DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

In order to make the technical solutions and the advantages of the present disclosure more apparent, the present disclosure will be described hereinafter in detail in conjunction with the drawings and specific embodiments.


In view of problems of the related technologies, it is provided a method for manufacturing a touch panel in the present disclosure, which includes following steps.


Signal lines and connection bridges are formed on a substrate. The signal lines and the connection bridges are made of a conductive material. The signal lines are connected to touch electrodes manufactured later and are for transmitting signals on the touch electrodes. The touch panel includes multiple first touch electrodes and multiple second touch electrodes intersecting with the multiple first touch electrodes. The connection bridges are located at intersections between the first touch electrodes and the second touch electrodes, such that the first touch electrodes and the second touch electrodes are spaced in a direction perpendicular to the touch panel.


Isolation films are formed on the substrate provided with the signal lines and the connection bridges, where each isolation film covers a portion of one corresponding connection bridge. The first touch electrodes are not in contact with the second touch electrodes due to the isolation films on the connection bridges; thus, the first touch electrodes are insulated from the second touch electrodes.


The multiple first touch electrodes and the multiple second touch electrodes made of nano-silver are formed on the substrate provided with the isolation films. The first touch electrodes and the second touch electrodes are connected to the signal line. Each first touch electrode includes multiple first sub-electrodes, and adjacent first sub-electrodes are bridged through the connection bridges. The second touch electrodes are insulated from the connection bridges through the isolation films.


Compared with using ITO to manufacture the touch electrodes in the related technologies, the demand of the flatness of the substrate is less critical during manufacturing the touch electrodes with nano-silver, which is an organic material, according to embodiments of the present disclosure, it is easy to form a meandering pattern with nano-silver on the substrate, and the method of the present disclosure is especially suitable to product a large touch screen; thus solving the problem that the ITO technology cannot be utilized in manufacturing large products. Furthermore, a nano-silver conductive solution is an organic material, the touch electrodes can be manufactured using a coating process, compared to the film-plating process, equipment investment is smaller and such method in the present disclosure has a great promotion value.


A method for manufacturing a touch panel provided in the present disclosure will be described in detail hereinafter in conjunction with embodiments of the present disclosure.


It is provided a method for manufacturing a touch panel according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, which includes the following steps 11 to 14.


In step 11, as shown in FIG. 1A, a black frame 2 is formed on a substrate 1 through one patterning process. The black frame 2 is a frame surrounding a display region of the touch panel.


In step 12, as shown in FIG. 1B, signal lines 31 and multiple connection bridges 32 are formed on the substrate 1 through one patterning process. The multiple connection bridges 32 are disposed in the form of a matrix.


In order not to affect light transmission of the display region, the signal lines 31 at least partially overlap the black frame 2 in a light-transmitting direction of the display region.


In step 13, as shown in FIG. 1C, multiple isolation films 41 and a signal line protection layer 42 made of an insulating material are further formed on the substrate through one patterning process.


The multiple isolation films 41 is arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the multiple connection bridges 32, and each isolation film 41 covers a middle portion of a corresponding connection bridge 32. The second touch electrodes manufactured later locate on the isolation films 41. It should be noted that, the signal line protection layer 42 is not an essential functional pattern and the arrangement thereof is only optional.


In step 14, as shown in FIG. 1D, multiple first touch electrodes 51 and multiple second touch electrodes 52 made of nano-silver are formed through one patterning process on the substrate provided with the multiple isolation film 41 and the signal line protection layer 42.


Each first touch electrode 51 and each second touch electrode 52 include multiple sub-electrodes (i.e., rhombuses in FIG. 1D). The sub-electrodes of each first touch electrode 51 are separated from each other and electric connection between the sub-electrodes of the first touch electrode 51 is implemented via a column of connection bridges 32. The multiple sub-electrodes of the second touch electrode 52 are integrally formed during a manufacture procedure and connecting portions between the sub-electrodes of the second touch electrode 52 are located on a row of isolation films 41, thereby insulating the second touch electrode 52 from the first touch electrodes 51.


Specifically, a procedure for manufacturing the first touch electrodes 51 and the second touch electrodes 52 includes the following steps 141 to 144.


In step 141, as shown in FIG. 1D1, a layer of nano-silver glue is deposited on the substrate provided with the connection bridges 32 and the isolation films 41 by means of a coating process, and the nano-silver glue is dried and cured to form a nano-silver layer 5.


In step 142, as shown in FIG. 1D2, a first photoresist A is coated on the nano-silver layer, and a first photoresist reserved region x and a first photoresist unreserved region y are formed through performing exposure using a mask plate and development on the first photoresist A. The first photoresist reserved region x is a region covered by the first photoresist A and corresponds to patterns of the first touch electrodes and the second touch electrodes, and the first photoresist unreserved region y is the other region not covered by the first photoresist A.


In step 143, as shown in FIG. 1D3, the nano-silver layer in the first photoresist unreserved region is etched so as to form patterns of the first touch electrode 51 and the second touch electrode 52 made of nano-silver.


In step 144, as shown in FIG. 1D4, the remaining first photoresist A is reserved. In this step, since the patterns of the first touch electrode 51 and the second touch electrode 52 are formed in the last step of the manufacturing method, the first photoresist A covering the first touch electrodes 51 and the second touch electrodes 52 needs not to be removed, and the remaining first photoresist A can further protect the first touch electrodes 51 and the second touch electrodes 52.


