In the present embodiment, transparency carrier 21 is made up of base material 1 and the hard conating 2,3 that arranges on the two sides of base material 1.
Base material 1 is formed by the material with visible light permeability.Such as, base material can use: (1) unorganic glass, the transparent resin such as (2) polyolefin (tygon, polypropylene etc.), polyester (polyethylene terephthalate, polybutylene terephthalate, PEN etc.), polyamide (nylon 6, nylon66 fiber etc.), polyimide, polyarylate, polycarbonate, polyacrylate, polyethersulfone, polysulfones.In addition, base material 1 also can be by above-mentioned illustrative transparent resin tensionless winkler foundation/stretching after plastic foil.In addition, base material 1 also can be the stacked composite membrane of multiple material.
In addition, the thickness of base material 1 is preferably more than 10 μm in the scope of about less than 200 μm.But in nesa coating 20 of the present invention, the thickness of base material 1 is not limited within the scope of this.
In addition, also surface treatment can be carried out to the one or two sides of base material 1.By carrying out surface treatment, can bonding layer stacked on the surface of the substrate 1 securely.For surface treatment, the methods such as (such as) easy bonding process, Cement Composite Treated by Plasma, corona treatment, ozone treatment can be used.
Hard conating 2,3 is arranged on the surface of the substrate 1, can improve the physical strength of base material 1, wearing quality etc.As material therefor in hard conating 2,3, the material with visible light permeability can be used.Such as, following material can be used as the material of hard conating 2,3: the transparent resins such as the acrylic resins such as (1) esters of acrylic acid, acrylic amide, methyl acrylic ester, methacryl amine, (2) silicone based resin, (3) thermohardening type polyorganosiloxane resin.
As the formation method of hard conating 2,3, undertaken by the film forming method corresponding with the formation material of hard conating 2,3.Such as, hard conating 2,3 can be formed like this: using as major component above-mentioned resin and absorb ultraviolet material dissolves in a solvent thus prepare coating fluid, with die applicator, curtain coater, roll coater, reverse coater, gravure coater, knife type coater, bar coater, spin coater, micro-gravure coater etc. by this coating solution on base material, and make curing of coating by Ultraviolet radiation etc.
In addition, preferably, hard conating is arranged on the two sides of base material 1.In this case, by regulating the thickness of the hard conating of inside and outside both sides, the stress of both sides inside and outside nesa coating 20 can be adjusted to as best one can symmetrical.By adjusting the stress of inside and outside both sides, the generation etc. of distortion can be suppressed, and ELD 20 can be installed in touch panel well.But, also can form transparency carrier 21 by the base material 1 only arranging hard conating in one side, or by not arranging the base material 1 of hard conating to form transparency carrier 21.
In addition, the thickness of hard conating 2,3 is preferably more than 1 μm in the scope of about less than 10 μm.But the thickness of hard conating 2,3 is not limited to above-mentioned scope.
Transparency conducting layer 8,9 can by having visible light permeability and the material with electric conductivity is formed.As the material of transparency conducting layer 8,9, (such as) tin indium oxide (ITO:Indium Tin Oxide), zinc paste, carbon nano-tube, Graphene, Nano Silver, electroconductive polymer resin (resin containing having the quaternary ammonium salt electric conductivity monomer of mechanism of ionic conduction, the electrically conductive microparticle with electronic conduction mechanism, pi-conjugated class electroconductive polymer etc.) etc. can be used.
In addition, when ITO is used as the material of transparency conducting layer 8,9, the blooming of transparency conducting layer 8,9 is preferably in the scope of more than 30nm below 80nm.When the blooming of transparent electrode layer 8 is less than 30nm, film is thin, fully can not obtain electric conductivity.In addition, when the blooming of transparency conducting layer 8,9 is greater than 80nm, the transmitance of gained film is low, and optical characteristics reduces.But in the nesa coating 20 described in the present embodiment, when the film of ITO being formed pattern as aftermentioned thus form transparency conducting layer 8,9, the blooming of transparency conducting layer 8,9 is not limited to above-mentioned scope.
