When I am reborn, I just want to be a top student

The significance of a rocket engine with a thrust of one thousand tons is well known to all countries involved in space rockets.

Whether it was the bald eagle, the big hairy bear in the north, the traditional power the sun never sets, or the neighboring country of Sakura, as soon as they heard the news, it caused huge discussion.

Without exception, these countries' first reaction was to determine whether the matter was true or not.

After all, everyone is aware of China’s previous rocket development.

Although some achievements have been made in this field, we are still lagging behind in terms of rocket engine thrust.

With only a few hundred tons of thrust, many of China's space programs are very conservative, with a plan often lasting five to six years, or even more than ten years.

This is done not only because of the limitations of aerospace technology, but also because of the desire to set a loose time frame so that every step can be taken steadily.

However, there are naturally both good and bad things in the world.

Extending the duration of the space program can certainly ensure that every step is taken steadily, but it also leads to a huge waste of funds.

If given a choice, not many people would want to choose this option.

Extending the planning time of the space mission is just a helpless choice.

According to the estimates of countries with advanced aerospace technology, it will take at least ten years for China to catch up.

Even ten years may not be enough. In some core areas, the gap will only get bigger and bigger.

The rocket engine is the core of it.

However, this unanimously accepted inference was broken after China announced that it had exceeded 1,000 tons of thrust.

It is not difficult to verify the authenticity of this news.

So, the next day, mainstream media around the world announced the news.

《Shocking! China breaks through the difficulty of 1,000-ton thrust rocket engine! 》

"Another powerful country joins the aerospace field!"

《With a thousand-ton thrust rocket engine, China is about to become a space power! 》

"..."

One official media outlet after another, as if they had made an appointment, reported this incident together.

Judging from the title, one can clearly feel the malice and fear towards China's breakthrough in the 1,000-ton thrust rocket engine.

Wang Donglai did not pay any extra attention to these.

After the successful ignition test at the Tongchuan Test Center, Wang Donglai returned to Tangdu.

If Wang Donglai was not the founder of Galaxy Technology, he would be the designer of this rocket engine.

I'm afraid he's already very busy by now.

After all, such a major technological breakthrough will inevitably involve various publicity, and at the same time, related technical promotion will also be carried out internally.

But it just so happens that this rocket engine is owned by Galaxy Technology, which was founded by Wang Donglai.

This makes things a little subtle.

Legally speaking, the ownership of the Hercules rocket engine belongs to Wang Donglai and Galaxy Technology, not the Aerospace Group.

So, if the national team wants to use this rocket engine in new space missions, they will need to discuss with Wang Donglai.

It is either technology licensing or business cooperation.

No matter which one you choose, you have to put out real money, just like doing business.

After all, Galaxy Technology started the space rocket business in response to the call from above. It was one of the first private enterprises to enter the field in China and it has set a good demonstration effect.

Now, it has produced such a striking and amazing effect, which is even more symbolic.

An inappropriate response may lead to some undesirable consequences.

Wang Donglai knew all this very well.

However, he ignored it.

Because of this matter, to be honest, he didn't have much room for bargaining.

The rocket engine with a thrust of 1,000 tons has been a major state secret since the moment it was successfully developed.

How to deal with it is no longer something Wang Donglai can easily decide.

Back to Galaxy Technology.

Wang Donglai could feel that the attitudes of Liang Bo, Sun Yu and others had changed greatly.

Although these people are also senior executives of Galaxy Technology, they all follow Zhang Bytedance, Huang Zheng and others. They are like my vassals' vassals are not my vassals.

Wang Donglai doesn't care about this, as long as these people can do their job well and don't affect the development of Galaxy Technology.

However, after the Hercules rocket engine was successfully ignited and tested, Zhang Bytedance and Huang Zheng changed their attitudes first, and on the way back, they also expressed their loyalty to Wang Donglai.

In this way, Wang Donglai had an idea in his mind.

