Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An embedded capacitive touch display panel is disclosed. The display panel includes a first transparent substrate, and a grid-shaped metal conductive layer formed on the first transparent substrate. The grid-shaped metal conductive layer includes first metal electrodes extending in a first direction, and second metal electrodes extending in a direction intersecting the first direction. Each of the second metal electrodes is divided into multiple sections by openings, through which the first metal electrodes extend. In addition, the first and second metal electrodes are separated from each other by gaps. The display panel also includes a color filter layer, including a plurality of red, green, and blue color resist units, and a green color resist bar. The gaps include a first gap part, parallel to the green color resist bar, where the first gap part is not overlapped by the green color resist bar.

What is claimed is: 1. An embedded capacitive touch display panel, comprising: a first transparent substrate; a grid-shaped metal conductive layer formed on the first transparent substrate, wherein the grid-shaped metal conductive layer comprises: a plurality of first metal electrodes extending in a first direction, and a plurality of second metal electrodes extending in a direction which intersects the first direction, wherein each of the second metal electrodes is divided into multiple sections by a plurality of openings, through which the first metal electrodes extend, and wherein the first metal electrodes and the second metal electrodes are separated from each other by a plurality of gaps; and a color filter layer, comprising: a plurality of red color resist units, a plurality of green color resist units, a plurality of blue color resist units, and a green color resist bar, comprising a plurality of adjacent green color resist units wherein the gaps comprise a first gap part, parallel to the green color resist bar, and wherein the first gap part is not overlapped by the green color resist bar. 2. The embedded capacitive touch display panel of claim 1 , wherein the color filter layer further comprises a red color resist bar and a blue color resist bar, wherein the green color resist bar, the red color resist bar, and the blue color resist bar are substantially parallel. 3. The embedded capacitive touch display panel of claim 1 , wherein the gaps further comprise a second gap part, wherein the second gap part is substantially perpendicular to the green color resist bar, the red color resist bar, and the blue color resist bar. 4. The embedded capacitive touch display panel of claim 1 , further comprising: a second substrate arranged opposite to the first transparent substrate; and a pixel element array formed on the second substrate, wherein each pixel element of the pixel element array is correspondingly provided with a TFT, wherein a light-shading structure is not provided at one side of each TFT away from the second substrate. 5. The embedded capacitive touch display panel of claim 4 , wherein each pixel element corresponds to one color resist unit, wherein a portion of the color resist units are surrounded by the grid-shaped metal conductive layer, and wherein the TFTs in the pixel elements surrounded by the grid-shaped metal conductive layer are shielded by the grid-shaped metal conductive layer. 6.
