Abstract:
A method of inspecting a sensor sheet formed by a roll-to-roll scheme for a touch sensor, the sensor sheet including a roll sheet and a sensor electrode layer thereon, the sensor electrode layer including sensor electrodes running in a prescribed direction, the sensor sheet further including a terminal connected to the sensor electrode layer and alignment marks, the method including: arranging the sensor sheet on an inspection table of an inspection device, the inspection table having an alignment mark and inspection electrodes running in another prescribed direction such that at least one of the alignment marks aligns with the alignment mark on the inspection table and such that the inspection electrodes face the sensor electrodes orthogonally in a plan view and are vertically separated by a dielectric to form capacitances at respective intersections therebetween; measuring the capacitances at the respective intersections; and outputting the measured capacitances as an inspection result.
Abstract:
Provided is a method for inspecting a touch panel with which method it is possible to perform an inspection with high accuracy and to allow an improvement in yield. A drive signal is supplied to either one of sensor electrodes (12) and an inspection electrode (142), a plurality of sense signals related to the respective sensor electrodes (12) are obtained from the other of the sensor electrodes and the inspection electrode, and conditions of the sensor electrodes (12) are determined according to the sense signals.
Abstract:
A touch panel substrate that has more uniform light transmittance in the surface thereof is provided. An electrode layer is made of a mesh of first conductive lines. The mesh has first cuts that partition the first conductive lines to form a plurality of first sensor electrodes. The plurality of first sensor electrodes each further include second cuts while maintaining an electrical continuity within each of the plurality of first sensor electrodes.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a touch panel substrate that allows for greater design freedom when designing conductive wire patterns for reducing occurrence of the moiré effect. The touch panel substrate includes: a first electrode layer that includes first conductive wires and second conductive wires; and a second electrode layer that includes third conductive wires and fourth conductive wires. When viewed in a plan view, the first conductive wires and the third conductive wires form first quadrilaterals, and the second conductive wires and the fourth conductive wire form second quadrilaterals. The first quadrilaterals and the second quadrilaterals are not identical to one another.
