Abstract

An optical touch panel comprises a transparent plate, a plurality of light-emitting devices and a plurality of light-receiving devices arranged around the transparent plate, a first substrate to which some of the light-receiving devices are fixed, and a second substrate to which others of the light-receiving devices are fixed. Each of the substrates has a surface layer that has a surface roughness which causes diffuse reflection of the same kind of light as light emitted by the light-emitting devices. A region having the surface roughness on a surface of the surface layer includes a region on the surface of the surface layer included in directivity ranges of the light-receiving devices fixed to the substrate.
