Abstract

A detection device is provided including first substrate including first region, second region and third region arranged in first direction, second region arranged between first and third regions; first detection electrode arranged on first substrate; second detection electrode arranged on first substrate and being adjacent to first detection electrode; first electrode coupled to first detection electrode and continuously formed from first to third regions; second electrode coupled to second detection electrode, and continuously formed from first to third regions, convex portions located between first electrode and second electrode in second region and spaced away from first and second electrodes; and protective layer formed on first and second electrodes in first region and not formed on first electrode and second electrode in third region, wherein at least one of convex portions is covered with protective layer, and at least another one of convex portions is not covered with protective layer.

Claims (45)

1. A detection device comprising:

a first substrate including a first region, a second region and a third region arranged in a first direction, the second region arranged between the first region and the third region;

a first detection electrode arranged on the first substrate;

a second detection electrode arranged on the first substrate

and being adjacent to the first detection electrode;

a first electrode coupled to the first detection electrode and continuously formed from the first region to the third region on the first substrate;

a second electrode coupled to the second detection electrode, and continuously formed from the first region to the third region on the first substrate,

convex portions located between the first electrode and the second electrode in the second region and spaced away from the first electrode and the second electrode; and

a protection layer formed on the first electrode and the second electrode in the first region and not formed on the first electrode and the second electrode in the third region,

wherein at least one of the convex portions is covered with the protective layer, and

at least another one of the convex portions is not covered with the protective layer.

2. The detection device according to claim 1 , wherein the convex portions include a first convex portion and a second convex portion,

the second convex portion is nearer to the third region than the first convex portion is,

the first convex portion is covered with the protective layer,

and

the second convex portion is not covered with the protective layer.

3. The detection device according to claim 1 , wherein some of the convex portions are covered with the protective layer, and

others of the convex portions are not covered with the protective layer and are nearer to the third region than some of the convex portions are.

4. The detection device according to claim 1 , wherein each of the convex portions runs in a second direction crossing to the first direction.

5. The detection device according to claim 4 , wherein each of the convex portions arrange in the first direction.

6. The detection device according to claim 4 , wherein the convex portions include third convex portions and fourth convex portions facing the third convex portions in the first direction,

the third convex portions are arranged in the second direction and are covered with the protective layer, and

the fourth convex portions are arranged in the second direction and are not covered with the protective layer.

7. The detection device according to claim 1 , wherein each of the convex portions runs in the first direction.

8. The detection device according to claim 7 , wherein each of the convex portions arrange in a second direction crossing to the first direction.

9. The detection device according to claim 1 , wherein the convex portions are disposed in a staggered arrangement.

10. The detection device according to claim 1 , wherein the protection layer is located at the first region and a part of the second region continuously.

11. The detection device according to claim 1 , wherein the first and second electrodes are terminals connected with a flexible printed circuit.

12. A detection device comprising:

a first substrate including a first region, a second region and a third region arranged in a first direction, the second region arranged between the first region and the third region;