As can be seen, the above manufacturing method has four patterning processes respectively for forming the black frame, the connection bridges and the signal lines, the isolation films, and the first touch electrodes and the second touch electrodes.


It is further provided a method for manufacturing a touch panel according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, which includes three pattering processes and includes the following steps 21 to 23.


In step 21, as shown in FIG. 2A, signal lines 31 and connection bridges 32 made of a conductive material are formed on a substrate 1 through one patterning process.


In step 22, as shown in FIG. 2B, a black frame 2 and isolation films 41 are formed through one patterning process on the substrate 1 provided with the signal lines 31 and the connection bridges 32.


In this step, since there is no functional conflict between the black frame 2 and the isolation films 41, the black frame 2 and the isolation films 41 may be made of a same material layer. Specifically, the step 22 includes steps 221 to 224.


In step 221, as shown in FIG. 2B1, an insulating black frame material layer (i.e., a black pattern layer shown in FIG. 2B1) is deposited on the substrate 1 provided with the signal lines 31 and the connection bridges 32.


In step 222, as shown in FIG. 2B2, a second photoresist B is coated on the black frame material layer, and a second photoresist fully-reserved region x and a second photoresist unreserved region y are formed through performing exposure using a mask plate and development on the second photoresist B. The second photoresist fully-reserved region x is a region covered by the second photoresist B and corresponds to patterns of the black frame and the isolation films, and the second photoresist unreserved region y is the other region not covered by the second photoresist B.


In step 223, as shown in FIG. 2B3, the black frame material layer in the second photoresist unreserved region y is etched so as to form patterns of the black frame 2 and the isolation films 41 made of a black frame material. The black frame 2 covers a portion of each signal line 31.


In step 224, as shown in FIG. 2B4, the remaining second photoresist B is removed.


Step 23 is performed after the black frame 2 and the isolation films 41 are manufactured. As shown in FIG. 2C, multiple first touch electrodes 51 and multiple second touch electrodes 52 made of nano-silver are further formed on the substrate 1 through one patterning process. This step is same as the step for forming the touch electrodes in the manufacturing method according to the foregoing embodiments, which will not be repeated here.


In the manufacturing method, the black frame and the isolation films are formed in one patterning process; thus, manufacturing cost of the touch panel is reduced effectively.


It is further provided a method for manufacturing a touch panel according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, which has three patterning processes and includes the following steps 31 to 33.


In step 31, as shown in FIG. 3A, signal lines 31 and connection bridges 32 made of a conductive material are formed on a substrate 1 through one patterning process.


In step 32, as shown in FIG. 3B, a black frame 2 and isolation films 41 are formed on the substrate 1 through one patterning process.


In this step, the black frame 2 and the isolation films 41 are made of different materials. Specifically, the step 32 may include the following steps 321 to 326.


In step 321, as shown in FIG. 3B1, a transparent insulating material layer (i.e., a grid-like pattern layer shown in FIG. 3B1) and a black frame material layer (i.e., a black pattern layer shown in FIG. 3B1) are deposited in sequence on the substrate 1 provided with the signal lines 31 and the connection bridges 32.


In step 322, as shown in FIG. 3B2, a third photoresist C is coated on the black frame material layer, and a third photoresist fully-reserved region x, a third photoresist partially-reserved region z and a third photoresist unreserved region y are formed through performing exposure using a halftone mask plate and development on the third photoresist C. The third photoresist fully-reserved region x corresponds to a region where a pattern of the black frame is located, the third photoresist partially-reserved region z corresponds to a region where patterns of the isolation films are located, and the third photoresist unreserved region y corresponds to the other region.


In step 323, as shown in FIG. 3B3, the black frame material layer and the transparent insulating material layer in the third photoresist unreserved region y are etched.


In step 324, as shown in FIG. 3B4, the third photoresist C in the third photoresist partially-reserved region z is ashed and the thickness of the third photoresist C in the third photoresist partially-reserved region z is reduced to approximate half of an original thickness thereof.


In step 325, as shown in FIG. 3B5, the black frame material layer in the third photoresist partially-reserved region z is etched to form patterns of the isolation films 41 which are only generated from the transparent insulating material layer.


In step 326, the remaining third photoresist C is removed.


Step 23 is performed after the black frame 2 and the isolation films 41 are formed. As shown in FIG. 3C, multiple first touch electrodes 51 and multiple second touch electrodes 52 made of nano-silver are further formed on the substrate 1 through one patterning process. This step is same as the step for forming the touch electrodes in the manufacturing method according to foregoing embodiments, which will not be repeated here.


In the above manufacturing method, the black frame and the isolation films are formed in one patterning process and the isolation films formed in the display region are transparent; therefore, light transmission of a display device including the touch panel is assured.


In summary, in the manufacturing methods provided in the present disclosure, the touch electrodes are made of nano-silver; compared with manufacturing the touch electrodes using ITO, the demand of the flatness of the substrate in the manufacturing methods of the present disclosure is less critical; therefore, the manufacturing methods of the present disclosure are especially suitable to product a large touch screen.
