Abstract
Large research infrastructures constitute an important part of the national innovation system. In recent years, the Chinese government has greatly strengthened the support for the development of large research infrastructures, and expanded the support from the former “large scientific facilities” to “large research infrastructures”. In order to make important breakthroughs in scientific and technological frontiers and solve the strategic, basic and forward-looking technological problems in economic and social development and the security of the country, the Chinese government will invest in the construction of large facilities, including overall facilities, distributed facilities and research facilities integrated by many independent equipment systems, which provide necessary conditions required by the scientific and technological community and various sectors of the country to conduct scientific research and develop high technologies.
