Nano silver metal mesh has the advantages of flexibility and low cost. Apple's adoption of this technology will be beneficial to the promotion of the technology and market applications. How much do you know about nanosilver metal mesh technology? Electronic enthusiasts come together for you.
The pattern of the touch industry
The rapid development of portable intelligent devices has led to the rapid growth of related industries such as touch. However, due to the low barriers to entry, the influx of capital, the rise of industry and the shrinking of profits, the competition in the touch industry in 2013 is very fierce. The small touch industry has already left the market. According to NPDDisplaySearch, although the overall touch market will maintain its growth momentum in 2014, the touch market will continue the industry consolidation pattern, including the comprehensive factors such as scale, technology and customer layout. There will be opportunities to expand their territory in the new round of industry reshuffle, and industry competition will intensify.
According to NPDDisplaySearch's estimates, the global mobile phone market shipments in 2014 will be nearly 1.75 billion in 2013, and will grow to nearly 1.87 billion in 2014, of which smartphone shipments grew from 960 million in 2013 to nearly 1.2 billion in 2014. Support, rapid progress; and tablet shipments also maintained rapid growth, from 250 million in 2013 to nearly 320 million in 2014. Benefiting from this, the overall touch module shipments will also maintain growth momentum in 2014, from nearly 1.75 billion in 2013 to 1.87 billion in 2014.
However, with the increase in the penetration rate of smartphones and tablets, the two have gradually entered the stage of product replacement, and the growth rate of shipments will be significantly slowed down. The growth rate of smartphone shipments in 2014 is expected to decrease from 38% in 2013 to 24%; while tablet shipment growth is 63% in 2013 and 26% in 2014. The growth rate of the portable intelligent equipment market will slow down, which will further intensify the competition in the relevant industry chain. Although the growth rate of the portable intelligent device terminal market is slowing down, in order to meet the needs of the replacement machine, the brand industry can only introduce products with higher price performance ratio to attract consumers. Therefore, the touch industry with more comprehensive strengths in terms of scale, technology and industrial chain will be more favored by the brand. It has a direct impact on the development of the touch industry; mobile phone brand operators will prefer the touch industry with more production scale and product technology under the consideration of stable product supply and brand effect.
In 2014, NPDDisplaySearch believes that the touch industry will continue its diversified development trend. Taking mobile phones as an example, the GFF touch architecture will adhere to the mobile phone touch mode due to its comprehensive advantages in product weight, thickness, price and supply chain. The group's shipments were the first, while the on-cell and in-cell touch architectures benefited from Samsung's and Apple's high-end model shipments while maintaining market share.
In addition, after the pre-preparation, the panel makers have the opportunity to re-energize, especially the LCD-based single-layer multi-point on-cell products have the opportunity to scale production in 2014 and promote the on-cell touch architecture shipment. The proportion of the panel is increased. Chinese panel makers such as Tianma's 4.5-inch FWVGA products and 5-inch 720HD products, BOE 4.5-inch qHD products and 5-inch 720HD products all have on-cell layout.
Mobile phone touch module shipment ratio of different technologies
The touch panel industry continues to accelerate in technology, from the original G/G double glazing to monolithic glass (including OGS, Touch on Lens, In-cell, On-cell, etc.), while thin film technology (G1F or G) The application of /F/F) has also attracted attention, and the field of touch technology has presented many mainstream situations. At present, touch panels are mainly used in devices with small screen sizes such as smart phones and tablet computers, and touch panels are also being adopted with devices such as all-in-one computers and large-sized notebook computers. The larger the screen size, the larger the amount of processing data required, and the higher the demand for impedance values, and the Metal Mesh solution that is ideal for large-screen touch screens is rapidly evolving.
What are the technical advantages of Metal-mesh?
OGS's monolithic glass touch technology solution is in the ascendant, and the new generation of touch technology - Metal Mesh (generally called metal mesh, metal network) has quietly formed. Not only Taiwan's touch panel makers Yanghua and the interface are actively investing in Metal Mesh touch technology research. China's Shenzhen Oufeiguang Metal Mesh touch panel products have been officially mass-produced and will be used in touch notebook computers.
The existing touch conductive materials are not suitable for large-size screens, because the larger the screen size, the larger the amount of processing data required, and the requirement for the impedance value is also increased. When the size is as large as 14 inches or more, ITO Restricted use, alternative materials such as Metal Mesh, nano-silver, carbon nanotubes, graphene, etc. are valued, among which Metal Mesh and nano silver wire are more mature, and it is also the most promising alternative material for mass production. .
Metal Mesh has excellent electrical conductivity and can achieve large-scale breakthrough of on-cell single-layer and multi-point. Metal Mesh touch technology is considered to have the opportunity to become one of the mainstream touch technologies for large-size applications. In the market, the transparent conductive film (TCF), which replaces ITO, has been hot recently. At present, ITO substitute materials are the most “close†commercialization schemes with nano silver wire (Ag NW) and Metal Mesh. If you can replace the traditional ITO conductive layer with Metal-mesh (metal network), which can make the resistance lower and the conductive layer thinner, Metal-mesh technology is expected to further strengthen the cost performance advantage of Film touch screen.

Halogen tube is a sealed light-emitting tube, filled with halogen element inert gas, the middle of the tungsten wire white, black two (due to the cost of white tungsten wire is much higher than the black tungsten wire, so the market is not universal ). Halogen tube with high thermal efficiency, heating is not oxidation, long life and other advantages, and some models also attached to the timing, rotation, humidification and other functions. Halogen tube heater is to rely on luminous heat dissipation, the general use of 2 to 3 halogen tube for the heat source, the power consumption of 900 ~ 1200W or so, more suitable for the area of about 12 square meters of the room, some of the more advanced products with automatic Power, automatic shaking his head and other functions, simple and practical design.
