Description
본 발명은 투명 전극 적층체 및 이를 구비한 터치 스크린 패널에 관한 것이며, 보다 상세하게는 사용자에게 시인성이 낮은 투명 전극 적층체 및 이를 구비한 터치 스크린 패널에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a transparent electrode laminate and a touch screen panel having the same, and more particularly, to a transparent electrode laminate having low visibility to a user and a touch screen panel having the same.
통상적으로 터치 스크린 패널은 손으로 접촉(touch)하면 그 위치를 입력 받도록 하는 특수한 입력장치를 장착한 스크린 패널이다. 이러한 터치 스크린 패널은 키보드를 사용하지 않고 스크린에 나타난 문자나 특정 위치에 사람의 손 또는 물체가 닿으면, 그 위치를 파악하여 저장된 소프트웨어에 의해 특정 처리를 할 수 있도록, 화면에서 직접 입력자료를 받을 수 있게 한 것으로 다층으로 적층되어 구성된다.In general, a touch screen panel is a screen panel equipped with a special input device that receives a position when touched by hand. The touch screen panel receives input data directly from the screen so that when a person's hand or an object touches a character or a specific location displayed on the screen without using a keyboard, the touch screen panel can identify the location and perform specific processing by the stored software. It is made possible by being laminated | stacked in multiple layers.
스크린에 표시되는 영상의 시인성을 저하시키지 않으면서 터치된 부분을 인식하기 위해서는 투명 전극의 사용이 필수적이며, 통상적으로 소정의 패턴으로 형성된 투명 전극이 사용된다.In order to recognize the touched portion without degrading the visibility of the image displayed on the screen, the use of the transparent electrode is essential, and typically, a transparent electrode formed in a predetermined pattern is used.
터치 스크린 패널에 사용되는 투명 전극 구조에는 여러가지가 소개되어 있으며, 예를 들면, GFF(Glass-ITO film-ITO film), G1F(Glass-ITO film), G2(Glass only) 구조 등을 들 수 있다.Various transparent electrode structures used in the touch screen panel have been introduced. For example, glass-ITO film-ITO film (GFF), glass-ITO film (G1F), glass-only (G2) structures, etc. may be mentioned. .
GFF는 가장 일반적인 구조로, X, Y축을 구현하는데 필요한 투명 전극(ITO)를 2장의 필름을 이용하여 구성하는 것이며, G1F는 유리 뒷면에 ITO를 박막 증착하고, 제2 ITO는 기존 방식과 마찬가지로 필름을 사용한다. G2는 한 장의 강화유리를 사용하여, 뒷면에 X축용 ITO를 박막 증착하고 패턴화한 후, 그 위에 절연층을 형성하고 다시 Y축용 ITO를 패턴화하여 형성하는 방식이다. GFF->G1F->G2로 갈수록 투과율은 상승하고 소비전력은 감소하게 되어 G2 구조에 대한 연구가 활발하게 이루어지고 있다. GFF is the most common structure, and the transparent electrode (ITO) required to implement the X and Y axes is composed of two films. G1F is a thin film of ITO deposited on the back of the glass, and the second ITO is a film like the conventional method. Use G2 is a method of forming a thin film by depositing and patterning X-axis ITO on the back side using one sheet of tempered glass, then forming an insulating layer thereon and patterning the ITO for Y-axis again. As GFF-> G1F-> G2 increases, transmittance increases and power consumption decreases, and research on G2 structure is being actively conducted.
하지만, 패턴화된 투명 전극을 사용하는 G2 구조의 경우에는, 투명 전극의 패턴부와 비패턴부(패턴 개구부)가 시각적으로 구분이 될 수 있는데, 패턴부과 비패턴부의 반사율 차이가 커질수록 그 차이가 분명해지므로 표시 소자로서의 외관의 시인성이 저하되는 문제가 있다. 특히, 정전 용량 방식의 터치 패널에 있어서는 패턴화된 투명 전극층이 디스플레이 표시부의 전체 면에 형성되어 있으므로 투명 전극층을 패턴화한 경우에도 표시 소자로서 외관이 양호한 것이 요구되고 있다.However, in the case of the G2 structure using the patterned transparent electrode, the pattern portion and the non-pattern portion (pattern opening) of the transparent electrode can be visually distinguished, and as the difference in reflectance between the pattern portion and the non-pattern portion increases, the difference is increased. Since it becomes clear, there exists a problem that the visibility of the external appearance as a display element falls. In particular, in the capacitive touch panel, since the patterned transparent electrode layer is formed on the entire surface of the display display portion, even when the transparent electrode layer is patterned, a good appearance is required as the display element.
