Description

Touch display panel and touch display device
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of touch display, and more particularly, to a touch display panel and a touch display device.
Background
In recent years, with the gradual development of touch technologies, display panels of devices such as smart phones, smart tablets, wearable devices, and the like generally adopt touch display panels with touch functions, and the touch display panels can be classified into resistive type, capacitive type, optical type, and acoustic wave type according to different sensing technologies, wherein the capacitive type touch display panel can adopt self-capacitive type touch technology or mutual capacitive type touch technology. In the self-capacitance touch technology, the touch electrode and the ground are respectively used as two poles of a self-capacitance, when a user performs touch operation, the capacitance of a finger is increased to the self-capacitance, so that the capacitance of the self-capacitance is increased and a touch signal is generated.
In the mutual capacitance touch technology, the touch electrodes include a horizontal touch electrode and a vertical touch electrode, and the difference between the mutual capacitance touch technology and the self-capacitance touch technology is that a mutual capacitance is formed at the crossing position of two groups of electrodes, that is, the two groups of electrodes respectively form two electrode plates of the mutual capacitance. When a user performs a touch operation, the distance between two electrodes of the mutual capacitance near the touch point is affected, thereby changing the capacitance between the two electrodes. When the touch control point is detected, excitation signals are sequentially sent to the transverse touch control electrodes, and all the longitudinal touch control electrodes receive detection signals at the same time, so that the capacitance value of the intersection point of all the transverse touch control electrodes and the longitudinal touch control electrodes, namely the capacitance value of the two-dimensional plane of the whole touch screen, can be obtained, and the touch control point is determined.
Since the self-capacitance touch technology detects ghost points when a user performs multi-point touch operation, that is, real multi-point touch cannot be realized, more and more touch display panel manufacturers choose to adopt the mutual capacitance touch technology.
When a user uses the capacitive touch panel, a finger is generally used to click or slide on the touch panel to input an instruction to the electronic device, and the electronic device receives the instruction and then performs corresponding feedback.
Therefore, it is an urgent need in the art to provide a touch display panel and a touch display device, which can improve the touch performance and touch sensitivity of the touch display panel.

Techniques, methods, and apparatus known to those of ordinary skill in the relevant art may not be discussed in detail but are intended to be part of the specification where appropriate.
In all examples shown and discussed herein, any particular value should be construed as merely illustrative, and not limiting. Thus, other examples of the exemplary embodiments may have different values.
It should be noted that: like reference numbers and letters refer to like items in the following figures, and thus, once an item is defined in one figure, further discussion thereof is not required in subsequent figures.
A display device with a touch function, such as a mobile phone and a tablet with a touch function, is widely used in daily life, and fig. 1 is a top view of a touch display device in the prior art, as shown in fig. 1, the touch display device in the prior art includes a touch area 11 and a non-touch area 12, and touch electrodes are disposed in the touch area 11.
The inventor finds that, for a touch display device manufactured by adopting a mutual capacitance touch technology, the touch performance at the edge, the irregular area, the opening and the like of the touch area 11 is often lower than the touch performance at the center of the touch area 11. For example, the area a in fig. 1 is located at one corner of the touch area 11 as shown in fig. 1, and the inventor finds that the touch performance of the area a is lower than that of the center of the touch display device.
The inventors have found the above-mentioned problems and then have tried to analyze the causes of the above-mentioned problems and have further studied them, fig. 2 is an enlarged view of the area a in fig. 1, fig. 3 is a sectional view taken along a tangent line AA' in fig. 2, as shown in fig. 2, the touch electrodes include a first touch electrode 21 and a second touch electrode 22, the first touch electrode 21 and the second touch electrode 22 are arranged in an array, as shown in fig. 3, the touch display panel in the prior art includes a substrate layer 24, an insulating layer 25 and an electrode layer 26, referring to fig. 2 and 3, a first touch electrode 21 and a second touch electrode 22 are located on the electrode layer 26, in the first direction a, the first touch electrodes 21 are electrically connected to each other through the conductive portion 28, forming a touch electrode row, in the second direction b, the second touch electrodes 22 are electrically connected to each other through the bridge portion 27 to form a touch electrode row. In fig. 2, the first touch electrodes 21 and the second touch electrodes 22 are rhombus, when a user presses the touch display panel, the touch display panel sequentially sends transmission signals to each touch electrode row, that is, determines the abscissa of a touch point, and detects received signals of each touch electrode column, that is, determines the ordinate of the touch point, so as to determine the touch point, mutual capacitances are formed at intersections of the touch electrode rows and the touch electrode columns, for the mutual capacitance at any intersection, one plate of the mutual capacitance is two adjacent first touch electrodes 21 in the first direction a, the other plate of the mutual capacitance is two adjacent second touch electrodes 22 in the second direction b, and for the touch electrodes located at the edge of the touch area, reference may be made to the touch electrode row at the bottom in fig. 2, since the edge area is not fully covered with touch electrodes, a plurality of blank areas 29 are left, for the mutual capacitance formed at the intersection of the touch electrode row and the touch electrode column, one plate of the mutual capacitance is two adjacent first touch electrodes 21 in the first direction a, and the other plate is only composed of one second touch electrode 22, that is, compared with the mutual capacitance in the central region, the relative area between the two plates of the mutual capacitance is reduced, because the capacitance value of the mutual capacitance is proportional to the relative area of the two plates, the capacitance value of the mutual capacitance at the edge of the touch region is smaller than that of the mutual capacitance at the center. The capacitance value of the mutual capacitance is in direct proportion to the touch performance of the touch display panel, so the touch performance at the edge is poor, and the edge, the special-shaped area and the opening of the touch area have the problems.
After the inventor analyzes the reasons for the reduction of the touch performance at the edge, the special-shaped area, the opening and other positions of the touch display device, the inventor thinks that the reduction of the touch performance is caused by the reduction of the relative area between the two electrode plates of the mutual capacitor, and if the relative area of the first touch electrode and the first touch electrode can be increased, the capacitance value of the mutual capacitor can be increased, so as to improve the touch performance. However, the area of the touch display device is constant, and increasing the size of one of the touch electrodes necessarily reduces the size of the other touch electrodes, and the inventor further thinks that if the increased touch electrodes are not located in the electrode layer 26, for example, an extension electrode is added between the substrate layer 24 and the insulating layer 25 as a part of the first touch electrode 21 and/or the second touch electrode, the relative area between the first touch electrode 21 and the second touch electrode 2 can be increased, that is, the capacitance value of the mutual capacitance is increased, thereby increasing the touch performance.
