Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of display, in particular to a touch screen, a manufacturing method thereof and a display device.
Background
At present, the technology of the touch screen is rapidly developed and gradually developed into a common technology in the touch control field and the display field.
In the conventional touch screen, generally, a transparent conductive oxide material, such as Indium Tin Oxide (ITO), is used to fabricate a touch electrode on a cover plate attached to a display panel by using a vacuum sputtering apparatus, however, the cost of both the ITO material and the vacuum sputtering apparatus is high, which results in high fabrication cost of the touch screen.
In order to reduce the manufacturing cost of the touch screen, at present, a nano-scale transparent conductive material with lower cost is adopted, for example: the touch electrode is made of a material, such as a metal nanowire, a carbon nanotube and graphene, which does not need to be formed by vacuum sputtering equipment, instead of an ITO material. The following description will be made by taking an example of fabricating a touch electrode on a cover plate using a silver nanowire material: firstly, preparing a silver nanowire material into a dry film, wherein the preparation process of the dry film comprises the steps of forming a Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) film on a substrate, coating the silver nanowire material on the PET film, and then covering a protective layer to form the dry film comprising the PET film, the silver nanowire film and the protective layer; then, removing the substrate base plate, and attaching the dry film to a cover plate of the touch screen by using an Optical Clear Adhesive (OCA) through a film attaching process; then, removing the protective layer; and finally, carrying out a composition process on the silver nanowire film exposed from the dry film to form a touch electrode.
In the manufacturing process of the touch screen, the dry film can be attached to the cover plate of the touch screen only by using the OCA glue, so that the thickness of the touch screen can be increased, and the light transmittance of the touch screen can be influenced.
Therefore, how to optimize the manufacturing process of the touch screen is a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently by those skilled in the art.
