- With development of a display technology, a touch panel technology enters a period of rapid development. Since a capacitive touch panel has characteristics, such as precise and sensitive positioning, good touch feel and a long service life, it attracts more and more attention. The touch panel can be divided into a mutual-capacitive touch panel and a self-capacitive touch panel according to touching modes. The mutual-capacitive touch panel can implement multi-point touch, so the mutual-capacitive touch panel becomes a mainstream of a touch panel market at present and a future trend of development.

Based on the described embodiments herein, those skilled in the art can obtain other embodiment(s), without any creative work, which shall be within the scope of the disclosure.
- As shown in
FIG. 1 , a touch structure applied to a mutual-capacitive touch panel includes afirst touch electrode 10 and asecond touch electrode 20 arranged perpendicular to each other. Thefirst touch electrode 10 includes a plurality of firsttouch electrode blocks 101 arranged at intervals, adjacent firsttouch electrode blocks 101 being connected through abridge 102. Thesecond touch electrode 20 includes a plurality of secondtouch electrode blocks 201 directly connected. The firsttouch electrode block 101 and thesecond touch electrode 20 are formed by a same patterning process, i.e., the firsttouch electrode block 101 and thesecond touch electrode 20 are disposed in a same layer. - The inventors notice that, since insulation is required between the first
touch electrode block 101 and thesecond touch electrode 20, it is necessary to etch atrench 30 between the two electrode blocks in an etching process. Due to effect of factors, such as material, thickness and production line process capability of a transparent conductive thin film, widths of thesetrenches 30 are mostly above 10 μm (for an out-cell touch panel, a width of the trench may even reach 20 μm or 30 μm). On such basis, when a display substrate is not lit or lit at a low gray scale, as irradiated with a reflected light, trenches 30 at different locations reflect light regularly, which can macroscopically produce significant stripes which are alternately dark and bright, resulting in a serious shadow dispelling phenomenon, and it is difficult to completely solve the shadow dispelling phenomenon by adjusting the etching process. - An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a
touch structure 01, as shown inFIG. 2a ,FIG. 3a andFIG. 4a , thetouch structure 01 including a plurality of repeatingunits 02, as shown inFIG. 2b ,FIG. 3b andFIG. 4b . Each repeatingunit 02 includes afirst touch electrode 10 and asecond touch electrode 20 intersecting with and insulated from each other. Thefirst touch electrodes 10 are connected in a bridging manner. Adummy electrode 40 is also provided in a region of each repeatingunit 02 not provided with thefirst touch electrode 10 and thesecond touch electrode 20. - A
first trench 301 and asecond trench 302 are provided respectively between thedummy electrode 40 and thefirst touch electrode 10 and between thedummy electrode 40 and thesecond touch electrode 20; and athird trench 303 is provided between dummy electrodes located in adjacent repeating units. - The
dummy electrode 40 includes at least twosub-dummy electrodes 401, and afourth trench 304 is provided between adjacentsub-dummy electrodes 401 located in any one of thedummy electrodes 40. - Edges of the
first trench 301, thesecond trench 302, thethird trench 303 and thefourth trench 304 all have a plurality of bending points. - It is noted that:
- The number and a size of the repeating
unit 02 in thetouch structure 01 may be selected to be different numbers and values, which can be adjusted according to a size and touch accuracy of the touch panel. - Since the
first touch electrode 10 and thesecond touch electrode 20 are intersecting with and insulated from each other, when thefirst touch electrode 10 is being formed, thefirst touch electrode 10 needs to be disconnected at a position intersecting with thesecond touch electrode 20, and on such basis, the disconnectedfirst touch electrode 10 is connected through thebridge 102. Thebridge 102 is connected with the disconnectedfirst touch electrode 10 respectively through a via hole provided on a protective layer. Thebridge 102 may be made of, for example, indium tin oxide (ITO), aluminum zinc oxide (AZO), or a metal material, such as silver (Ag). - In addition, shapes and sizes of the
first touch electrode 10 and thesecond touch electrode 20 may be selected to be different values. For example, they may be set according to touch sensitivity, applicable IC, or the like; however, the embodiment of the present disclosure is not limited thereto. - In the embodiment of the present disclosure, for example, the
first touch electrode 10 and thesecond touch electrode 20 are provided perpendicular to each other as a whole. - With respect to the
dummy electrode 40, since it is provided in a region where thefirst touch electrode 10 and thesecond touch electrode 20 are not provided in each repeatingunit 02, a position and a size of thedummy electrode 40 in each repeatingunit 02 are related to the shapes and the sizes of thefirst touch electrode 10 and thesecond touch electrode 20. - For example, a
