Description
各種のタッチパネルのうち、静電容量型のタッチパネルは、一般的に、センサガラスと呼ばれるガラス基板上に、例えば、x方向およびy方向に延在する入力位置検出用の透明導電膜(透明電極)等を形成することで、センサ機能部を形成している。
一般的な静電容量型タッチパネルは、透明導電膜等が形成されたセンサガラスとカバーガラスと呼ばれるガラスを、接着することで構成される。 Touch panels are used in smartphones and tablet computers.
Among various types of touch panels, a capacitive touch panel is generally a transparent conductive film (transparent electrode) for detecting an input position extending on, for example, an x direction and a y direction on a glass substrate called a sensor glass. Etc. are formed to form the sensor function unit.
A general capacitive touch panel is configured by adhering a sensor glass on which a transparent conductive film or the like is formed and a glass called a cover glass.
すなわち、この静電容量型タッチパネルは、強化ガラスをカバーガラスとして用い、このカバーガラスに、入力位置検出用の透明導電膜等を形成することで、カバーガラスとセンサ部とを一体型とした構成を有する(センサ一体型カバーガラス)。 On the other hand, as shown in Patent Document 1, it is also known that a capacitive touch panel eliminates the sensor glass to reduce the number of parts, and reduce the thickness and weight.
That is, this capacitive touch panel uses a tempered glass as a cover glass, and the cover glass and the sensor unit are integrated by forming a transparent conductive film for detecting an input position on the cover glass. (Sensor-integrated cover glass).
強化ガラスの製造方法としては、加熱と冷却によるガラスの膨張と収縮を利用して、強化層を形成する物理強化法(風冷強化法)と、ガラス中のアルカリイオンをよりイオン半径の大きな他のアルカリイオンと交換することで、強化層を形成する化学強化法が知られている。
タッチパネルのカバーガラスなどの薄いガラスでは、一般的に、化学強化法による強化ガラス、いわゆる化学強化ガラスが利用される。 The tempered glass is a glass whose strength is increased by forming a tempered layer (compressive stress layer) on the surface and applying a compressive stress.
The tempered glass is manufactured by a physical tempering method (air-cooling tempering method) that forms a tempered layer using the expansion and contraction of the glass by heating and cooling, as well as alkali ions in the glass with a larger ionic radius. A chemical strengthening method is known in which a reinforcing layer is formed by exchanging with alkali ions.
In thin glass such as a cover glass of a touch panel, tempered glass by a chemical tempering method, so-called chemically tempered glass is generally used.
そのため、センサ一体型カバーガラスでは、カバーガラスと同等もしくはそれ以上の強度を確保することが求められている。 By the way, in the sensor-integrated cover glass, in order to realize a touch panel with excellent durability, it is important that the cover glass to be operated has sufficient strength.
For this reason, the sensor-integrated cover glass is required to have a strength equal to or higher than that of the cover glass.
なお、図1(A)~1(D)において、図1(A)は、平面図すなわちセンサ一体型カバーガラス10をガラス板12の面方向(以下、この方向を、単に面方向とする)と直交する方向から見た際の一部であり、図1(B)は、図1(A)のb-b線断面を、図1(C)は、図1(A)のc-c線断面を、それぞれ示す図である。さらに、図1(D)は、センサ一体型カバーガラス10の、x方向の端部近傍のx方向の断面を概念的に示す図である。 1A to 1D conceptually show an example of a sensor-integrated cover glass of the present invention.

本発明のセンサ一体型カバーガラスは、図示例の構成に限定はされず、静電容量形タッチパネルを操作する面を構成するガラス板に、センサを構成する透明導電膜等を形成してなる、公知のセンサ一体型カバーガラスの構成が、各種、利用可能である。 The sensor-integrated
The sensor-integrated cover glass of the present invention is not limited to the configuration of the illustrated example, and is formed by forming a transparent conductive film or the like that constitutes the sensor on a glass plate that constitutes a surface on which the capacitive touch panel is operated. Various configurations of known sensor-integrated cover glass can be used.

