Abstract: To reduce deterioration of non-volatile memory and write data at higher speed, writing data is stored in a ReRAM when a page utilization rate R is lower than a threshold Rth1 and/or the writing data is frequently-rewritten data. With an empty space Semp2 in the ReRAM being less than a threshold Sth (step S110), when the data in the ReRAM is infrequently-rewritten data and the page utilization rate R obtained if target data is stored in a flash memory 22 is equal to or higher than a threshold value Rth3 (steps S120 and S130), data of logical sectors contained in N logical page addresses stored in a transfer list is read from the ReRAM to be written to the flash memory (steps S140 to S160). These steps reduce deterioration of the flash memory and allow higher data writing.

Abstract: A conductive film includes a substrate, a first matrix layer, a first conductive layer, a second matrix layer, and a second conductive layer. The substrate includes a first surface and an oppositely arranged second surface. The first matrix layer is attached to the first surface. The first conductive layer is embedded in the first matrix layer. The second matrix layer is attached to a side of the first matrix layer away from the substrate. The second conductive layer is embedded in the second matrix layer. Due to the capacitor formed between the first conductive layer and the second conductive layer, it just needs to attach the conductive film to a glass panel when the conductive film is adopted to manufacture a touch screen, without bonding two pieces of conductive films.

Abstract: A conductive film includes a substrate, a first conductive layer, a matrix layer, and a second conductive layer. The substrate includes a first surface and an oppositely arranged second surface. The first conductive layer is embedded in the substrate. The matrix layer is set on the first surface of the substrate. The matrix layer is formed by solidified jelly coating. The second conductive layer embedded in the matrix layer. The second conductive layer is insulated from the first conductive layer. Due to the capacitor formed between the first conductive layer and the second conductive layer, it just needs to attach the conductive film to a glass panel when the conductive film is adopted to manufacture a touch screen, without bonding two pieces of conductive films. In addition, the matrix layer, formed by solidifying the jelly painted on the substrate, is with a much smaller thickness than the substrate. Therefore, the touch screen using the conductive film has a smaller thickness.

Abstract: A transparent conductive film includes a substrate defining a mesh-shaped groove, which forms a mesh; and a conductive layer formed by conductive material filled in the mesh. An edge line of the mesh-shaped grooves is a curve or a polyline which increases a contact area between the conductive material and an edge of the mesh-shaped groove. In the transparent conductive film, non-linear edge lines are used, therefore, for the conductive region with the same size, the area of edge of the conductive material in contact with the trench increases, and the friction is increased, which leads to a larger adhesion of the conductive material, and a stable performance of the transparent conductive film is guaranteed.
