Embodiment
Fig. 3 is the synoptic diagram of microelectromechanicoptical optical display subass embly of the present invention.The glass substrate 32 of microelectromechanicoptical optical display subass embly 30 is provided with the transparent lead 33 and the covering dielectric layer 34 thereon at heterogeneous mutual interval, support columns 37 and outer support column 36 are arranged between dielectric layer 34 and the reflection horizon 38 in many, make reflection horizon 38 and dielectric layer 34 a both determining deviation apart.
Transparent lead 33 is respectively strip with reflection horizon 38, and quadrature each other, and each transparent lead 34 and reflection horizon 38 staggered zones promptly form the pixel cell 31a and the 31b of rectangle.Outer support column 36 is along being provided with between the two adjacent pixel cells or the periphery of neighborhood pixels unit is provided with, but different with tradition be that each reflection horizon 38 covers an end that links to each other with outer support column 36 fully.In other words, outer support column 36 is arranged at the below in reflection horizon 38 fully, and keeps one first gap d 1 at least with the edge in reflection horizon 38, and with the edge of transparent lead 33 at least at a distance of one second gap d 2.
In the present embodiment; above-mentioned first gap d 1 and second gap d 2 are respectively between 0.3 μ m to 1 μ m; therefore; in the manufacture craft process of assembly; reflection horizon 38 can be used as the protective seam of outer support column 36; avoid outer support column 36 to be subjected to acid, alkali, solvent or etching gas corrodes, cause the impaired or reflection horizon 38 of the physical strength of outer support column 36 to peel off.
Secondly, outer support column 36 also can 38 long axis direction extends along the reflection horizon by the border of each pixel cell, protrude outside the scope of pixel cell, as the outer support column 36a among Fig. 3, or the outer support column of adjacent pixel unit links to each other, form as the outer support column 36b among Fig. 3, so reflection horizon 38 can obtain more firm support.
In addition, then be provided with a plurality of interior support columns 37 in each pixel cell, can make the unsettled reflection horizon 38 of central authorities obtain suitable support.It should be noted, in the embodiments of figure 3, inside and outside support column 37,36 is only arranged expression in the square barrier mode of 4x4, but quantity, position, the shape of inside and outside support column 37,36, can do suitable adjustment with the spacing in reflection horizon 38 and the physical strength in reflection horizon 38 according to size, the dielectric layer 34 of pixel, with the needs of realistic design.
The 4A~4D figure is microelectromechanicoptical optical display subass embly of the present invention manufacture craft synoptic diagram along section c-c in Fig. 3.At first, please cooperate, form a transparent indium tin oxide target or chromium thin film on a glass substrate 32 surface as conductive layer, and etching form the transparent lead 33 with proper width with reference to figure 3 and Fig. 4 A.Then, form the dielectric layer 34 and a sacrifice layer 35 of the transparent lead 33 of a covering in regular turn at above-mentioned transparent lead 33 surperficial sputters, wherein, dielectric layer 34 can be made of SiOx or SiNx, the thickness g of sacrifice layer 35 decides according to the wavelength that will reflect, for example between 1000  to 8000 , and its material can be molybdenum, tantalum, silicon or germanium one of them.Then, utilize gold-tinted and the etching process ad-hoc location in sacrifice layer 35 to form a plurality of plug holes 352, as the usefulness of follow-up formation support column.
Next, shown in Fig. 4 B, be coated on the sacrifice layer 35 after the above-mentioned etching earlier, form the photoresist layer of a set thickness with eurymeric photoresistance, minus photoresistance or other macromolecular material.Then, utilize gold-tinted manufacture craft definition to need the support column zone that keeps, wherein, when the inside and outside support column of definition 37,36, the top of support column 37 and outer support column 36 need keep the partly photoresistance of horizontal expansion in each, to form the top 362,372 of horizontal expansion.
Shown in Fig. 4 C, when the photoresistance that forms inside and outside support column 37,36 and after hardening through high-temperature baking, at sacrifice layer 35 and inside and outside support column 37,36 surface deposition has the metallic reflector 38 of good mechanical properties and high reflectance, as: silver, aluminium, rubidium aluminium, nickel or chromium etc., and with gold-tinted, suitable reflection horizon 38 figures of etching process definition.Wherein, reflection horizon 38 covers inside and outside support column 37,36 fully; and the outer rim at the top 362 of outer support column 36 and the edge in reflection horizon 38 keep one first gap d 1 at least; first gap d 1 can be between 0.3 μ m to 1 μ m; therefore, in the manufacture craft process of assembly, reflection horizon 38 can be used as the protective seam of outer support column 36; avoid outer support column 36 to be subjected to acid, alkali, solvent or etching gas corrodes, cause outer support column 36 impaired.
At last, shown in Fig. 4 D, carry out dry ecthing with XeFe2, remove the sacrifice layer 35 among Fig. 4 C, make reflection horizon 38 with both determining deviation g, suspend and be arranged at the side of inside and outside support column 37,36, can finish the required micro suspension structure of microelectromechanicoptical optical display subass embly of the present invention 30 with respect to dielectric layer 34.
See also Fig. 5 again, show microelectromechanicoptical optical display subass embly of the present invention sectional view along section d-d in Fig. 3.After the manufacture craft of finishing microelectromechanicoptical optical display subass embly of the present invention, outer support column 36 is connected with dielectric layer 34 with first end 364, be connected with reflection horizon 38 with second end 368, reflection horizon 38 is the top 362 that covers second end 368 of outer support column 36 fully, and the edge of the outer rim at top 362 and transparent lead 33 keeps one second gap d, 2, the second gap d 2 between 0.3 μ m to 1 μ m at least.
Though the present invention discloses as above with preferred embodiment; right its is not in order to qualification the present invention, any insider, without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention; still can do a little change and retouching, so protection scope of the present invention is as the criterion when looking claims person of defining.
