The advent of touchscreen technology has revolutionized the way humans interact with electronic devices. In less than a few decades, it has grown from its humble beginnings to a prevalent mode of interaction in today's world.
It's hard to imagine what the world would be like without touchscreens.
Whether it is a smartphone, a tablet, or a variety of public information query systems, and even all aspects of our lives, touch screen technology has been deeply applied, providing a more intuitive and convenient way to operate.
It breaks the traditional human-computer interaction model and allows us to complete complex operations with simple gestures.
The touch screen brings humans closer to technology, acting as a faithful messenger to seamlessly communicate our will to the machine. If computers have dramatically increased human computing power, touchscreens have unleashed human creative potential.
It will continue to lead technological innovation and continue to improve people's lives.
The emergence of OGS technology has greatly promoted the development of touch screens. Compared with the earlier design of multi-layer structures, it realizes a single-layer glass solution, and realizes touch functions by adding conductive films, electrodes, etc. to the single-layer glass.
This technological breakthrough greatly simplifies the production process of touch screens and reduces costs. At the same time, the single-layer glass structure also brings the advantages of light and thin, high transparency, and the color reproduction and optical effect are improved.
OGS technology detects touch position and force based on changes in capacitance, and the design of its electrode layout directly affects the accuracy of touch. Through the optimization of the electrode pattern, the recognition of gesture operations can be realized.
Although there are still some technical difficulties, such as poor recognition of the bezel area, OGS technology provides the possibility for the development of touch screens in the direction of lighter and thinner.
It laid the foundation for the widespread adoption of smartphones and tablets.
In the OGS capacitive touch screen, various chemical materials can be said to be the cornerstone of the normal operation of the whole system. They play their roles in different parts of the touchscreen.
For example, in terms of conductive layer, the traditional ITO has good conductivity and transparency, and has long been the most important conductive material for touch screens. However, with the development of technology, other materials such as silver nanowires and conductive polymers have also been applied to improve the flexibility of the conductive layer.
Equally important is the insulation, which prevents false triggering by isolating the conductive layer. Silicon oxide and silicon nitride are common insulating material choices, guaranteeing accurate detection of capacitance distribution and variation.
Substrate materials need to provide mechanical support and guarantee optical properties, both glass and plastic. With the rise of flexible screens, plastic substrates have also been applied.
In addition, the OGS touch screen needs to be fixed with fillers and adhesives to ensure a strong bond between the layers. The optical properties of these materials have a direct impact on the display.
Together, these different chemistries form the basis of the OGS touchscreen, and the synergy between them is a necessary condition for precise and efficient touch.
This also makes material innovation and optimization a core part of R&D.
Researchers face a variety of challenges in developing high-performance OGS touch screen chemistries.
The first is the complexity of the material itself. The touch screen has very high requirements for materials, not only to have good conductivity and transparency, but also to take into account factors such as flexibility and durability.
There is often a contradiction between the different performances, and a balance needs to be struck in all aspects.
The second is the difficulty of the material preparation technology. The preparation of many novel materials, such as nanomaterials, requires sophisticated equipment and complex processes, which increases cost pressures.
Expertise is also required for the assembly and testing of materials.
Finally, the sustainability of R&D is also a major challenge. Environmentally friendly production and handling of new materials, as well as sustainable sourcing of raw materials, also need to be considered.
This requires a comprehensive assessment of the entire life cycle of the material.
It is precisely because of these difficulties that the research and development of new touch screen materials requires the cooperation of various disciplines and a lot of manpower and material resources. But researchers remain confident that advances in science and technology will overcome these challenges.
The research and development of new chemical materials is of great significance for whether OGS touch screen technology can make further breakthroughs and achieve broader applications.
At present, OGS touch screens have been widely used, but if they want to expand to more fields, such as flexible screens and wearable devices, they need the support of new materials.
Traditional rigid materials are no longer able to meet these new demands.
Therefore, it is imperative to develop new conductive layer materials with high conductivity, high transparency and flexibility. This requires the design and preparation of materials at the molecular and nanoscale.
Similarly, flexible insulating layers and substrate materials need to be developed.
The new material will not only improve performance, but also give more possibilities to the OGS touch screen. We can imagine the future of ultra-thin touchscreens that can be folded, or "electronic skins" that can be bent into any shape.
All of this depends on continuous innovation in chemical materials.
Of course, there is still a long way to go to achieve this goal. It requires close collaboration between interdisciplinary teams and a significant investment of R&D resources. However, bringing a more convenient and richer interactive experience to human beings is a direction worthy of our efforts.
I believe that with the unremitting efforts of scientific and technological workers, new technological innovation is just around the corner.
In the R&D competition of OGS touch screen core materials, the Chinese scientific research team also showed its strength. Through years of hard work, Chinese scholars have accumulated rich experience in R&D in this field and have made significant progress.
For example, a team from a research institute has made a breakthrough in a new transparent conductive material that combines excellent electrical conductivity and optical properties.
After trial and error, they developed a low-cost, high-stability preparation process, and obtained the core patent of the material. This provides a guarantee for China's independent R&D capabilities in this field.
In addition, some enterprise research institutes are also conducting research on flexible substrates for touch screens. Not only have they developed innovative plastic substrates, but they have also developed new light-curing adhesives that enable strong bonding of the various layers of the material.
This laid the foundation for the later application of flexible touch screens.
It can be said that after continuous investment in scientific research, China has broken through certain technical barriers in this key technology field and mastered some core patents and materials.
This not only improves the performance of domestic touch screens, but also provides technical support for the rise of Chinese brands.
Although there is still a certain gap between the world's leading level, the Chinese research team is gradually catching up with the international advanced level through hard work and innovation. I believe that they will be able to create more scientific and technological achievements for the benefit of society.
Although the Chinese team has made significant progress in the research and development of OGS touch screen materials, there are also various doubts about it.
Some experts pointed out that China's R&D investment in this field is still insufficient, and there are few truly original achievements, most of which are imitations and improvements of foreign technologies.
Chinese companies have a very limited share of control over core patents.
In addition, there are also views that the materials and processes developed in China are not mature enough, the stability and reliability of products need to be tested, and there is still a big gap between them and practical applications.
Chinese researchers remain modest and cautious in this regard. They recognize that China started late and that there is still a big gap to be filled. China needs to work harder on the originality of material design and increase investment in key areas.
At the same time, they also believe that as long as they persevere, pioneer and innovate, China is fully capable of reaching the world's advanced level in this field. China's huge human resources and market demand will also provide a strong impetus for R&D.
Looking to the future, China will aim at the world's frontier of science and technology and increase investment in original research on the basis of absorbing successful foreign experience. I firmly believe that through the unremitting efforts of scientific researchers, China will definitely be able to make new major breakthroughs in OGS touch screen technology.
