue’s practice, which requires laying the foundation step by step and improving step by step.

Faced with this bottleneck technology, even the base does not have a better solution.

Although the “Ten Body Building Exercises” have been popularized to several brother units that develop semiconductor technology, which has greatly improved the research and development progress, there is still a long way to go if we want to truly catch up with foreign countries.

However, the development of photolithography technology will affect the storage capacity and computing speed of chips, and is related to the technological development of the entire country.

From logistics, manufacturing, aerospace industry, etc., chips are indispensable. Especially as the announcement time of the second home is getting closer, the demand for chips within the flower-growing family is increasing.

So, after seeing Chen Jue’s miraculous method of material interference, Zou Ying, who is also a technician, the first thing he could think of was that he hoped Chen Jue could “transform” into a high-precision lithography machine.

Even Zhong Deyuan and Liu Chengdong, two outsiders to this type of technology, pricked up their ears and held their breath.

They wanted to hear what kind of changes this young man who had repeatedly surprised (scared) them could bring to the lithography machine industry that gave them headaches.

“What level of precision do you want?”

“With my current means, I can only interfere with matter at the atomic level at best.”

“I can’t help you with the next level of atomic nuclei and electrons!” Chen Jue smiled slightly, reshaped the pistol he took back into black material, and integrated it into his underwear.

As for Zou Ying, who was good at technology, she reacted immediately after hearing what Chen Jue said. Her pretty face flushed, and even her breathing became heavier!

What is the concept of atomic-level precision?

This involves the precision range of 0.1 nanometers!

The most advanced photolithography machine on the market can only achieve a 2-nanometer chip manufacturing process.

Chen Jue’s opening words pushed the record forward by a full 20 times!

A 20-fold accuracy gap would require a huge amount of energy and R&D funding.

The most exaggerated thing is the time cost of R&D. According to Moore’s Law, the leap from 2 nanometers to 0.1 nanometers will take at least several decades due to the physical limitations involved.

But as soon as Chen Jue opened his mouth, he determined the precision to the atomic level.

His words are even enough to decide the life or death of an industry!

Because every breakthrough in precision values

represents a reshuffle of the entire semiconductor industry.

Take the computing performance of today’s mid-range mobile phones, for example; any one of them can surpass that of a personal computer from 10 years ago.

If flower growers can produce a 0.1-nanometer chip, many bigwigs of foreign semiconductor manufacturers, including the United States, will probably be awakened by this “nightmare” in their dreams at night.

…

Zou Ying, who had already been overwhelmed by joy, subconsciously grabbed Chen Jue’s hand and said, “I just want a photolithography machine that is the size of an atomic diameter!”

“Keep your word and never go back on your word!”

Seeing her big reaction, Chen Jue smiled and nodded in agreement: “It’s just a piece of cake! Just give me the manufacturing drawings and the corresponding manufacturing materials.”

“But before that, I want to take a look at those two ancient bronze artifacts.”

Seeing that Chen Jue agreed, Zhong Deyuan immediately winked at Liu Chengdong who was standing beside him: “Chengdong, go contact Director Lin of the Institute of Optoelectronics and ask him to send the drawings and materials over as soon as possible!”

“If we miss this opportunity, we will have to wait at least 50 years to achieve technological breakthroughs!”

…

As this matter concerned the lifeblood of the semiconductor industry, after Liu Chengdong received the order, he immediately took Zou Ying, who was knowledgeable about the matter, and ran away.

As for Zhong Deyuan, he took Chen Jue towards the base library and talked while walking.

Although the lithography machine has a great impact on ordinary people, it has triggered a series of sarcastic discussions among keyboard warriors since it was exposed on the Internet.

But without lithography machines, humans can still survive normally.

But the two ancient bronze artifacts stored in the base are different.

They received signals from outer space that were suspected to be from alien civilizations. If they were not handled properly, it would affect the possibility of human beings continuing to reproduce in the future!

Zhong Deyuan did not dare to be careless at all about these two fatal bronze artifacts.

Especially after seeing that Chen Jue’s personal ability had been improved again, he now regarded Chen Jue as a life-saving straw and told Chen Jue the situation in detail.

“At present, our technical means can only simulate the source of the signal, which is roughly emitted from a location 130 billion kilometers away from the earth.”

“It is still unclear whether it was sent by aliens,” Mr. Zhong explained solemnly.

Chen Jue remained silent and followed the other party to the cultural relics collection museum where the two ancient bronze artifacts were collected.

At this time, due to the inexplicable vibration of the ancient bronze artifact, several archaeological masters have gathered in the museum.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

At the same time, a professional technical team is conducting various tests on the two ancient bronze artifacts.

They plan to use existing technical means to analyze this special vibration frequency to see if they can translate any useful information from it.

Just like the previous solar flash, the coordinates of the solar system and the words “I am here” were transferred from it through Morse code.

“Xiao Zhong, is the alarm lifted?” One of the white-haired experts temporarily put down the magnifying glass in his hand when he saw Zhong Deyuan bringing people in.

“The alarm has been lifted temporarily. It was a misunderstanding. I’m sorry to have embarrassed you, Mr. Liu!” Zhong Deyuan nodded and solemnly introduced Chen Jue’s identity.

When these older archaeological masters heard that the reason they were transferred to this strange base was all thanks to the young man in front of them, they temporarily put down the work in their hands and turned their attention to Chen Jue.

These senior archaeological masters also wanted to hear what insights Chen Jue, the special candidate, could say.

Chen Jue was calm at this time. He greeted the old men one by one with a smile, and then set his eyes on the “cloud-patterned copper five-column device” that looked like a WIFI router.

The five copper pillars on top of the “Cloud Pattern Copper Five-Pillar Device” that looked like antennas were emitting a slight humming sound.

It is incredible that an ancient bronze artifact from the Western Zhou Dynasty can emit such vibrations without being connected to any external energy.

Even the technicians couldn’t understand the reason for the vibration resonance for a while.

“An ancient signal receiver?”

“Is this vibration frequency Morse code?”

“It doesn’t seem right again…” Chen Jue stared at the five antennas with his thoughts racing. In his sight, the five copper pillars that were originally rough and covered with rust began to enlarge in his mind.

Until some traces of paint were seen from the rusted parts.

“Mr. Liu, did this bronze artifact have color when it was unearthed?” Chen Jue suddenly asked.

At this time, the old man surnamed Liu was stunned when he heard this, then nodded and said, “That’s right! Most bronze artifacts before the Qin Dynasty were colored. This five-column artifact was produced in the Western Zhou Dynasty, and according to convention, it should also be colored.”

“However, the pigments on the surface of bronze ware are very easy to oxidize. The patina you see now is the sign of rust after the colored pigments peel off.”

“It’s a pity that when this five-column vessel was unearthed, color cameras were not available in our country for long, so no protective excavation was carried out and only its black-and-white image data was preserved. Fortunately, the archaeological predecessors in the past all had the habit of hand-drawing. Take a look at this map.”

As Mr. Liu spoke, he handed Chen Jue a colored painting of unearthed cultural relics from the last century.

It can be clearly seen from above that the five copper pillars of this cloud-patterned five-pillar vessel have five bright and distinct colors.

Chen Jue looked at the colors depicted on the map, and his eyes suddenly lit up: “It can receive special electromagnetic signals that are not in the known band. It is indeed the five-color rainbow light that constitutes the energy of the mind!”
