  • Patent number: 10522093
    Abstract: A driving circuit including an output circuit, a pull-down module, conductive wires, at least one first signal line, and a buffer layer is provided. The conductive wires are electrically connected between the output circuit and the pull-down module. The output circuit and the pull-down module are electrically coupled to a driving control signal through the first signal line. A first overlapping region is located between the first signal line and a portion of the conductive wires. The buffer layer is disposed between the first signal line and the portion of the conductive wires. The buffer layer includes an overlapping portion and an extending portion. The overlapping portion is at least disposed in the first overlapping region. The extending portion is disposed outside the overlapping portion. A thickness of the overlapping portion is greater than a thickness of the extending portion. A display panel is also provided.

  • Publication number: 20070292659
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a high transmittance touch panel, which comprises a substrate and at least one multi-layer anti-reflection coating structure coated on the front side of the substrate. The multi-layer anti-reflection coating structure is a four-layer structure, and the refractive indexes of those layers are high, low, high, and low sequentially from the side neighboring the substrate. The outmost layer is a protective layer having a refractive index within from 1.3 to 1.5 and a thickness of at least 0.1 ?m and a hardness reaching 9H of ASTM-D3363. Via the protective layer, not only the transmittance of the touch panel of the present invention can reach over 92% according to ASTM-D1003, but also the abrasion resistance of the touch panel surface can be enhanced.
