Chapter 172 Cryo-electron microscope was successfully developed
"Okay, let's take a look!"
Aling couldn't help but urge.
Xiao Dezi adjusted the lens equipment, and then turned the lens to the moon shadow that was already exposed in the sky.
After all, the sun is going down now and some stars have appeared.
"It's adjusted, let's take a look!"
So, the two of them came to the eyepieces, and a planet with bumps on its surface and a faint white light suddenly appeared in their eyes.
That is the moon, the satellite of the earth.
Under the lens of the telescope, the surface of the moon is clearly visible, and the large and small craters are clearly visible.
"Wow! Is it so clear? Try magnifying it a hundred times!"
So, after adjusting the multiple, Xiao Dezi observed again.
The original surface of the moon became clearly visible, and traces of the mountains could be faintly seen.
"Wow! Dezi, you have found a treasure! The optical technology of Suiren Technology is so awesome, not only in mobile phone photography, but also in astronomy!"
Aling also came over to observe and couldn't help but marvel.
"Yes, it seems that we will have a good astronomical optical equipment manufacturer in China in the future."
Xiao Dezi murmured, looking at the data tested using special testing software on the computer.
As a relatively senior astronomy enthusiast, he naturally knows what the emergence of this astronomical telescope means.
Xu Li looked at the busy researchers gathered around a long, large box of equipment, which seemed to be openable and contained many mechanical devices and wires that ordinary people could not understand.
"How long will it take to test?"
Xu Li asked Xu Hua standing aside.
"About five minutes later, we are debugging relevant parameters."
Xu Hua looked at the time.
"Yeah." Xu Li nodded, and then just looked at it quietly.
After all, he can't help now. The cryo-electron microscope in front of him has been built, but he doesn't know how it performs. Now he is ready to test it.
Five minutes passed, Xu Hua immediately ordered everyone to stop and start testing and experimental work.
"The software system is normal!"
"Officially entering experimental testing!"
Following the order, the researchers took a sample of about 3 nanometers, placed it on the prepared copper grid, and then put it into the cryo-electron microscope sample preparation machine to prepare samples.
Because the next step of microscopic imaging can only be carried out if the sample is frozen.
Researchers are also always paying attention to the various performance data presented by the electron microscope.
After the sample was placed on the sample stage on the cryo-EM, Xu Hua immediately issued the next instruction: "Start the electron gun!"
This step is to send corresponding electrons from the electron gun installed in the cryo-EM and pass through the sample, and then the special optical camera in it will capture these electrons and image them.
This special camera was developed by Xu Li himself using honeycomb compound eye technology, which can greatly optimize the resolution and make the image clearer.
And it can also generate a series of videos through connected computer equipment instead of a single static picture.
Soon, a clear image of cell molecules appeared on the computer monitor, and they seemed to be swimming.
"Building protein image models."
Subsequently, the software system on the electron microscope began to automatically build a 3D protein image model through the core AI algorithm.
The data on the screen of the device testing the performance is constantly changing.
Soon, a different protein image model was constructed, and the data on the test equipment also showed that the test passed perfectly.
"Success!"
I don’t know who made the noise, but everyone present cheered immediately.
From now on, they have a cryo-electron microscope with completely domestic technology, which is basically superior to foreign countries in terms of performance.
"Ahem, everyone, it's not over yet. We still need to do more testing before we can determine the final result."
Xu Li coughed, and he naturally saw the excitement of these researchers.
However, due to scientific rigor, the performance of a piece of scientific research equipment still needs to be tested multiple times to avoid any technical risks.
"You're right, principal, don't get excited and go test it a few more times!"
Xu Hua nodded.
The R&D staff hurriedly went to test it many times.
After a whole afternoon of busy work and many tests, the data and results show that.
This is the success of the domestic cryo-electron microscope they developed!!
"Great! Finally succeeded!"
"I've been so busy these past few months that I've almost gone bald~wuwuwu~"
Everyone is venting their joy.
In the past few months, many key core technical problems in cryo-electron microscopy have not been simple at all. If it were not for the help from the Institute of Materials Technology and previous preparations, it would not have been completed so quickly.
"Okay, in order to celebrate our success, everyone here has a bonus of 100,000 yuan. You can also apply to the company for the Spring Festival holiday in advance and take advantage of this period to have a good rest."
Xu Li smiled slightly.
"Long live the principal!"
The young researchers immediately said happily.
After all, they can get holidays even if they do boring work, and they can also get bonuses. In addition, plus the generous salary provided by the school, isn't it wonderful?
"But before that, the finishing work will be done well. If any problems are found, they will be discovered and dealt with in time, and we will strive to complete the production before mid-December!"
"Yes!"
Everyone replied loudly, and then went about their business.
"The development of this cryo-electron microscope is really not easy~"
Xu Hua suddenly felt a little emotional.
"It's not easy. The West has monopolized us for a long time. Someone needs to break down this wall, don't you think so? Professor Xu?"
Xu Li turned to look at him.
"Yes, this wall that we once could not climb is no longer despairing."
Xu Hua smiled and asked, "Principal, what are you going to do next?"
"Well~ after the test results and everything pass, you can submit the relevant documents to the State Intellectual Property Office and the Medical Supervision Bureau, so that it can be put on the market as soon as possible, but the publicity will not be used for the time being, and we will talk about it when the time comes."
Now, we still need to gather our strength again, because the advantages of honeycomb compound eye lens technology have not yet been fully utilized. Although breakthroughs have been made in microscopes, astronomical telescopes, and digital photography, the influence is still not enough.
There needs to be an opportunity to launch these heavyweight products and technologies under the company's name.
When these all pass a series of quality control tests and go into mass production, they will definitely cause a sensation across the country and even the world.
"Yeah."
Xu Hua replied lightly.
He is also somewhat looking forward to the day when cryo-electron microscopy technology is announced to be officially conquered.
Of course, it is not only cryo-electron microscopy, but also other relatively small high-end optical microscopy equipment, which are enough to shock the scientific research community.
Mainly due to the addition of artificial intelligence and honeycomb compound eye lens technology, these things were quickly developed under the acceleration of Xu Li’s bugs.
