Uzwile i-Corning Gorilla Glass kaningi. Okuzwa lokhu, uma uthenga ifoni noma izimemezelo zefoni, empeleni kuwubuchwepheshe bokuvikela isikrini. I-Gorilla Glass iwuhlobo lwengilazi olwakhiwe futhi lwakhiwe ngabakwa-Corning olwakhelwe ukuba lube lula futhi lumelane nomonakalo. Iningi lama-smartphones anamuhla analobu buchwepheshe. Ivikela isibuko sedivayisi ekuconseni okungazelelwe namaqhuqhuva, ngaleyo ndlela ikugcinele izindleko zokulungisa isikrini.
Iyini i-Corning Gorilla Glass?
Ithuthukiswe yi-Corning Inc., i-Gorilla Glass iyingilazi eyenziwe ngento ebizwa ngokuthi i-alkali-aluminosilicate, eyakhiwe ngokuhlanganisa i-aluminium, i-silicon, nomoya-mpilo ndawonye. Ukudalwa kwe-Gorila Glass kuqale ekuqaleni kuka-2005. Injongo yakho ukuvikela izikrini zama-smartphones kanye namadivayisi afanayo kusukela ekuklwebheni kanye nemithelela emaphakathi ukuya-kubi. Noma kunjalo, nakuba amafoni ane-Corning Gorilla Glass amelana kakhulu nokuklwebheka nokuphuka, awanakunqamuka. Ngakho-ke ungakhohlwa ukuvikela ifoni yakho ekuthuthumeleni.
Lobu buchwepheshe buthuthuke kancane kusukela ngo-2005 - 2006. Izinguqulo ezihlukene zethulwa futhi zasetshenziswa kumadivayisi amaningi. Singabala umehluko wokuthuthukiswa kanye nenguqulo yobuchwepheshe be-Gorilla Glass kuwo wonke umlando ngendlela elandelayo.
I-Corning Gorilla Glass 1 (2007)
Ubuchwepheshe bokuqala be-Gorilla Glass bakhiqizwa ngo-2005 futhi bakhishelwa abasebenzisi okokuqala ngqa emhlabeni, ngesizukulwane sokuqala i-iPhone (eyaziwa nangokuthi i-iPhone 2G) yethulwa ngo-2007. Ukwethulwa kwe-iPhone, eyamukelwa njengesiqalo senkathi entsha emhlabeni. imakethe yocingo, kanye nokwethulwa kwe-Gorilla Glass kubasebenzisi kanye nayo, kwakuyisiqalo esihle senkampani yaseCorning. Ngale ndlela, i-Corning Gorilla Glass yasetshenziswa kumadivayisi ayizigidi ezingama-200 kanye nama-20% emakethe yezingcingo zomhlaba kuze kube ngu-2010.
Ku-iPhone yokuqala enobuchwepheshe be-Gorilla Glass, isikrini sokuvikela sasiwugqinsi ngo-1.5 mm futhi sine-oleophobic coating enciphisa izigxivizo zeminwe nama-smudges. Ngaleso sikhathi, kwakungeyona i-iPhone kuphela, kodwa ngonyaka olandelayo, ubuchwepheshe be-Gorilla Glass babutholakala kumamodeli wedivayisi angu-250.
I-Corning Gorilla Glass 2 (2012)
U-Corning umemezele ukuthi ngo-2012, amadivaysi eselula angaphezu kwesigidigidi asebenzisa ubuchwepheshe bokuqala be-Gorilla Glass. Kwathi ngo-Okthoba 24, 2012, u-Corning wethula i-Gorilla Glass 2 e-CES (Umbukiso we-Consumer Electronics). Ngawo lowo nyaka, i-Gorilla Glass 2 yathunyelwa kumadivayisi ayizigidi ezingu-600.
Umehluko kowandulelayo wukuthi, ngoba mncane. Ngakho-ke, kuvumela abakhiqizi ukuthi bathuthukise amamodeli alula futhi amancanyana amafoni abo. Ezivivinyweni zaselabhorethri, i-Gorilla Glass 2 ikwazile ukumelana nezingcindezi ezifika ku-50 kg ngaphandle kokuqhekeka noma ukuphuka. Kokubili i-Google (LG) Nexus 4 ne-Samsung Galaxy S3 zifike zifakwe i-Gorilla Glass 2.