이러한 문제점을 개선하기 위해서, 예를 들어, 특허문헌 1의 일본 공개특허공보 제2008-98169호에는 투명 기재와 투명 도전층 사이에 굴절률이 상이한 2 개의 층으로 이루어지는 언더코트층을 형성한 투명 도전성 필름이 제안되어 있다. 또한 그 실시예로서 투명 기재 상에 고굴절률층으로서 굴절률 1.7의 실리콘 주석 산화물층(두께 10nm 이상), 저굴절률층으로서 굴절률 1.43의 산화규소층(두께 30nm) 및 투명 도전층으로서 굴절률 1.95의 ITO 막(두께 15nm)을 이 순서대로 형성한 투명 도전성 필름이 기재되어 있다.In order to improve such a problem, for example, JP-A-2008-98169 of
그러나 특허 문헌 1에 기재된 투명 도전성 필름에서는 패턴부와 패턴 개구부의 차이가 명확하게 드러나는 문제가 존재하여 외관을 개선하기에는 여전히 불충분하다.However, in the transparent conductive film described in

However, the following drawings attached to the present specification are intended to illustrate preferred embodiments of the present invention, and together with the contents of the present invention serves to further understand the technical spirit of the present invention, the present invention described in such drawings It should not be construed as limited to matters.
도 1은 본 발명의 투명 전극 적층체의 일 실시예의 개략적인 평면도이다. 1 is a schematic plan view of one embodiment of a transparent electrode laminate of the present invention.
도 1을 참고하면, 본 발명의 투명 전극 적층체는 제1 투명전극층(100), 제2 투명전극층(200), 절연층(300), 콘택홀(400)을 포함할 수 있다. 아울러 본 발명의 투명 전극 적층체는 투명 기판(미도시) 상에 형성될 수 있으며, 패시베이션층(미도시)이 투명 기판의 반대쪽 면 측에 더 구비될 수 있다. Referring to FIG. 1, the transparent electrode laminate of the present invention may include a first
도 1에 도시된 바와 같이, 투명 전극 적층체는 미리 정해진 패턴으로 형성된다. 제1 투명전극층(100)과 제2 투명전극층(200)은 터치되는 지점의 위치 정보를 제공하며, 절연층(300)은 상기 제1 투명전극층(100)과 제2 투명전극층(200) 사이에 개재되어 두 층을 전기적으로 분리시키며, 콘택홀(400)은 절연층(300)에 형성되어 제1 투명전극층(100)과 제2 투명전극층(200)이 전기적으로 연결될 수 있도록 한다.As shown in FIG. 1, the transparent electrode laminate is formed in a predetermined pattern. The first
이와 같이, 투명 전극 적층체의 각 구성은 소정의 패턴으로 형성되는 바, 이러한 패턴 구조에 의해 투명 전극 적층체는 그 위치에 따라 다른 적층 구조를 구비하게 된다. 투명 전극 적층체의 단위 구조를 나타낸 도 2를 참조하면, 투명 전극 적층체는 위치에 따라 ① 내지 ⑤ 까지의 5 종류의 적층 구조를 가질 수 있다. 도 3에는 상기 ① 내지 ⑤ 위치에서의 적층 구조를 개략적으로 나타나있다. As described above, each structure of the transparent electrode laminate is formed in a predetermined pattern, and according to the pattern structure, the transparent electrode laminate has a different laminate structure depending on its position. Referring to FIG. 2, which shows the unit structure of the transparent electrode laminate, the transparent electrode laminate may have five types of stacked structures from ① to ⑤ depending on the position. 3 schematically shows the lamination structure in the above ① to ⑤ positions.
