Chapter 309

The scientists are working on the research objectives of this project on a specially made test bench with a scanning probe microscope on it.

This is a kind of micromechanical arm with nanoscale precision. That is to say, even if the manipulator is a huge machine, it can be called "nanomanipulator" as long as its end effector can complete the task of nanomanipulation.

Scanning probe microscope (SPM) is a kind of nanomechanical arm, and it can be divided into three types: scanning tunneling microscope, atomic force microscope and scanning near-field optical microscope.

One of the most famous application cases is that in 1990, IBM scientists first used the scanning probe microscope to gradually move 35 xenon atoms adsorbed on the nickel surface, and arranged them into the word "IBM". This atomic moving technology has laid a historical foundation for the production and manufacture of nanorobots.

At this time, the scanning near-field optical microscope is used. Because the nano manipulator has already had a foundation in reality. Although the price is expensive and requires extremely high precision technology, the honeycomb itself is extremely advanced in the field of nanotechnology. It is not difficult to order this kind of manipulator. Moreover, the finished product in front of us is much more advanced than the most advanced nano manipulator in the world. The nano robot dealing with the day when the earth stops rotating is completely absent Now.

Seeing that the scientists were still immersed in their research, Zhang Heng went directly to Louis, who was conducting the research. At this time, Lewis also saw Zhang Heng, and quickly extended his hand to meet him. After shaking hands with Zhang Heng, he immediately concerned, "Mr. Zhang, are you ok?"

"Don't worry, since I have the ability to bring back nanorobots, it means that these things can't hurt me." Zhang Heng nodded. No matter where he was, the more capable people would be respected. At this time, Lewis was no less important than Yan ronghua, Luo Jincheng and other top scientists. Moreover, Lewis was in a period of rapid accumulation, and his future achievements might still be ahead of the four top scientists. Zhang Heng was also kind to this person and would not set up a boss at all On the shelf.

"That's good. Actually I'm really surprised." Louis said excitedly, "you know what? We have just dismantled more than 100 robots, but we found that the internal structure of this kind of robot is extremely complex, even more complex than the T-800, which almost subverts our understanding of nanorobots! "

"In our understanding, because nanorobots are extremely small, there should be no too complex structure. Because the more complex the structure is, the higher the cost of manufacturing. Moreover, nanorobots often need tens of thousands of thousands or more to complete a task. This kind of workload and capital cost is almost impossible for us It's a matter of

"However, after a general analysis of the functions of the nanorobot components you brought back, we found that the other party had the ability to self replicate. We realized that for the creators of this kind of nanorobot, they only need to make one nano robot, and the rest will consume more and more materials The same nano robot will be copied soon. It can be said that the manufacturing cost of the new nano robot is zero except for the material cost! "

"It's amazing!" Louis couldn't help but exclaimed, "we didn't think of using the technology of robot self replication to expand the number of nanorobots, but there are two big limitations. First of all, if a nanorobot wants to copy a similar kind of robot, it needs a lot of work, just like a human being has to design a bionic human that is no different from human beings Months or even years of hard work can't be done. "

"Then there is the matter of materials." Lewis continued, "there are strict requirements for the selection of nanorobots. In fact, we have found artificial compounds on the parts of nanorobots. Their shells are made of inorganic metal materials with a melting point of more than 3000 degrees Celsius. This alone can make them immune to the high temperature of thousands of degrees. In addition, there are dozens of materials in the body. At the same time, they have melting modules, construction modules, and can convert light energy into motion The power of the micro solar module, the technology contained in it even exploded our electronic mosquitoes and flying sticks

"But I remember, these nanorobots have become so much by swallowing tungsten gold. Where are those tungsten gold?" Zhang Heng can't help frowning. This question has puzzled him all the time. If this is only a movie, Zhang Heng can say that this is a bug when making a movie. But what happens when the movie becomes a reality?

"That's what I'm going to emphasize." Louis also showed an incredible look of admiration. He laughed and couldn't help playing charades. "Do you know how artificial elements were born?"

"You mean..." Zhang Heng couldn't help but shrink his pupils and murmured, "change the number of protons in the nucleus?"

"Yes, this kind of nano robot uses this method to change all kinds of swallowed materials into the materials they need, and then build and assemble them, so that they can be divided into two parts and two parts into four parts, so as to devour everything!"

Zhang Heng couldn't help but look shocked. Although he also guessed the possibility, when this possibility was verified, Zhang Heng was even more shocked. He forced interference in micro particles of the same level as protons, which was already a divine means. Even Madame Curie, who first used the method of functional energy, just used the method of "atomic addition" Matter becomes another substance.The so-called famous atomic addition method is that when the nucleus of polonium No. 84 splits, its "fragment" - helium nucleus will be ejected at a very high speed. In the helium nucleus, there are two protons. So they used the helium as a "shell" to "fire" at aluminum plates. In the end, a miracle occurred that aluminum, a metal element, turned into phosphorus.

This method with too many restrictions is somewhat tricky. However, in the era of extremely underdeveloped Science in the last century, this achievement even exceeded Zhang Heng's achievement in inventing T-1, which laid a solid foundation for human beings to complete the periodic table of elements. Later, physicists invented cyclotron, also known as atomic cannon, under their inspiration.

However, in front of us, this kind of nano robot has the ability to change the material structure at will and make one element into another. Moreover, the method is much simpler than the atomic cannon and other methods. If this technology can be mastered by Zhang Heng, then Zhang Heng's potential will expand in an instant.

The so-called ancient people's pursuit of turning stone into gold is nothing more than this.