I-Corning Gorilla Glass 3 (2013)
I-Gorilla Glass 3 igqame ngokuqina kwayo kunokuzaca okugxilwe kukho enguqulweni yangaphambilini. Ukuze kukhunjulwe inguqulo yesithathu yobuchwepheshe babo, u-Corning uhlele ukuphinda kathathu ukumelana kwe-Gorilla Glass uma kuqhathaniswa nezinguqulo ezindala. I-Gorilla Glass 3 ikhishwe ku-CES 2013 futhi yeza ngamamodeli ahamba phambili angaleso sikhathi, njenge-Galaxy S4 ne-Moto X.
Inqubo entsha yokukhiqiza ku-Gorilla Glass inike amandla ingilazi ukuthi isebenzise ubuchwepheshe be-Natural Damage Resistance (NDR), obuvimbela ukuklwebheka okujulile. Ngokuka-Corning, i-Gorilla Glass 3 ivimbele ukufika kokungu-35% kokuklwebheka kwesikrini. Idizayini ye-Gorilla Glass 3 yayiwukusebenzisa kuka-Corning kokuqala kokumodela kwesikali se-athomu ngaphambi kokuthi okubalulekile kuncibilikiswe kumalebhu. Impahla imelana nokuklwebheka ngokuphindwe kathathu kunenguqulo yangaphambilini, inekhono elithuthukisiwe lokumelana nokuklwebheka okujulile okuvamise ukwenza ingilazi ibe buthaka. Futhi, kusho ukuthi i-Gorilla Glass yesizukulwane sesithathu ihlala isikhathi eside izikhathi ezi-3 kunesizukulwane sangaphambilini.
I-Corning Gorilla Glass 4 (2014)
Ekupheleni kuka-2014, i-Gorilla Glass 4 yamenyezelwa ngeminikelo yomonakalo engcono kanye nekhono lokwenziwa ngcono ngokusebenza okufanayo nokwandulelayo. I-Corning ithole ocwaningweni ukuthi u-70% wokulimala kwesikrini seselula ubangelwa ukwehla, ngakho waqala ukutshala imali ekuqiniseni ingilazi yayo.
Ngesikhathi sokukhiqizwa kwayo, ingilazi iqiniswa ngokungenisa ama-ion. Impahla incibilika cishe ku-400 °C (750 °F), ama-ion amakhulu athatha ivolumu eyengeziwe futhi ingilazi yokuqala iba namandla.
I-Gorilla Glass 4 yathuthukiswa ngokugxila embonweni wokumelana namaconsi. Ngokwezifundo zelebhu, inguqulo yesine ye-Gorilla Glass ibiqine ngokuphindwe kabili kunaleyo eyandulelayo. I-Samsung Galaxy Note 5 ne-Asus ZenFone 2 Laser zingamamodeli ambalwa eza ne-Gorilla Glass 4.
I-Corning Gorilla Glass 5 (2016)
Isizukulwane sesihlanu se-Gorilla Glass, i-Gorilla Glass 5, yaqala ukukhishwa nge-Samsung Galaxy Note 7 ngo-2016. Igxile ekunikezeni ukumelana okukhulu nakakhulu namaconsi futhi inikeze amandla aphindwe kane kunenguqulo yangaphambilini. I-Corning iphinde yembula ezivivinyweni zaselabhorethri ukuthi i-Gorilla Glass 5 ingamelana nokwehla ukusuka kubude obungamamitha angu-1.6.
U-Corning uphinde wathi nge-Gorilla Glass 5, imelana kakhulu nokuqhekeka ngisho noma ifoni iwiswe ezindaweni eziqine kakhulu. I-Gorilla Glass 5 isetshenziswe emikhiqizweni efana ne-Samsung Galaxy Note 20 ne-Xiaomi Mi 8 Series. Namuhla, ungabona i-Corning Gorilla Glass 5 kumadivayisi amaningi.
