Abstract:
1. A touch panel comprising: a first electrode substrate that includes a first substrate and a first conductive layer formed on the first substrate; a second electrode substrate that includes a second substrate and a second conductive layer formed on the second substrate and is stacked with the first electrode substrate such that the first conductive layer and the second conductive layer face each other; and electrodes provided at four edges of the second conductive layer to generate an electric potential distribution in the second conductive layer; wherein the first conductive layer is composed of a first line of conductive areas and a second line of conductive areas adjacent to the first line in a first direction where each of the first and the second lines includes an odd number greater than or equal to three of the conductive areas aligned in a second direction different from the first direction between a first edge and a second edge of the first conductive layer aligned in the second direction, each of the conductive areas not positioned at the first or the second edges of the first electrode substrate is connected with an extracting area that extends toward one of the first and the second edges, and one of the conductive areas positioned in the middle of the first line is connected with the extracting area extending toward the first edge and one of the conductive areas positioned in the middle of the second line is connected with the extracting area extending toward the second edge; wherein the number of extracting areas towards the first edge and the number of extracting areas towards the second edge alternate along the first direction.
