《5th embodiment:Reflection conductive layer 5 exposes a part from low reflection layer 6》
Fig. 5 (a) is the diagrammatic top of the 5th embodiment of capacitive touch panel substrate 10 involved in the present invention Figure, Fig. 5 (b) is the enlarged partial sectional view along the line C-C in Fig. 5 (a).
It is a part of overlapping with reflection conductive layer 5 that present embodiment is low reflection layer 6, as a result reflect conductive layer 5 from Low reflection layer 6 exposes a part and visible form.
The capacitive touch panel substrate 10 of embodiment shown in Fig. 5 is implemented relative to the 1st shown in above-mentioned Fig. 1 Mode is all identical in addition to following point is different.Therefore, the explanation of same section is omitted.
A) low reflection layer 6 is a part of overlapping with reflection conductive layer 5, and reflection conductive layer 5 exposes one from low reflection layer 6 Partly this visible point.
[low reflection layer 6 and the overlapping degree of reflection conductive layer 5]
So far each embodiment illustrated is all that low reflection layer 6 is overlapping in the gamut of reflection conductive layer 5, low reflection The outer contour shape of layer 6 is comprised in the form of the inner side of the outer contour shape of reflection conductive layer 5.Therefore, electric conductivity is reflected Layer 5 is hidden completely by low reflection layer 6 in its gamut, and reflection conductive layer 5 is invisible.
Make the unobvious of reflection conductive layer 5 in this point, preferably reflect conductive layer 5 its gamut with it is low Reflecting layer 6 is overlapping, even if how much visible reflection conductive layer 5 is, as long as actually to the display involved by reflection conductive layer 5 The adverse effect of quality is slight, as long as it can allow to reflect the purposes that the display quality involved by conductive layer 5 declines in addition, that Can also reflect the form that conductive layer 5 exposes a part from low reflection layer 6.
Though for example, due to being low reflection layer 6 but can also block display picture, therefore in view of to the unfavorable of display quality Influence, preferably low reflection layer 6 is as small as possible.That is, in view of caused by low reflection layer 6 itself to display quality not In the case that profit influences, reflection conductive layer 5 can be used to expose the form of a part from low reflection layer 6.That is, led from by reflection For the completely hiding viewpoint of electric layers 5, the minimum shape of low reflection layer 6 is and reflection 5 same shape of conductive layer and same Size.If however, allow to generate some exposed division E, then the outer contour shape of low reflection layer 6 is than reflection conductive layer 5 Outer contour shape is small, so that deviates even if producing some positions, can also reduce the area of low reflection layer 6 with exposed division E's Total area of area.Therefore, it is possible to reduce the key element for blocking display picture.
In addition, it is also contemplated that have because aligned in position precision is insufficient, reflection conductive layer 5 and the relative position of low reflection layer 6 Deviate the position for putting relation so that the situation that a part for reflection conductive layer 5 is exposed from low reflection layer 6.
This 5th embodiment is that in such a case etc., reflection conductive layer 5 exposes a part from low reflection layer 6 Form.
Show to reflect conductive layer 5 in Fig. 5 (a) and Fig. 5 (b) relative to the position to the right in the accompanying drawings of low reflection layer 6 Deviate, as a result produce the situation that reflection conductive layer 5 exposes the exposed division E of a part from low reflection layer 6.As a result, expose Portion E can by beholder V visually to.The figure is to reflect the feelings that conductive layer 5 deviates in bearing of trend (X-direction) position of its line Condition, but when the relation that deviates of the relative position for reflecting conductive layer 5 and low reflection layer 6 is on the basis of reflecting conductive layer 5, have Deviate in its line width direction position, bearing of trend and line width direction the two sides of some in the line of reflection conductive layer 5 Deviate to position.
Fig. 6 is the direction deviateed on the relative position of reflection conductive layer 5 and low reflection layer 6, with the situation in 2 directions The figure enumerated.Fig. 6 (a) shows to reflect the situation of the bearing of trend (being X-direction in the figure) of the line of conductive layer 5, Fig. 6 (b) The situation in the line width direction (being Y direction in the figure) of the line of reflection conductive layer 5 is shown.In Fig. 6 (a) and Fig. 6 (b), Direction shown in two arrows is to reflect conductive layer 5 and the direction of the relative position deviation of low reflection layer 6.Fig. 6 (a) equivalent to Described Fig. 5 position offset relation.
