Chapter 483: A new microcosm

"Big brother!"
After seeing Tang En, Ilia rushed up without saying a word, then raised her face and stared at Tang Enmeng. Tang En actually saw the gloomy look from her eyes.
Lying down! ? She's just a child!
"Ilia, it's been hard. I heard that with the help of you, the Institute has made rapid progress?"
Before Elijah had time to speak, Pamela next to her smiled and said, "That's true. Elijah's magical talent is unparalleled. It is really hard to imagine her as a little human girl. With her help, we have succeeded The topological model of the magic array was copied, but now there is a new problem. "
Pamela didn't know the true identity of Elijah.
The robbed Yiliya pouted, and she buried her head in Tang En's arms and stopped talking.
Tang En rubbed her hair and asked Pamela: "The magic circle has been copied. What else is wrong?"
"The magic array press you provided."
Pamela paused and said slowly: "I have to say that your idea provides a convenient idea for the batch characterization of the magic circle. It is simply a genius idea, but now there is a problem, your improved micro The size of the magic array is too small, and the printing accuracy of the magic array press cannot meet the processing requirements. We have tried many times, and the yield is very low. In all likelihood, the magic will overflow due to the instability of the magic channel and then explode. "
"Magic overflow?"
"Yes, because of the precision of the stamping machine and the substrate material that carries the magic array, the magic array that is stamped and formed cannot reach the accuracy that you manually describe. Due to the instability of the magic channel, we observed after laying the magic dust The magic turbulence formed in the magic channel. After activating the magic array, the magic turbulence caused the magic array to be unstable ... "
Pamela's voice has a peculiar rhythm of elves, which makes people sound very comfortable. Although she speaks slowly, she clearly expresses her meaning to Tang En.
"Is it the question of machining accuracy at the end?"
Tang En's frown was slightly frowning, and Prandall's industrial foundation was very poor. Of course, the micro-engraving technology could not be counted on, not to mention that compared with the CPU immersion light engraving technology on the earth which was a few nanometers, it was difficult to achieve millimeter-level finishing .
And the magic array stamping machine that Tang En designed and built was only made to adapt to the production of magic energy furniture. Those magic energy furniture are very large, so there is no problem in this regard.
Now, the advent of the magic pistol amplifies this problem.
"Yes, although we have tried very hard to try various methods, there is still no way to solve the problem of magic overflow."
Pamela is also very troubled by this problem. As an elf scholar, she certainly knows that miniaturization of magic arrays is very difficult, but why is it difficult after miniaturization? She also only knows that miniaturization will cause the instability of the magic channel. As for why it is unstable, she can't say one or two or three.
Even the elves, let alone humans.
The problem now facing Tang En is very clear. If the precision of industrial processing cannot be further improved, the mass production of magic pistols is just a mirror.
Of course, Tang En can process the magic circle in its original form, then use deformation to shrink it, and then make it constant-but how efficient can he be alone?
Therefore, machining accuracy is a key technology that must be solved!
However, the problem of processing precision involves a lot of things, whether it is micro-observation technology, the accuracy of the mold, the material of the substrate, etc., which need to be solved step by step, and many of the problems involved in this cannot be solved. complete in one step.
For example, the mother machine of the magic array stamping machine. Of course, Tang En can manually use alchemy to create a stamping machine with higher processing accuracy. However, they do not have the observation technology and cannot further improve the industrial processing skills. Blindfolded.
So what needs to be solved now is actually to increase the observation scale of Prandall, to improve the observation technology at the centimeter and millimeter level to the micron level. After recognizing the micro world, they will naturally notice the problem and the technical direction that needs to be improved. Then the corresponding technology tree will naturally be clicked.
The specific technology of the microscope Tang En is not very clear, just knowing about it, he is just a general university graduate with a wide range of knowledge, and has graduated for many years, it is very good to recall some of the principles.
On the earth, a thousand times the optical microscope was invented in the eighteenth century, enabling people to see the shape, size and internal structure of microorganisms with their eyes.
Until physicists discovered the law between magnification and resolution, people did not know that there is a limit to the resolution of optical microscopes. This limit of resolution limits the infinite increase of magnification, and 1600 times has become the optical microscope. The highest limit of magnification makes the application of morphology restricted in many fields.
