Tsinghua university center laboratory of materials science and engineering is one of the earliest public open laboratory platforms in tsinghua university. The above image is the laboratory's high-precision research equipment. The right image is a laboratory worker checking the instrument. General office of the central committee of the communist party and the state council general office recently issued the deepening the reform of science and technology system implementation plan ", put forward the establishment of national major scientific research infrastructure and open large scientific instruments sharing system and run the subsidy mechanism. In recent years, China's scientific research facilities and instruments have been increasing in size, but the idle waste of research facilities is more serious due to the departmentalization, unity and individualization. Since the state council issued "on major national scientific research infrastructure and large scientific instruments open to the public opinions" (hereinafter referred to as "opinions") for nine months, according to the survey, which accounts for a third number of research institutes and universities open to the public the scientific research facilities and equipment. During the opening process of scientific research instruments in China, what experiences have been accumulated, what problems have been encountered, and how to "bloom" for innovation? Economic daily reporter conducted the research interview. A kind of multi-dimensional open sharing Instruments open contain equipment maintenance, professional management, personnel training, technical innovation and promotion and so on several levels, is not a simple "open" one night 12 o 'clock, the rain outside. The red cloud was awakened by frequent "mysterious" texts. She quickly got up from her bed and rushed to the laboratory of the center for materials science and engineering at tsinghua university. It turned out that, in order to keep track of the operation of the instrument, the manager specialized in the installation of a wireless communication device on the instrument. As long as the compressor is off work, it will be sent to her immediately. "Some devices require extremely low temperature and other special internal conditions," yu told reporters. "if there is a power outage and other accidents, the internal state will be affected." If you don't deal with it in time, it may take more than a week to get back to normal. As a result, she was particularly sensitive to text messages and was "summoned" to the lab late at night. The center laboratory of materials science and engineering research institute of tsinghua university was founded in the 1980s. It is one of the earliest public open laboratory platforms in tsinghua university. Currently, it has about 60 million yuan worth of instruments and equipment in the yifu technical science building. The equipment is imported from abroad and is subject to technical monopoly. Equipment maintenance must be brought to engineers from foreign companies. The cost is usually started from an engineer and the cost is enormous. Xu xiaoming, jiang crane and yu hongyun are both master's degrees in materials related majors, and each person is responsible for different kinds of equipment. These "dainty" instruments show a steady and good working state due to professional management, seldom "tantrums", which greatly reduce maintenance costs. The rigorous mechanism also allows most of the equipment to be opened to the public quickly after 1 week. "Our users go north to Harbin, south to fujian, and even Singapore." Jiang He said. The reporter turned over a register and saw the information of the people who came to check it every day. From June to September this year alone, dozens of pages are filled, with no fewer than 20 pages per page. Xie qian of Beijing northern micro electronic base equipment technology research center said they have been testing the platform for a year or two. "Take the scanning electron microscope for millions of dollars. We can't buy a project for it. Using this platform for testing can be solved by only a few hundred dollars or even 100 yuan. They have high levels of management, good reliability and reasonable fees. Xie Qian said. In order to improve the quality of instrument and equipment, the lab management team constantly innovates. They have been developing data analytics software platforms for years, and have turned the complex and complex device management interface into a concise and clear Chinese interface for more people to operate. "It's like saying you weigh, you know how much it is." "Xu said. The new system is not only more concise, but also can carry out more in-depth data analysis. This innovation saves a lot of money for LABS, too, because it costs tens of thousands of dollars to buy similar software abroad. Over the course of more than 30 years of open sharing, the lab has accumulated new technologies and experiences that are enough to produce a few books. They have upgraded their service life by upgrading some imported equipment through technological innovation. These techniques have now been extended to dozens of units in the country. Xu xiaoming and other teachers also brought these techniques to experimental teaching and training, and the people who came to listen were often packed with stairs and classrooms. A nearly half a century of exploration Some colleges institutes in our country on equipment open after years of exploration, has now been incorporated into the open service, play a leading role of science and technology demonstration base the relevant person in charge of research department, told reporters that "we jointly with the ministry of finance, the national development and reform commission, the ministry of education, ministry of agriculture, Chinese academy of sciences and other relevant departments, formulated the" about the implementation of the < comments > pilot work plan, choose the tsinghua university and other 10 scientific research institutes and universities, Beijing zhongguancun science and technology zone of the three and seven provinces city such as Beijing first open pilot conducted scientific research facilities and equipment, to establish the open mode of government guidance and market leading ". A red brick wall of the old building in tsinghua university, tsinghua university laboratory and equipment is secretary-general of eastern part, told reporters on the open sharing of instruments, tsinghua university since the 1970 s. Then, as a result of university research funding is limited, large equipment and run maintenance cost, in support of scientific