Abstract:
An upper electrode plate (1) has an optically isotropic, heat-resisting, transparent resin sheet (8) having a feature of providing a glass transition temperature of at least 150 °C and a thickness of 0.15-0.8 mm, the heat-resisting, transparent resin sheet being pasted over the entire surface thereof to a 1/4 wavelength plate (9) directly or indirectly.
Abstract:
A transparent touch panel (1) comprises an upper optical phase film (4) having a movable electrode portion (3) and capable of giving a phase delay of 1/4 wavelength to incident light with its centre frequency in the visible region, and a lower optical phase film (6) having a fixed electrode portion (5) and capable of giving a phase delay of 1/4 wavelength to incident light with its centre frequency in the visible region, the upper and lower films being separated by an empty layer (7). An upper polarizer (8) is attached to the upper surface of the touch panel (1), while a lower polarizer (9) is attached to the lower surface of a liquid crystal display (2). The optical axis of the upper film and the polarization axis of the upper polarizers make an angle of about 45 degrees. The angle of the axis of polarization of light emitted from the liquid crystal display is about 45 degrees with respect to the optical axis of the lower film. The optical axes of the upper and lower films make an angle of about 90 degrees.
Abstract:
A resistive film touch panel (8) wherein an upper electrode sheet (1) having an upper electrode (111) on one face of a flexible transparent film (9) and a hard coating layer (12) on the other face and a lower electrode sheet (2) having a lower electrode (121) confronting the upper electrode on one face of a glass substrate (10) are opposed to each other through a spacer (13) between the upper and lower electrodes and the upper and lower electrodes are bonded at their peripheries with an adhesive layer (3). The transparent film and the hard coating layer are fused at their edge portions, and a surface portion of the side edge face of the glass substrate is a compressive stress layer (10a).
Abstract:
There is provided a spacerless input device that suppresses reflection at an interface, prevents generation of Newton's rings, improves visuality, does not operate erroneously even with no provision of a dot spacer, and has a pressure sensitive function even responsive to input with a solid matter. In an input device of a resistive film type accepting multiple touches, a pressure-sensitive conductive layer and an intermediate layer are filled in a gap between a surface provided with an upper transparent electrode group of an upper transparent electrode base member and a surface provided with a lower transparent electrode group of a lower transparent electrode base member.
Abstract:
In a touch panel (8) with a film/glass structure, a transparent insulating film (11) of an upper electrode member (1) has a sloped edge (11a) in its entire periphery with the slope facing up. In a touch panel (8A) with a film/film structure, a transparent insulating film (11) of an upper electrode member (1) and a transparent insulating film (22) of a lower electrode member (2) respectively have a sloped edge (11a, 22a) in their entire peripheries with the slope facing up.
