[0040] It should be noted here that: the indium tin oxide of the inner shielding layer 2 is used to enhance the electric field of the active cable during transmission, thereby increasing the effective transmission distance of the active cable. At the same time, the excellent thermal insulation of the micron-level indium tin oxide film can ensure that the active cable can stably maintain its performance under extreme temperatures. The active cable with the inner shielding layer 2 made of indium tin oxide can be used in the fields of chassis distribution connection and external field wiring layout; the indium tin oxide film of the active cable is a degenerate semiconductor, and its carrier concentration measured in a laboratory environment reaches 10 20 cm -3 .

At the same time, the carriers of this degenerate semiconductor basically do not change with temperature. Its electronic properties depend on electron mobility, and the electron mobility of indium tin oxide is determined by the material itself.

[0049] It should be noted here that indium oxide serves as the basic framework of the material to establish a stable crystal structure and basic electronic properties, and tin oxide is doped to improve the electrical conductivity of the material. Since the surface of indium tin oxide has abundant chemical bonds, it is conducive to combining with the interface of metal and other media, so no complicated chemical process is required for treatment. Therefore, through the design of the vacuum chamber 8, an indium oxide crucible 10 and a tin oxide crucible 9 are set in the vacuum chamber 8 to use a vacuum evaporation method. Compared with other physical vapor deposition methods, this method has the advantages of simple film forming method, high film purity and density, unique film structure and performance, etc., and can evaporate a variety of different substances at the same time, which is suitable for the evaporation of mixed indium tin oxide films.
[0050] Mounting holes are respectively provided on both sides of the upper end of the housing 7 , each mounting hole is arranged opposite to a rotating shaft clamp 14 , and a sealing ring is arranged in each mounting hole.

[0053] Step S1, cleaning and polishing, using deionized water to clean and polish the selected inner conductor 1;
[0054] Step S2, placing the inner conductor 1 processed in step S1 into the vacuum chamber 8, and installing the two ends of the inner conductor 1 into the rotating shaft clamp 14 through the sealing rings in the mounting holes respectively, and the rotating shaft clamp 14 can drive the inner conductor 1 to rotate 180°;
[0055] Step S3, tin oxide is loaded into the tin oxide crucible 9, and indium oxide is loaded into the indium oxide crucible 10, and both the tin oxide crucible 9 and the indium oxide crucible 10 are connected to an external power supply, and the evaporation rates of the tin oxide crucible 9 and the indium oxide crucible 10 are controlled to reach 1:9 respectively, so as to meet the composition requirements for forming an indium tin oxide film layer;
[0056] Step S4, perform vacuum evaporation operation, turn on the external power supply, the air pressure environment in the vacuum chamber 8 is about 1*10-4Pa, and the evaporation temperature is controlled according to the tin oxide crucible 9 and the indium oxide crucible 10, for example, the evaporation temperature in the tin oxide crucible 9 can be set at 1900°C, and the evaporation temperature in the indium oxide crucible 10 is set at about 2100°C. Considering the uniform deposition and the mean free path of the particles, the height of the movable baffle 11 from the tin oxide crucible 9 and the indium oxide crucible 10 is guaranteed to be about 40cm. The proportion of indium oxide and tin oxide in the inner shielding layer 2 of indium tin oxide is controlled by the steam flow and the position of the movable baffle 11, and the thickness range of the inner shielding layer 2 is 0.5um~1um;

[0059] Step S7, cutting and sampling the inner shielding layer 2 obtained in step S6, performing physical characterization by scanning electron microscopy, and measuring the thickness of the indium tin oxide film layer. If the thickness requirement is met, subsequent processing operations of the insulating layer 3, the outer shielding layer group 4, the drain wire 6 and the sheath layer 5 can be performed.
[0060] The processing steps of the subsequent insulating layer 3, the outer shielding layer group 4 and the sheath layer 5 after the inner shielding layer 2 is prepared in the present invention are as follows:
[0061] Processing of the insulating layer 3: Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is a non-crystalline material, and is in a viscous flow state during insulation processing. At this time, the temperature of PVC is only 160℃~180℃, while the melting temperature of indium tin oxide is thousands of degrees and its surface chemical bonds and metal bonding are excellent, so there is no need to worry that the indium tin oxide film will be damaged during the production of the insulating layer 3.

[0062] Processing of the outer shielding layer 41: Copper plating is performed on the outside of the PVC insulating layer 3. The outer shielding layer 41 is manufactured by plastic electroplating, and the thickness of the electroplated copper is controlled within 0.36 mm.

In addition, its material is soft and has good conductivity. Tinned copper wire has a long service life under weak current conditions. A tinned copper wire is set in the middle of the copper outer shielding layer 41 along the direction of conductor transmission extension as the drain wire 6. The drain wire 6 is located between the two conductors;
[0064] The production process of tinned copper wire is as follows: select copper wire with a diameter of 0.3mm to 0.5mm and a smooth and round surface; then anneal it, and the annealing temperature is set at about 500°C; the annealed copper wire is cleaned in an environment with a pH value of about 1.2 to ensure the adhesion of the tin layer and the copper wire; then put the copper wire into a tin furnace for calcination, cool it after tinning; then add guide shaft oil to prevent the generation of tin ash; finally, pull the tinned copper wire to a drain wire 6 with a diameter of 0.3mm to 0.5mm.
[0065] Processing of the wire pair shielding layer 42: A wire pair shielding layer 42 is arranged outside the drain wire 6. The material used for the wire pair shielding layer 42 is the same as that of the drain wire 6, which is a tightly woven and stretched tinned round copper mesh. The outer diameter of the tinned copper mesh is in the range of 0.10mm to 0.20mm, and the weaving density of the tinned copper mesh is not less than 85%.
[0066] Processing of the sheath layer 5: A sheath layer 5 is arranged outside the line shielding layer 42. The sheath layer 5 is made of polyperfluoroethylene propylene copolymer (FEP) extruded outside the braided layer of the tinned round copper mesh to improve the high temperature resistance of the cable. The thickness of the sheath layer 5 ranges from 0.33mm to 0.68mm.
[0067] In summary, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0068] (1) The indium tin oxide shielding layer of the active cable can effectively enhance the local electric field of the active cable during the transmission process, effectively ensure the strength of the active cable transmission, thereby being able to transmit electromagnetic signals over a longer distance and provide a good thermal insulation environment, which can meet the layout efficiency and functional requirements of the corresponding equipment and has good economic benefits and social value;

[0070] (3) In the preparation method of indium tin oxide active cable, since the surface of indium tin oxide has abundant chemical bonds, it is conducive to combining with the interface of metal and other media, so no complicated chemical process is required for treatment. Therefore, vacuum evaporation is used here. Compared with other physical vapor deposition methods, this method has the advantages of simple film formation method, high film purity and density, unique film structure and performance, etc., and can evaporate a variety of different substances at the same time, which is suitable for the evaporation of mixed indium tin oxide film.
