Claim Text:
1. A touch panel, comprising: a transparent substrate comprising a touch area and a surrounding area surrounding the touch are, wherein the surrounding area has two first strip-shaped areas which are respectively adjacently disposed at two opposite sides of the touch area, and two second strip-shaped areas which are respectively adjacently disposed at the other two opposite sides of the touch area; a touch-sensitive electrode pattern disposed on the touch area of the transparent substrate; a decoration pattern having two having two strips totally separated to each other and respectively adjacently disposed at two opposite sides of the touch-sensitive electrode pattern, and each of the two strips respectively completely covering one of the two first strip-shaped areas of the surrounding area of the transparent substrate for completely shielding the one of the two first strip-shaped areas of the surrounding area of the transparent substrate, so that the two second strip-shaped areas of the surrounding area of the transparent substrate not shielded by the decoration pattern is able to be seen through, wherein the two second strip-shaped areas of the surrounding area of the transparent substrate are respectively adjacently disposed at the other two opposite sides of the touch-sensitive electrode pattern, and the two second strip-shaped areas of the surrounding area of the trans transparent substrate have none of the decoration pattern, completely; and a plurality of electric-control traces located in the surrounding area, each of the electric-control traces being directly formed on one of the two strips of the decoration pattern and one of the two second strip-shaped areas of the surrounding area of the transparent substrate not shielded by the decoration pattern, and electrically connected to the touch-sensitive electrode pattern, wherein each of the two strips of the decoration pattern is sandwiched between the electric-control traces and the transparent substrate, and each of the electric-control traces comprises transparent material, or each of the electric-control traces comprises non-transparent material and has a micron-size width.