Although the optical microscope is not as good as the electron microscope, don't even think about the electron microscope. If he has that kind of knowledge reserve, he is likely to be in the sky now.
The discovery of the microscope has helped people to understand the micro world, greatly broadened the development of biology, physics, and materials science. Each increase in the scale of observation will bring a rapid development in science and technology, which shows the importance of observation technology.
At present, Tang En has not heard of Prandall's magic similar to a microscope. The effect of the talented hawk-eye technique is the effect of a telescope. Here, the corresponding optical phenomenon and principle have not been noticed at all, so now he wants to When a magic stick.
Looking at the busy staff in the academy and looking at Pamela with a troubled face, Tang En pondered for a moment, and said, "I don't know if you have heard of the lens principle?"
"The lens principle?"
Pamela looked blank, she turned to Nokia and shouted, "Master Nokia, have you heard of the lens principle?"
"Don't call me a master! I can't even be called a master ... the lens principle? Where do I seem to have heard similar words?"
Nokia put down its work, frowned, and said, "I can't remember where I used to see the word, it seems to be recorded in the literature in which remains."
Tang En smiled slightly. The gnomes must have used this technology in the past, otherwise they would not have been able to make a nuclear bomb and land on Prandall's satellite.
"The lens principle is simple. Have you noticed soap bubbles?"
"Soap bubbles?"
A group of people shook their heads. The soap was made by Tang En. It has only recently been popularized as a daily necessity. People only pay attention to the convenience of soap. Where can I pay attention to soap bubbles.
"Uh, well, then another example."
Tang En thought for a moment, put down Elijah, and then snapped his fingers. The water elements in the air around him quickly condensed, and formed a convex lens with a thick center and thin sides in accordance with his consciousness.
Then he came to the yard with a group of curious babies, and after glancing at Lumbica (the sun) in the sky, he asked Nokia to fetch some hay and put it on the ground, then pointed to the convex lens floating beside him and said, "This is A typical convex lens, and its role is to focus the beam. "
"Gathering the beam?"
A group of people are confused again, light is light, can they gather?
Tang En was not too busy explaining, and after they finished the experiment, they naturally understood.
He adjusted the position of the lens so that the focus was on the hay, and then said, "Look at it."
A group of people stared at the hay and looked at it with surprise, and suddenly a very bright light spot appeared on the hay.
"That spot is the focused beam. It's hot, but only at the focal point of the lens."
The ice lens he squeezed was very large, so the refractive index was very strong. When Tang En was talking, the hay had started to smoke, and as soon as the voice fell, the hay had a "click" sound and burned.
"It's on fire !?"
A group of people were taken aback. They did not see the Lord Lord's spells, but just used a strange "lens", and the hay was lit?
"Yes, as I said, at the focal point of the lens, all the light passing through the lens is refracted to a point, so the temperature there is very high, and it can be used for ignition."
Tang En explained patiently, then he lowered the lens, smiled slightly, and said, "But just now it is a principle in another field. Now what you want to see ... the world after the lens, you come to see."
Pamela stepped forward, looked down through the lens and looked down, and then she froze.
"What's wrong? I want to watch too!"
Nokia, who is most interested in new things, leaped and shouted, "You are discriminating against the height of the gnome!"
Tang En suddenly laughed, and as soon as he lost his mind, Nokia rolled the dirt under his feet and lifted him up. Nokia couldn't wait to look at it, and then screamed, "Oh my God! This, this, this The principle of the "Master Glasses" documented in the literature !? It is so simple !? "
Tang Enyi: "Master glasses? Gnome X-ray glasses?"
"Yes! No!"
The enthusiastic Nokia shouted, "In a relic we unearthed, a surviving document records that in the past civilization, one of the necessary auxiliary tools for a true engineering expert, a kind of The tools worn on the eyes can help the master of engineering to perform precise machining work-but we have not found any prototype for reference! It is still a difficult problem to solve! "
Nokia said excitedly: "I can't imagine, the principle is so simple! Light! Lens! This is the secret!"
Tang En was relieved. It is good to have a scientific race, otherwise he may have to work hard to explain the detailed principles, which is more troublesome.
"Yes, it is."
Tang En nodded: "In addition to convex lenses, there are concave lenses, single-sided convex lenses, etc ... the most important thing is that if you combine these ... you will find a new world."
