A mutual capacitance touch panel includes a substrate (), a plurality of lower electrodes () provided in a form of wide bands formed of transparent conductive material and arranged parallel with each other and with narrow spacing therebetween along a first direction on a first face of the substrate (), a plurality of upper electrodes () provided in a form of narrow bands formed of transparent conductive material and arranged parallel with each other and with wide spacing therebetween along a second direction intersecting the first direction on the first face of the substrate () and on the lower electrodes, and an insulating film () formed of photosensitive resin having adhesiveness and arranged between the upper electrodes () and the lower electrodes () to support the upper electrodes (). The insulating film () includes a sloped side face () sharing a long side with a support face () which supports the upper electrode ().

Mutual capacitance touch panel

A method of fabricating a touch panel includes the steps of forming the touch panel from a forming material and a film with a conductive electrode formed with a conductive electrode region constituting a touch surface on a substrate film, and deforming the film with the conductive electrode and integrating with the forming material to fabricate the touch panel with a curved touch surface. The conductive electrode region in the film with the conductive electrode includes a discontinuous part for controlling a breakage of the conductive electrode region so that during a deformation of the film with the conductive electrode, a breakage occurs at one portion of a deformed part of the conductive electrode region and the conductive electrode region retains conductivity at two points sandwiching the deformed part therebetween.

A touch sensor including a plurality of first electrode films and a plurality of second electrode films which are formed on a surface of a substrate and are arranged in different directions from each other; and a manufacturing method for the same. The manufacturing method includes: a first transfer step, which uses a transfer ribbon made by at least an insulating layer and an electrode-imparting layer which are entirely sequentially stacked as a transfer layer upon an elongated release film, attaches to a substrate only a portion of the transfer layer to which heat and pressure have been applied, and by stripping the release film, transfers the transfer layer in at least the shape of a first electrode film; and a second transfer step including attaching only the portion of the transfer layer to which the heat and the pressure had been applied and stripping the release film.

A mesh sheet of the present invention is a mesh sheet in which a metal mesh comprising fine bands is laminated on a surface of a base substrate, the mesh sheet being used and adhered along a surface of an arbitrary member having a curved surface portion. The metal mesh has a part in which the fine band positioned between connection points of the fine bands which are adjacent to each other is a curved line so as to absorb stress relative to deformation to be placed along the curved surface portion with a large curvature without destructing the metal mesh.
