In the afternoon, Xu Qiu copied the graduation design with a USB flash drive and asked Teacher Wei to modify it.
"Oh, there are 120 pages!" Wei Xingsi sighed, then stared at Xu Qiu, and said with interest: "You put all your work in it."
"Yes," Xu Qiu nodded and explained: "including my four early work, they are all about the fullerene system."
"What, do you want to make a big news?" Wei Xingsi asked with a smile.
"There is a plan to use it for evaluation." Xu Qiu responded.
"But when it's so long, I have to see when," Wei Xingsi slid the mouse wheel a few times, stopped on the catalog of graduation projects, and said, "Have you shown it to others in the research group."
Xu Qiu let out a "um" and continued: "After I finished writing, I edited it with Han Jiaying, and then asked other people in the research group to help. Each person was responsible for a chapter and went through it again."
Wei Xing thought for a while, and said, "Okay, then I'll pick the key points and watch them carefully."
Xu Qiu nodded and expressed his understanding. This time, unlike previous SCI papers, Mr. Wei is linked to the corresponding author. If there is any problem in the article, Mr. Wei is the primary responsible person; like undergraduates or graduate students The graduation project is more that the students themselves are responsible for their own thesis, and the tutor only guides the experiment and article writing. Of course, to Xu Qiu's level, Teacher Wei's guidance is no longer needed.
In fact, even if it is a review expert, when evaluating the quality of an undergraduate graduation project, even if there are only 20 or 30 pages of text, it is impossible to read all of it carefully. In most cases, just look at the title. , Catalog, pictures, format, etc., and then form the first impression based on the part of the information that you see, and then combine the situation of answering questions to the students, and finally score the graduation design.
After reading the catalog, Wei Xingsi went to the important parts of the summary and conclusion to check. He watched for more than 40 minutes and found no obvious problems. The overall evaluation said: "The degree of completion is very high, the work content is rich, and the format is good. Very standard."
"Okay." Xu Qiu felt a lot of peace of mind. After all, even Teacher Wei, who has always been harsh, gave such a high evaluation, which proved that his writing was indeed very good.
Finally, Wei Xingsi didn't get rid of the vulgarity. Turning to the part of thanks, he watched it for two or three minutes and couldn't help but nodded and said: "The description is still very true.
Xu Qiu scratched his head, smiled awkwardly, and complained inwardly: "Don't you have any points in your heart?"
Returning to 216, Xu Qiu spent some time browsing the WORD document of graduation design. After confirming that it is correct, export it to PDF format, and then follow the format in the email received before, "Graduation thesis_name_student number_material science Department_Material Chemistry" was named, and finally the two files were sent to the counselor Yu Qiang.
May 21 is the deadline for the submission of graduation thesis. On May 24, that is, starting next Monday, the department will check the batch of undergraduates’ graduation thesis on CNKI. This is because this time of year During the peak period of graduation, HowNet has limited computing capacity, and it usually takes one to three days to get the results.
Some people, after writing their essays, are worried that they will not be able to pass the school's duplicate check for various reasons, so they first go to Taobao to purchase a CNKI duplicate check qualification, and then revise it according to the duplicate check results. The price is not low, but several hundred Dollars.
However, in fact, HowNet has not authorized any non-university or research institute personal review authority. The large number of "Knowledge Net" review merchants on Taobao does not comply with the regulations in a strict sense. Some schools do not. Restrictions from the students' side, such as setting up regulations, expressly prohibiting double checking in advance, etc., but for the time being, no one cares about the sellers.
In addition to the orthodox channel such as HowNet, there are other cheaper channels, such as PaperPass, etc. However, due to database and algorithm determination problems, there may be a big discrepancy between the results of the duplicate check on HowNet, even if the duplicates are obtained. The rate is only 3%, 5%, and you can only spend money to buy peace of mind. It is possible that the repetition rate here is very low, and it will pass the line on the CNKI.
Among these duplication check methods, some are charged according to the number of words, and some are charged according to the number of articles. Considering the high cost of self-checking, some students engage in the operation, splicing the papers of several people together, and then according to one Check the duplicate.
Of course, Xu Qiu was naturally too lazy to join in the excitement and spend the wrong money. His graduation project was written in one word, um, copied and translated...
Although the repetition of terminology in some industries is inevitable, it is almost impossible for the repetition rate to exceed the warning line of schools and departments.
The school’s requirements for undergraduates are very relaxed, and only if the repetition rate exceeds 30% will it be judged as plagiarism.
To be honest, Xu Qiu felt that a little effort should be made to translate Chinese into English and English to Chinese instead of directly copying other people's texts. It is still very difficult to achieve this standard with a repetition rate of more than 30%, as long as it is written by himself. For graduation thesis, the repetition rate of test results can be as high as 10%.
On Tuesday morning, Caiyi 216.
