[0028] Example one

[0029] As Figure 1 shown, a touch screen with anti-reflection, comprising a glass cover plate layer 1, an optical film layer 2 and a touch sensing layer 3,

[0030] The glass cover plate layer 1 has an upper surface and a lower surface along the thickness direction of itself;

[0031] The optical film layer 2 is arranged on the upper surface of the glass cover plate layer 1;

[0032] The touch sensing layer 3 is arranged on the lower surface of the glass cover plate layer 1;

[0033] The optical film layer 2 comprises a light-transmitting medium film layer 21, and the light-transmitting medium film layer 21 is provided with light-trapping microstructures 211 on a side surface away from the glass cover plate layer 1.

[0034] The touch screen of the utility model is provided with the optical film layer 2 with the light-transmitting medium film layer 21 on the upper surface of the glass cover plate, and the light-trapping microstructures 211 are formed on the upper surface of the light-transmitting medium film layer 21, so that the ambient light is locked by the light-trapping microstructures 211 and cannot be reflected out, thereby reducing the surface reflectivity and improving the transmittance and display quality.

[0035] Specifically, the light-trapping microstructures 211 comprise a plurality of column bodies 21a and a plurality of groove bodies 21b, each column body 21a and each groove body 21b are alternately distributed in sequence, and the width of each column body 21a gradually increases from bottom to top along the thickness direction of the glass cover plate layer 1, so that the width of each groove body 21b gradually decreases from bottom to top along the thickness direction of the glass cover plate layer 1.

[0036] When the ambient light passes through the light-transmitting medium layer, part of the ambient light is incident into the groove body 21b of the light-trapping microstructure 211, and multiple reflections occur at the interface between the groove body 21b and the column body 21a, at this time, due to the smaller upper slot of the groove body 21b and the larger lower slot body, only a small amount of ambient light can be emitted from the upper slot after multiple reflections in the groove body 21b, and a large amount of ambient light is emitted from the lower slot body after multiple reflections in the groove body 21b, thereby reducing the reflectivity and improving the transmittance.

[0037] The light-trapping microstructures 211 can be formed on the surface of the light-transmitting medium film layer 21 by laser ablation, wet etching or texturing process, but are not limited thereto.

[0038] Preferably, the height of each column body 21a and each groove body 21b is between 20-150nm, and the width of each column body 21a and each groove body 21b is between 500-1500nm.

[0045] When the refractive index of the light-transmitting medium film layer 21 is higher than that of the low refractive index film layer 23, the low refractive index film layer 23 is located between the high refractive index film layer 22 and the light-transmitting medium film layer 21, and when the refractive index of the light-transmitting medium film layer 21 is lower than that of the low refractive index film layer 23, the high refractive index film layer 22 is located between the low refractive index film layer 23 and the light-transmitting medium film layer 21.

[0050] The high adhesion film layer 4 can utilize its high viscosity to improve its adhesion to the glass cover plate layer 1 and improve the adhesion of the optical film layer 2 thereon, thereby improving the adhesion between the glass cover plate layer 1 and the optical film layer 2, to reduce the risk of falling off of the optical film layer 2.

[0051] In the present embodiment, the high adhesion film layer 4 is an oxidized tantalum film layer with a thickness of 50-100 nm.
