Chapter 1176
Prince Gong's Mansion, Su Lang put down his phone.
The smooth development of quantum computers has given Su Lang greater ambitions.
Traditional chips are now the mainstream, and they are also the focus of SMIC.
However, this only means the present, if we only focus on the present, then sooner or later SMIC will be surpassed by others and lose its technological advantages.
Therefore, in order to maintain the leading position of Zhongxin technology forever, it is indispensable to have a forward vision.
Quantum chips are one of Su Lang's goals.
As we all know, 3 nanometers is the physical limit of silicon-based transistors, and once the transistor size is below 3 nanometers, great instability is generated.
In such a situation, silicon-based chips will become less reliable, and the upgrade of chip manufacturing process technology will also face great challenges.
Faced with this challenge, the world is looking for a breakthrough.
According to the known research results, the current thought possible solution is quantum chips.
The so-called quantum chip is to integrate quantum circuits on the chip, and then carry the function of quantum information processing.
It's more responsive and more stable.
If silicon-based chips represent the present, then quantum chips are one of the future development directions.
At this moment, many countries and research institutes in the world are already working on the development of quantum chips.
Overtaking in a corner?
Su Lang will not give other countries a chance to overtake in corners.
Thinking of this, Su Lang simply took out his mobile phone and dialed Zhou Ziwen's number.
"Toot toot too~"
After three blind tones, the phone was successfully connected.
"Su Dong..."
"Lao Zhou, the development of the third-generation dragon scale chip is
going well, right?" "It's going well, the sample has been rolled off the assembly line, and now the performance test is underway."
Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.
Since Su Lang became the owner of SMIC, the entire SMIC researchers seem to have been opened up to the second line.
R&D inspiration is like mushrooms after a rain, surging upward, often one inspiration is not gone, and another inspiration bursts out.
Back in the day, they would often be stuck for weeks or even months because of a single technical problem.
But since Su Lang became the master, this situation has never happened.
The whole chip research and development process was smooth sailing, and there were almost no obstacles.
Even if there were, it would be easy to get by.
Zhou Ziwen can say unceremoniously that because of Su Lang, the iteration speed of the entire chip has been several times faster
! Even the samples have been rolled off the production line
! Tsk, this is the charm of a technology tycoon!
Su Lang admired in his heart, then nodded with satisfaction, and said: "Old Zhou, you did a good job." "
Next, I'm going to give you a new mission. "
New mission
? Is there any black technology coming out?
Hearing this, Zhou Ziwen's little heart instantly rose to his throat, and his expression instantly radiated.
3nm chips, graphene batteries, and chaotic systems...
Every black technology has greatly improved SMIC's strength!
If this time, there will be another black technology.
Tsk, the picture is so beautiful...
Zhou Ziwen's mind was spinning rapidly, thinking about all the possibilities.
Is it a 1nm chip
, or artificial intelligence
, or something else?
After a long time, Zhou Ziwen regained his emotions: "Su Dong, please say..."
Su Lang said.
Zhou Ziwen: ???Wait, what did he hear
? Quantum chips?
Zhou Ziwen
was slightly stunned at first, and then his heart became hot.
He thought of countless possibilities, but he never thought that Su Lang would target the quantum chip.
Zhou Ziwen himself is a technician, and he knows more about chips than anyone else.
To be honest, traditional silicon-based chip technology has now reached a tipping point.
3nm is almost the limit of technology.
If the size of the chip is compressed, then the R&D cost invested is sky-high.
And that's not all.
Silicon-based transistors have a limit, and 3nm is already the limit of what he can compress while maintaining a stable state.
If the size is lower, the behavior of the electrons will be limited by the effect of quantum uncertainty, resulting in a quantum tunneling effect that passes through the "wall" that they would not otherwise be able to pass through, in which case the silicon-based crystal has a high probability of collapsing directly.
Seeking another way out is the consensus of all researchers.
And quantum chips are recognized as one of the ways out.
Without compressing the chip size, the performance of the chip is improved and the cost is greatly reduced.
"Whew~
" "Whew~"
Zhou Ziwen gasped heavily, and his heart was like a fire burning.
Today, SMIC has a technological advantage, but that advantage will diminish over time.
With the support of late-mover advantages and past heritage, other countries or research institutes will sooner or later crack the mystery of 3nm chips and then enter the field of 3nm chips.
According to Zhou Ziwen's estimate, this time is about 1 to 3 years, and there will be a breakthrough in research.
But if they had mastered quantum chip technology, it would have been different.
As a new technology that is different from traditional chip technology, quantum chip technology has higher technical barriers than traditional chips.
If others want to break through this technical barrier, the time it takes may be several times that of breaking through the technical barrier of 3nm chips.
According to rough estimates, SMIC will be able to lead the world by at least ten years.
Ten years later, even if some countries have broken through the technical barriers, it is wishful thinking to catch up with SMIC in a short period of time.
3nm chips win the present, and quantum chips win the future.
"Su Dong, don't worry, I promise to complete the task!" Zhou
Ziwen said with a serious face and a solemn tone.
"Lao Zhou, with your words, I am relieved, okay, I won't bother you, let's arrange work as soon as possible. After
that, Su Lang was about to hang up the phone.
Hey~
This script is wrong!
Zhou Ziwen was a little confused.
He always felt that something was wrong.
In the past, didn't Su Lang take out a stack of R&D materials at this time and smash it on his face?
No, it's not the right script.
"Su Dong, wait..."
didn't have time to think about it, Zhou Ziwen immediately stopped Su Lang.
"Old Zhou, is there anything else?"
Su Lang was a little surprised.
Although
it is embarrassing to say, Zhou Ziwen still has to say it.
"Su Dong, have you forgotten something?" Zhou
Ziwen said cautiously and tentatively.
"What's the matter
?" "Did you forget to send the information?"
Zhou Ziwen said.
Su Lang: "..."You
are already a group of mature workers, it's time to learn to do your own research and development."
"This time, no!".