dummy electrode 40 is provided in each separated region where thefirst touch electrode 10 and thesecond touch electrode 20 are not provided. - The number of
sub-dummy electrodes 401 in eachdummy electrode 40 may be any number greater than 2. However, in consideration that the size of the dummy electrode 40 per se will not be too large, if the number ofsub-dummy electrodes 401 is too large, on the one hand, it is difficult to fabricate it, and on the other hand, it will be not better to improve a shadow dispelling effect. In this way, the number ofsub-dummy electrodes 401 may be appropriately set according to the shadow dispelling effect in actual use. - For example, the number of
sub-dummy electrodes 401 in eachdummy electrode 40 is equal. - In addition, since the number of
sub-dummy electrodes 401 in thedummy electrode 40 is equal to or greater than 2, the number of thefourth trenches 304 in eachcorresponding dummy electrode 40 is equal to or greater than 1. - When the number of the
fourth trenches 304 in eachdummy electrode 40 is equal to or greater than 2, space between adjacentfourth trenches 304 can be selected. - The number of bending points of edges of the
first trench 301, thesecond trench 302, thethird trench 303 and thefourth trench 304 can be selected. For example, in operation, the number of bending points of the edges of the respective trenches may be set according to the shadow dispelling effect. - In addition, the bending point may be relatively smooth, or may be relatively sharp; however, the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto. Shapes of the
first trench 301, thesecond trench 302, thethird trench 303 and thefourth trench 304 can be selected to improve the shadow dispelling effect. - Exemplarily, the shape of the
first trench 301 may be generally L-shaped, and the shapes of thesecond trench 302, thethird trench 303 and thefourth trench 304 may be generally strip-shaped; however, the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto. - The embodiments of the present disclosure provide a
touch structure 01; by providing adummy electrode 40 in each repeatingunit 02 of thetouch structure 01, afirst trench 301 and asecond trench 302 may be respectively formed between thedummy electrode 40 and thefirst touch electrode 10 and between thedummy electrode 40 and thesecond touch electrode 20; in addition, a third trench is formed between thedummy electrodes 40 in adjacent repeatingunits 02; and by dividing thedummy electrode 40 into at least 2sub-dummy electrodes 401, afourth trench 304 may be formed between thesub-dummy electrodes 401. In this way, a plurality of trenches are formed to allow thetouch structure 01 to generate a mixed and disorderly visual feeling, so as to avoid generating regular reflection. In this way, it can improve the shadow dispelling phenomenon. In addition, the edges of these trenches all have a plurality of bending points, with respect to a relatively smooth straight line, the human eyes are not sensitive to an edge curve of the trench having the bending points, which can further improve the shadow dispelling phenomenon. - For example, the
dummy electrode 40 is provided in a same layer and made of a same material as thefirst touch electrode 10 and thesecond touch electrode 20. In this way, the fabrication process can be simplified. - For example, as shown in
FIGS. 2-4 , the number ofdummy electrodes 40 in the repeatingunit 02 is 4, andadjacent dummy electrodes 40 are symmetrically provided along at least one of thefirst touch electrode 10 and thesecond touch electrode 20. - For example, as shown in
FIG. 2b , twodummy electrodes 40 located above and twodummy electrodes 40 located below are all symmetrically arranged along thesecond touch electrode 20, and twodummy electrodes 40 located on the left side and twodummy electrodes 40 located on the right side are all symmetrically arranged along thefirst touch electrode 10. - In the embodiments of the present disclosure, with respect to at least one of the
first touch electrode 10 and thesecond touch electrode 20, twoadjacent dummy electrodes 40 are arranged symmetrically, which can allow thefirst trench 301 and thesecond trench 302 to be formed respectively between thedummy electrode 40 and thefirst touch electrode 10 and between thedummy electrode 40 and thesecond touch electrode 20 to be distributed in each repeatingunit 02 more evenly; and even if all the trenches in the repeatingunit 02 are relatively mixed and disorderly, a better shadow dispelling effect can be resulted as long as they are evenly distributed. - For example, the
fourth trench 304 is provided along a diagonal direction of the repeatingunit 02. - The
fourth trench 304 may be provided in a diagonal direction as shown inFIG. 2b andFIG. 4b , and may also be provided in a diagonal direction as shown inFIG. 3 b. - In the embodiments of the present disclosure, since the edges of the
fourth trench 304 has a plurality of bending curves, the human eyes are not sensitive to the edge cruves; and when the trench is provided along the diagonal direction of the repeatingunit 02, light can be scattered to a larger angle with respect to the perpendicular direction, so as to further improve the shadow dispelling effect. - For example, as shown in
FIG. 2b andFIG. 4b , for twoopposite dummy electrodes 40 located on one diagonal line within any one repeatingunit 02, the direction of thefourth trench 304 coincides with the diagonal direction. - With respect to the direction for providing the
