Abstract

A touch control structure and a manufacturing method thereof, and a display device. The manufacturing method of the touch control structure includes providing a thin film substrate; providing a base substrate, and affixing the thin film substrate on the base substrate; forming a laminate structure on the thin film substrate for implementation of touch control functions; removing the thin film substrate with the laminate structure formed on top thereof from the base substrate.

Claims (35)

forming a laminated structure on the film base, the laminated structure being configured for implementing a touch control function; and

removing the film base on which the laminated structure is formed from the base substrate,

wherein the forming the laminated structure comprises:

performing a patterning process on the first conductive layer to form a plurality of electrode patterns, wherein the plurality of electrode patterns comprises a plurality of first touch electrodes disposed in the touch region, a plurality of second touch electrodes disposed in the touch region, and a plurality of first conductive traces disposed in the non-touch region, and each of the first touch electrodes comprises a plurality of first sub-electrodes; and

forming a plurality of metal traces on the plurality of first conductive traces, the plurality of metal traces being located in the non-touch region,

wherein each of plurality of first conductive traces is between the film base and one of the plurality of metal traces and is in contact with both the film base and the one of the plurality of metal traces.

2. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

after attaching the film base to the base substrate, forming an alignment mark on the first conductive layer, the alignment mark being configured for implementing an alignment function.

6. The method according to claim 5 , wherein the forming the laminated structure further comprises:

forming a second insulating layer on the film base on which the second conductive layer is formed,

wherein the second insulating layer covers an entirety of the touch region.

7. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the first insulating layer further covers each of the plurality of metal traces, except for a portion of each of the plurality of metal traces in a bonding region.

8. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the forming the laminated structure further comprises:

forming a second conductive layer on the film base by using a patterning process,

wherein the second conductive layer comprises a plurality of bridge electrodes disposed in the touch region and a plurality of bonding electrodes disposed in the non-touch region,

each of the bridge electrodes covers two of the vias, two adjacent first sub-electrodes are connected with each other by one of the bridge electrodes, and

the plurality of bonding electrodes cover a portion of each of the plurality of metal traces located in the bonding region.

9. The method according to claim 8 , wherein the forming the laminated structure further comprises:

forming a second insulating layer on the film base on which the second conductive layer is formed,

wherein the second insulating layer covers the film base, except the bonding region.