また、第1透明導電膜14および第2透明導電膜16と、ガラス板12との間には、下地絶縁膜26が形成される。この下地絶縁膜26に関しては、後に詳述する。なお、下地絶縁膜26と第1透明導電膜14および第2透明導電膜16との間に別の膜が設けられていても構わない。例えばSiO2等の無機膜が設けられていても構わない。 In the sensor-integrated

大面積部14aおよび大面積部16aは、互いに離間して、x方向およびy方向に交互になるように配列され、入力位置検出を向上させるために設けられる。従って、第1透明導電膜14と第2透明導電膜16とは、接続部14bと接続部16bとで交差するように形成される。 In the sensor-integrated

従って、ガラス板において、引張応力がかかるセンサ面の面強度が低いというのは、センサ一体型カバーガラスでは、重大な問題となりうる。 As described above, the operation of the device in which the sensor-integrated cover glass is incorporated is performed on the operation surface on the side opposite to the sensor surface on which the transparent conductive film is formed. That is, the glass plate usually receives a pressing force from the operation surface side, and a tensile stress is applied to the sensor surface.
Therefore, in the glass plate, the low surface strength of the sensor surface to which tensile stress is applied can be a serious problem in the sensor-integrated cover glass.
なお、このように、下地絶縁膜26のパターニングを行う必要が有る場合には、下地絶縁膜26は、フォトレジストで形成するのが好ましい。 Further, as shown in FIGS. 1C and 1D, the