fourth trench 304 inFIG. 3b , 1when thefourth trench 304 is provided in the direction as shown inFIG. 2b andFIG. 4b , the best shadow dispelling effect can be achieved. - For example, as shown in
FIG. 2b , for anydummy electrode 40, the number offourth trenches 304 is 2; and onefourth trench 304 has its orthographic projection at least partially coincident with the diagonal line, and the otherfourth trench 304 is close to thesecond touch electrode 20. - The orthographic projection is just projection along a direction perpendicular to the touch panel, when the
touch structure 01 is applied to the touch panel. - In
ally dummy electrode 40, a length of the diagonal line is the greatest, when the orthographic projection of thefourth trench 304 partially coincides with the diagonal line, the length of thefourth trench 304 can be maximized, and the number of bending points of thefourth trench 304 may be accordingly set to be more, so that the best shadow dispelling effect can be achieved. - For example, the number of bending points of the
third trench 303 is greater than 5; however, the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto. - When the number of bending points of the
third trench 303 is too small, it equivalent to a smooth straight line, which results in an unsatisfactory shadow dispelling effect. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, according to a minimum size of the repeatingunit 02 in practical application, the number of bending points of thethird trench 303 is at least greater than 5, which is, for example, 9; however, the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto. - For example, the number of bending points of the
second trench 302 is greater than 8; however, the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto. - When the number of bending points of the
second trench 302 is too small, it is equivalent to a smooth straight line, which results in an unsatisfactory shadow dispelling effect Furthermore, since the length of thesecond trench 302 is relatively long, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, according to the minimum size of the repeatingunit 02, the number of bending points of thesecond trench 302 is at least greater than 8, which is, for example, 11; however, the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto. - For example, a width of a portion of the
first touch electrode 10 intersecting with thesecond touch electrode 20 is 1.5 to 2.5 times the width of thesecond touch electrode 20. - By setting the widths of the
first touch electrode 10 and thesecond touch electrode 20, and setting thefirst touch electrode 10 as a touch driving electrode and the second touch electrode as a touch sensing electrode, it is possible that a signal-to-noise ratio of thetouch structure 01 is relatively large, so that thetouch structure 01 is applicable to a plurality of integrated circuits (ICs), and can well support multi-point touch, such as 10-point touch; however, the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto. - It is noted that the width of the
first touch electrode 10 refers to the width of thefirst touch electrode 10 in a direction along thesecond touch electrode 20. Likewise, the width of thesecond touch electrode 20 refers to the width of thesecond touch electrode 20 in a direction along thefirst touch electrode 10. - For example, as shown in
FIG. 2a ,FIG. 3a andFIG. 4a , the size of each repeatingunit 02 in the direction along thefirst touch electrode 10 is equal to the size thereof in the direction along thesecond touch electrode 20. - It is noted that, since the
first touch electrode 10 and thesecond touch electrode 20 are arranged intersecting with each other, that is to say, thefirst touch electrode 10 is provided in a first direction, thesecond touch electrode 20 is provided in a second direction, and the first direction and the second direction are intersecting with each other, so the size of each repeatingunit 02 in the direction along thefirst touch electrode 10 refers to the size of the repeatingunit 02 along the first direction, and the size of each repeatingunit 02 in the direction along thesecond touch electrode 20 refers to the size of the repeatingunit 02 along the second direction. - For example, the size of each repeating
unit 02 may be scaled in equal proportion. - For example, as shown in
FIG. 2a ,FIG. 3a andFIG. 4a , the size of each repeatingunit 02 in the direction along thefirst touch electrode 10 and the size thereof in the direction along thesecond touch electrode 20 are both 3 mm to 8 mm; however, the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto. - Since the size of the repeating
unit 02 in thetouch structure 01 can be set relatively large, it is possible to use a driver IC with a small number of channels, so as to reduce costs. - An embodiment of the present disclosure also provides a touch panel, the touch panel including a display panel and the described
touch structure 01. - It is noted that the display panel according to the embodiments of the present disclosure may be a liquid crystal display panel, or may be an organic electroluminescent diode display panel; however, the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto. For example, it may also be other types of display panel.
