Description

觸控面板與其製作方法 Touch panel and its making method

本發明係關於一種觸控面板與其製作方法，特別關於一種可具有非黑色邊框的觸控面板與其製作方法。 The present invention relates to a touch panel and a method of fabricating the same, and more particularly to a touch panel that can have a non-black border and a method of fabricating the same.

觸控面板由於可以與顯示面板整合，常見於可攜式裝置上。然而，由於觸控面板的邊框通常需要一層「遮蓋層」來界定可用來觸控輸入的區域，而現有的遮蓋層材料主要是黑色遮光層(black mask)，因此常見的觸控螢幕以及可攜式裝置的邊框也以黑色為主流。當製作具有其他顏色邊框的觸控面板時，往往需要用一般的油墨來塗布於觸控面板的基板上，再於油墨層上設置遮蓋層，由於一般的油墨顆粒較大因此在基板的邊框處會極不平整，在設置觸控電路層時，走線往往會因為油墨的顆粒造成的不平整而被扯斷，最終導致觸控面板的良率下降。因此，如何提供具有其他顏色的邊框的可攜式裝置，一直是一個待克服的問題。 Touch panels are commonly found on portable devices because they can be integrated with display panels. However, since the border of the touch panel usually requires a "cover layer" to define the area that can be used for touch input, and the existing cover layer material is mainly a black mask, the common touch screen and portability are common. The frame of the device is also dominated by black. When a touch panel having other color borders is produced, it is often required to apply a general ink to the substrate of the touch panel, and then a mask layer is disposed on the ink layer. Since the general ink particles are large, the substrate is at the border of the substrate. It will be extremely uneven. When the touch circuit layer is set, the traces are often torn off due to the unevenness caused by the particles of the ink, which eventually leads to a decrease in the yield of the touch panel. Therefore, how to provide a portable device with frames of other colors has been a problem to be overcome.

鑑於以上的問題，本發明提供一種觸控面板與其製作方法。所揭露的觸控面板在鋪設觸控電路層的表面沒有油墨層的顆粒造成的不平整，因此走線斷裂的機率下降，從而提高製作的良率。 In view of the above problems, the present invention provides a touch panel and a method of fabricating the same. The disclosed touch panel has no unevenness caused by particles of the ink layer on the surface of the touch circuit layer, so the probability of the wire breakage is lowered, thereby improving the manufacturing. Yield.

The mask layer can be, for example, a black matrix photoresist layer. According to the above process, the touch panel of FIG. 1 to FIG. 5 is formed, because the ink layer with larger particles is not higher than the upper surface of the substrate of the substrate, when the touch circuit layer is laid, the touch circuit layer is The traces do not break due to unevenness caused by the ink layer. Therefore, the border of the touch panel can be decorated with inks of various colors without reducing the yield of the touch panel, thereby providing a touch panel having frames of different colors.
