Abstract

The invention provides a preparation method of a touch screen. The preparation method of the touch screen includes: using a photoresist layer used to pattern a first conductive layer as an insulating layer so as to isolate a first connection pattern from a second connection pattern and insulate the first connection pattern and the second connection pattern. Only two masking steps and two etching processes are needed to complete the preparation process of the touch screen, and therefore the number of production processes is effectively decreased, and production efficiency and a production yield are improved. Simultaneously, a covering is not arranged on a first sensing pattern or a second sensing pattern of the touch screen, and only the photoresist layer is arranged between the first connection pattern and the second connection pattern, and therefore light transmittance of the touch screen is effectively improved.
