Detailed description of the invention
The image display system of the following description embodiment of the present invention.But, can will readily appreciate that the present invention is carried For embodiment be merely to illustrate with ad hoc approach make and the present invention, and be not used to limitation the present invention Scope.
The image display system of each different embodiments of the present invention presented below.Refer to Fig. 1, it illustrates Go out the sensing unit 100 of touch sensing device 200 in image display system according to an embodiment of the invention Floor map.In the present embodiment, touch sensing device 200 includes multiple sensing unit, its arrangement Become an array.Herein, in order to simplify accompanying drawing, only show single sensing unit 100.At the present embodiment In, each sensing unit 100 includes: a pair first transparent electrode layers 102, a pair second transparency electrodes Layer 104,1 first conductive tie layers 106,1 second conductive tie layers 108 and an insulating barrier 110. First transparent electrode layer the 102, second transparent electrode layer 104 and the first conductive tie layers 106 arrange one In transparent substrates (not illustrating), such as: glass, quartz or other elastic or non-resilient macromolecules are transparent Material.
Furthermore, 10 arrangement in the first direction of the first transparent electrode layer 102, and the second transparent electrode layer 104 It is adjacent to the first transparent electrode layer 102 and 20 arranges in a second direction, wherein first direction 10 and second Direction 20 is intersected.In one embodiment, first direction 10 can be the horizontal direction being parallel to Fig. 1, and Second direction 20 can be the vertical direction being parallel to Fig. 1, makes the second transparent electrode layer 104 less perpendicular In the first transparent electrode layer 102.But, in other embodiments, first direction 10 also can out of plumb In second direction 20 and depend on design requirement.
Same transparency conducting layer (such as, indium tin oxide can be patterned by lithographic and etch process (ITO) or indium-zinc oxide (indium zinc oxide, IZO) layer) and formed the first transparent electrode layer 102, Second transparent electrode layer 104 and the first conductive tie layers 106, makes two the first adjacent transparent electrode layers 102 are electrically connected to each other by the first conductive tie layers 106.
Second conductive tie layers 108 is arranged between two the second adjacent transparent electrode layers 104, makes biphase The second adjacent transparent electrode layer 104 is electrically connected to each other by the second conductive tie layers 108.Second leads Electric connection layer 108 can be a single metal layer (such as, copper, aluminum, molybdenum or its alloy or a combination thereof) or For multiple structure (copper, aluminum, molybdenum or its alloy that such as, stack or a combination thereof).
Insulating barrier 110 is arranged between the first conductive tie layers 106 and the second conductive tie layers 108, uses Using as electrically isolating, to avoid the first transparent electrode layer 102 and the second transparent electrode layer 104 therebetween Between be short-circuited.Insulating barrier 110 can be a monolayer (such as, one silica layer, a silicon nitride layer or Other transparent insulating polymer layers) or be multiple structure (silicon oxide layer that such as, stacks, silicon nitride layer Or other transparent insulating polymer layer or a combination thereofs).In one embodiment, the second conductive tie layers 108 The surface of the second transparent electrode layer 104 can be extended to along the surface of insulating barrier 110 and directly connect Touch.In another embodiment, the second conductive tie layers 108 can be by the intraconnections (example in insulating barrier 110 As, conductive plunger (plug)/via (also referred to as interlayer hole (via))) and electric with the second transparent electrode layer 104 Property connect.
In the present embodiment, specifically, at least one edge 103 of each first transparent electrode layer 102 There is nonlinear profile, and at least one edge 105 of each second transparent electrode layer 104 also has non- Linear profile, such as: S-shaped, snakelike, waveform or zigzag.In other embodiments, Mei Yi All edges of one transparent electrode layer 102 and each second transparent electrode layer 104 all have nonlinear wheel Wide.Herein, in order to simplify accompanying drawing, only at the first transparent electrode layer 102 and each second transparent electrode layer 104 adjacent edges 103 and 105 show nonlinear profile.There is the edge 103 of non-linear profile And 105, the irregularity boundary of the first transparent electrode layer 102 and each second transparent electrode layer 104 can be made Change and to reduce optics reflective, and then reduce the visuality of overall electrode pattern.
It addition, each first transparent electrode layer 102 can have at least one slit opening 102a, and each One transparent electrode layer 104 also can have at least one slit opening 104a, with reducing the first transparent electrical further Pole layer 102 is reflective with the optics of each second transparent electrode layer 104.Slit opening 102a and 104a must Must have suitable width w.When the width w of slit opening 102a and 104a is wide, the most easily made User observed to and increase the visuality of overall electrode pattern, and work as slit opening 102a's and 104a Width w is narrow, then cannot effectively reduce optics reflective.Therefore, in the present embodiment, each slit The width w of opening can be controlled in the scope of 10 microns to 50 microns.In other embodiments, Mei Yi One transparent electrode layer 102 and each first transparent electrode layer 104 can be respectively provided with multiple slit opening 102a And 104a, it can have regular or irregular arrangement.Should be noted slit opening 102a in Fig. 1 And 104a, quantity, profile and arrangement be only used as example explanation, the present invention is not necessarily limited by this.
Refer to Fig. 2 A to Fig. 2 C, its show according to different embodiments of the invention in Fig. 1 Conductive tie layers and insulating barrier configuration plane enlarged diagram.It is different from the embodiment (that is, second of Fig. 1 Conductive tie layers 108 has linear upper end out line and 20 extension in a second direction), at Fig. 2 A to figure Second conductive tie layers 108 in 2C with linear upper end out line extends along a third direction 30, and it is not It is same as first direction 10 and second direction 20.In one embodiment, insulating barrier 110 can be along being different from The third direction 30 of one direction 10 and second direction 20 extends, as shown in Figure 2 A.Implement at other In example, insulating barrier 110 can in a second direction 20 extend, as shown in Figure 1, Figure 2 shown in B and Fig. 2 C.? In above-described embodiment, owing to the second conductive tie layers 108 or insulating barrier 110 can be along being different from first party Third direction 30 to 10 and second direction 20 extends, and therefore can reduce by second further and be conductively connected The optics of layer 108 is reflective, and then reduces the visuality of entirety sensing unit 100.
Refer to Fig. 3, it shows being conductively connected in Fig. 1 according to different embodiments of the invention Layer plane schematic diagram.It is different from embodiment (that is, second conductive tie layers of Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 A to Fig. 2 C 108 have linear upper end out line), the second conductive tie layers 108 in figure 3 has on nonlinear End out line, such as: S-shaped, snakelike, Scolopendra-shaped, zigzag or waveform (not illustrating).Herein, by scheming Left-to-right in 3, shows the most respectively and has S-shaped, snakelike, Scolopendra-shaped and zigzag upper end out line The second conductive tie layers 108 illustrate as example.It is different from and there is the conduction of linear upper end out line even Connecing layer, second conductive tie layers 108 with nonlinear upper end out line can reduce the second conduction further The optics of articulamentum 108 is reflective, and then reduces the visuality of entirety sensing unit 100.
