  • Publication number: 20120090875
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a conductive film. The conductive film includes: a base member; a transparent electrode formed on the base member; and electrode wirings connected to one side or both sides of the transparent electrode and having a first metal layer formed on the lower portion thereof and a second metal layer made of a metal different from the first metal layer and formed to be thicker than the thickness of the first metal layer stacked on the upper portion thereof.

  • Publication number: 20120081329
    Abstract: Disclosed is a digital resistive type touch panel, including a transparent substrate, a plurality of bar-shaped transparent electrodes mutually formed in parallel in an X-axis direction on the transparent substrate, and electrode wires extending from either or both ends of the bar-shaped transparent electrodes and bundled to one side in a Y-axis direction of the transparent substrate, wherein the bar-shaped transparent electrodes become wider as becoming more distant from one side in the Y-axis direction of the transparent substrate. Thus because the bar-shaped transparent electrodes become wider as the electrode wires get longer, errors can be prevented from occurring when touch coordinates are determined, making it possible for information to be precisely input using the digital resistive type touch panel.
