  • Publication number: 20140368757
    Abstract: A touch panel includes a substrate, a buffer layer, an appearance decoration layer, a touch-sensing element, and a plurality of transmission lines. The buffer layer is formed on and in contact with the substrate, and the buffer layer and the substrate are formed from mutual different materials to have different surface adhesions. The appearance decoration layer is disposed on a periphery of the substrate, and the touch-sensing element is formed on and in contact with the buffer layer. The touch-sensing element includes a plurality of capacitive coupling pads, and at least one of the capacitive coupling pads covers a part of the appearance decoration layer. The transmission lines are disposed on the appearance decoration layer and electrically connected to the touch-sensing element.

  • Publication number: 20140367242
    Abstract: A decoration cover plate and a touch panel having the decoration cover plate are provided. The decoration cover plate includes a substrate having an appearance decoration layer, an auxiliary light-shielding layer and a buffer layer stacked thereon. The buffer layer is disposed between the appearance decoration layer and the auxiliary light-shielding layer. The auxiliary light-shielding layer and the appearance decoration layer are opposite to each other. The touch panel further includes a touch-sensing element and a plurality of transmission lines. The touch-sensing element is disposed on the substrate and at least located within a transparent region of the touch panel. The transmission lines are disposed at a side of the auxiliary light-shielding layer far away from the substrate and electrically connected to the touch-sensing element.

  • Patent number: 8094260
    Abstract: A liquid crystal display (LCD) including an LCD panel and a back light module is provided. The back light module is disposed below the LCD panel. The back light module includes a planar light source, a reflective polarized light enhancement film, a first prism film and a ?/4 phase retardation film. The planar light source is disposed below the LCD panel, while the reflective polarized light enhancement film is disposed between the LCD panel and the planar light source. The first prism film is disposed between the reflective polarized light enhancement film and the planar light source. Besides, the ?/4 phase retardation film is disposed between the reflective polarized light enhancement film and the first prism film. The back light module has a relatively high light utilization rate, and the LCD has favorable display luminance.