도 3에 도시된 바와 같이, 투명 전극 적층체는 다양한 층 구조를 가지게 되는데, 이러한 위치에 따른 다양한 층 구조로 인해 위치별로 반사율, 휘도, 색차 등에 차이가 발생하고 그에 따라 패턴에 대한 시인성이 높아져 투명 전극으로서의 기능에 한계가 발생하게 된다.As shown in FIG. 3, the transparent electrode laminate has various layer structures. Due to the various layer structures according to the positions, differences in reflectance, luminance, color difference, etc. occur for each position, and accordingly, visibility of the pattern is increased, thereby making it transparent.

이에 본 발명은 투명 전극층 및 절연층이 특정한 두께 범위를 갖게 함으로써 반사율 차이가 최소화시켜 상기와 같은 문제점을 해결한다. 이하 본 발명을 보다 상세하게 설명하도록 한다.Therefore, the present invention solves the above problems by minimizing the difference in reflectance by having a specific thickness range of the transparent electrode layer and the insulating layer. Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail.
<투명 전극층><Transparent electrode layer>
도 1 내지 도 3에 도시된 바와 같이, 본 발명은 제1 투명전극층과 제2 투명전극층을 구비한다.As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the present invention includes a first transparent electrode layer and a second transparent electrode layer.
제1 투명전극층(100)은 제1 패턴(110)과 제2 패턴(120)으로 형성될 수 있다. 제1 패턴(110)과 제2 패턴(120)은 각각 동일한 행 또는 열 방향으로 배치되어, 터치되는 지점의 X 좌표 및 Y 좌표에 대한 정보를 제공하게 된다. 구체적으로는, 사람의 손 또는 물체가 투명 기판에 접촉되면, 제1 패턴(110), 제2 패턴(120), 제2 투명전극층(200) 및 위치 검출라인을 경유하여 구동회로 측으로 접촉위치에 따른 정전용량의 변화가 전달된다. 그리고, X 및 Y 입력처리회로(미도시) 등에 의해 정전용량의 변화가 전기적 신호로 변환됨에 의해 접촉위치가 파악된다.The first
이와 관련하여, 제1 패턴(110) 및 제2 패턴(120)은 동일층(제1 투명전극층)에 형성되며, 터치되는 지점을 감지하기 위해서는 각각의 패턴들이 전기적으로 연결되어야 한다. 그런데, 제1 패턴(110)은 서로 연결된 형태이지만 제2 패턴(120)은 섬(island) 형태로 서로 분리된 구조로 되어 있으므로 제2 패턴(120)을 전기적으로 연결하기 위해서는 별도의 연결선이 필요하다. In this regard, the
하지만, 상기 연결선은 제1 패턴(110)과 전기적으로 연결되어서는 안되므로, 제1 투명전극층(100)과는 다른 층에 형성되어야 한다. 그에 따라, 제2 투명전극층(200)이 제2 패턴(120)을 전기적으로 연결하기 위해 제1 투명전극층(100)과는 다른 별도의 층에 형성된다. 즉, 제2 투명전극층(200)은 제1 투명전극층(100)과는 다른 층에 형성되되 후술하는 절연층(300)에 형성되는 콘택홀(400)을 통해 제1 투명전극층(100)의 제2 패턴(120)을 전기적으로 연결하는 브릿지 전극이다. However, since the connection line should not be electrically connected to the
따라서, 도 2 및 도 3에서 ①, ③ 및 ④ 위치는 터치된 부분을 감지하기 위해 미리 정해진 패턴으로 제1 투명전극층(100)이 형성된 부분이고, ③, ④ 및 ⑤ 위치는 섬 형태로 형성된 제2 패턴(120)을 전기적으로 연결하기 위해 형성된 제2 투명전극층(200)이 존재하는 부분이다.Accordingly, in FIGS. 2 and 3, the
