Abstract:
1. A touch screen panel comprising: a transparent substrate; a plurality of first coupling patterns on the transparent substrate aligned in a first direction, wherein an entire bottom surface of the plurality of first coupling patterns directly contacts the transparent substrate; a plurality of second coupling patterns on the transparent substrate aligned in a second direction and being spaced from the first coupling patterns, wherein an entire bottom surface of the plurality of second coupling patterns directly contacts the transparent substrate, wherein the plurality of first coupling patterns and the plurality of second coupling patterns are at a same layer on a same side of the transparent substrate and do not cross each other, and wherein the plurality of first coupling patterns and the plurality of second coupling patterns are implemented with low-resistance material rather than transparent conductive material; a dielectric layer on the first and second coupling patterns and having first and second contact holes respectively corresponding to end portions of the first and second coupling patterns, wherein at least a portion of the plurality of first coupling patterns and at least a portion of the plurality of second coupling patterns are between the transparent substrate and the dielectric layer; a plurality of first sense cells arranged in rows extending in the first direction on the dielectric layer; and a plurality of second sense cells arranged in columns extending in the second direction on the dielectric layer, wherein adjacent ones of the first sense cells are electrically coupled to each other through the first coupling patterns exposed by the first contact holes, and adjacent ones of the second sense cells are electrically coupled to each other through the second coupling patterns exposed by the second contact holes.
