Problems solved by technology

In the existing technology, since the monitoring of electricity or charge needs to be carried out on the optical chip, and there is a certain change over time, it is impossible to accurately monitor the intensity of the electronegativity, so all the back-end processes can only be done on the silicon chip, including making After the color filter is finished, the quality of the electronegative material can be verified only after the function is tested.
This will make the test cycle of electronegative materials long, and the feedback of process adjustment will have obvious hysteresis. If there is a problem, it will waste a lot of silicon wafers and prolong the development cycle.