Xu Qiu is preparing to write the Sino-Swiss cooperation project proposed by Mr. Wei at the group meeting yesterday, just to plan and improve the experimental plan afterwards.
At this time, Wei Xingsi suddenly appeared at the door, straight to the point, and said directly: "Xu Qiu, the review comments for your NC article have returned."
"Ah, how's the situation going?" Xu Qiu asked. He glanced at the phone, and there was a new email from Teacher Wei. He hadn't noticed before. He secretly speculated, "From the slightly tangled expression of Teacher Wei, the article It must have not been directly accepted or rejected directly. It is probably a revised opinion. ’
Wei Xingsi took a sigh of relief and said, "Two positives and one negative. The editor gave suggestions for major changes."
"What is the negative opinion?" Xu Qiu asked tentatively.
"I took a rough look. It was about Feng Shengdong's TAS analysis part, which was then criticized by the second reviewer for nothing." Wei Xingsi paused and said, "However, the other two opinions are very positive. I have already forwarded it to your mailbox. Please write it up first. When Feng Shengdong gets up later, we will discuss it with him."
"Okay." Xu Qiu nodded, opened the mailbox, copied the review comments of the article into the WORD file, and began to write comments and responses. The Sino-Swiss cooperation project fund can only be temporarily shelved.
Speaking of it, this is the first time Xu Qiu has received comments on major changes. The previous articles either suggested direct acceptance or minor changes.
He carefully read several review comments.
The first reviewer is another familiar domestic template:
"Xu Qiu and others reported...If you consider the following opinions, I would recommend this article to be published in NC: One..."
Several specific opinions are not painful, including adding descriptions, answering some easy questions, quoting other people's literature, etc., and no additional supplementary experiments are required.
I have to say that there are still a lot of researchers in the field of organic photovoltaics in China. Xu Qiu has several articles, and when peer reviewers return opinions, there are Chinese people.
The main reason may be that the research funding in related fields in the beautiful country has been cut a lot. Many early organic photovoltaic practitioners chose to switch careers. For example, to engage in perovskite photovoltaics or OLEDs with field effect transistors. Teacher Wei is not willing After changing the field, he ran back from the beautiful country.
The second reviewer, most likely a foreigner, gave a rejection opinion.
Unlike the rejection comments received by Xu Qiu for an article before, the rejection comments this time are very specific, but mainly focus on TAS, TRPL, and other parts of the article, such as device performance and blend morphology. , The characterization content of light absorption, it is a stroke.
Xu Qiu now has a lot of knowledge about these mechanisms, so he can understand the opinions of the reviewers. Simply put, he thinks that the theoretical model proposed by Feng Shengdong is unreasonable.
In this regard, Xu Qiu is also very helpless. Theoretical science and experimental science are just like literati and warriors.
Literati is lighter than others, which is reflected in theoretical research, that is, people who hold different views, who do not accept anyone, everyone thinks their own theories are the best, and others' theories are rubbish...
For experimental science, take the device efficiency as an example. With the same system, my efficiency is 10% and yours is only 8%. Then I am NB better than yours. It is clear at a glance, and no one can fault it.
This is why Wei Xingsi and Xu Qiu have been staring at the world records of various systems, "Well, Wen has no first, Wu has no second." Good material performance is the last word.
For the third reviewer, the review comments seem to be a combination of Chinese and Western. It may be a Chinese researcher working abroad who has not lost some of the language habits retained in the early days.
The comments put forward by the reviewers are still very sharp. In addition to some routine questions that need to be answered, some experiments need to be added, including:
"It is recommended that the author test the energy level structure of PCE10 material by himself".
In this regard, because PCE10 is a classic material, Xu Qiu directly quoted the results of other people’s literature, and the reviewer’s consideration is "The energy level difference between the donor/receptor is mentioned later in the article~EbookFREE.me ~If the test results are not obtained under the same conditions, the accuracy of the results obtained is low."
Xu Qiu thought for a while, and adopted the other party's suggestion. This experiment is not difficult to do. It can be done in Handan Laboratory.
In addition, regarding the results of TAS, the reviewer also said: "Please declare that the strength unit used in the article is Feng Shengdong's omission. Xu Qiu has not done the TAS test, and really does not know what the specific strength unit is. .
On the whole, this reviewer should be a senior expert in the industry, who has been involved in all aspects of the organic photovoltaic field.
Based on previous review experience, Xu Qiu speculated that the editor only sent two experts for review at the beginning, one for the material direction and the other for the mechanism direction. As a result, he received one positive and one negative opinion, so he found another one. A senior expert conducted arbitration.
Senior experts issued opinions on major changes, so the final editor also gave opinions on major changes.
Next, Xu Qiu responded to most of the comments of the first and third reviewers according to his own ideas, and made corresponding changes in the article. As for the comments of the second reviewer, you have to wait. Make a decision after contacting teacher Feng Shengdong in the afternoon.