Fig. 6 (a) is the shape that low reflection layer 6 deviates relative to reflection conductive layer 5 in X-direction in accompanying drawing right position Condition, exposed division E is produced in the left side of reflection conductive layer 5.Fig. 6 (b) is low reflection layer 6 relative to reflection conductive layer 5 in Y-axis The situation that direction is deviateed in accompanying drawing lower position, exposed division E is produced in the upside of reflection conductive layer 5.In the drawings, it is It can be readily appreciated that reflection conductive layer 5 and low reflection layer 6 do not apply shade in the inner side of outer contour shape respectively, only revealing The part for going out portion E is applied with shade.In addition, the outer contour of the reflection conductive layer 5 of the part hidden by low reflection layer 6 is with void Line is shown.
(reflection conductive layer 5 is by the hidden area ratio of low reflection layer 6)
So, it is a part of overlapping with reflection conductive layer 5 in low reflection layer 6, conductive layer 5 is reflected from low reflection layer 6 In the form for exposing a part, the area of the part overlapping with reflection conductive layer 5 of low reflection layer 6 is reflection conductive layer 5 More than the 30% of area, preferably more than 50%, more preferably more than 70%, further preferred more than 80% area ratio.This is If because the area ratio can decline display quality less than described value.
As can be seen from Figure 6, even if the size that reflection conductive layer 5 is exposed from low reflection layer 6 is, for example, 1 μm of grade, with exposing Direction is independently identical size, when exposing in the line direction (being X-direction in accompanying drawing) for reflecting conductive layer 5;It is and online When width (being Y direction in accompanying drawing) exposes, the area for the exposed division E that reflection conductive layer 5 is exposed from low reflection layer 6, Area ratio relative to the area of reflection conductive layer 5 is also different.Especially, caused by the exposed division E for reflecting conductive layer 5 Be when the line width direction position shown in Fig. 6 (b) is deviateed and is exposed to the increase of the adverse effect of display quality.Even in this Under the situation of sample, it is more than described value, so as to suppress display quality to make by the hidden area ratio of low reflection layer 6 Decline.
Concrete example is shown, relative to reflection conductive layer 5 line 15 μm of line width, the line total length in line width side To have 3 μm not by low reflection layer 6 it is hidden and when exposing, the area ratio is { (15 μm -3 μm)/15 μm } × 100= 80%.
[effect of present embodiment]
By being formed as the above, in the capacitive touch panel substrate 10 of present embodiment, due to It is configured to low reflection layer 6 and is hidden the part of conductive layer 5 is reflected used in the connecting portion between transparency electrode unit, therefore Connecting portion can be made to be difficult to substantially.In addition, it can also suppress the unfavorable shadow to display quality caused by low reflection layer 6 itself Ring.
Moreover, in the present embodiment, because reflection conductive layer 5 with 7 identical materials of wiring by forming, therefore reflect Conductive layer 5 can be set without increasing process number with wiring 7 in same process, can not be added to and originally be realized and make reflection 5 unconspicuous construction of conductive layer.
Also, by allowing exposing for the reflection conductive layer 5 of a certain degree, can release position alignment accuracy, can Suppression becomes easier to the adverse effect of display quality and manufacture, further realizes cost degradation.
《Deformation form》
The capacitive touch panel substrate 10 of the present invention can take other forms beyond above-mentioned form.Below, Illustrate one part.
[reflection conductive layer 5 exposes the form of a part from low reflection layer 6]
Expose the form of a part from low reflection layer 6 as reflection conductive layer 5 and the 5th embodiment that illustrates is also the The deformation form of 1 embodiment.
But in the present invention, the form that reflection conductive layer 5 exposes a part from low reflection layer 6 is not limited to the 1st implementation The deformation form of mode.The form that reflection conductive layer 5 exposes a part from low reflection layer 6 can also be used as the 2nd implementation The deformation form of other forms such as mode, the 3rd embodiment, the 4th embodiment or aftermentioned deformation form.
[exposed division E is utilized to the form as reflecting part]
In the form that reflection conductive layer 5 exposes a part from low reflection layer 6, it will can also expose from low reflection layer 6 The part of reflection conductive layer 5 be that exposed division E is positively utilized as reflecting part.
