Abstract
A touch screen panel apparatus is provided. The touch screen panel apparatus includes a first electrode layer including a plurality of first electrode lines arranged in a first direction to be spaced apart from each other by a predetermined distance; a plurality of first odd-numbered electrode plates coupled to odd-numbered lines of the first electrode lines; and a plurality of first even-numbered electrode plates coupled to even-numbered lines of the first electrode lines. The plurality of first odd-numbered electrode plates and the plurality of first even-numbered electrode plates are alternately arranged in a second direction different from the first direction.

A touch screen panel apparatus comprising a first electrode layer, where the first electrode layer comprises:
- a plurality of first electrode lines arranged in a first direction such that adjacent first electrode lines are separated from each other by a predetermined distance;
- a plurality of first odd-numbered electrode plates coupled to odd-numbered lines of the first electrode lines;
- and
- a plurality of first even-numbered electrode plates coupled to even-numbered lines of the first electrode lines,
- wherein the plurality of first odd-numbered electrode plates and the plurality of first even-numbered electrode plates are alternately arranged in a second direction different from the first direction.
A touch screen panel apparatus comprising:
- a plurality of first electrode layers arranged in a first direction such that adjacent first electrode lines are separated from each other by a first distance;
- and
- a second electrode layer including:
- a plurality of second electrode lines alternately arranged in a second direction different from the first direction, such that adjacent second electrode lines are separated by a second distance,
- a plurality of second electrode plates arranged such that adjacent second electrode plates are separated by a third distance along one side of respective second electrode lines, and
- a plurality of third electrode plates arranged such that adjacent third electrode plates are separated by the third distance, along a side of respective second electrode lines opposite to the side to which the second electrode plates are arranged, the plurality of second electrode plates and the plurality of third electrode plates being alternately arranged in the first direction,
- wherein each of the first electrode layers includes a first electrode plate crossing the second electrode line in a direction perpendicular to the second electrode line and having a width large enough to accommodate at least one second electrode plate and at least one third electrode plate.
