Abstract
According to an aspect, a detection device includes: a substrate; a detection electrode disposed on a plane parallel to a surface of the substrate and including conductive thin wires and electrical coupling portions disposed where the conductive thin wires intersect with each other or are bent, and are coupled with each other, the conductive thin wires being arranged in a mesh-like form; a coupling wire that couples the conductive thin wires with a detecting unit at an end portion of the detection electrode; and a protective layer that is made of an insulation material and that covers the detection electrode and the coupling wire. An area density of the conductive thin wires per unit area is smaller in an end region ranging from an electrical coupling portion closest to the coupling wire to the coupling wire than in a region of the entire detection electrode.
