Description

Touch electrode layer and touch display device
Technical Field
The utility model belongs to the technical field of the touch-control demonstration and specifically relates to a touch-control electrode layer and touch-control display device are related to.
Background
Due to the high durability, long service life and the function of supporting multi-point touch control, the capacitive touch screen is widely applied to various electronic interaction scene devices. The capacitive touch screen detects the specific position touched by the finger by detecting the capacitance change at the position where the finger touches the screen. Therefore, when the amount of capacitance change caused when touched is small, the conventional capacitive touch screen may not accurately detect whether there is a touch input.
Since the structural design of the touch screen is a very important factor for detecting the capacitance change amount, it is very necessary to develop a design of the touch screen capable of detecting a small capacitance change amount. Currently, for a flexible Active matrix organic light-emitting diode (AMOLED) display screen, a touch electrode pattern is usually required to be directly fabricated on an upper surface of a thin film encapsulation layer, however, since the encapsulation layer is thin (usually, the thickness is less than 10um), a distance between the touch electrode and a cathode is small, so that a parasitic capacitance between a driving electrode (Tx)/an induction electrode (Rx) and the cathode is large, thereby causing a large resistance-capacitance (RC) delay and reducing touch sensitivity. At present, a Touch electrode of a flexible AMOLED display screen is usually a hollow Metal Mesh (Metal Mesh), and a conductive area of the Touch electrode is smaller than an actual effective conductive electrode area of a traditional Touch electrode made of an Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) material, so that mutual capacitance induction between a driving electrode (Tx) and an induction electrode (Rx) is very small, and thus, when a finger touches the Touch electrode, a capacitance variation caused by the finger is smaller, and the Touch electrode is not easily detected by a Touch chip (Touch IC).
Therefore, it is urgently needed to provide a new touch electrode layer and a touch display device for improving the resolution and accuracy of detecting the touch position of the touch display device.

In addition, since the impedance that determines the entire drive electrode is determined by the electrode impedance along the longitudinal axis, the trunk channels of the first and second electrodes do not have Dummy (Dummy) electrodes to maximize the reduced drive electrode impedance.
In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 5, a third dummy electrode 303 is disposed at an edge of the touch electrode adjacent to the first electrode 10 and the second electrode 20, and the third dummy electrode 303 is electrically insulated from the first electrode 10 and the second electrode 20. A Dummy (Dummy) electrode is arranged at the adjacent edge between the first electrode and the second electrode, so that the mutual capacitance between the electrodes is reduced to a certain extent, the ratio of the mutual capacitance change when a finger touches or does not touch can be improved, the signal to noise ratio is improved, meanwhile, the first electrode and the second electrode can be isolated by the third Dummy electrode, an isolation area is filled, and the phenomenon that the pixel light-emitting is uneven due to the fact that no metal pattern exists in the isolation area is avoided.
In some embodiments, the first branch widening 103 of each first electrode branch 102 is disposed correspondingly adjacent to the second branch connection 204 of the adjacent second electrode branch, and the first branch connection 104 of each first electrode branch 102 is disposed correspondingly adjacent to the second branch widening 203 of the adjacent second electrode branch 202; the first electrode branch 102 and the second electrode branch 202 are arranged in a staggered coupling manner, so that the adjacent interface coupling area between the first electrode and the second electrode can be further increased to improve the mutual capacitance signal variation Δ C when a finger touchesmThereby effectively improving the touch sensitivity.
Each touch electrode unit 100 is divided into four sub-regions by the first electrode longitudinal trunk 1011 and the second electrode transverse trunk 2012 arranged in a crossing manner, as shown in fig. 3-4, the first electrode branch 102 in each sub-region extends from the first electrode trunk to a direction away from an end point where the first electrode longitudinal trunk 1011 and the first electrode transverse trunk 1012 intersect, and the second electrode branch 202 in each sub-region extends from the second electrode trunk to a direction away from an end point where the second electrode transverse trunk 2012 and the second electrode transverse trunk 2011 intersect.
The first electrode branches 102 form an included angle α with the first electrode longitudinal trunk 1011, wherein α is greater than 0 ° and less than 90 °; in this embodiment, the included angles α formed by the first electrode branches 102 and the first electrode longitudinal trunk 1011 are preferably equal.
The second electrode branches 202 form an angle β with the second electrode transverse stem 2012, wherein β is greater than 0 ° and less than 90 °.

In some embodiments, within a single touch electrode unit, the first electrode and the second electrode are mirror symmetric with respect to the first electrode longitudinal trunk and the second electrode transverse trunk, respectively.
The structural design of the touch electrode layer in this embodiment can realize that the first electrode branches 102 and the second electrode branches 202 are coupled in a staggered manner, and meanwhile, in one touch electrode unit 100, the shape and size of the driving electrode (Tx) is almost the same as those of the sensing electrode (Rx), and the shape and size of the branch electrodes arranged in an adjacent and crossed manner are also the same as each other, so that the mutual capacitance value between the touch driving electrode and the touch sensing electrode can be effectively improved, and meanwhile, the mutual capacitance electric field lines are distributed more uniformly, which is more favorable for improving the resolution and accuracy of detecting the touch position.
It should be noted that the interaction capacitance between the driving electrode and the sensing electrode generally needs to be maintained within a certain reasonable range, and is not too large or too small, and the too large capacitance variation amount causes a small variation rate of the capacitance variation amount relative to the original interaction capacitance between Tx/Rx when touching; if the signal level is too low, the signal level of the touch capacitance is very small when the touch is likely to cause a finger touch.
The first electrode longitudinal trunk 1011 and the second electrode transverse trunk 2012 are at an intersection point, and the first electrode longitudinal trunks 1011 on both sides of the second electrode transverse trunk 2012 are connected by a first connection portion 105.

In this embodiment, the first metal pattern 403 and the second metal pattern 404 are disposed on the same layer, and the first metal pattern 403 and the second metal pattern 404 are formed by patterning the same metal layer.

In other embodiments, the first metal pattern 403 and the second metal pattern 404 may be disposed in different layers, thereby avoiding cross-connection at the cross region where the first electrode and the second electrode may be directly connected without providing a connection bridge. Specifically, the first metal pattern 403 is disposed in the insulating layer 402, and the second metal pattern 404 is disposed on the insulating layer 402.
The material of the first electrode 10 and the second electrode 20 may be Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) on the whole surface; or the material can be a Metal Mesh (Metal Mesh) structure, and the material can be a Metal material such as Ti/Al/Mo/Ag/Cu or an alloy of the Metal materials.
The first, second, and third dummy electrodes 301, 302, and 303 are disposed on the same layer as the first and second electrodes 10 and 20, and further, preferably, after the first and second electrodes are patterned by using the same metal layer, the dummy electrodes are disconnected from the first and second electrodes by gaps, so that the dummy electrodes are not electrically connected to an external metal line and an effective electrode.
According to the design scheme of the touch electrode pattern, on the premise that the signal quantity is guaranteed (more than or equal to 60fF) when the finger touches, the phenomenon that the touch electrode is not charged fully due to overlarge RC Delay of the touch screen, and the Sensing Frequency of the touch screen is reduced, so that key touch performance indexes such as a report rate are influenced is avoided.
Further, the first branch widening 103 and the second branch widening 203 have a square shape, and a hollow area inside the first branch widening and the second branch widening are also square. In other embodiments, the widened portion and the hollowed-out area may be configured in a curved structure such as a circle or an ellipse.
