TOUCHSCREEN AND CONDUCTIVE LAYER THEREOF

摘要

The present invention relates to a conductive layer of a touch screen, the conductive layer is a mesh composed of metal wires, the mesh comprises a plurality of mesh cells, the mesh cell comprises a plurality of mesh edges and nodes formed by connecting two adjacent edges, the conductive layer comprises a sensing region and a wire region which is electrically connected to the sensing region, the sensing region comprises a plurality of first sensing patterns and a plurality of second sensing patterns, the first sensing pattern and the second sensing pattern is adjacent and electrically insulated from each other, the mesh cells in each first sensing pattern are electrically connected with each other, the mesh cells in each second sensing pattern are electrically connected with each other. The present invention further relates to a touch screen. The conductive layer has a structure of metal mesh, which can be manufactured by embossing process, compared to the conventional process which uses ITO as a conductive layer, mesh shape can be one-step formed, the process is simple, the yield is high. And the material cost is greatly reduced using metal instead of ITO, since no etching process is used, the conductive material will not be wasted, and it reduces heavy metal emission in the waste liquid.
