Claim:
1. A touch panel including an active area where a touch input is performed, comprising: a tempered glass substrate having a compressive stress layer formed in a surface thereof; a transparent electrode made of an inorganic oxide film formed within the active area of the touch panel over the tempered glass substrate; a base layer made of an organic film provided between the transparent electrode and the compressive stress layer, said base layer being sandwiched between the transparent electrode and the compressive stress layer such that the transparent electrode and the compressive stress layer are not in contact with each other; and an overcoat layer made of an organic film provided on a side of the transparent electrode that is opposite to the compressive stress layer, said overcoat layer covering the transparent electrode so as to contact the transparent electrode on the base layer, wherein an elastic modulus of the overcoat layer is greater than an elastic modulus of the base layer.