Futhi ngo-2016, i-Corning yamemezela umkhiqizo wayo wokuqala wezinto ezigqokwayo ezaziwa nge-Gorilla Glass SR+. I-Gorilla Glass SR+ 2016 esetshenziswe ne-Samsung Gear S3. I-Gorilla Glass nayo yakhanga imakethe yezimoto. IFord Motor Company imemezele ukuthi izosebenzisa izinto ezizosetshenziswa ngo-2016 kumawindi angaphambili nangemuva ezimoto zeFord GT. Ngenxa yalokho, u-2016 bekuwunyaka omatasa ku-Corning ne-Gorilla Glass 5.
I-Corning Gorilla Glass 6 (2018)
Eyethulwe ngoJulayi 2018, i-Gorilla Glass 6 ibe yisinyathelo esikhulu ukusuka kwezinye izinhlobo. Emcimbini wokwethulwa, u-Corning umemezele ukuthi ubeka okuhlukile ezindleleni ezintsha zokuhlola ezinzima. I-Gorilla Glass 6 ithi iqine ngokwanele ukuthi ingamelana namaconsi angu-15 alandelanayo ezindaweni eziqinile. Ilinganiselwe ukuthi iqine ngokuphindwe kabili njenge-Gorilla Glass 5.
Kanye ne-Gorilla Glass 6 ngo-2018, i-Corning iphinde yamemezela ukwethulwa kwe-Gorilla Glass DX/DX+. Lokhu okuhlukile kuklanyelwe ukusetshenziswa kuma-smartwatches nezilandeleli zokufaneleka. Lezi zibuko ezintsha zinezici eziphikisayo ezinikeza ukubonakala okungcono ngenkathi futhi zikhulisa ukumelana nokuklwebheka, ngokusho kuka-Corning.
I-Corning Gorilla Glass 6 iyatholakala kumadivayisi amaningi namuhla, njenge-POCO X3 Pro noma i-Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra. Futhi i-Gorilla Glass DX/DX+ iyatholakala ku-Galaxy Watch 4 nokuningi.
I-Corning Gorilla Glass Victus (2020)
Ngalo mkhiqizo, u-Corning waqala ukulahla i-nomenclature yezinombolo yamashumi eminyaka. NgoJulayi 2020, i-Corning yethula i-Gorilla Glass Victus njengokwehluka okuphelele kwama-smartphones, amathebulethi, amakhompyutha aphathekayo nezinto ezigqokekayo. Idivayisi yokuqala ezofika ne-Gorilla Glass Victus uchungechunge lwe-Xiaomi lwe-Mi 11 ne-Mi 11. Eminye imininingwane ye-Mi 11 iyatholakala lapha.
Ngokuka-Corning, ukuhlolwa kwelebhu kubonise ukuthi i-Gorilla Glass Victus inikeza isivikelo ekwehleni okusuka kubude obungamamitha angu-2 (ukuhlolwa ku-Gorilla Glass 6 kwenziwa imitha elingu-1). Iphinde inikeze ukumelana nokuklwejwa okuphindwe kabili kanye nokuvikela okuphindwe ka-4 kunemodeli yangaphambilini. I-Gorilla Glass Victus isetshenziswa nakumadivayisi amanje aphambili afana ne-Google Pixel 6 ne-Pixel 6 Pro.
Ngenxa yalokhu, u-Corning usanda kumemezela ukuthi weqe ibhendi yedivayisi eyizigidi eziyizinkulungwane eziyi-8. Lokhu kusho ukuthi cishe awekho amadivayisi asele namuhla angasebenzisi i-Corning Gorilla Glass. Iningi lezinhlobo zefoni likhetha i-Corning yobuchwepheshe bokuvikela isikrini. Uma ufuna idivayisi yakho ukuthi imelane nokuwa futhi ingaklwebheki kalula, qiniseka ukuthi ine-Gorilla Glass. Ukuze uthole olunye ulwazi, ungavakashela isayithi elisemthethweni le-Corning lapha.