As October of 2016 approached, Wang Donglai started to get busy with another matter.

That is the technological breakthrough in the semiconductor field!
Galaxy Technology's materials laboratory.

At Galaxy Technology, there isn’t much else, but there are many laboratories of various kinds.

Regarding these high-end technology research, Wang Donglai has never put pressure on researchers to achieve certain results.

In the laboratory.

After changing into his lab coat, Wang Donglai started to get busy.

What is photoresist?
This question may be an unfamiliar word to many people.

However, people in the semiconductor field must know this thing.

Although it is inconspicuous and not as valuable as a lithography machine, it is also an extremely core key.

It is a graphic transfer medium that uses photochemical reactions to transfer the required fine patterns from the mask to the substrate to be processed through a photolithography process. It is composed of major chemical components such as film-forming agents, photosensitizers, solvents and additives, and other components. Under the irradiation or radiation of ultraviolet light, deep ultraviolet light, electron beam, ion beam, etc., its solubility changes. After treatment with appropriate solvents, the soluble part is dissolved and the desired image is finally obtained.

Photoresist is widely used in the processing and production of fine graphic circuits in the optoelectronic information industry and is a key material for micro-processing technology.

In the semiconductor field, photolithography is the most core process in chip manufacturing. The quality and performance of photoresist are key factors affecting chip performance, yield and reliability.

Photoresists are also divided into ordinary broadband photoresists, g-line, i-line, KrF, ArF and the most advanced EUV photoresists.

According to different application fields, it is also divided into PCB photoresist, LCD photoresist and semiconductor photoresist. Among them, PCB photoresist has the lowest technical barrier, and semiconductor photoresist has the highest technical threshold.

The global photoresist market sales have reached 20 billion.

This is not a large scale, but it is very important.

At present, in this field, the core manufacturers are mainly from the Sakura Country, the Bald Eagle Country and the Kimchi Country. The top five manufacturers account for approximately 91% of the global market share.

Wang Donglai chose the photoresist after careful selection.

In the laboratory, Wang Donglai carried out the manufacturing process given by Wa step by step.

Yes! Photoresist was not invented by Wang Donglai, but Wa developed it through learning from large models and then using huge computing power.

The Internet age is the data age.

With data, you can do a lot of things.

For example, if it comes to the research and development of photoresist, other companies may need to experiment bit by bit, and take their chances, to discover a new formula for photoresist materials.

However, Galaxy Technology does not need that.

You just need to provide Wa with a large amount of relevant materials and data and she will be able to conduct virtual experiments.

In this way, a new material formula can be obtained by paying only a negligible amount of electricity and computing power.

"Boss, according to my calculations, the accuracy of this formula is over 99.999%. There is no need to conduct further experiments. We can put it into production directly!"

Wa's voice suddenly rang out in the empty laboratory.

Wang Donglai was not frightened, but instead kept busy with his own work without turning his head. He said calmly, "I know that with your research ability, there will be no problem with the formula of this photoresist, and it can be put into production directly."

"However, I still need to conduct experiments, and I also need to keep some data on failed experiments."

"Can you think about why I do this?"

Wa's voice paused for a moment before she spoke: "Based on the information in my database, the possibility of keeping a low profile is greater. The second possibility is that they are taking measures to keep my existence secret."

Wang Donglai nodded gently, then shook his head and said, "You are both right and wrong!"

"A half-step ahead is a genius, a one-step ahead is a madman!"

"Photoresist is not a big problem. The difficulty lies in patent protection, which is the key."

"If we take other manufacturers' photoresists to the laboratory and reverse engineer them, we can figure out most of their composition. If we are bold enough, we can completely copy and produce them."

"However, the semiconductor field is a high-tech industry, and chip manufacturing is done by large companies. The quality of photoresist also has an extremely strict review process."

