Abstract
A touchscreen display has an outer protective glass layer, a touch-sensitive layer configured to detect touch inputs, a display layer, and an antenna positioned between the outer protective glass layer and the touch-sensitive layer. The antenna may be configured as an NFC antenna and may be a coil-shaped antenna. The NFC antenna may be formed from a conductive material selected from the group consisting of copper, aluminum, and silver. The conductive material may be a wire or metal trace. The NFC antenna may be positioned in an active area of the touchscreen display. An interior glass layer may be positioned between the outer protective glass layer and the touch-sensitive layer, and the NFC antenna may be between the outer protective glass layer and the interior glass layer. The touch-sensitive layer may be a capacitive touch-sensitive layer formed on a glass substrate. The display layer may be an LCD display.