이 때, 제2 투명전극층(200)은 제1 투명전극층(100) 중 제1 패턴(110)과는 전기적으로 차단되어야 하므로, 이를 위해 절연층(300) 및 콘택홀(400, 도 2의 ③)이 구비되는 바, 이에 대해서는 후술하도록 한다.In this case, since the second
본 발명에 있어서, 제1 투명전극층(100)은 그 두께가 20 내지 200nm이고, 제1 투명전극층이 20nm 이상 내지 120nm 미만의 경우에는 (제1 투명전극층 두께)/(제2 투명전극층 두께) = 0.15 내지 0.375, 바람직하게는 0.17 내지 0.3, 보다 바람직하게는 0.17 내지 0.23이며, 상기 제1 투명전극층이 120nm 이상 내지 200nm 이하인 (제2 투명전극층 두께)/(제1 투명전극층 두께) = 0.60 내지 1.50, 바람직하게는 0.70 내지 1.20, 보다 바람직하게는 0.8 내지 1이다.In the present invention, when the first
두께가 상기 범위를 벗어나면 위치별 반사율 차이가 커져 패턴의 반사시인성이 커지는 문제점이 있을 뿐만 아니라, 두께가 20nm 미만이면 저항이 커져서 터치센서의 민감도가 저하되고, 두께가 150nm 초과이면 투과율이 저하되는 문제점이 있다. If the thickness is out of the above range, the difference in reflectance of each position is increased to increase the reflection visibility of the pattern. In addition, if the thickness is less than 20 nm, the resistance of the touch sensor is increased by decreasing the resistance, and if the thickness is more than 150 nm, the transmittance is lowered. There is a problem.
또한, 제1 투명전극층(100)과 제2 투명전극층(200)은 각각 굴절률이 1.8 내지 2.2인 것이 바람직하다. 상기 굴절률 범위에서 전술한 두께 범위를 갖는 경우의 반사율 저감 효과를 보다 강화할 수 있다.In addition, the first
본 발명에 따른 제1 투명전극층(100) 및 제2 투명전극층(200)은 당분야에 알려진 투명 전극 소재가 제한 없이 적용될 수 있다. 예를 들면, 인듐주석산화물(ITO), 인듐아연산화물(IZO), 아연산화물(ZnO), 인듐아연주석산화물(IZTO), 카드뮴주석산화물(CTO), PEDOT(poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)), 탄소나노튜브(CNT), 금속와이어 등을 들 수 있으며, 이들은 단독 또는 2종 이상 혼합하여 사용할 수 있다. 바람직하게는 인듐주석산화물(ITO)이 사용될 수 있다. 금속와이어에 사용되는 금속은 특별히 한정되지 않으며, 예를 들면 은(Ag), 금, 알루미늄, 구리, 철, 니켈, 티타늄, 텔레늄, 크롬 등을 들 수 있다. 이들은 단독 또는 2종 이상 혼합하여 사용할 수 있다.The first
투명전극층(100, 200)은 물리적 증착법(Physical Vapor Deposition, PVD), 화학적 증착법(Chemical VaporDeposition, CVD)등 다양한 박막 증착 기술에 의하여 형성될 수 있다. 예를 들면, 물리적 증착법의 한 예인 반응성 스퍼터링(reactive sputtering)에 의하여 형성될 수 있다. The
또한, 투명 전극층(100, 200)은 인쇄 공정으로도 형성될 수 있다. 이러한 인쇄 공정 시, 그라비아 오프 셋(gravure off set), 리버스 오프 셋(reverse off set), 스크린 인쇄 및 그라비아(gravure) 인쇄 등 다양한 인쇄 방법이 이용될 수 있다. 특히, 인쇄 공정으로 투명 전극층(100, 200)을 형성할 경우 인쇄 가능한 페이스트 물질로 형성할 수 있다. 일례로, 탄소 나노 튜브(carbon nano tube, CNT), 전도성 폴리머 및 은 나노 와이어 잉크(Ag nano wire ink)로 형성할 수 있다.In addition, the
본 발명에 있어서, 제1 투명전극층(100)과 제2 투명전극층(200)의 적층 순서는 제한되지 않는다. 따라서, 본 발명의 다른 구현예에서는 도 3의 제1 투명전극층(100)과 제2 투명전극층(200)은 적층 순서가 바뀔 수도 있다. 예를 들면, 투명기판 상에 제1 투명전극층 대신 제2 투명전극층이 먼저 형성되고, 그 위에 절연층이 형성된 후, 절연층 상에 제1 투명전극층이 형성될 수도 있다.In the present invention, the stacking order of the first
