  • Publication number: 20130307798
    Abstract: A planar touch panel is provided. The planar touch panel includes a substrate and a plurality of periphery structures. The substrate has a plurality of transparent conductive patterns, and each of the transparent conductive patterns has a first end and a second end. The width of the first end is smaller than the width of the second end. The periphery structures are disposed adjacent to the first ends of the transparent conductive patterns, and each of the periphery structures has a first conductive layer and a decoration layer. The first conductive layer is disposed on the substrate and extends toward the first end to cover the first end. The decoration layer is disposed on the substrate and the first conductive layer. The decoration layer extends toward the first conductive layer, and is formed with an opening hole on the first conductive layer.

  • Publication number: 20130285978
    Abstract: A portable electronic device includes a touch control module and a processing module. The touch control module has a substrate, a transparent conductive layer, a conductive decoration pad, a decoration layer and a non-transparent conductive layer. The transparent conductive layer is disposed on the substrate. The conductive decoration pad is disposed on the transparent conductive layer. The decoration layer is disposed on the conductive decoration pad and the transparent conductive layer, and has an opening. The non-transparent conductive layer is disposed on the decoration layer and electrically connected with the transparent conductive layer via the opening. The processing module is electrically connected with the touch control module.

  • Publication number: 20130269988
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a peripheral circuit of a touch panel includes: printing a radiation curable conductive material on a substrate having a transparent conductive pattern; irradiating the radiation curable conductive material with a radiated ray, in order to cure parts of the radiation curable conductive material; and removing uncured parts of the radiation curable conductive material, in order to form the peripheral circuit.

  • Patent number: 8497848
    Abstract: A resistive touch device with no visual color difference comprises a first transparent conductive substrate, a second transparent conductive substrate and a spacer layer. The first transparent conductive substrate with a bottom thereof has a plurality of first transparent conductive electrodes, and a first voltage difference in a first direction. The second transparent conductive substrate with a top thereof has a plurality of second transparent conductive electrodes, and a second voltage difference in a second direction. The first direction is perpendicular to the second direction. The spacer layer is formed between the first and second transparent conductive substrates, which is used for isolating the first transparent conductive electrode and the second transparent conductive electrode.

  • Publication number: 20120285810
    Abstract: An electrode and an isolation layer of a touch device are the same color, so that a user of the touch device perceives a good visual effect without having to employ expensive optical adhesive and decorative films in the touch device. The front bezel design used in conventional touch devices can thus be abandoned. Further, simpler fabrication, higher yield rate, and lower cost are also achieved.

  • Publication number: 20120256871
    Abstract: A touch panel capable of decreasing response time includes a first substrate, a second substrate, and a spacer. The first substrate has a plurality of first conductive stripes formed on a lower surface of the first substrate along a first direction. The second substrate is disposed below the first substrate. The second substrate has a plurality of second conductive stripes formed on an upper surface of the second substrate along a second direction. The spacer is arranged between the first substrate and the second substrate for forming a gap between the first substrate and the second substrate.
