Touch screen panel and fabrication method thereof
First Claim
1. A touch screen panel comprising:
- a transparent substrate;
a plurality of first coupling portions arranged on the transparent substrate;
a dielectric layer on the plurality of first coupling portions and having contact holes corresponding to end portions of the plurality of the first coupling portions;
a plurality of first sense cells arranged in a first direction on the dielectric layer;
a plurality of second sense cells arranged in a second direction on the dielectric layer; and
a plurality of second coupling portions electrically coupling two adjacent ones of the second sense cells;
wherein adjacent ones of the first sense cells are electrically coupled to each other through the first coupling portions exposed by the contact holes,wherein the first coupling portions are inclined at an oblique angle with respect to the first direction, andwherein the second coupling portions are inclined at an oblique angle with respect to the second direction.

Abstract
A touch screen panel includes first and second sense cells on a same layer and coupling patterns that couple adjacent ones of the first sense cells and adjacent ones of the second sense cells to each other, respectively. The coupling patterns do not cross with each other, thereby improving the ability of the coupling patterns to withstand static electricity. A dummy line formed of a same material as the sense cells may be formed between the first and second sense cells, and the dummy line is electrically coupled to a guard ring located in an area outside of a display area of the touch screen panel, making it possible to overcome the effects of static electricity applied to the front surface of the touch screen panel as well as the side surface thereof.