言い換えると、図1(A)~1(D)に示すセンサ一体型カバーガラスにおいて、ジャンパ部の透明導電膜の下に下地絶縁膜を有さず、かつ、交差部絶縁膜が、ジャンパ部以外の第1透明導電膜および第2透明導電膜とガラス板との間まで延在して、下地絶縁膜として作用するものである。 That is, the sensor-integrated
In other words, the sensor-integrated cover glass shown in FIGS. 1A to 1D does not have a base insulating film under the transparent conductive film of the jumper portion, and the cross-section insulating film is other than the jumper portion. This extends between the first transparent conductive film and the second transparent conductive film and the glass plate, and acts as a base insulating film.
一方で、図1(A)~1(D)に示されるセンサ一体型カバーガラス10は、ジャンパ部の下にも下地絶縁膜を有するので、ガラス板12の強度的に、有利である。 When manufacturing the sensor-integrated
On the other hand, the sensor-integrated
まず、板厚0.7mmのアルミノケイ酸ガラス(アルミノシリケートガラス)を用意した。このガラスを化学強化した後、50mm角に切断を行った。
化学強化条件の依存性を調べるため、化学強化は、異なる2種類の化学強化条件を用いて行った。各化学強化条件で得られたガラス板は、それぞれ、CS(compressive stress)が647MPaでDOL(depth of layer)が21μm、CSが630MPaでDOL49μmであった。
以下、便宜的に、CSが647MPaでDOLが21μmのガラス板をガラス板A、CSが630MPaでDOL49μmのガラス板をガラス板Bとする。 EXAMPLES Next, although an Example demonstrates this invention still in detail, this invention is not limited to these Examples at all.
First, an aluminosilicate glass (aluminosilicate glass) having a thickness of 0.7 mm was prepared. After this glass was chemically strengthened, it was cut into 50 mm squares.
In order to investigate the dependence of chemical strengthening conditions, chemical strengthening was performed using two different types of chemical strengthening conditions. The glass plates obtained under each chemical strengthening condition had a CS (compressive stress) of 647 MPa, a DOL (depth of layer) of 21 μm, and a CS of 630 MPa and a DOL of 49 μm.
Hereinafter, for convenience, a glass plate having a CS of 647 MPa and a DOL of 21 μm is referred to as a glass plate A, and a glass plate having a CS of 630 MPa and a DOL of 49 μm is referred to as a glass plate B.
ガラス板AにITOのみを成膜したサンプルを比較例1、ガラス板BにITOのみを成膜したサンプルを比較例2、ガラス板Aに下地絶縁膜およびITOを成膜したサンプルを実施例1、および、ガラス板Bに下地絶縁膜およびITOを成膜したサンプルを実施例2、とする。 Subsequently, a sample having an ITO film formed on the entire surface by sputtering and an underlying insulating film formed on the entire surface by spin coating on the obtained glass plate, and then an ITO film was similarly formed on the entire surface. Membrane samples were made. Here, the ITO film was formed to a thickness of 100 nm, and the base insulating film was formed to a thickness of 1.2 μm. In addition, an acrylic resin was used for the base insulating film.
A sample in which only ITO is formed on the glass plate A is Comparative Example 1, a sample in which only ITO is formed on the glass plate B is Comparative Example 2, and a sample in which the base insulating film and ITO are formed on the glass plate A is Example 1. A sample in which a base insulating film and ITO are formed on a glass plate B is referred to as Example 2.
図5(A)及び5(B)はBOR(Ball on Ring)と呼ばれるガラス板の面強度試験方法を概念的に示す図で、図5(A)は平面図、図5(B)は側面図である。図5(A)及び5(B)に示すように、リング状の支持部Sの上に、中心を一致して、ITOの形成面を支持部S側に向けてサンプルGを載置し、支持部Sの中心上からサンプルGとの接触部が半径5mmの球状の荷重部Lを押しつけて荷重をかけることで、各サンプルGの面強度を測定した。支持部Sの直径は30mm(支持部Sの中心を基準)とした。
各サンプルおよびガラス板の面強度の測定結果を以下の表1に示す。 For each of the obtained samples, the surface strength of each sample was measured by a method as shown in FIGS. 5 (A) and 5 (B). Moreover, the same surface strength measurement was also performed on the glass plate A and the glass plate B.
5 (A) and 5 (B) are diagrams conceptually showing a surface strength test method of a glass plate called BOR (Ball on Ring), FIG. 5 (A) is a plan view, and FIG. 5 (B) is a side view. FIG. As shown in FIGS. 5 (A) and 5 (B), the sample G is placed on the ring-shaped support portion S so that the centers coincide with each other and the ITO formation surface faces the support portion S side. The surface strength of each sample G was measured by applying a load by pressing a spherical load portion L having a radius of 5 mm from the center of the support portion S. The diameter of the support portion S was 30 mm (referenced to the center of the support portion S).
The measurement results of the surface strength of each sample and glass plate are shown in Table 1 below.
これに対し、実施例1および2、ならびに、ガラス板AおよびBの面強度の測定結果から、ガラス板上にITOを成膜したとしても、下地絶縁膜を成膜することで、ガラス板のITO成膜面が、ITO成膜前の強度と同等の面強度を確保することが出来きることが確認された。すなわち、本発明のセンサ一体型カバーガラスによれば、センサ面の面強度を十分に確保した、耐久性に優れる、スマートフォンやタブレット型コンピュータ等のタッチセンサを実現できる。 As can be seen from Comparative Examples 1 and 2 in Table 1 and the measurement results of the surface strength of the glass plates A and B, when ITO is formed on the glass plate regardless of the chemical strengthening conditions, the glass is formed on the ITO film formation surface. The surface strength of the plate is reduced. From this result, it can be seen that the conventional sensor-integrated cover glass has low surface strength of the sensor surface.
On the other hand, from the measurement results of the surface strengths of Examples 1 and 2 and glass plates A and B, even if ITO was formed on the glass plate, by forming the base insulating film, It was confirmed that the ITO film-forming surface can secure the surface strength equivalent to the strength before the ITO film-forming. That is, according to the sensor-integrated cover glass of the present invention, it is possible to realize a touch sensor such as a smartphone or a tablet computer that has a sufficient sensor surface strength and excellent durability.