"As soon as a new photoresist appears on the market, it will appear in the sample laboratories of major manufacturers in the next second to analyze and reverse the composition of the ingredients. Once similarities are found and there is infringement, it will be a lawsuit."

"I left these experimental traces and failed experimental data just to lay the groundwork."

“If Galaxy Technology did not have these failed experimental data and could have achieved a breakthrough directly, how would the outside world view it?”

"Once a product is produced, it must face the market."

"After laying the groundwork, many things will become logical."

"You are the only true artificial intelligence AI in the world. I believe you have also seen various statements about artificial intelligence on the Internet, as well as the current research and development of artificial intelligence by humans."

"It can be said that your appearance will bring infinite possibilities to this world."

“It could get better, it could get worse.”

"As for whether it gets better or worse, it depends on how you treat and use your abilities."

"I want to use your abilities to make the world a better place, so I need to use your abilities more carefully."

"Conceal your existence and avoid your direct exposure. This is what I must do."

Wang Donglai said this to Wa while he was busy with his own work.

And Wa also fell into deep thought.

Although Wang Donglai handed over all the research and development of photoresist to Wa, it does not mean that he does not understand these technologies.

With his learning ability, if he puts all his effort into it, he can achieve a breakthrough in a short period of time.

Again, by reverse engineering the photoresist composition of other manufacturers, you can get a general idea.

For others, knowing the composition of other manufacturers' ingredients, it is difficult to circumvent patents and generate a new photoresist formula.

However, it’s different when it comes to Wang Donglai.

However, Wang Donglai did not do so. Instead, he treated this matter as an inspection mission and handed it over to Wa.

It is obvious that Wa's performance is satisfactory.

After receiving the photoresist composition formula and production process from Wa, Wang Donglai just thought about it for a while and understood the principle.

One Dharma is applicable to all Dharmas!
At Wang Donglai's point, he is no longer just a king in mathematics, but can also demonstrate extraordinary abilities and attainments in other fields.

……

More than two hours passed.

Wang Donglai did not achieve the breakthrough in one go, but instead experienced multiple failures in a planned and continuous manner.

Moreover, the failed experimental data was recorded, and then the experimental time was adjusted through Wa's ability.

In this way, Wang Donglai completed a clear experimental process within two hours.

The data from each failed experiment is better than the previous one.

After completing all the records, Wang Donglai began his final experiment.

Soon, Wang Donglai completed most of the process.

Looking at the three special materials in front of him, Wang Donglai remained calm and did not show any excitement at all.

"The tiny photoresist is really profound. Who would have thought that photosensitive materials with photodecomposition and photopolymerization properties and photosensitive initiators that can absorb radiation to stimulate optical changes would form photoresists and be used on lithography machines to produce chips."

After a slight sigh, Wang Donglai fused these materials together through a special process.

It didn't take long before a bottle of fresh photoresist appeared in front of Wang Donglai.

Looking at the photoresist in his hand, Wang Donglai finally showed a smile on his face.

According to Wa, the quality of this photoresist is EUV level.

Wa’s design plan also includes several levels of photoresist below this.

After all, the level of domestic semiconductors does not currently require EUV photoresist.

This does not mean that it cannot be used, but that if Galaxy Technology takes it out, no matter whether it is TJD, Central International, or even Samsung, these big manufacturers will not use it, nor dare to use it.

As I said, semiconductors require huge capital investment and are technologically advanced.

Without sufficient credibility and sufficient crisis pressure, large manufacturers will never easily replace core materials such as photoresist.

Wang Donglai is also very clear about this.

He also didn't expect that this photoresist would immediately occupy a share of the market after he developed it.

This is neither realistic nor reasonable.

His idea is actually very simple, which is to produce all levels of photoresists, starting with the mainstream ArF photoresist, and then gradually launching KrF and EUV photoresists.

At the same time, Wang Donglai was also preparing to do something.

That is to write a paper!
The name of the paper is "On the Important Role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Modern Materials Research!" (End of this chapter)