- When the display panel is a liquid crystal display panel, an array substrate in the display panel may include a thin film transistor, and a pixel electrode electrically connected with a drain electrode of the thin film transistor. On such basis, the array substrate may further include a common electrode. In an instance that the array substrate is an In-Plane Switch (IPS) type, the pixel electrode and the common electrode are provided in a same layer at intervals, and both are strip electrodes. For an array substrate of an Advanced-super Dimensional Switching (ADS) type, the pixel electrode and the common electrode are provided in different layers, the upper electrode is a strip electrode, and the lower electrode is a plate electrode. The display panel further includes a color filter substrate.
- When the display panel is an organic electroluminescent diode display panel, the array substrate in the display panel may include a thin film transistor, an anode electrically connected with the drain electrode of the thin film transistor, and it may also include a cathode and an organic material functional layer. The organic material functional layer includes at least a light-emitting layer, and may further include an electron-transport layer and a hole-transport layer. On such basis, in order to improve efficiency of injecting electron and hole into the light-emitting layer, it may further include an electron injection layer provided between the cathode and the electron transport layer, and a hole injection layer provided between the anode and the hole transport layer. The display panel may further include a packaging layer. The packaging layer may be either a thin film package or a substrate package.
- The touch panel according to the embodiments of the present disclosure may be either an out-cell touch panel or an in-cell touch panel.
- In an instance that the touch panel is an in-cell touch panel, the embodiment of the present disclosure is, for example, an on cell touch panel.
- For example, when the display panel is a liquid crystal display panel, as shown in
FIG. 5 , the display panel of the touch panel includes anarray substrate 60, acolor filter substrate 80, and aliquid crystal layer 70 located between thearray substrate 60 and thecolor filter substrate 80. The touch panel may further include anupper polarizer 90 located on a light emergent side of thecolor filter substrate 80 and alower polarizer 50 located on a light incident side of thearray substrate 60. The above-describedtouch structure 01 may be provided between thecolor filter substrate 80 and theupper polarizer 90. - A fabricating process, for example, may include: preparing the
array substrate 60 and thecolor filter substrate 80, then forming the liquid crystal display panel by assembling thearray substrate 60 and thecolor filter substrate 80; forming the describedtouch structure 01 above thecolor filter substrate 80, forming theupper polarizer 90 above thetouch structure 01, and forming thelower polarizer 50 below thearray substrate 60. The forming of thetouch structure 01 may be, for example: ITO coating; coating photoresist; exposing, developing; etching; forming asecond touch electrode 20 directly electrically connected, and afirst touch electrode 10 disconnected at a position where it intersects with thesecond touch electrode 20; then forming a protective layer, the protective layer including a via hole; then performing metal coating; coating photoresist; exposing; developing; etching and forming abridge 102, thebridge 102 being connected with the disconnectedfirst touch electrode 10 through the described via hole. - In an instance that the touch panel is an out-cell touch panel, it may include touch panels of two structures as follows.
