A few days ago, the reporter learned from the Ministry of Science and Technology that HBDX Group led the DX Optoelectronics and other units to complete the project “Development and Industrialization of Key Technologies and Equipment for Highly Uniform Ultra-Clean Surface Glass Substrates for Photoelectric Display”.
It is understood that the liquid crystal glass substrate is a key component of terminals such as tablet computers and mobile phones. It is located at the top of the industrial chain, with high technical thresholds and difficult manufacturing. Its important status is known as the “cornerstone” of the optoelectronic display industry. However, its technology and market have been highly blocked and monopolized by US and Japanese companies for a long time, severely restricting the healthy and safe development of China’s display industry.
The first finisher of the project, Li Qing, president and chief engineer of HBDX Group, said that the award was an inspiration to the independent innovation of Chinese enterprises, and an affirmation of the company’s scientific and technological personnel’s long-term promotion of China’s optoelectronic display glass technology and industrial development.
In recent years, China has implemented an innovation-driven development strategy. Governments at all levels have vigorously created a fair and inclusive environment for innovation and entrepreneurship. They have used more market-based methods to promote corporate innovation and achieved fruitful results.
She introduced that the project “Development and industrialization of key technologies and equipment for high uniform ultra-clear surface glass substrates for optoelectronic displays” is a flat panel display technology that meets the needs of the new generation of information technology. After more than 10 years of research, it has been overcome in one fell swoop.
The three major technical difficulties in producing high-quality glass substrates are high uniformity, ultra-clean surfaces, and strong physical and chemical properties. This has made China’s glass substrate industry from scratch, weak to strong, and products have been widely purchased by mainstream panel companies such as BOE. Applied to Huawei, Apple, Xiaomi, Lenovo and other companies, the price of LCD TVs in China has been reduced from more than 10,000 yuan to 3,000 yuan, which has also benefited the general public.
It is understood that the National Science and Technology Awards 2018 selected a total of 278 projects, including 173 “National Science and Technology Progress Awards”, 2 special awards, 23 first prizes (3 innovation prizes, 11 general projects), and 2nd prizes. 148 awards.
