Method of manufacturing a touch sensitive panel

Abstract

A method of manufacturing a transparent conductive film for a touch sensitive panel, comprising: providing a layered structure comprising a plurality of homogeneous layers which include at least a first transparent conductive layer, a second transparent conductive layer, and a transparent support substrate between the first transparent conductive layer and the second transparent conductive layer, the transparent support substrate being the thickest layer of the layered structure; forming an electrode pattern in the first transparent conductive layer by laser ablation of the first transparent layer by a laser beam incident on the first transparent layer from a side of the transparent support substrate on which the first transparent layer is provided; wherein the laser beam and transparent support substrate are configured such that the laser beam energy density is reduced by 50% or more by the transparent support substrate.
