Chapter 218 I am just an amateur researcher

The beam has good monochromaticity and directivity, and everything about it matches the predictions for stimulated amplification of light.

Although the monochromaticity of ruby ​​laser is poor, it is only compared with other lasers with good monochromaticity.

After all, the wavelengths of light it can cover are limited.

If the people in the 17th Ministry of Machine Building were not clear about what this thing represented, then the people in the Original Research Institute knew it very well.

This represents one of the few “firsts” we have achieved in technology so far!
In the near future, we will have another widely circulated first, which is the artificial synthesis of bovine insulin, but that thing will not be available for a few years.

Moreover, this first point is not something niche or insignificant; it is a technology with broad application prospects.

However, people today certainly don't know as well as Gao Zhendong as to where lasers can be used. Even if Gao Zhendong himself has never used it or seen it, he has heard more about it than they do.

Director Jiang held Gao Zhendong's hand and said, "Comrade Gao Zhendong, congratulations! Your stimulated emission amplifier is truly ahead of the world."

With Director Jiang's words, the leaders of the 17th Ministry of Machine Building felt completely at ease. This time, they had a sure thing!

Several people from the original research institute looked at Gao Zhendong with eager eyes, wishing he could give an academic report here.

Director Jiang was still relatively calm. He asked Gao Zhendong: "Director Gao, do you have any supporting materials for your achievement? For example, design ideas, theoretical calculations, practical processes, etc."

Gao Zhendong smiled and nodded: "Yes, I wrote a paper, and I also have relevant theoretical and design materials. Now it is basically finished."

Director Jiang was overjoyed: "That's great! We need to think carefully about how to get this thing."

He turned to look at the leader of the 17th Ministry of Machinery and said, "Leader, this matter is of great importance. I suggest that we report it to the National Academy of Sciences immediately and study how to launch this attack carefully."

The leader of the 17th Ministry of Machinery nodded and said, "Well, your suggestion is good. You are much more familiar with this aspect than we are. Comrade Gao Zhendong is not very clear about the situation in this regard, so I will entrust you to handle it."

Director Jiang thought for a moment and said, "Well, let's protect this achievement in the factory first. I think the factory's security force is very strong, much stronger than our unit's."

After all, the Third Steel Rolling Mill is a large factory with thousands or tens of thousands of employees. Its security force is definitely stronger than that of the Original Research Institute. The Original Research Institute itself is more inclined to basic theoretical research. To some extent, they are weaker in this regard than the Guidance Research Institute and the like.

Moreover, Director Jiang's suggestion also shows that he has no intention of coveting the results. You should keep the results among yourselves first.

The 17th Ministry of Machinery and Gao Zhendong both agreed to this arrangement. Director Jiang continued, "As for me, I will go back immediately to report this achievement to the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Ministry of Science and Technology, and the Academy will arrange the next plan. This matter is of great significance, and I cannot make the relevant decision on my own."

Ministry of Science and Technology, full name is the Ministry of Science and Technology.

The decision that Director Jiang mentioned was not about the authenticity of the achievement, but about whether, how, to what extent, and to what extent the laser papers and related materials should be made public.

So Gao Zhendong put the laser back into the safe, and the comrades from the original research institute went back to the unit excitedly. They wanted to report the matter as soon as possible.

Gao Zhendong had no idea what the people from the original research institute did when they returned.

However, starting from the time they left in the morning, several groups of people came to the Third Steel Rolling Mill within two days and watched the laser demonstration many times.

Among these people, there were many scientific figures whom Gao Zhendong had heard of in his previous life. This made Gao Zhendong inadvertently feel like he had really witnessed history.

Among them, there were even some of his teachers in some subjects at Wudaokou, which made Gao Zhendong feel like he was returning home in glory.

Everyone was very happy after watching the demonstration of the laser.

We really need some "firsts" at this level to prove to the world that as long as we start to stand up, we will be no worse than anyone else.

After two days of excitement, the Institute of Atomic Research brought Gao Zhendong a message that the Scientific Work Department, abbreviated as the Department of Science and Technology, invited him to the Institute of Atomic Research the next day to give a complete demonstration of his "stimulated emission amplifier of light" results and make an academic report.

It seems that this achievement has been fully recognized by relevant personnel.

This was the first time in Gao Zhendong's life that he had given an academic report.

This made Gao Zhendong excited for the whole night. Even someone with a good physique like him felt a little tired the next day.

