The road to technology

Chapter 401 Space-time Curvature Effect
"Oh, it's not completely damaged yet, okay?"

When Yue Yuanzhou appeared in front of the detector, he was surprised to find that some functions of the detector hadn't been damaged, such as the camera, and of course the moving parts were missing.

Yue Yuanzhou didn't care about being photographed, he directly raised his hand and applied a strong electromagnetic field to the detector, ending its lingering life.

Under the control of powerful computing power, the detector shrouded in the electromagnetic field is immediately disassembled one by one. It is also a technological civilization, and technological creations follow general laws.

Even though this civilization belongs to sulfur-based life, the technological creations they created are also steel chips.

Since this civilization was born on an anaerobic planet, it may be different from human beings at the beginning, but at this stage, it is surprisingly consistent.

The fuel used by this detector is also an aerospace lithium battery, the tire is also a kind of synthetic rubber, the solar panel, the radar antenna, the heat collecting and releasing device in the center of the detector, and the calibration plate are basically the same, but the shell is made of high-strength carbon fiber. Board-based,.

The difference is its camera composition, which is different from the general camera on the earth. The optical camera of this detector is actually divided into two types. The front of the detector is a traditional pinhole imaging camera, and the other camera at the rear is a compound eye array photosensitive system, just like Dragonfly eyes work the same way.

Under the control of the force field, Yue Yuanzhou disassembled and classified the detectors one by one, and then reshaped them with a powerful electromagnetic field.

For some non-metallic materials with high magnetic resistance, Yue Yuanzhou directly applied the large unified force field for convenience, breaking up its structure and rearranging it.

A set of probes sent by sulfur-based life to this planet was melted and reshaped by Yue Yuanzhou with his bare hands.

As the dismantling and shaping progressed, Yue Yuanzhou was surprised to find that the chip used by this detector was not a silicon-based chip, but a carbon-based chip.

Using carbon nanotubes for conduction, the electron mobility of transistors can reach a thousand times that of silicon transistors, and carbon nanotubes have more free electron activities, so it is not easy to rub and heat. From this point, it can be seen that the limit motion speed of carbon transistors will be It is five to ten times that of silicon transistors, and about one-tenth of free silicon transistors in terms of power consumption.

The computer technology of the Shenzhou civilization directly skips the era of carbon transistors from the era of silicon transistors, and enters the era of ultra-sci-fi science fiction where gravitational junctions and strong interaction kinks are PN junctions.

When he noticed the carbon-based chip, he paid a little attention to the composition of the detector, and found many carbon-based fiber structures.

At this time Sophon also sent information about the development of this civilization chip to Yue Yuanzhou.

"Sure enough, any civilization is great! Different development processes will always have different emphases." Yue Yuanzhou said with emotion.

The first transistor directly produced by this civilization is a carbon-based transistor.

Yue Yuanzhou couldn't help feeling a little bit emotional about this. Most of the development of carbon-based civilizations is based on silicon-based chips. I didn't expect to encounter a sulfur-based life civilization here that uses carbon-based chips as the mainstay.

This is not good fortune to make people, nor is it good fortune to make civilization, but scientific development is sometimes like this. Different races may have some advantages in some different technologies.

For example, the purple fish civilization, they are born to communicate with quantum signals. If they develop, they will definitely far surpass other races in this respect.

Thinking of this, Yue Yuanzhou suddenly had an idea, that is to find the genetic samples of the purple fish civilization collected earlier, as well as metal civilizations, including the Na'vi people from Pandora, the Trisolarans from the Super God Universe, and the Trisolarans in captivity, etc. Suitable planets are all cultivated and then allowed to develop freely.

On the other hand, he was observing their civilization development process, thinking that there might be some unique technologies, even if they didn't, Yue Yuanzhou would have nothing to lose, just start over from the destruction.

At this time, Yue Yuanzhou took a closer look at the disassembled detector of this sulfur-based life civilization. He felt that this sulfur-based civilization should not be let go, at least get a complete set of gene samples and complete ecological circle gene samples.

Oh, and the Zerg in this universe, it seems that the cerebrum is already quite intelligent, so he might as well make a set together, this kind of Zerg mode is also of good value.