For example, in the game machine of shooting game etc., the touch surface for including capacitive touch panel substrate 10 Plate configures the display device in the beholder side of display panel, and the display is indicated using the light irradiation from gun shaped optical controller Reflection position inspection involved by two-dimensional image sensor such as the optional position in picture, the additional CCD that can shoot display picture etc. Unit is surveyed, so as to as anti-involved by the exposed division E of the reflection position detection unit and capacitive touch panel substrate 10 Penetrate portion and form optical touchless indicating positions detection unit, shooting game machine can be used as, wherein, reflection position detection unit connects The reflected light in the reflecting part reflection involved by exposed division E from the light that the gun shaped optical controller is sent is received, so as to detect display picture The position indicated in face.In addition, if irradiation light uses infrared light, easily can be distinguished with visible ray.
From will reflection conductive layer 5 by the use of for the meaning as reflecting part, being not provided with low reflection layer 6 can strengthen on the contrary This point of intensity of reflected light is preferable, but the light of surrounding environment is easy to be mapped to and reflects conductive layer 5 and is easy to obvious.However, it is configured to With low reflection layer 6 by reflect conductive layer 5 a part hide so that as reflection conductive layer 5 originally The basic electrical property of electrical connecting unit, 1 structure as the optical touchless indicating positions detection unit in display picture Intensity of reflected light into key element, the 5 obvious difficulty of reflection conductive layer as display picture quality, reflection conductive layer 5 with The balance of the various performances such as easness and cost in the related manufacture of the aligned in position precision of low reflection layer 6 is easier, can Increase the free degree of design.
If moreover, using as the reflecting part of an inscape of optical touchless indicating positions detection unit and reflection Conductive layer 5 is separately independently arranged, then and process number can correspondingly increase, and cost can raise, but by the way that conductive layer 5 will be reflected Exposed division E be utilized as reflecting part, be configured to reflecting part by the identical material of conductive layer 5 while being formed with reflection, do not increase Process number can just be set.
Such exposed division E is applied to a structure as the optical touchless indicating positions detection unit in display picture Into the reflecting part of key element, in addition to game machine purposes, can also be used in as the optional position in instruction display picture, from And carry out the purposes of the controller of operation such as zoom in or out of picture centered on the part.For example, it is regularly arranged Exposed division E, the function as the grid lines in display picture can be played so as to exposed division E.
In addition, in above-mentioned form example, on an inscape as optical touchless indicating positions detection unit Function use, be in operator in the purposes of the application method used when being divided into touch panel function and use Reach what is carried out during the position of display picture positioned at hand;It is to operate in the purposes of the application method of two functions Person is located at hand and accesses what is carried out during the position of display picture.
[additional and the preceding surface protection board of display device the dual-purpose of ornamental portion 8]
As Fig. 7 is enumerated, in the present invention, capacitive touch panel substrate 10 is position detection zone Ap's Peripheral part can have ornamental portion 8.
Ornamental portion 8 be by the touch panel comprising capacitive touch panel substrate 10, used the touch panel Display device in hidden positioned at the position detection zone Ap wiring 7 of peripheral part, control circuit etc. so that for display device Beholder V or touch panel operator it is invisible, do not influence outward appearance, and show the part of any appearance design.
Peripheral part of the capacitive touch panel substrate 10 in position detection zone Ap has ornamental portion 8, so as to Conventional display device 200, glass cover that Figure 11 (a) is enumerated etc. is played as display device with preceding surface protection board 50 Function, display device can be also used as with preceding surface protection board 50.
Being also used as display device can be claimed with the capacitive touch panel substrate 10 of the composition of preceding surface protection board 50 Make the display device one-piece type touch panel substrate of preceding surface protection board.In this case, light-transmitting substrate 1 with being provided with Face (another face, the 2nd of the opposite side in 1 direction transparency electrode 2a and the 2nd direction transparency electrode 2b face (face, the 1st face S1) Face S2) external conductor such as finger as operator contacts (or close) line position of going forward side by side with touch panel sensor and puts input The input face (touch surface, contact surface) of touch panel plays function.
Capacitive touch panel substrate 10 is also used as display device preceding surface protection board 50 and integration, so as to Access the effect that further number of devices is reduced, is thinned.
[low reflection layer 6, with the material of ornamental portion 8 mutually assimilate]
Capacitive touch panel substrate 10 also with ornamental portion 8 form in, with its ornamental portion 8 with The same low reflectivity and during the inscape of light-proofness with low reflection layer 6, low reflection layer 6 can by with the identical of ornamental portion 8 Material is formed.Additionally, it is preferable that low reflection layer 6 with the identical material of ornamental portion 8 by forming.Because due to by low reflection Layer 6 by being formed with the identical material of ornamental portion 8, so as to low reflection layer 6 and ornamental portion 8 in same process without increasing process number It can set, therefore originally realization can not be added to make 5 unconspicuous construction of reflection conductive layer.Certainly, in this case, Low reflection layer 6 is formed on the same face of light-transmitting substrate 1 (reference picture 7 (c)) with ornamental portion 8, so as in same process Formed simultaneously.In addition, Fig. 7 (c) shows the low reflection layer 6 and ornamental portion 8 while the example of formation of Fig. 1 form, but other shapes The low reflection layer 6 of state can also be formed simultaneously with ornamental portion 8.
