20150378507 | DISPLAY DEVICE, TOUCH DETECTION DEVICE AND ELECTRONIC APPARATUS - A display device includes: a display layer; plural first electrodes formed to be arranged above the display layer; a shield electrode formed apart from the plural first electrodes so as to surround the whole plural first electrodes along an arrangement surface; an insulating layer; and a semiconductive layer formed opposite to the first electrodes and the shield electrode so as to sandwich the insulating layer, wherein the difference between an average potential of the first electrodes and an average potential of the shield electrode is equal to or less than 0.5V. | 12-31-2015 |
20160054607 | DISPLAY APPARATUS AND INPUT DEVICE - A display apparatus includes a first substrate, a second substrate facing the first substrate, lead wirings provided on the first substrate or the second substrate and a first insulator part provided on an upper surface of the second substrate. The lead wirings are arranged in a peripheral region when seen in a plan view and the first insulator part is arranged so as to overlap a display region when seen in a plan view. Second insulator parts or spaces with a permittivity lower than a permittivity of the first insulator part are provided at sides of the first insulator part. The second insulator parts or the spaces are arranged so as to overlap the lead wirings in the peripheral region when seen in a plan view. | 02-25-2016 |

20160062512 | METHOD OF MANUFACTURING ELECTRODE SUBSTRATE, ELECTRODE SUBSTRATE, DISPLAY APPARATUS AND INPUT DEVICE - A manufacturing process of an electrode substrate includes a step of forming a protective layer so as to cover a conductor pattern by applying raw material liquid discharged as droplets to an upper surface of a substrate in a first region and a second region of the upper surface of the substrate. At this time, an application amount of the raw material liquid per unit area in the second region is made smaller than an application amount of the raw material liquid per unit area in the first region, so that an average film thickness of the protective layer of a portion formed in the second region is made smaller than an average film thickness of the protective layer of a portion formed in the first region. | 03-03-2016 |
