STRUCTURE AND THE ASSOCIATED MANUFACTURING PROCESS FOR A SINGLE-SIDED MULTI-LAYER MUTUAL CAPACITANCE TOUCH PANEL
First Claim
1. A touch function structure for capacitive touch panels comprising:
- a first conducting touch function layer formed on a non-conducting substrate and a second conducting touch function layer formed on top of the first conducting touch function layer, wherein the substrate includes a plurality of insulating gaps within the touch function structure;
a plurality of insulating blocks arranged between the first conducting touch function layer and the second conducting touch function layer, wherein the plurality of insulating gaps form a first direction conducting touch function circuit; and
first auxiliary touch function regions formed on the first conducting touch function layer, formed on a second direction conducting touch function circuit, and formed on second auxiliary touch function regions arranged on the second conducting touch function layer.

Abstract
A structure for a mutual capacitance touch panel consists of two conducting layers formed on the same side of a non-conducting substrate, insulating gaps within the structure, and insulating blocks formed between the two conducting layers for electrical isolation. This structure relies on the insulating gaps to form a touch function circuit in the first direction, a first auxiliary touch function region on the first conducting layer, a second touch function circuit in the second direction, and a second auxiliary touch function region on the second conducting layer. The insulating blocks are arranged at intersecting points of the first and second conducting touch function circuits that electrically isolate the first and the second conducting circuits. This structure is achieved by using a simple manufacturing process with a high yield but low material consumption thereby allowing a novel touch function structure to be implemented.
