Abstract: A display device includes a display panel including a plurality of sub-pixels, a touch sensor electrode that is made of a first conductive and opaque material layer that is located directly on the display panel and overlaps a portion of the display panel in between a portion of the plurality of sub-pixels, and a feedline that is made of a second conductive and opaque material layer that is connected to the touch sensor electrode, overlaps a portion of the display panel in between some of the plurality of sub-pixels that is not overlapped by the touch sensor electrode, defines a pair of conductors around a sub-pixel in one or more columns of sub-pixels of the plurality of sub-pixels such that the pair of conductors are electrically connected above and below each sub-pixel in the one or more columns, and routes the touch sensor electrode to a touch sensor controller.
