Abstract

A touch sensor includes a base layer and an electrode pad portion formed in a bezel area of the base layer. The base layer includes recessed portions, which are spaced apart along the edge and recessed inward, outside the electrode pad portion.

Claims (25)

1. A touch sensor comprising:

a base layer; and

an electrode pad portion formed in a bezel area of the base layer,

wherein the base layer has recessed portions, which are spaced apart along an edge and recessed inward, on an outer side of the electrode pad portion.

2. The touch sensor according to claim 1 , wherein the electrode pad portion includes a dummy pad and the recessed portion is formed outside of the dummy pad.

3. The touch sensor according to claim 2 , wherein the recessed portion has an oval shape.

4. The touch sensor according to claim 2 , wherein the recessed portion has a rectangular shape.

5. The touch sensor according to claim 1 , further comprising a printed circuit board having a bonding pad portion to be bonded to the electrode pad portion via a conductive film and a through hole in a corresponding area of the recessed portion.

6. A laminate comprising:

the touch sensor according to claim 1 ; and

a window laminated on the touch sensor.

7. The laminate according to claim 6 , further comprising a polarizing layer laminated on one surface of the touch sensor or the window.

8. The laminate structure according to claim 7 , further comprising a decorative film laminated on one surface of the touch sensor or the window.

9. The touch sensor according to claim 2 , further comprising a printed circuit board having a bonding pad portion to be bonded to the electrode pad portion via a conductive film and a through hole in a corresponding area of the recessed portion.

10. The touch sensor according to claim 3 , further comprising a printed circuit board having a bonding pad portion to be bonded to the electrode pad portion via a conductive film and a through hole in a corresponding area of the recessed portion.

11. The touch sensor according to claim 4 , further comprising a printed circuit board having a bonding pad portion to be bonded to the electrode pad portion via a conductive film and a through hole in a corresponding area of the recessed portion.

12. A laminate comprising:

the touch sensor according to claim 2 ; and

a window laminated on the touch sensor.

13. A laminate comprising:

the touch sensor according to claim 3 ; and

a window laminated on the touch sensor.

14. A laminate comprising:

the touch sensor according to claim 4 ; and

a window laminated on the touch sensor.
