Description
本発明は、タッチパネルを備える液晶表示装置に関する。 The present invention relates to a liquid crystal display device including a touch panel.
従来のタッチパネル付き液晶表示装置としては、液晶表示装置の上にタッチパネルが配置されているアウトセルタイプのものが広く用いられている（例えば、特開２０１２−２３０４９１号公報（特許文献１））。このアウトセルタイプのタッチパネル付き液晶表示装置は、液晶表示装置の上にタッチパネルが重ねられているため、厚みがあるだけでなく、タッチパネルのセンサーパターンが見えるという、いわゆる、骨見えの問題があった。 As a conventional liquid crystal display device with a touch panel, an out-cell type in which a touch panel is arranged on the liquid crystal display device is widely used (for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2012-230491 (Patent Document 1)). The out-cell type liquid crystal display device with a touch panel has a so-called bone appearance problem that the touch panel sensor pattern is visible as well as the thickness because the touch panel is stacked on the liquid crystal display device. .
そこで、このような骨見えを防止するために、液晶表示装置の前面側偏光板と液晶層との間にタッチパネルが配置されている、インナーセルタイプのタッチパネル付き液晶表示装置が提案されている（例えば、特開平８−１６１１１６号公報（特許文献２））。このようなインナーセルタイプのタッチパネル付き液晶表示装置においては、前面側偏光板よりも内側（液晶層側）にタッチパネルが配置されているため、タッチパネル用基板には光等方性が要求される。したがって、アウトセルタイプのタッチパネル付き液晶表示装置に用いられているポリエチレンテレフタレート基板は、複屈折が大きい（光等方性が低い）ため、インナーセルタイプのタッチパネル付き液晶表示装置に用いることはできなかった。このため、インナーセルタイプのタッチパネル付き液晶表示装置においては、タッチパネル用基板として、シクロオレフィン系ポリマー基板等の複屈折が小さい（光等方性を有する）樹脂からなる基板を用いる必要があった。 Therefore, in order to prevent such a bone appearance, an inner cell type liquid crystal display device with a touch panel in which a touch panel is arranged between the front polarizing plate and the liquid crystal layer of the liquid crystal display device has been proposed ( For example, Unexamined-Japanese-Patent No. 8-161116 (patent document 2)). In such an inner cell type liquid crystal display device with a touch panel, the touch panel is required to have optical isotropy because the touch panel is disposed on the inner side (liquid crystal layer side) than the front side polarizing plate. Therefore, the polyethylene terephthalate substrate used in the out-cell type liquid crystal display device with a touch panel cannot be used for the inner cell type liquid crystal display device with a touch panel because of its large birefringence (low optical isotropy). It was. For this reason, in the inner cell type liquid crystal display device with a touch panel, it is necessary to use a substrate made of a resin having low birefringence (having optical isotropy) such as a cycloolefin polymer substrate as a touch panel substrate.
しかしながら、シクロオレフィン系ポリマーは耐熱性が低いため、シクロオレフィン系ポリマー基板の表面に透明電極を形成する際に、高温で加熱処理を行うことができず、透明電極の導電性が低くなるという問題があった。このため、シクロオレフィン系ポリマー基板は、大画面のインナーセルタイプのタッチパネル付き液晶表示装置におけるタッチパネル用基板としては不向きであった。 However, since the cycloolefin polymer has low heat resistance, when the transparent electrode is formed on the surface of the cycloolefin polymer substrate, the heat treatment cannot be performed at a high temperature, and the conductivity of the transparent electrode is lowered. was there. For this reason, the cycloolefin polymer substrate is unsuitable as a substrate for a touch panel in a liquid crystal display device with a large-screen inner cell type touch panel.
本発明は、上記従来技術の有する課題に鑑みてなされたものであり、導電性に優れた透明電極を有するタッチパネルを備えている、インナーセルタイプのタッチパネル付き液晶表示装置を提供することを目的とする。 The present invention has been made in view of the above-described problems of the prior art, and an object thereof is to provide an inner cell type liquid crystal display device with a touch panel, which includes a touch panel having a transparent electrode with excellent conductivity. To do.
本発明者らは、上記目的を達成すべく鋭意研究を重ねた結果、ポリイミドの優れた耐熱性に着目し、タッチパネル用基板として透明ポリイミド基板を用いることによって、透明電極を形成する際に高温での加熱処理が可能となり、導電性に優れた透明電極を備えているタッチパネルが得られることを見出した。 As a result of intensive studies to achieve the above object, the present inventors have paid attention to the excellent heat resistance of polyimide, and by using a transparent polyimide substrate as a substrate for touch panel, at a high temperature when forming a transparent electrode. It was found that a touch panel provided with a transparent electrode having excellent conductivity can be obtained.
しかしながら、透明ポリイミド基板は、ネガティブＣ性の複屈折を有するものであるため、インナーセルタイプのタッチパネル付き液晶表示装置のタッチパネル用基板としてそのまま使用すると、表示が乱れるという問題があった。 However, since the transparent polyimide substrate has negative C birefringence, there is a problem that display is disturbed if it is used as it is as a substrate for a touch panel of an inner cell type liquid crystal display device with a touch panel.
そこで、本発明者らは、このようなネガティブＣ性の透明ポリイミド基板とホメオトロピック配向性を有する層（ポジティブＣ層）とを組み合わせることによって、前記透明ポリイミド基板のネガティブＣ性が前記ポジティブＣ層により光学補償され、表示の乱れが改善されることを見出し、本発明を完成するに至った。 Therefore, the present inventors combine such a negative C transparent polyimide substrate with a layer having a homeotropic orientation (positive C layer), whereby the negative C property of the transparent polyimide substrate becomes the positive C layer. As a result, the present invention has been completed.

