Patent ID: 7843517

Claim:
A touch panel, comprising: a first substrate, having a central area and a peripheral area; a second substrate, disposed opposite to the first substrate; a sealant, disposed on the peripheral area for bonding the first and the second substrates; a liquid crystal layer, disposed between the first substrate and the second substrate; a main spacer, disposed between the first substrate and the second substrate; a first sensing spacer, disposed on the central area and between the first substrate and the second substrate; a second sensing spacer, disposed on the peripheral area and between the first substrate and the second substrate; a first opposite electrode, disposed corresponding to the first sensing spacer, and a first sensing gap being arranged between the first sensing spacer and the first opposite electrode; and a second opposite electrode, disposed corresponding to the second sensing spacer, a second sensing gap being arranged between the second sensing spacer and the second opposite electrode, and the first sensing gap being larger than the second sensing gap.