- The touch panel of a first structure: the touch panel may further include protective glass; the
touch structure 01 being disposed between the protective glass and the display panel, and thetouch structure 01 being in contact with the protective glass. - That is, it is possible to firstly form the
touch structure 01 on the protective glass, then assembling the protective glass, and the display panel, or the like, and allow thetouch structure 01 formed on the protective glass to be disposed close to the display panel. - The protective glass is bonded to the outermost side of the light emergent side of the touch panel, and plays a protective role; and the
touch structure 01 is disposed below the protective glass. When a human finger touches a surface of the protective glass, thetouch structure 01 can sense it so as to identify a corresponding touch. - It is noted that, as shown in
FIG. 6 , in an instance that the display panel is a liquid crystal display panel, the touch panel also include anupper polarizer 90 and alower polarizer 50. Since theprotective glass 100 is located on the outermost side, for a touch panel of a liquid crystal type, itsprotective glass 100 is located above theupper polarizer 90. Since thetouch structure 01 is in contact with theprotective glass 100, it is located between theprotective glass 100 and theupper polarizer 90. Theprotective glass 100 provided with thetouch structure 01 is connected with theupper polarizer 90 through an Optical Clear Resin (OCR) 110. - In an instance the display panel is an organic electroluminescent diode display panel, the
touch structure 01 is located between theprotective glass 100 and the packaging layer. - For the touch panel as shown in
FIG. 6 , its fabricating process, for example, may include: preparing anarray substrate 60 and acolor filter substrate 80, then forming the liquid crystal display panel by assembling thearray substrate 60 and thecolor filter substrate 80; forming anupper polarizer 90 above thecolor filter substrate 80, and forming alower polarizer 50 below thearray substrate 60; and preparing the above-describedtouch structure 01 above theprotective glass 100. In addition, it may possibly include forming a light-shielding layer for shielding lines and for functioning as an ornament on theprotective glass 100; then connecting theprotective glass 100 having thetouch structure 01 formed thereon and theupper polarizer 90 through theOCR 110. The preparing thetouch structure 01 may include, for example: ITO coating; coating photoresist; exposing; developing; etching; forming asecond touch electrode 20 directly electrically connected; and afirst touch electrode 10 disconnected at a position where it intersects with thesecond touch electrode 20; then forming a protective layer, the protective layer including a via hole, then performing metal coating; coating photoresist; exposing; developing; etching and forming abridge 102, thebridge 102 being connected with the disconnectedfirst touch electrode 10 through the above-described via hole. - The touch panel of a second structure: the
touch structure 01 may be disposed on a substrate, and the substrate disposed with thetouch structure 01 may be disposed between theprotective glass 100 and the display panel. - That is, it is possible to firstly form the
touch structure 01 on the substrate, then bond the substrate provided with thetouch structure 01 on theprotective glass 100, and finally assembling theprotective glass 100, the display panel, or the like, to allow thetouch structure 01 formed on theprotective glass 100 to be disposed close to the display panel. - Herein, since the substrate is required to bear the
touch structure 01, it is required some certain hardness, and further, it is required to satisfy certain optical transparency. The substrate may be made of an optical plastic, for example, Polyethylene terephthalate (PET), Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) plastic, or the like; however, the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto. - It is noted that, as shown in
FIG. 7 , in an instance that the display panel is a liquid crystal display panel, the touch panel also includes anupper polarizer 90 and alower polarizer 50. Since theprotective glass 100 is located on the outermost side, for the touch panel of a liquid crystal type, itsprotective glass 100 is located above theupper polarizer 90. Since thesubstrate 120 provided with thetouch structure 01 is in contact with theprotective glass 100, it is located between theprotective glass 100 and theupper polarizer 90. Theprotective glass 100 provided with thetouch structure 01 is connected with theupper polarizer 90 through theOCR 110. - In an instance that the display panel is an organic electroluminescent diode display panel, the
substrate 120 provided with thetouch structure 01 is located between theprotective glass 100 and the packaging layer. - An embodiment of the present disclosure also provides a display device, the display device including the described touch panel.
- The described display device, for example, can be any one of products or parts with a touch function, such as a liquid crystal display, an organic electroluminescent diode display, a mobile phone, a tablet personal computer or the like.
- The embodiments of the present disclosure provide a touch structure, a touch panel and a display device; by providing the dummy electrode in each repeating unit of the touch structure, the first trench and the second trench may be respectively formed between the dummy electrode and the first touch electrode and between the dummy electrode and the second touch electrode; in addition, the third trench is formed between the dummy electrodes in the adjacent repeating units; and by dividing the dummy electrode into at least 2 sub-dummy electrodes, the fourth trench may be formed between the sub-dummy electrodes; since a plurality of trenches are provided, the touch structure is capable of generating a mixed and disorderly visual feeling, so as to avoid generating regular reflection, and thus, it can reduce the shadow dispelling phenomenon. In addition, since the edges of these trenches all have a plurality of bending points, with respect to a relatively smooth straight line, the human eyes are insensitive to an edge curve of the trench having the bending points, which can further improve the shadow dispelling phenomenon.
- The described above are only exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure, and the present disclosure is not intended to limited thereto.
