In the new era, the demand for technological innovation in economic and social development is becoming more and more urgent. The new technology just provides the opportunity of 'curving overtaking', but instrument The industrial development situation is still grim.
Basic research is the source of major innovation. Basic research provides new knowledge, new principles, and new methods to society. More importantly, basic research can generate new industrial forms in an unpredictable way. Targeting the world's technological frontiers, strengthening basic research The world's major technology powers are doing this thing consistently. Recently, Instrumentation What new technologies are emerging in the industry, and new results are being transformed. Let’s take a look:
Russia develops waste aluminum hydrogen production technology and experimental equipment
The Russian National Research University 'Moscow Steel Institute' has developed a chemical hydrogen production technology and experimental equipment for aluminum and non-ferrous metal scraps. The hydrogen produced can be used in on-board power supply systems and stationary small power plants. The device is suitable for treating waste aluminum and other hydrolysis. The metal is used to prepare hydrogen fuel, which has reliable explosion-proof property. Because the metal aluminum surface is easy to form an oxidized protective film, the contact between the oxidant and the metal aluminum is inhibited, and the chemical reaction is inhibited.
Japanese team found diabetes drug SGLT2 blocker
Research teams from Kyushu University and Tokyo Medical and Dental University have found that SGLT2, which is a clinical blocker for the treatment of type 2 diabetes, can delay the onset of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis and liver cancer. Deterioration. Further research on this basis found that cangliflozin changed the metabolism of glutathione in mouse adipose tissue, making the proportion of reductive glutathione higher than that of oxidized glutathione, thereby expanding The ability of adipose tissue to store energy.
Chinese scientists have made new progress in the field of direct detection of dark matter
Under the support of the “Development of Dark Matter Experiments for High-purity Arrays”, the China Darkmatter EXperiment (CDEX) cooperation group has made significant progress in the field of direct detection of dark matter, in the range of 4-5 GeV. The sensitivity of direct detection of spin-independent dark matter is increased to 8×10-42cm2, which is the best level in the world. This work provides an important basis for the construction of future tons of high-purity germanium detectors and the design of modular arrays. The background level control of the experiment provides important experimental support, and also provides important experience for low background front-end electronics, base metal purification and high-purity germanium detector fabrication.
Italian scientists discover monoatomic catalyzed growth of graphene
Graphene is used in a variety of applications in industry and technology and is considered to be a near-perfect material. However, graphene is difficult to produce and therefore expensive. Scientists at the University of Trieste and the National Research Council have found that On the surface of metallic nickel, the moving metal nickel atoms act as catalysts and promote the formation of graphene. Related research opens up new possibilities for graphene production technology, for developing new and more efficient at the industrial level. The graphene production process is of great significance.
Russian scientists get a new curved beam
The joint research team of Tomsk Polytechnic University, St. Petersburg State Information Technology, University of Mechanical and Optical (ITMO), Bangor University, and Ben Gurion University, Israel, acquired a new type of artificial curved beam, which scholars call ' Photon hooks. Previously, the scientific community only knew about one kind of Airy curved beam. 'Photon hooks' can be used for microscopy to obtain ultra-high resolution images. Scientists have shown that it can act as a nanoparticle operator and move them.
The core technology directly affects the competition pattern of big countries, which cannot be exchanged for money and the market. The development of core technologies requires the foundation of basic research. There is no end to technological innovation. To this end, researchers from all over the world are studying hard and making progress. The emergence of the heavy equipment of the batch of countries is rapidly driving the rise of every powerful country.
