This is how black technology should be used

Chapter 218 March and Carbon-Based 3nm Chips
March is a month that attracts much attention.

Not only because of the successful first flights of the Curve-[-] and Phoenix-[-] rockets, it means that the stars have two more launch vehicles that can enter orbit.

Moreover, they have a moderate carrying capacity and can recover the first-stage booster rocket, so the price is relatively cheap, which is very suitable for the flexible commercial launch market.

On their first flight, two Practical Technology "Xingxiu" communication network satellites were sent up, taking Practical Technology's global networking plan a step further.

But to say that the real attention is not something in space. After all, space is still some distance from people's daily life, so to say that it is something on the ground.

For example, a new mobile terminal chip.

March is also the season for mobile phone manufacturers' spring conferences.

Many domestic manufacturers have launched their own new equipment, but because it is the beginning of the year, they are basically improvements to last year's latest technology.

To be precise, it is to fully popularize the new technology demonstrated by Practical Technology last year, remove some things, add some of its own, and lower the price.

Since there are a lot of mobile phone manufacturers in China, the country is very busy, but because of the improvement of technology, the price has dropped instead, and now they are crazy outside to attack the city.

Only the federal country is completely prohibited from selling. Although other countries also have restrictions, but there are not many restrictions, and there are not many such countries.

They are not the Freedom Federation, they don't want to have too much trouble with Fan Xing.

There are more than 200 countries and regions in the world, and most countries and regions have no restrictions.

It's just that some countries are shouting too loudly, making people think that there are only a few countries in the world.

So with the technical support of practical technology, Fanxing's mobile phone manufacturers began to attack the international market in an all-round way, grabbing many markets that originally belonged to the three-pointed star and Ping Anguo.

Faced with such a situation, the three-pointed star and Ping Anguo could only be overwhelmed with coping, and even resorted to a long-unused "price reduction strategy" to keep the market... slowly draining.

There is no way, with the help of core technology, Fanxing's friends and merchants are too fierce, and they can't keep the market at all. They can only slow down the market loss, so that they can have some buffers, so that they can find more advanced technology or more A good way to regain the market.

However, Ping Anguo has not achieved much results, because their new product output has been constrained by chip output, and they cannot let go of production at all.

The products of the previous generation were ignored under the impact of endless new products from star-studded friends, so it was quite uncomfortable.

Now it can only maintain some advantages in desktops and laptops.

Practical Technology, as the "culprit", did not release a new mobile phone at this year's spring conference, but its new products still shocked the world.

That is the Stellar 3 chip at the 400nm level!

And unlike the silicon-based 3nm chip developed by Ping An Guo, it is carbon-based.

Currently, the device units that make up modern electronic information technology integrated circuit chips are almost entirely composed of silicon-based transistors, but their inherent shortcomings are speed and heat dissipation.

Theoretically, the faster the chip, the greater the heat generation and the more energy consumption. To solve these problems, the only way to solve these problems is to continuously improve the processing technology of traditional chips to shorten the distance of electron transmission.

In this regard, Ping An Guoai series chips are relatively good, but if the heat dissipation of the machine itself is not good, it will also turn into a fire dragon in minutes.

However, Gaoteng's Kuanglong series chips do not have good heat dissipation. Even if the machine provides a large number of heat dissipation modules, no one can shake its "flame dragon" name.

Nowadays, chip manufacturing has almost reached the limit of Moore's Law, especially when it is difficult to produce chips around 3 nanometers.

Ping An Guo knows this better than anyone else.

In fact... everyone knows it too.

If everyone believed in its various interfaces at the beginning, then as time goes by, everyone knows that their 3nm chips are difficult to produce.

In fact, people have done chip tests of other materials very early and found that carbon-based materials are very good.

Compared with silicon-based chips, carbon-based chips are superior in properties such as hardness, electrical conductivity, and thermal conductivity.

Carbon-based chips can be said to be the chips with the best thermal and electrical conductivity, the strongest strength, and the lightest weight. Its performance is more than 10 times higher than that of traditional chips, enabling faster data transmission and lower power consumption.

There are two directions for carbon-based chips, one is carbon nanotube chips, and the other is graphene chips.

Carbon nanotubes aside, graphene is definitely the best material. Compared with silicon, graphene is the thinnest nanomaterial with a thickness of only 0.335nm. It is also hard enough and is 200 times stronger than steel.

At the same time, the electron migration speed in graphene is 10 times that of silicon materials. The main frequency of graphene chips can theoretically reach 300GHz, while the heat dissipation and power consumption are much lower than silicon-based chips.

In the past, many breakthroughs have been made in related technologies. For example, a university has made a breakthrough in the direction of carbon nanotubes and has developed a monolithic photoelectric integrated chip.

The Academy of Sciences team has also produced an 8-inch graphene wafer, and the graphene chip made by it can reduce the electromagnetic delay time by 1000 times.

This also means that the signal processing time of graphene chips can be shortened by 1000 times, which can make electronic components more efficient in signal transmission and processing.

Huatuan has also won many patents for graphene transistors. According to the brief introduction of related patent applications provided, the patents it applied for relate to semiconductor-related fields.

It's just that various technologies have made breakthroughs, but... how to obtain a large amount of graphene is indeed a problem.

This problem has been solved by practical technology.

When practical technology was just able to produce graphene on a large scale, people thought about the problem of graphene chips, but they didn't expect practical technology to be produced so quickly.

The carbon-based Stellar 400 chip adopts 3-nanometer manufacturing technology. As the name suggests, it can indeed run 400 points, which is directly twice the score of the previous generation Stellar 300. It is as powerful as the full-blooded second-generation intelligent fusion processor. !
After all, the fusion processor will take up more space, while the Stellar 400 with the same running score is much smaller, consumes less power, and has better heat dissipation.

As soon as this graphene 3nm chip comes out, it will directly kill the silicon-based 3nm of Ping An Guo. After all, people have a running score of 400 and Ping An Guo 250.

And this time it is not a fusion chip, it is a conventional mobile SOC chip like Ai 16, and there is nothing to refute at all.

In this way, March passed quickly.

And come April, the world's focus on the stars is getting more intense.

Without him, who would have made Fanxing want to test fly mankind's first real aerospace plane.

Although people use mobile phones every day, the starry sky... has always been the yearning of human beings.

There is the future of mankind.

If you want to get close to the future, the aerospace plane is a very useful means of transportation.
