Chapter 592: You kid are deliberately teasing this old guy, right?

The institute.

Inside the office on the sixth floor.

The old man with graying temples stared, eyes fixed on the data in his hand, doubting if he was getting on in years and his eyes were playing tricks on him.

He had originally said that the project teams of the two families could communicate; although they didn't have much successful experience, failed experience also counted as experience, right? Maybe it could reduce trial-and-error costs for Xu Qingzhou.

But... Jc ≥ 4.0×10^6 A/cm²!?

Xu Qingzhou nodded and said, "Yes, this is experimental data from a week ago; the latest hasn't been organized yet."

He sipped his tea. "Actually, this data is not the most ideal. Iterative experiments are still being conducted. For top-tier superconducting thin films, the adjustment of every variable means the entire experiment must be redone; one move affects the whole situation."

"..."

Xiao Chenghan's mouth twitched. He had been doing research for decades and had experienced many things, big and small. He considered his mentality to be good enough, but hearing Xu Qingzhou's words, he still wanted to complain: You kid are deliberately teasing this old guy, right?

It's already 4×10^6 A/cm², and you still call it not ideal?

"As far as I know, you have only been conducting experiments for a month and a half."

Xiao Chenghan flipped through the materials, still finding it a bit hard to believe. "Now you've raised the data to 4×10^6 A/cm²?"

"Yes."

Xu Qingzhou said in a deep voice: "The reason I said the data is not ideal is not to deliberately stimulate you, but because we expect Jc ≥ 5.0×10^6 A/cm²."

When seeing this estimated data, Xiao Chenghan took a deep breath, restraining his shocked mood, and sighed: "Unbelievable, far exceeding the current international top level. No, it could even be called a revolution in materials..."

"Can I go to the laboratory to see?"

Xiao Chenghan couldn't wait to see the samples.

If the thin film possesses high-temperature plasma erosion resistance (>1500°C) and neutron irradiation resistance (>10^26 n/m²), it will replace existing tungsten-copper composite materials.

The completion date of the nuclear fusion experimental reactor might be shortened by several years!

"Of course you can."

Xu Qingzhou nodded with a smile, stood up, and led Xiao Chenghan toward Experimental Building No. 4.

The office of the superconducting thin film experimental group was right here.

When they entered, Li Yi was bowing his head to check the operation of the equipment in the laboratory.

"Professor Xu."

Li Yi stood up to greet him, looking suspiciously at Xiao Chenghan beside Xu Qingzhou.

"This is Professor Xiao Chenghan from the Institute of Plasma Physics, here to see the superconducting thin film samples. This is Li Yi, the person in charge of the superconducting thin film group."

Xu Qingzhou introduced their identities separately.

"Hello, Professor Xiao Chenghan."

Li Yi's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly greeted his senior. Institute of Plasma Physics? Isn't that the big shot doing the Xia Nation's own nuclear fusion project!

"Hello, hello. Where are the others in the laboratory?"

Xiao Chenghan scanned the laboratory suspiciously; the large office had only Li Yi.

Li Yi said: "The other one is doing characterization tests for the latest two sets of samples. There is only me here at the moment."

Xiao Chenghan was stunned for a moment, his expression somewhat dumbfounded: "You mean, the whole laboratory is just the two of you?"

"Yes."

Li Yi nodded.

"..."

Xiao Chenghan found that he had been shocked several times in this newly established institute. Looking through the glass at the complex equipment inside, he couldn't help but sigh: "The younger generation is formidable. Two people are supporting an international top-tier research project."

Li Yi said embarrassedly: "You flatter me. We are just following the professor's plan and didn't put in much effort." ===== CHAPTER 593 =====
