Touch screen panel and method for fabricating the same

1. A touch screen panel comprising:

a transparent substrate;

a plurality of first sensing patterns on a first side of the transparent substrate and coupled to each other along a first direction;

a first insulating film on the first sensing patterns; and

a plurality of second sensing patterns on the first insulating film and coupled to each other along a second direction crossing the first direction, the second sensing patterns being alternately arranged with the first sensing patterns to not overlap with the first sensing patterns,

wherein the first and second sensing patterns are composed of a transparent electrode material having a thickness between about 100 and about 300 Å, and

wherein the first insulating film is composed of a transparent insulating material having a thickness between about 400 and about 1000 Å.

2. The touch screen panel as claimed in claim 1 ,

wherein the first sensing patterns having a same X-coordinate are coupled to each other by a column unit and the second sensing patterns having a same Y-coordinate are coupled to each other by a row unit,

the touch screen panel further comprising a plurality of metal patterns on an edge portion of a region where the first and second sensing patterns are formed to electrically couple the first and second sensing patterns by the row unit or by the column unit to position detecting lines.

3. The touch screen panel as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising:

a second insulating film on the second sensing patterns.

4. The touch screen panel as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising:

a transparent ground electrode on a second side of the transparent substrate opposite to the first side of the transparent substrate.

5. A method of fabricating a touch screen panel, the method comprising:

forming a plurality of first sensing patterns to be coupled to each other along a first direction on a first side of a transparent substrate;

forming a first insulating film on the first sensing patterns; and

forming a plurality of second sensing patterns to be coupled to each other along a second direction on the first insulating film, the second sensing patterns being disposed not to overlap with the first sensing patterns, the second direction crossing the first direction,

wherein the first and second sensing patterns are composed of a transparent electrode material having a thickness between about 100 and about 300 Å, and

wherein the first insulating film is composed of a transparent insulating material having a thickness between about 400 and about 1000 Å.
