Patent ID: 8258914

Claim:
A touch panel, comprising: a first transparent electrode substrate including a first wiring pattern, a first surface, a second surface, and a first path, the first wiring pattern being formed on the first surface, the second surface being opposite to the first surface, the first path causing the first surface and the second surface to communicate with each other; a second transparent electrode substrate including a second wiring pattern, a third surface, a fourth surface, and a second path, the second wiring pattern being formed on the third surface, the fourth surface being opposite to the third surface, the second path causing the third surface and the fourth surface to communicate with each other; a first bonding layer including a first peripheral area, an opening area, and a third path, the first bonding layer bonding the first transparent electrode substrate and the second transparent electrode substrate to each other in the first peripheral area, the first peripheral area being provided between the first surface and the third surface to cover the first wiring pattern and the second wiring pattern, the opening area causing the first surface and the third surface to be separated from and opposed to each other, the third path being formed in the first peripheral area and causing the first path and the second path to communicate with each other; a first transparent substrate that is opposed to the second surface; and a second bonding layer including a first opening portion that is opposed to a formation area of the first wiring pattern and communicated with the first path, the second bonding layer bonding the second surface and the first transparent substrate to each other.