research, improve equipment utilization, tsinghua university set up funds analysis and test, used to aid facility use of teachers. "From the beginning of the school to 80 percent, the teacher 20 percent, to later the school gives a small head, the teacher gives a big head. The total cost of school support has been increasing and it has been a good policy guide. This model is used by many domestic universities." "Said wu xiaofeng. Later, tsinghua has supported the construction of 10 university-level public platforms based on the successful construction of the analysis center. The equipment with strong universality is built on the public platform as far as possible. The specialized equipment is mainly in the corresponding departments and research houses. In the eyes of wu xiaofeng, this kind of university-level sharing platform has multiple meanings: saving resources, avoiding repurchase of equipment and increasing the utilization rate of funds; After centralized management, the platform will have special maintenance, improve the quality of the equipment and extend the life of the equipment. A new communication environment is set up to promote cross-communication between different users. To provide each teacher and his research team with the opportunity to use instruments and equipment to promote the training and scientific research of the school. "For more than a year, tsinghua is trying to develop a management service system for instruments and equipment. This is equivalent to building a virtual platform on the basis of the physical platform to facilitate users to search the required equipment through the network system. After the user has made an appointment online, the card will be used, and the system will automatically deduct the fee after using it. "Said wu xiaofeng. This method further integrates the campus equipment resources, and also frees users from the trivial tasks of calling appointments, finding people, invoicing, paying and reimbursements. Xiao-feng wu told reporters, "we want to through the network platform is the inclusion of the large equipment of as much as possible in the open service system, so the utilization rate of each unit itself is not very high equipment should pay attention to open sharing. If the equipment and equipment owned by each unit is not open, other users will not use it, which will inevitably lead to repeated purchases. To do this work with more colleges and universities will definitely increase the use of equipment. It is understood that tsinghua university is the lead unit of the national development and reform commission's high school equipment and quality resource sharing system (CERS). Currently, the CERS project has integrated more than 10,000 instruments and equipment in more than 60 colleges and universities on the network platform, worth more than 10 billion RMB. A need to meet the challenge National research institutes and university research facilities and instruments currently opening rate of 45%, still faces challenges in many aspects from the system of talents, According to the ministry of science and technology, ministry of finance to organize the implementation of the basic condition of science and technology resources survey, by the end of 2014, has mastered the original value of 500000 yuan of above 55000 units (sets), the detailed information of the equipment total value of 78 billion yuan. The opening rate of research facilities and instruments of national research institutes and universities is 45%. At present, the department of education of the ministry of education has formulated various scientific research facilities and instruments open management measures in total more than 80. After many years of exploration, wu xiaofeng has such a strong feeling: "open sharing must have a system to support. The better the top-level design, the more conducive to the open sharing of instruments and equipment. For the use of the meter, there must be a system of pricing. According to the principle of "operation cost compensation and non-profit", tsinghua university has set up a special equipment equipment open sharing charging standard audit committee. Before an instrument is open, it is important to apply for an offer, and then determine the final charging standard by examining and verifying it. In recent years, the hardware condition of equipment and equipment in Chinese universities has been developing rapidly, but the high level of experimental technicians is still relatively lacking, which restricts the open and Shared quality of instruments and equipment. Xiao-feng wu said: "in order to solve this problem, CERS project on the basis of classifying large equipment, selected the demonstration unit, the demonstration unit is responsible for the organization technical personnel and training for brothers college." Wu xiaofeng believes that the state should further improve the specific policies of the open and sharing of scientific instruments and equipment, and further enhance the policy synergy. "It is hoped that some public technical conditions will be constructed from the national level to reduce the cost of research and purchase of equipment to avoid duplication of purchase. Taiwan is a valuable instrument center in universities, which can be used by university professors and external researchers. "Said wu xiaofeng. "As a company, we especially want to have more convenient online platforms to search for equipment resources, rather than to bump into and find out." Xie Qian said. The head of the basic research division of the ministry of science and technology said that they will continue to accelerate the construction of the national network management platform, which will be established by the end of 2015. In 2016, the guidance management unit established the online service platform of this unit according to the unified standards and norms, and completed the docking of the online service platform of the management unit and the national network platform. The post-subsidy mechanism is the core content of the opinion, which can fully mobilize the initiative of research facilities and instrument management units to open up to the society. "The ministry of science and technology has formed a preliminary index system of open and Shared evaluation with the ministry of finance," said the head of the basic research division of the ministry of science and technology. Next, the ministry of science and technology will work closely with the ministry of finance to combine the pilot work with the effective link between the pilot unit and the post-subsidy, and jointly promote the implementation of the post-subsidy mechanism.