Now that you have encountered it, you can't miss it. For the genetic samples or research of other types of civilizations, the Shenzhou civilization does not have too many.

When it comes to the collection of genetic samples, Yue Yuanzhou is a little bit eager to gobble up the civilization. If it was usual, he would just say a word and have these helpers do it.

"No wonder Karl wants to bring the gluttonous civilization, sometimes it's really convenient." Yue Yuan Zhouxin said.

He continued to pinch the chip, of course he had to make it by hand, he didn't have spells, only technology beyond imagination, so making it was of course a technological means.And technological creations, even if more advanced civilizations come, can only start from the most basic, and it does not exist to make a set of equipment with a wave of hand, unless he now has a Cybertron ray weapon in his hand.

Since this detector has a carbon-based chip as the base, the chip made by Yue Yuanzhou is also a carbon-based chip.So much so that the function of the chip to be manufactured is different from the usual one. This chip has only one function, which is to serve as a port for connecting sophons.

As long as it is manufactured, the robot based on this chip can be controlled by the sophon itself, and directly become a truly intelligent robot.As for Sophon, he has a lot of them, he has them all over his body including his clothes.

Unlike silicon-based chips, silicon-based chips are carved with complex component structures on silicon wafers through photolithography or etching processes.The metaphor of the image is to carve a figure out of wood.

To make a carbon-based chip, it is first necessary to produce a large number of carbon nanotubes with high purity and uniform length, and then build these carbon nanotubes on the wafer.The metaphor of the image is to use a piece of small building blocks to build a figure.

The carbon tube material is doped to control the polarity and performance of the transistor, while for carbon nanotubes, the doping will lose the original operating speed and other advantages.

Therefore, there are mainly two construction methods.One is to treat the wafer with a polymer, then deposit the prepared carbon nanotubes on the wafer, and then rinse the polymer with a solvent, and the rest is a single nanotube, so that it can be made into transistor devices.

The second is the non-doping method of high-performance carbon nanotube CMOS components. This method directly abandons the doping step, and instead adjusts the work function of the contact metal to achieve its polarity regulation. For example, to make a P-type field For effect transistors, platinum sheets are used as contact metals, and to make N-type field effect transistors, aluminum is used as contact metals.

Yue Yuanzhou, who is a master of science and technology of Shenzhou civilization, can easily see that the production method of this sulfur-based civilization is the second one.

However, Yue Yuanzhou didn't need to follow these steps step by step. He directly controlled the force field with extreme precision to rearrange the molecules.

But at this time he discovered a problem.

"Huh?! This." Yue Yuanzhou frowned, a little surprised.

Because he entered the normal parameters, after building the carbon nanotubes, he verified again and found that the shape of the nanotubes was not round.

"Could it be?" Yue Yuanzhou suddenly thought of the reason, because he just came from the black hole over there.

So he began to detect the space-time parameters of this area. These basic functional devices were upgraded with him, so he can naturally detect them.

Soon Sophon and Neutron sent the message to him.

"It seems that due to the influence of the black hole, the curvature of space-time in this star field has changed."

Yue Yuanzhou randomized a few more data, and then he found that if the calculation here is still according to European geometry, then the area formula is no longer the length multiplied by the width, but must be multiplied by a constant. The same is true for the area of ​​​​a circle, the Pythagorean theorem Too.

The sum of the squares of the two right-angled sides of the Pythagorean theorem is no longer the square of the hypotenuse, but equal to the 2.021 power of the hypotenuse.

However, this had little effect on Yue Yuanzhou. He directly obtained the basic parameters of the technological equipment manufactured in this star field based on the observation results of the curvature of space-time, and then calculated using non-Euclidean geometry.

However, if these parameters are used to manufacture equipment, these equipment will inevitably have problems if they are taken into the universe with normal space-time curvature.

But as a super civilized existence, Yue Yuanzhou didn't panic about it, he only needed to input fine-tuning instructions to the deformed metal at that time.

However, encountering such a thing made Yue Yuanzhou curious about the mathematics of this civilization.

As soon as he thought about it, Sophon translated the mathematics textbook of this civilization to Yue Yuanzhou. As expected, the Pythagorean theorem in the mathematics textbook of this civilization is that the sum of the squares of two right-angled sides is equal to the 2.021 power of the hypotenuse.