<절연층 및 콘택홀><Insulation layer and contact hole>
절연층(300)은 제1 투명전극층(100)과 제2 투명전극층(200)의 전기적 연결을 방지하기 위해서 제1 투명전극층(100)과 제2 투명전극층(200) 사이에 형성된다. 다만, 도 2 및 도 3에 도시된 바와 같이, 제2 투명전극층(200)이 인접한 제1 투명전극층(100)의 제2 패턴(120)을 전기적으로 연결하는 경우에는 제1 투명전극층(100)과 전기적으로 연결되어야 하므로, 절연층(300)이 형성되지 않은 부분이 필요하다. 이와 같이, 절연층(300) 영역에서 절연층(300)이 형성되지 않은 부분을 콘택홀(400, 도 2의 ③)에는 절연층(300)이라 한다. 따라서, 콘택홀(400)에서는 제1 투명전극층(제2 패턴)과 제2 투명전극층의 전기적 접속이 이루어진다.The insulating
본 발명에 있어서, 절연층(300)은 두께가 1,000 내지 2,000nm이다. 두께가 상기 범위를 벗어나면 위치별 반사율 차이가 커져 패턴의 반사시인성이 커지는 문제점이 있다. 두께가 1,000nm 미만이면 전극 사이에 생성되는 커패시턴스(Capacitance)가 낮아져서 터치센서의 민감도가 저하되고, 2,000nm 초과이면 더 이상의 두께 증가 효과가 발현되지 못한다.In the present invention, the insulating
절연층(300)은 굴절률이 1.4 내지 1.6인 것이 바람직하다. 상기 굴절률 범위에서 전술한 두께 범위를 갖는 경우의 반사율 저감 효과를 보다 강화할 수 있다.The insulating
본 발명에 따른 절연층(300)은 당분야에 알려진 투명 전극 소재가 제한 없이 적용될 수 있다. 예를 들면 실리콘 산화물과 같은 금속 산화물이나 아크릴계 수지를 포함하는 투명한 감광성 수지 조성물을 사용하여 필요한 패턴으로 형성될 수 있다.The insulating
절연층(300)은 제1 투명전극층(100) 상에 증착이나 인쇄 등의 방법으로 형성될 수 있다.The insulating
본 발명에 있어서, 콘택홀(400)은 절연층을 전체적으로 형성한 후에 홀(hole)을 형성하는 방식으로 형성될 수도 있으며(홀 방식), 절연층을 제1 투명전극층과 제2 투명전극층이 전기적으로 접속되는 부분만 제외하고 형성하는 방식으로 형성될 수도 있다(섬(island) 방식).In the present invention, the

<투명 유전층><Transparent dielectric layer>
투명 유전층은 투명 기판과 제1 투명전극층 사이에 형성되어 터치 스크린 패널의 광학적 균일도를 개선한다. 즉, 투명 전극의 패턴 구조에 따른 위치별 구조적 차이에 의한 광학적 특성의 차이를 감소시키는 기능을 한다.The transparent dielectric layer is formed between the transparent substrate and the first transparent electrode layer to improve the optical uniformity of the touch screen panel. In other words, it serves to reduce the difference in optical characteristics due to the structural difference of each position according to the pattern structure of the transparent electrode.
투명 유전층은 산화 니오븀, 산화 규소, 산화 세륨, 산화 인듐 등을 각각 단독으로 또는 2종 이상 혼합하여 형성할 수 있다. 형성 방법은 진공증착법, 스퍼터링법, 이온 플레이팅 법 등을 사용할 수 있으며, 상기와 같은 방법을 통해 박막 형태로 용이하게 제조될 수 있다.The transparent dielectric layer may be formed by mixing niobium oxide, silicon oxide, cerium oxide, indium oxide, or the like, alone or in combination of two or more thereof. The formation method may be a vacuum deposition method, a sputtering method, an ion plating method, and the like, and may be easily manufactured in the form of a thin film through the above method.
