<p>A capacitive touch panel has a plurality of first transparent electrodes and a plurality of second transparent electrodes on a transparent substrate. At crossing portions between the first and second electrodes, adjacent electrodes of the second electrodes have no interruption, and adjacent electrodes of the first electrodes are interrupted. An interlayer insulating film is disposed as an upper layer on the second electrodes, and a bridge electrode is disposed as an upper layer on the interlayer insulating film to connect interrupted portions of the first electrodes at the crossing portions. The material constituting the bridge electrode contains an element that is more susceptible to oxidation than elements contained in a material constituting the second electrodes. Constant voltage is applied to the first electrodes, and a pulse voltage having a low potential equal to or higher than the potential of the first electrodes is applied to the second electrodes.</p> |
