[0068] In an exemplary embodiment, the material of the second magnetron electrode 22 may be copper, the thickness of the second magnetron electrode 22 is h5, and the thickness of the second magnetron electrode 22 ranges from 9000A≤h5≤15000A. The thickness of the second magnetron electrode 22 is the average size of the second magnetron electrode 22 in a direction perpendicular to the substrate.

[0069] The disclosed embodiment shows that the substrate uses metal copper through the second magnetron electrode 22, and the thickness of the second magnetron electrode 22 is greater than or equal to 9000 angstroms and less than or equal to 15000 angstroms, so as to avoid the second magnetron electrode 22 from breaking due to material stress, thereby ensuring the electrical connection of the second magnetron electrode 22; and reducing the resistance of the second magnetron electrode 22, which can meet the requirements of the integrated circuit chip load.

[0070] In an exemplary embodiment, the orthographic projection of the second magnetron electrode 22 on the substrate 101 overlaps at least part of the orthographic projection of the first touch electrode 11 on the substrate 101. The first touch electrode 11 is made of metal aluminum, and the thickness of the first touch electrode 11 is in the range of 6000A≤h1≤7000A; or, the first touch electrode 11 is made of metal copper, and the thickness of the first touch electrode 11 is in the range of 7000A﹤h1≤9000A. The second magnetron electrode 22 is made of metal copper, and the thickness of the second magnetron electrode 22 is in the range of 9000A≤h5≤15000A. The thickness of the second magnetron electrode 22 and the thickness of the first touch electrode 11 satisfy the relationship: h1﹤h5.

[0071] The embodiment of the disclosure shows that the substrate overlaps at least part of the orthographic projection of the first touch electrode 11 on the substrate 101 through the second magnetron electrode 22, and the second magnetron electrode 22 is made of metal copper, and the first touch electrode 11 is made of metal aluminum. Metal aluminum is more likely to break than metal copper. The crystal orientations of metal aluminum and metal copper are opposite, so that the stress direction of metal copper is opposite to that of metal aluminum. When the thickness of the first touch electrode 11 of the lower layer is greater than or equal to 6000 angstroms and less than or equal to 7000 angstroms, the second magnetron electrode 22 of the upper layer can offset the stress generated by the first touch electrode 11 of the lower layer, thereby preventing the first touch electrode 11 from breaking. When the thickness of the first touch electrode 11 is less than 6000 angstroms, the thickness of the first touch electrode 11 is too thin and the resistance is high; when the thickness of the first touch electrode 11 is greater than 7000 angstroms, the thickness of the first touch electrode 11 is too thick, and the second magnetron electrode 22 of the upper layer cannot effectively offset the stress generated by the first touch electrode 11 of the lower layer, resulting in the first touch electrode 11 of the lower layer being more likely to break.

[0072] The disclosed embodiment shows that the substrate overlaps at least part of the orthographic projection of the first touch electrode 11 on the base 101 through the second magnetron electrode 22. When the thickness of the first touch electrode 11 of the lower layer is large (for example, greater than 7000 angstroms) and the first touch electrode 11 of the lower layer is made of metal aluminum, the second magnetron electrode 22 of the upper layer cannot effectively offset the stress generated by the first touch electrode 11 of the lower layer, causing the first touch electrode 11 of the lower layer to be easily broken. Therefore, when the thickness of the first touch electrode 11 of the lower layer is greater than 7000 angstroms and less than or equal to 9000 angstroms, the first touch electrode 11 of the lower layer is made of metal copper. Copper has a low resistance, which can reduce the resistance of the first touch electrode 11 and make the first touch electrode 11 less likely to be broken.

[0073] In an exemplary embodiment, the orthographic projection of the second touch electrode 12 on the substrate 101 overlaps at least part of the orthographic projection of the first magnetron electrode 21 on the substrate 101. The first magnetron electrode 21 is made of metal aluminum, and the thickness of the first magnetron electrode 21 is in the range of 6000A≤h2≤7000A; or, the first magnetron electrode 21 is made of metal copper, and the thickness of the first magnetron electrode 21 is in the range of 7000A﹤h1≤9000A. The second touch electrode 12 is made of metal copper, and the thickness of the second touch electrode 12 is in the range of 9000A≤h4≤15000A. The thickness of the second touch electrode 12 and the thickness of the first magnetron electrode 21 satisfy the relationship: h2﹤h4.

[0074] The embodiment of the disclosure shows that the substrate overlaps the orthographic projection of at least part of the first magnetron electrode 21 on the substrate 101 through the second touch electrode 12, and the second touch electrode 12 is made of metal copper, and the first magnetron electrode 21 is made of metal aluminum. Metal aluminum is easy to break relative to metal copper. The crystal orientations of metal aluminum and metal copper are opposite, so that the stress direction of metal copper is opposite to the stress direction of metal aluminum. When the thickness of the first magnetron electrode 21 of the lower layer is greater than or equal to 6000 angstroms and less than or equal to 7000 angstroms, the second touch electrode 12 of the upper layer can offset the stress generated by the first magnetron electrode 21 of the lower layer, and avoid the first magnetron electrode 21 from breaking. When the thickness of the first magnetron electrode 21 is less than 6000 angstroms, the thickness of the first magnetron electrode 21 is too thin and the resistance is high; when the thickness of the first magnetron electrode 21 is greater than 7000 angstroms, the thickness of the first magnetron electrode 21 is too thick, and the second touch electrode 12 of the upper layer cannot effectively offset the stress generated by the first magnetron electrode 21 of the lower layer, resulting in the first magnetron electrode 21 of the lower layer being easy to break.

[0075] The disclosed embodiment shows that the substrate overlaps at least part of the orthographic projection of the first magnetron electrode 21 on the substrate 101 through the second touch electrode 12. When the thickness of the first magnetron electrode 21 of the lower layer is large (greater than 7000 angstroms) and the first magnetron electrode 21 of the lower layer is made of metal aluminum, the second touch electrode 12 of the upper layer cannot effectively offset the stress generated by the first magnetron electrode 21 of the lower layer, causing the first magnetron electrode 21 of the lower layer to be easily broken. Therefore, when the thickness of the first magnetron electrode 21 of the lower layer is greater than 7000 angstroms and less than or equal to 9000 angstroms, the first magnetron electrode 21 of the lower layer is made of metal copper. Copper has a low resistance, which can reduce the resistance of the first magnetron electrode 21 and make the first magnetron electrode 21 less likely to be broken.

[0076] The feeler gauge measurement method is used to measure the deformation value of copper film and aluminum film under stress. The specific steps include: Stress was applied to a copper film with a thickness of 9000A and an aluminum film with a thickness of 6000A, respectively. The deformation value of the copper film was 1.2mm, and the deformation value of the aluminum film was -1mm. Formula 1: (6000 / (6000+9000))*(-1)+ (9000 / (6000+9000))*(1.2)=0.2mm. According to Formula 1, the deformation value after the copper film and the aluminum film are stacked is 0.2mm. It can be seen that the stacking of metal copper and metal aluminum can offset each other's stress and reduce deformation.

[0077] In an exemplary embodiment, the protective layer 202 may be made of an organic material, such as an optically clear adhesive (OC). The thickness of the protective layer 202 is greater than or equal to 1.5 micrometers and less than or equal to 3 micrometers.