Ornamental portion 8 at least has the light shield layer 8a for light-proofness, but in addition, be generally also provided with red for hidden wiring 7 etc. Outside line is through window 8b etc..Need to prevent the malfunction of touch panel when being attached to mobile phone from ear during call, also close aobvious For showing the display of panel to extend viewpoint of battery life etc., infrared ray is arranged on perceptually human skin through window 8b and connect Near human body sensor and the part of infrared ray sensor set.
As the inscape of the ornamental portion 8 by being formed with the identical material of low reflection layer 6, such as there is light shield layer 8a;Shape Into the infrared ray transmission layer 8bL in infrared ray through window 8b part.
[light shield layer 8a]
Light shield layer 8a light-proofness specification as requested, apparent color and difference, but with for transmitance preferably most Greatly also below 3% (optical concentration OD be more than 1.5), more preferably transmitance be less than 1% (optical concentration OD be 2.0 with On), further preferred transmitance is less than 0.01% (optical concentration OD is more than 4.0).Because if transmitance is more than upper Scope is stated, then device that should be hidden etc. can become visible.
Light shield layer 8a can be formed with known material and formation method.For example, light shield layer 8a can be by curable resin The layer comprising coloring pigment is formed in the resin binder that solidfied material is formed.As curable resin, ultraviolet can be used The photoresists such as curing type acrylic resin.
As coloring pigment used in light shield layer 8a, as long as being coloured using the color showed with light shield layer 8a is corresponding Pigment, it is not particularly limited.For example, as coloring pigment, black pigment, Chinese white, red pigment, Huang can be used Color pigment, blue pigment, viridine green, violet pigment etc..Coloring pigment be able to can also be used a variety of with a kind of exclusive use The coloring pigment of congener color or different colours.
It is anti-as the colors presented of the light shield layer 8a in the case of being formed with 6 identical material of low reflection layer are not white Penetrating property color, but dark-coloured color as black.In addition, the appearance design color that black is showed as ornamental portion 8, Ye Shiyou Select one kind of color.
[infrared ray passes through window 8b]
As being enumerated such as Fig. 7 (a) and Fig. 7 (b), in ornamental portion 8, as visible ray show light-proofness and The infrared ray for showing permeability for infrared light can set infrared ray transmission layer 8bL through window 8b part.Because hiding In the case that photosphere 8a is black, if due to using carbon black as black pigment, not only for visible ray and for infrared Light also turns into light-proofness, it is therefore desirable to the infrared ray transmission layer 8bL of the material layer different from light shield layer 8a.
Pass through the window 8b permeability for infrared light as infrared ray, specification as requested, apparent color, be adapted to it is red Outside line is different using device through the window 8b infrared ray such as infrared ray sensor, but shows an example, region of ultra-red it is saturating Rate is crossed as more than 70%.The transmitance is that more than 70% region of ultra-red must be not necessarily more than 780nm region, As long as such as more than 850nm region, it becomes possible to give full play to function.In addition, transmitance is more than 70% region of ultra-red The upper limit is near infrared region, and it generally meets 1300nm.
Infrared ray is but infrared through the window 8b specification as requested of the light-proofness for visible ray, apparent color and difference Line is usually that point-like is smaller through window 8b part, therefore is not necessarily required to pass through window 8b and light shield layer 8a shading with infrared ray Property level it is consistent.Therefore, an example of the infrared ray through the window 8b light-proofness for visible ray is shown, with transmitance Speech be preferably it is maximum also below 50% (optical concentration OD is more than 0.2), more preferably transmitance is that less than 25% (optics is dense It is more than 0.6 to spend OD), further preferred transmitance is less than 10% (optical concentration OD is more than 1.0).
So, infrared ray has through window 8b for example for infrared light region below wavelength 850nm above 1300nm There is more than 70% transmitance;There is less than 10% transmitance for visible region.In addition, the transmitance is not average Value, it is the value of each each wavelength.
(infrared ray transmission layer 8bL)