본 발명에 있어서, 필요에 따라, 투명 유전층은 복수의 층으로 형성될 수 있다. 이 경우 각 층은 서로 다른 소재로 형성될 수 있으며, 서로 다른 굴절률 및 두께를 가질 수 있다. In the present invention, if necessary, the transparent dielectric layer may be formed of a plurality of layers. In this case, each layer may be formed of different materials, and may have different refractive indices and thicknesses.
투명 유전층의 굴절률은 투명 전극 적층체의 반사율 저감을 위해 1.4 내지 2.5인 것이 바람직하며, 만약 복수의 층으로 형성되는 경우에는 각 층의 굴절률이 1.8 내지 2.2인 것이 바람직하다. 동일한 측면에서, 투명 유전층의 두께는 50 내지 80nm인 것이 바람직한데, 복수의 층으로 형성되는 경우에는 전체 두께가 상기 두께 범위를 벗어나지 않는 한도 내에서 각 층의 두께를 채택할 수 있다.The refractive index of the transparent dielectric layer is preferably 1.4 to 2.5 for reducing the reflectance of the transparent electrode laminate, and, if formed of a plurality of layers, the refractive index of each layer is preferably 1.8 to 2.2. In the same aspect, the thickness of the transparent dielectric layer is preferably 50 to 80 nm, in the case of forming a plurality of layers, the thickness of each layer may be adopted so long as the total thickness does not deviate from the thickness range.
<패시베이션층>Passivation layer
본 발명의 투명 전극 적층체는 필요에 따라, 투명전극층(100, 200)이 외부환경(수분, 공기 등)에 의해 오염되는 것을 방지하기 위해서, 투명 전극 적층체를 기준으로 투명 기판이 접합된 면의 반대면 측에 패시베이션층을 더 구비할 수도 있다. The transparent electrode laminate of the present invention, if necessary, in order to prevent the
패시베이션층은 상기 절연층(300)에서 사용가능한 재료를 채택하여 형성될 수 있다.The passivation layer may be formed by adopting a material usable in the insulating
본 발명에 따른 패시베이션층은 적절한 두께를 가질 수 있으며, 예를 들면 2,000nm이하일 수 있다. 따라서, 예를 들면 0 내지 2,000nm일 수 있다. 상기 범위에서 본 발명에 따른 투명 전극 적층체의 반사율 저감 효과를 더욱 향상시킬 수 있다.The passivation layer according to the present invention may have a suitable thickness, for example, may be 2,000 nm or less. Thus, for example, it may be 0 to 2,000 nm. Within this range, the effect of reducing the reflectance of the transparent electrode laminate according to the present invention can be further improved.
또한, 패시베이션층은 굴절률이 1.4 내지 1.6인 것이 바람직하다. 상기 굴절률 범위에서 전술한 두께 범위를 갖는 경우의 반사율 저감 효과를 보다 강화할 수 있다.In addition, the passivation layer preferably has a refractive index of 1.4 to 1.6. The reflectance reduction effect in the case of having the above-mentioned thickness range in the refractive index range can be further enhanced.
<접착층><Adhesive layer>
접착층은 본 발명의 투명 전극 적층체를 디스플레이 패널부와 접합시킨다. 접착층은 투명한 경화성 수지 조성물을 도포한 후 경화하여 형성되거나(OCR), 이미 필름 형태로 된 것을 압착하여 형성될 수도 있다(OCA).An adhesive layer bonds the transparent electrode laminated body of this invention with a display panel part. The adhesive layer may be formed by coating and curing the transparent curable resin composition (OCR), or may be formed by compressing an already cured film (OCA).
