Abstract

A touch display device and a touchscreen panel. Even in the case in which touch electrodes have different sizes or shapes or a located in different positions, a difference in capacitance is not formed among the touch electrodes. High touch sensitivity can be obtained. The touch display device comprises a plurality of touch electrodes, wherein a first touch electrode of the plurality of touch electrodes occupies a first area and comprises first mesh-shaped electrode metal. The touch display device comprises first dummy metal in a same layer as the first mesh-shaped electrode metal and in the first area occupied by the first touch electrode, the first dummy metal being electrically disconnected from the first mesh-shaped electrode metal.

Claims (20)

1. A touch display device comprising:

a substrate including a first portion, a second portion, and a third portion;

a display driving layer disposed on the substrate and including a cathode layer and an encapsulation layer disposed on the cathode layer; and

a plurality of touch sensors including a first touch sensor, a second touch sensor, and a third touch sensor;

wherein the first portion, the second portion, and the third portion are different in size from one another,

wherein the first touch sensor corresponds to the first portion, the second touch sensor corresponds to the second portion, and the third touch sensor corresponds to the third portion,

wherein a first area in which the first touch sensor overlaps at least a portion of the display driving layer, a second area in which the second touch sensor overlaps at least a portion of the display driving layer, and a third area in which the third touch sensor overlaps at least a portion of the display driving layer are different from each other, and

wherein the first portion comprises four corners, in each of which the first touch sensor having a rounded edge is disposed.

2. The touch display device according to claim 1 , wherein the first portion, the second portion, the third portion correspond to a corner area, an edge area, and an inner area, respectively, and the first area is smaller than the second area and the third area.

3. The touch display device according to claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of touch sensors comprises a plurality of mesh-type touch electrodes.

4. The touch display device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the plurality of touch sensors are located on the encapsulation layer.

5. The touch display device according to claim 4 , further comprising color filters located on the encapsulation layer.

6. The touch display device according to claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of touch sensors has a plurality of open areas, and dummy metal is disposed in at least some of the open areas, the dummy metal being disconnected from an electrode metal of the plurality of touch sensors.

7. The touch display device according to claim 6 , wherein the dummy metal is electrically floated when an electrical signal is applied to the plurality of touch sensors.

8. The touch display device according to claim 6 , wherein the plurality of touch sensors and the dummy metal are located on a same layer.

9. The touch display device according to claim 6 , wherein each of the open areas in the plurality of touch sensors corresponds to a light-emitting portion of one or more subpixels.

10. The touch display device according to claim 1 , wherein the first touch sensor comprises an extension portion extending to a peripheral portion of an active area in which an image is displayed.

11. The touch display device according to claim 10 , wherein the first touch sensor has an open area present in the extension portion of the first touch sensor, the open area corresponding to a non-active area.

12. The touch display device according to claim 11 , wherein the extension portion of the first touch sensor overlaps a non-active area.