However, this feeling was quickly diluted by the excitement of the laser's first large-scale public display. Gao Zhendong quickly rushed to the original research institute together with several factory leaders of the Third Steel Rolling Mill, including Lao Chen.

Although this matter has little to do with the actual work of the factory, it is normal for the factory leaders to be concerned about Gao Zhendong's work on such an important matter.

Director Jiang of the original research institute had been waiting at the entrance of the institute for a long time, and welcomed Gao Zhendong and others into the venue. In scientific research meetings, there should be less formality these days.

After the conference host introduced the brief background of the "light stimulated emission amplifier" and the great significance of this "first" in an excited tone, he handed the leading role to Gao Zhendong.

Gao Zhendong walked onto the stage and looked at the sea of ​​heads below the stage. Many of those faces could only be seen in photos in his previous life.

He was so excited that his words were a little sharp: "Dear leaders and comrades, I will first demonstrate my 'light stimulated emission amplifier' and give a brief introduction to its principle, development process and application prospects."

As usual, Gao Zhendong first demonstrated the laser.

A small number of people present today have seen a laser demonstration, but most have not.

The original research institute was well prepared for this. All the curtains in the conference room were drawn and the lights were turned off.

When that beam of pure red light danced in the sky above the conference hall, everyone held their breath, and you could hear a pin drop in the entire conference hall.

Someone couldn't help but say: "So beautiful~~~"

Then a round of applause broke out in the conference hall and lasted for a long time.

After a long time, the applause subsided, Gao Zhendong turned off the laser and turned on the lights.

Then, under everyone's enthusiastic gaze, Gao Zhendong began his report.

"The stimulated amplification of light by radiation originated from scientist Einstein in 1917."

"Here, the trivalent chromium ions act as excited ions, which determine the absorption spectrum of the material"

"The pumping method uses high-pressure xenon lamp flash pumping, and the optical pump and ruby ​​laser material are respectively located at the two focal points of the elliptical focusing cavity."

"Finally, it can be seen that this is a three-level system, in which the proportion of particles on 2A is"

The whole report was a bit boring for people who were not majoring in this field, but with the emotional support of “the best in the world”, they still listened attentively.

In particular, some comrades from the original research institute who were originally engaged in this profession were fascinated by what they heard.

In addition to the ruby ​​laser itself, Gao Zhendong also gave a brief outlook on the application scope and prospects of the laser.

"The stimulated emission of light has a very broad application prospect due to its own characteristics, such as ranging, guidance, scanning, communication, processing, medical treatment, etc., and has great application potential."

Speaking of this, people from other professions or industries will not be troubled. For example, people from the National Defense Working Committee. In fact, the earliest demands for many new technologies started from this aspect.

These technologies include the Internet we are using now, whose predecessor, ARPANET, was used for defense purposes.

The leaders of the National Defense Working Committee also brought people to the meeting. Although there had been no physical lasers before, everyone who worked in this field knew that the first potential application of lasers was in the National Defense Working Committee. Therefore, they were among the first group of people invited by the Ministry of Science and Technology to listen to the report.

To be honest, before coming, the leaders of the National Defense Work Committee did not know that the researcher of lasers was Gao Zhendong. When they saw Gao Zhendong walking up to the podium, they were a little confused. Why was it him? Why was it always him?
However, he quickly put this question behind him and immersed himself in Gao Zhendong's report.

Ranging, guidance, soft kill, hard kill.
The application methods mentioned by Gao Zhendong opened the door to a new world for the people of the Defense Work Committee.

No, we have to ask Gao Zhendong to go to the Defense Working Committee specifically for this matter and talk to us in detail about the application of this "stimulated radiation amplifier of light", the leader of the Defense Working Committee thought happily.

"My report ends here. If there are any shortcomings, please give me your criticism and corrections, leaders and comrades."

As soon as Gao Zhendong finished speaking, huge applause broke out again at the scene.

Amidst the applause, the leader of the Science and Technology Commission walked up to the podium and said with a smile: "Do you have any questions about Comrade Gao Zhendong's report? Please ask while Comrade Gao Zhendong, the 'first person', is here. If you miss this opportunity, it may not be so easy to find him again."

Many people raised their hands enthusiastically and asked Gao Zhendong about their questions.

Gao Zhendong answered most of everyone's questions one by one.

As for what he had not yet learned, he smiled and answered truthfully: "I have not studied this area yet. After all, I am just an amateur researcher, and there are many areas that I have not yet touched upon."

"Amateur researcher", when these words came out, the colleagues in the original research institute had the urge to kick him. Are you being modest or slapping me in the face?
