Abstract

A touch panel includes a first substrate, a first reflection conversion layer formed on the first substrate, multiple belt-like first conductive layers formed on the first reflection conversion layer, and a first adhesive layer formed on the first conductive layers. The touch panel further includes a second substrate formed on the first adhesive layer, a second reflection conversion layer formed on the second substrate, multiple belt-like second conductive layers formed on the second reflection conversion layer in a direction perpendicular to the first conductive layers, a second adhesive layer formed on the second conductive layers, and a cover sheet disposed on the second adhesive layer. Pigment is dispersed in at least one of the first adhesive layer and the second adhesive layer.

Claims (44)

1. A touch panel comprising:

a first substrate;

a first reflection conversion layer formed on the first substrate;

a plurality of belt-like first conductive layers formed on the first reflection conversion layer;

a first adhesive layer formed on the first conductive layers;

a second substrate disposed on the first adhesive layer

a second reflection conversion layer formed on the second substrate;

a plurality of belt-like second conductive layers which is formed on the second reflection conversion layer and perpendicular to the first conductive layers;

a second adhesive layer formed on the second conductive layers; and

a cover sheet disposed on the second adhesive layer;

wherein pigment is dispersed in at least one of the first adhesive layer and the second adhesive layer.

2. The touch panel of claim 1 ,

wherein a value subtracting a refractive index of the first reflection conversion layer from a refractive index of the first conductive layers is less than 0.3.

3. The touch panel of claim 1 ,

wherein a value subtracting a refractive index of the second reflection conversion layer from a refractive index of the second conductive layers is less than 0.3.

4. The touch panel of claim 1 ,

wherein the pigment is dispersed in the first adhesive layer, the pigment being at least one of quinophthalone pigment, azo pigment, quinone pigment, xanthene pigment, phthalocyanine pigment, triphenylmethane pigment, polymethine pigment, azulenium pigment, squarylium pigment, and metal complex pigment.

5. The touch panel of claim 1 ,

wherein the pigment is dispersed in the second adhesive layer, the pigment being at least one of quinophthalone pigment, azo pigment, quinone pigment, xanthene pigment, phthalocyanine pigment, triphenylmethane pigment, polymethine pigment, azulenium pigment, squarylium pigment, and metal complex pigment.

6. A touch panel comprising:

a first substrate;

a first reflection conversion layer formed on the first substrate;

a plurality of belt-like first conductive layers formed on the first reflection conversion layer;

a first adhesive layer formed on the first conductive layers;

a second substrate disposed on the first adhesive layer;

a second reflection conversion layer formed on the second substrate;

a plurality of belt-like second conductive layers which is formed on the second reflection conversion layer and perpendicular to the first conductive layers;

a second adhesive layer formed on the second conductive layers; and

a third adhesive layer formed on the second adhesive layer at a side opposite to a side confronting the second conductive layers;

wherein pigment is dispersed in at least one of the first adhesive layer, the second adhesive layer, and the third adhesive layer.

7. The touch panel of claim 6 ,

wherein a value subtracting a refractive index of the first reflection conversion layer from a refractive index of the first conductive layers is less than 0.3.

8. The touch panel of claim 6 ,

wherein a value subtracting a refractive index of the second reflection conversion layer from a refractive index of the second conductive layers is less than 0.3.

9. The touch panel of claim 6 ,

10. The touch panel of claim 6 , further comprising:

a light-transmissive sheet disposed between the second adhesive layer and the third adhesive layer.

11. The touch panel of claim 10 , further comprising:

a cover sheet disposed on the third adhesive layer at a side opposite to a side confronting the light-transmissive sheet.

12. The touch panel of claim 6 , further comprising:

a light-transmissive sheet disposed on the third adhesive layer at a side opposite to a side confronting the second adhesive layer.

13. The touch panel of claim 12 , further comprising:

a cover sheet disposed between the second adhesive layer and the third adhesive layer.
