Chapter 455: Great opportunity to brush your face in front of peers

Under the operation of White Sheridan, the patent number was quickly obtained, even faster than the firm previously commissioned by Lu Zhou.
In this regard alone, the former head of Verizon Telecom's intellectual property department is indeed worthy of his annual salary.
After getting the patent number, everything was much easier.
Backed by a strong and expensive team of lawyers, the next approval is just a process.
In fact, many of the more sought-after patents are not new when they are licensed out during the filing of patent numbers.
However, although superconducting materials are a hot topic in academia, they are not so attractive in industry.
This can be seen from the "old owner" of Pablo Jarillo-Herrero's laboratory.
Prior to receiving $ 10 million in funding from Lu Zhou, when the research team led by Professor Herrero first did superconducting material research, the research funding was supported by the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation and the National Science Foundation , Not from a company in industry.
In short, with the help of Connie, Lu Zhou completed the entire paper before mid-November.
In the cafe of the Ivy Club, Lu Zhou recruited the other two main authors of the paper together and held a short meeting.
"The thesis has been completed. Professor Herrero and I exchanged opinions via email. They are very interested in the theoretical explanation of the superlattice band gap width at a new angle. The next theoretical work will continue around this aspect. get on."
Having said that, Lu Zhou paused for a moment and continued to look at the two partners. "If there is no accident, after this thesis, our cooperative R & D agreement with Professor Herrero is successfully concluded."
Because it was in the coffee shop, the three people just touched it gently with a coffee cup instead of the applause of "success".
The research direction of graphene superconducting materials has been opened, and the research teams of the two institutes here are definitely continuing to study the application direction and improve the SG-1 material, such as reducing its superconducting transition temperature. What.
As for Professor Herrero, he seems to be more interested in theoretical research.
Therefore, in the following research, although their work revolved around the same general direction, they studied different issues.
Of course, although the cooperation is over, Lu Zhou ’s promised 10 million US dollars in research funding will still support Professor Herrero's continued research.
After all, Professor Herrero's research team has helped him a lot in this research and development of SG-1 superconducting materials.
And Lu Zhou also hopes that Professor Herrero's research team will find more interesting things in the theoretical research, even if these things are not necessarily valuable.
Theoretical research is the basis of applied research. These seemingly worthless new discoveries may not be useful at critical moments.
After explaining the specific situation to his two partners, Lu Zhou paused for a moment and looked at Connie.
"As I said just now, the research direction of Professor Herrero will focus on the theory. You have visited and exchanged at MIT for a year, and you should know more about their work than I do."
"I want to hear your opinion on your next plans."
The method of calculating materials is a tool. It is the same whether it is Lu Zhou's redefined "Computational Materials Science Method" or the "First Principle" widely spread in the field of computational chemistry.
This tool can be used in applied research and theoretical fields, but for Connie, it determines its future development.
Connie hesitated for a long time on this issue, and finally said in a positive tone: "I want to do this."
After hearing his reply, Lu Zhou nodded.
"In a few days I will write you a letter of recommendation, and you will take it to Silicon Valley to find the Salot Laboratory, where Professor Salot, the person in charge, will arrange the next work for you. By then you will have yourself The research team is mainly responsible for the research of computational chemistry and superconducting materials ... Of course, the choice is yours. If you want to go to a university as a professor, I can also write another recommendation letter for you. "
Regarding the methods of computational chemistry, Lu Zhou has nothing to teach him, and this recommendation letter also means that Connie can graduate from his postdoctoral status.
If he is willing to continue working under his own hands, Lu Zhou is certainly very welcome. But if he had other plans, Lu Zhou also respected his choice.
Connie touched his head and smiled. "Of course I would rather work in your laboratory."
Just kidding, going to university to do research work, where is there a future and money to work in the laboratory of the Nobels?
What's more, according to Lu Zhou's conditions, he can properly be a "little boss" when he goes, and he needs to have funds and people. If he was struggling from the beginning, he would have to run forty years old at least to get there.
Although he looks like a gorilla, Connie is not stupid at all.
After hearing Connie's answer, Lu Zhou smiled and stretched out his right hand: "Welcome to join ~ EbookFREE.me ~ and shook hands with Connie. After releasing, the topic continued to return to the research itself.
Putting on a serious look, Connie continued: "Yes, professor, the thesis has already been written, so what next? Should we submit for the journal or the academic conference?"
After Lu Zhou thought for a moment, he replied, "Come to the meeting, if you move fast, maybe you can catch up with this year's MRS Autumn Party."
Although the deadline for submissions on the official website has passed, Nobels always have so many privileges that ordinary scientific dogs cannot imagine.
Both in the channel of submission and the degree of attention the report will receive.
At this time, Professor Chirick asked: "Are you planning to go to this year's MRS Autumn?"
Lu Zhou shook his head: "I have to go to Stockholm in December, I'm afraid I can't make time."
In previous years, the MRS Autumn Party was the second day after Black Friday, which lasted from the end of November to the beginning of December. The duration depends on the size of the meeting.
If you have to participate, you may not be able to catch up, but the schedule is a bit too tight.
Hearing that Lu Zhou wasn't planning to go, Professor Chirick laughed, "Since you don't have time, let me go to the MRS Autumn Party for you."
This is a pretense ... oh no, a good opportunity to brush presence in front of peers and industrial interfaces.
Lu Zhou may not have the need to brush the sense of presence, but for him, it is still a bit meaningful.
Seeing Professor Chirick's eager eyes, Lu Zhou shook his head with a smile.
"The report will be entrusted to you ... Connie, you will go with Professor Chirick then, and help him by the way."
Connie nodded excitedly.
"Okay, professor!"