以下、図面を参照しながら本発明の好適な実施形態について詳細に説明するが、本発明は前記図面に限定されるものではない。なお、以下の説明及び図面中、同一又は相当する要素には同一の符号を付し、重複する説明は省略する。 Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the drawings. In the following description and drawings, the same or corresponding elements are denoted by the same reference numerals, and duplicate descriptions are omitted.
図１及び図２に示すように、本発明のタッチパネル付き液晶表示装置は、バックライト１、背面側偏光板２、液晶層（液晶表示素子）３、ネガティブＣ性の透明ポリイミド基板を有するタッチパネル４、ポジティブＣ層５、前面側偏光板６、及びカバーガラス７を備えるものである。 As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the liquid crystal display device with a touch panel of the present invention includes a backlight 1, a back side polarizing plate 2, a liquid crystal layer (liquid crystal display element) 3, and a touch panel 4 having a negative C transparent polyimide substrate. , Positive C layer 5, front side polarizing plate 6, and cover glass 7.
本発明のタッチパネル付き液晶表示装置において、バックライト１とカバーガラス７とは、互いに対向するように配置されており、これらの間に、背面側偏光板２と前面側偏光板６とが互いに対向するように配置されている。液晶層３は、背面側偏光板２と前面側偏光板６との間に配置されており、タッチパネル４及びポジティブＣ層５は、互いに隣に位置した状態で、液晶層３と前面側偏光板６との間に配置されている。このように、本発明のタッチパネル付き液晶表示装置においては、タッチパネル４とポジティブＣ層５とが互いに隣に位置した状態で配置されているため、タッチパネル４を構成する透明ポリイミド基板のネガティブＣ性がポジティブＣ層５によって光学補償され、表示の乱れが改善される。 In the liquid crystal display device with a touch panel of the present invention, the backlight 1 and the cover glass 7 are disposed so as to face each other, and the back side polarizing plate 2 and the front side polarizing plate 6 face each other therebetween. Are arranged to be. The liquid crystal layer 3 is disposed between the back side polarizing plate 2 and the front side polarizing plate 6, and the touch panel 4 and the positive C layer 5 are positioned next to each other, and the liquid crystal layer 3 and the front side polarizing plate are disposed. 6 is arranged. Thus, in the liquid crystal display device with a touch panel of the present invention, since the touch panel 4 and the positive C layer 5 are arranged adjacent to each other, the negative C property of the transparent polyimide substrate constituting the touch panel 4 is low. Optical compensation is performed by the positive C layer 5 and display disturbance is improved.
また、本発明のタッチパネル付き液晶表示装置において、ポジティブＣ層は、図１に示すように、タッチパネル４と前面側偏光板６との間に、すなわち、タッチパネル４の前面側の隣に配置されていてもよいし、図２に示すように、液晶層３とタッチパネル４との間に、すなわち、タッチパネル４の液晶層側の隣に配置されていてもよい。 Further, in the liquid crystal display device with a touch panel of the present invention, the positive C layer is disposed between the touch panel 4 and the front polarizing plate 6, that is, next to the front side of the touch panel 4 as shown in FIG. 1. Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 2, it may be disposed between the liquid crystal layer 3 and the touch panel 4, that is, adjacent to the liquid crystal layer side of the touch panel 4.
さらに、本発明のタッチパネル付き液晶表示装置において、タッチパネル４は、透明ポリイミド基板が１層のもの（図１及び図２）であっても、２層のもの（図面なし）であってもよい。透明ポリイミド基板が２層の場合、一方の透明ポリイミド基板が、ポジティブＣ層とともに液晶層３と前面側偏光板６との間に配置されていれば、他方の透明ポリイミド基板は、ポジティブＣ層とともに液晶層３と前面側偏光板６との間に配置されていても、前面側偏光板６とカバーガラス７との間に配置されていてもよい（後者の場合、ポジティブＣ層は任意）。 Furthermore, in the liquid crystal display device with a touch panel of the present invention, the touch panel 4 may be a single layer (FIGS. 1 and 2) or two layers (not shown) of the transparent polyimide substrate. When the transparent polyimide substrate has two layers, if one transparent polyimide substrate is disposed between the liquid crystal layer 3 and the front-side polarizing plate 6 together with the positive C layer, the other transparent polyimide substrate is combined with the positive C layer. Even if it is arrange | positioned between the liquid crystal layer 3 and the front side polarizing plate 6, you may arrange | position between the front side polarizing plate 6 and the cover glass 7 (in the latter case, a positive C layer is arbitrary).
本発明において、タッチパネル４は、ネガティブＣ性の透明ポリイミド基板を有するものであれば特に制限はないが、通常、透明ポリイミド基板の表面に透明電極が配置されたものである（透明電極は図示せず。）。前記透明電極としては特に制限はないが、タッチパネル用基板としてネガティブＣ性の透明ポリイミド基板を用いる利点を十分に生かすという観点から、ＩＴＯ透明電極が好ましい。上述したように、本発明においては、耐熱性に優れた透明ポリイミド基板をタッチパネル用基板として用いているため、透明ポリイミド基板の表面に透明電極を形成する際に、高温（好ましくは１８０℃以上）での加熱処理が可能となり、導電性に優れた透明電極を形成することが可能となる。なお、前記ネガティブＣ性の透明ポリイミド基板は、下記式：
