Abstract
A touch panel and a touch electrode structure thereof are provided. The touch electrode structure defines position units and includes electrodes electrically insulated from each other. Each of the electrodes covers more than one of the position units and comprises a plurality of sub-electrodes electrically insulated from each other. Each of the sub-electrodes includes sub-electrode units. Each of the position units is corresponding to at least one of the sub-electrode units of at least one of the sub-electrode, and combinations of the sub-electrode units of the different sub-electrodes in the respective position units are different. In the touch electrode structure, each electrode can be electrically independent without needing to dispose a jumper and an insulating layer, thus simplifying process steps and improving a yield rate at the same time.
