Abstract: A glare-resistant touch panel has a touch-sensing layer, a polarizing filter, a diffraction layer and an anti-reflection layer. The polarizing filter is mounted on the touch-sensing layer. The diffraction layer is mounted on the polarizing filter and splits lights into different polarized angles. The anti-reflection layer is mounted on the diffraction layer. With the diffraction layer, light polarized at a specific angle are split to be polarized at different angles and are allowed to partly pass through polarized sunglasses. Hence a sunglasses wearer can still see what the screen from the touch panel displays even if the sunglasses and the polarizing filter are oriented perpendicular to each other.

Abstract: A touch panel has an upper conductive layer, a lower conductive layer, a substrate and multiple electrical connectors. The upper conductive layer has an upper film and two X-electrodes being formed adjacent to the upper film. The lower conductive layer has a lower film, two Y-electrodes and multiple through holes. The Y-electrodes are formed adjacent to the lower film and perpendicularly to the X-electrodes. Each through hole corresponds to an X or Y-electrode. The substrate has multiple wires and multiple mounting holes. Each wire is formed on a bottom of the substrate and aligned with the X or Y-electrode. The mounting holes are formed through the substrate and respectively aligned to the through holes. Each electrical connector is mounted through corresponding mounting and through holes and connects the wires and electrodes. Therefore the touch panel is easily produced with high-precision flatness.

Abstract: An optical material includes a substrate, and an optical unit formed on the substrate and including a base layer of a base polymer, an optical layer of a polymer, and a complex layer disposed between the base layer and the optical layer. The complex layer is formed by the following steps: contacting one side of the base layer with a solution containing a monomeric compound of the polymer such that the monomeric compound penetrates into the base layer so as to form a penetrated region in the base layer and that a polymerizable layer of the monomeric compound of the polymer is formed on the penetrated region; and polymerizing the monomeric compound of the polymerizable layer and the monomeric compound in the penetrated region so as to form the optical layer and the complex layer, respectively. A method for making the optical material is also disclosed.
