The technical means of the present application will be described below in detail.
Referring to fig. 1, the touch layer 100 includes 3 rows of first electrode sets 10 arranged in parallel along the X direction, and 3 rows of second electrode sets 20 arranged in parallel along the Y direction. Any one of the first electrode groups 10 includes 4 first electrodes 11 arranged in the Y direction and electrically connected, and any one of the second electrode groups 20 includes 4 second electrodes 21 arranged in the X direction and electrically connected. The first electrode 11 and the second electrode 21 are arranged in an insulated and crossed manner.
Referring to fig. 2, in the region a, a plurality of first dummy electrodes 12 are disposed in any one of the first electrodes 11, and a plurality of second dummy electrodes 22 are disposed in any one of the second electrodes 21. In this embodiment, 4X4 dummy electrodes are disposed in any one of the first electrode 11 and the second electrode 21. The dummy electrodes are identical in shape.
In the present embodiment, since the area of any one of the first electrodes 11 and the area of any one of the second electrodes 21 may be substantially the same, the ratio of the area of the corresponding electrode occupied by the dummy electrode in a first electrode 11 or a second electrode 21 is equal.
In the prior art, the arrangement of the virtual electrode is mainly used for removing the technical problem that the unexpected visual visible stripe effect appears visually. The touch substrate is mainly used for reducing the proportion of the area occupied by the corresponding first electrode 11 and the second electrode 21 so as to reduce the side capacitance between the first electrode 11 and the second electrode 21 and increase the sensitivity of the touch substrate in a suspension touch state.
Referring to fig. 2, any of the first connection regions 110 coincides with the corresponding second connection region 210, each of the first connection regions 110 includes 5 first protrusions 111, and each of the second connection regions 210 includes 5 second protrusions 211. The first protrusion 111 and the second protrusion 211 are engaged with each other to form a complete pattern.
Referring to fig. 3, although the first electrode 11, the first dummy electrode 12, the second electrode 21, and the second dummy electrode 22 are visually integrated, the first electrode 11, the first dummy electrode 12, the second electrode 21, and the second dummy electrode 22 are insulated from each other by a break point of a metal wire in a boundary region of the first electrode 11, the first dummy electrode 12, and the second electrode 21. Therefore, the first protrusion 111 and the second protrusion 211 are insulated from each other by a metal break point between the first protrusion 111 and the second protrusion 211 in fig. 2.
Compared with the prior art, in the embodiment, a virtual electrode does not need to be arranged between the first electrode 11 and the second electrode 21, so that the technical problems of visual hollowing and the like are solved.
In addition, the first metal lines 31 and the second metal lines 32 are arranged to intersect each other to form diamond meshes in the related art, and correspond to data lines and scanning lines. The first metal lines 31 and the second metal lines 32 of the present application are arranged to intersect with each other to form a plurality of meshes having the same shape as the outer circles of the corresponding sub-pixels, so that the metal mesh 30 is closer to the actual product structure.
Referring to fig. 2 and 4, in order to ensure the sensitivity of touch operations in each area, the patterns of any one of the first connection regions 110 and any one of the second connection regions 210 are the same, that is, the patterns of the connection portions of any one of the first electrodes 11 and the second electrodes 21 are the same. The relative side length between the first electrode 11 and the second electrode 21 of any region is ensured to be the same, and the relative side length between the first electrode 11 and the second electrode 21 in the embodiment is characterized by the area of the right opposite surface between the first electrode 11 and the second electrode 21.
Referring to fig. 2, the first protrusion 111 and the second protrusion 211 have the same extension length and shape. The first protrusion 111 may extend toward the second dummy electrode 22, and the second protrusion 211 may extend toward the first dummy electrode 12, so as to increase a relative side length between the first electrode 11 and the second electrode 21. But the area occupied by the first electrode 11 and the second electrode 21 is reduced.
In this embodiment, when the interval between the second dummy electrode 22 and the first protrusion 111 is equal to the size of a sub-pixel, and the interval between the first dummy electrode 12 and the second protrusion 211 is equal to the size of a sub-pixel, the relative side length between the first protrusion 111 and the second protrusion 211 is the largest, and the area of the right opposite surface between the first electrode 11 and the second electrode 21 is the largest, so that the mutual capacitance between the first electrode 11 and the second electrode 21 is increased, the capacitance variation of the product under the floating touch is improved, and the touch sensitivity of the touch substrate is enhanced.
Referring to fig. 4, the first bump 111 in any of the first connection regions 110 and the second bump 211 in any of the second connection regions 210 have different extending lengths. In the first connection region 110 and/or the second connection region 210, the extension length of the first protrusion 111 and/or the second protrusion 211 increases and then decreases.
In this embodiment, the protrusion located in the middle region of the first connection region 110 or the second connection region 210 has the largest extension length, which is close to the center of the corresponding electrode. In order to avoid the collision of the two first protrusions 111, the extension length of the corresponding protrusion gradually decreases from the protrusion to both sides.
In this embodiment, the first dummy electrode 12 is disposed between two adjacent second protrusions 211, and the second dummy electrode 22 is disposed between two adjacent first electrodes 11. Since the extending lengths of the first protrusion 111 and the second protrusion 211 are increased, the areas of the first dummy electrode 12 and the second dummy electrode 22 are reduced in comparison with fig. 2 in this embodiment.
Compared with fig. 2, in the present embodiment, the relative side lengths of the first protrusion 111 and the second protrusion 211 are increased, the area of the right opposite surface between the first electrode 11 and the second electrode 21 is the largest, and the mutual capacitance value between the first electrode 11 and the second electrode 21 is further increased. But the area occupied by the first electrode 11 and the second electrode 21 is further reduced.
In fig. 2 and 4, compared with the prior art, the present application reduces the area ratio occupied by the corresponding electrode by increasing the area ratio occupied by the dummy electrode, and reduces the side capacitance between the first electrode 11 and the second electrode 21. Extending the length of the first protrusion 111 or the second protrusion 211 to the corresponding electrode increases the relative side length between the first electrode 11 and the second electrode 21, increases the area of the right opposite surface between the first electrode 11 and the second electrode 21, i.e., increases the mutual capacitance between the first electrode 11 and the second electrode 21.
In the above embodiment, since the areas of the first electrode 11 and the second electrode 21 are reduced, that is, the effective touch areas of the first electrode 11 and the second electrode 21 are reduced, and the area of the directly opposite surface between the first electrode 11 and the second electrode 21 is increased, that is, in the case of the ground touch, the actual change value is not changed. The area of the right opposite surface between the first electrode 11 and the second electrode 21 is increased, so that the mutual capacitance value between the first electrode 11 and the second electrode 21 is increased, the capacitance variation of the product under the suspension touch is improved, and the touch sensitivity of the touch substrate is enhanced.
When the area of the opposite surface between the first electrode 11 and the second electrode 21 is increased by a value larger than the effective touch area of the first electrode 11 and the second electrode 21, the sensitivity of the touch substrate of the embodiment is increased during the grounding touch.
In the above embodiment, since the relative side length between the first electrode 11 and the second electrode 21 in the embodiment of fig. 4 is increased by a larger ratio than that in fig. 2, the embodiment of fig. 4 is better than that in fig. 2 under the allowable conditions of the process.
Referring to fig. 6, fig. 6 is a partial method diagram of a touch layer in a touch substrate in the prior art. In the following, a comparison is made between fig. 6 and fig. 2. In this embodiment, the area of each of fig. 6 and 2 is 4.2mm by 4.2mm for comparison, and refer to the data in table 1 specifically.