접착층도 투명 전극 적층체의 반사율에 영향을 미칠 수 있으며, 그에 따라 투명 전극 적층체의 반사율 저감을 위해 적절한 두께 및 굴절률을 갖는 것이 바람직하다. 예를 들면, 두께는 0 내지 250㎛이고 굴절률은 1 내지 1.6일 수 있다. 상기 두께가 0㎛인 경우는 접착층이 투명 전극 적층체의 테두리 부분에만 형성되는 경우에는 실제 영상이 표시되는 안쪽 부분에는 접착층이 형성되지 않으므로 이러한 경우를 의미하는 것이며, 이러한 경우에는 투명 전극 적층체와 디스플레이 패널부 사이에는 공기층만 존재하게 된다.The adhesive layer may also affect the reflectance of the transparent electrode laminate, and therefore, it is desirable to have a suitable thickness and refractive index for reducing the reflectance of the transparent electrode laminate. For example, the thickness may be 0 to 250 μm and the refractive index may be 1 to 1.6. When the thickness is 0 μm, when the adhesive layer is formed only at the edge portion of the transparent electrode laminate, this means that the adhesive layer is not formed at the inner portion where the actual image is displayed. Only the air layer is present between the display panel units.
전술한 바와 같이, 본 발명의 투명 전극 적층체는 투명전극층과 절연층이 특정한 두께 범위를 가짐으로써 위치에 따른 반사율 차이를 최소화할 수 있으며, 그에 따라 투명도를 현저하게 향상시킬 수 있다. 따라서, 본 발명의 투명 전극 적층체는 디스 플레이 패널부와 접합되면 투명도가 우수한 터치 스크린 패널로 제조될 수 있다.As described above, in the transparent electrode laminate of the present invention, the transparent electrode layer and the insulating layer may have a specific thickness range, thereby minimizing the difference in reflectance according to the position, and thus, the transparency may be significantly improved. Therefore, the transparent electrode laminate of the present invention may be manufactured as a touch screen panel having excellent transparency when bonded to the display panel unit.

표 2
상기 표 1 내지 표 2를 참고하면, 실시예들의 경우에는 평균 반사율의 최대값과 최소값의 차이가 2%이하로서 위치별 반사율의 편차가 크지 않아 시인성이 매우 낮다. Referring to Tables 1 to 2, in the embodiments, the difference between the maximum value and the minimum value of the average reflectance is less than or equal to 2%, and the visibility of the reflectance for each location is not large, so the visibility is very low.
하지만, 비교예들의 경우에는 평균 반사율의 최대값과 최소값의 차이가 2%를 초과하여 위치별 반사율의 편차가 커서 시인성이 실시예보다 매우 높은 것을 확인할 수 있었다.However, in the comparative examples, the difference between the maximum value and the minimum value of the average reflectance exceeded 2%, and thus the variation in reflectance for each position was confirmed, and thus the visibility was much higher than that of the embodiment.
그리고, 비교예 중에서도 비교예 7 및 20은 제1 투명전극층과 제2 투명전극층의 두께 비가 본 발명의 범위를 벗어나지만 평균 반사율 차이가 2%이하이나, 상기 비교예들은 제1 투명 전극층 및/또는 제2 투명 전극층의 두께가 10nm이하인 경우이다. 투명 전극층의 두께가 10nm 이하이면 전기 전도성이 저하되어, 전극으로서의 기본적 기능을 충족하지 못하였다.In Comparative Examples 7 and 20, the thickness ratio of the first transparent electrode layer and the second transparent electrode layer is outside the scope of the present invention, but the difference in average reflectance is 2% or less, but the comparative examples may include the first transparent electrode layer and / or This is the case where the thickness of the second transparent electrode layer is 10 nm or less. When the thickness of the transparent electrode layer was 10 nm or less, the electrical conductivity was lowered, and the basic function as the electrode was not satisfied.
이와 관련하여, 50*50*0.7mm 유리 기판에에 120℃에서 ITO를 다양한 두께로 증착한 후, 중앙 1점에서 전기저항을 측정하고, 그 결과를 하기 표 3에 기재하였다.In this regard, after depositing ITO at various temperatures on 120 * 50 * 0.7mm glass substrate at various thicknesses, the electrical resistance was measured at the central point, the results are shown in Table 3 below.
표 3
표 3을 참고하면, 전극 두께가 10nm 이하가 되면 전기 저항이 현저하게 증가되어 터치 전극으로서의 기본적인 성능 발현이 되지 않음을 확인할 수 있다.Referring to Table 3, it can be seen that when the electrode thickness is less than 10nm, the electrical resistance is significantly increased, so that basic performance as a touch electrode is not exhibited.
