In China, research on CVD diamond began in the mid-1980s. Professor Zou Guangtian of Jilin University was sponsored by the research team of the Jilin Provincial Science and Technology Commission in 1985 to start research on diamond film. In April 1987, the first domestic diamond film was prepared by hot filament low-pressure CVD.
China began to implement the National 863 Program in 1987, when the plan was divided into seven areas. Among them, diamond film research topics are listed in the field of new materials technology. In 1987 (seventh five-year project), four units including Jilin University, Institute of Artificial Crystals, Sichuan University and Beijing Institute of Technology undertook the research and development of diamond film by the 863 expert group. The implementation of the National 863 Program provides a good opportunity for the development of diamond film research in China. During the period of the Seventh Five-Year Plan, China's research on diamond film has made great progress and has attracted the attention of international counterparts. Since then, many units in China have started research on diamond film and set off the research heat of diamond film. During the Eighth Five-Year Plan (starting in 1991), the research on diamond film was promoted from research topic to research topic. At most, it was undertaken by 14 units. Professor Jin Zengsun from Jilin University was the subject of the topic. During this period, the assessment was carried out every year, and the implementation of the excavation was not carried out. If you did not do well, please come in and make the diamond film research in China develop rapidly. The research content and research level have been recognized by international counterparts. At that time, the Ministry of Science and Technology and the 863 expert group gave a high evaluation of the work on the research topic of diamond film, and believed that "the research has characteristics and is in line with the reality of China." During the Ninth Five-Year Plan period, the 863 expert group believed that the industrialization of diamond film should be considered. Therefore, it was undertaken by Jilin University, IOL and Beijing University of Science and Technology. The artificial crystal is responsible for the industrialization of diamond film cutters. Jilin University is responsible for the development of hot cathode methods and thermal applications. Beijing University of Science and Technology is responsible for the development of DC injection methods. During the fifteenth period, Jilin University continued to undertake the 863 project and deepen the applied research in electrical engineering.
During the period of the Seventh Five-Year Plan and the Eighth Five-Year Plan, the following units have undertaken research projects for the 863 Program: Jilin University, Institute of Artificial Crystals, Beijing Institute of Technology, Sichuan University, Beijing University of Science and Technology, Tianjin University of Technology, Zhengzhou Sanmao, Shanghai Jiaotong University, Hefei University of Technology, Zhengzhou University, Beijing Institute of Physics, Chengdu Tool Research Institute, Anhui Plasma Institute, China University of Science and Technology, Changchun Institute of Physics, Mudanjiang Optoelectronics Institute, Xi'an Jiaotong University, etc.

Sixth, CVD diamond production enterprises
After nearly 10 years of development, the domestic diamond has made great achievements in the preparation, application and industrialization. It has experienced the development from scratch, from small to large, and has a very broad market demand and development space. The main manufacturers are Beijing Xiboer Technology Development Co., Ltd., Beijing Tiandi Oriental Superhard Materials Co., Ltd., Hebei Presman Diamond Technology Co., Ltd., Shenzhen Leidi Technology Co., Ltd., Shanghai Dating Diamond Coating Co., Ltd., Changchun Bafang Diamond Technology Co., Ltd. etc. (This article is excerpted from "China's Superhard Materials Industry Fifty Years")

According to the type of sensor, the Touch Screen is roughly divided into infrared type, resistance type, surface acoustic wave type and Capacitive Touch Screen four kinds. The design of capacitive touch screen is reasonable, but the problem of image distortion is difficult to be solved.


Capacitive touch screen


The touch screen works by using the body's current induction process. A special transparent metal conductive substance is coated on the surface of the glass. When a conductive object touches the glass, it changes the capacitance of the contact, so as to detect the position of the touch. But touching a non-conductive object with a gloved hand or hand does not respond because of the addition of a more insulating medium.


Capacitive touch screen can sense light and fast touch, anti-scratch, not afraid of dust, water and dirt influence, suitable for harsh environment. However, capacitance varies with temperature, humidity or environmental electric field, so its stability is poor, low resolution and easy to drift.
