Embodiment
Below, accompanying drawings the present invention.
Fig. 1 is a mode chart of conceptually representing the formation method of film figure of the present invention.
The formation method of film figure of the present invention comprises: the operation that forms the first storage lattice cofferdam B1 on substrate P; The operation of the configuration first functional liquid L1 in the zone of being divided by the first storage lattice cofferdam B1; Dry (burning till) first functional liquid L1 also forms the operation of the first film figure F1; On the first storage lattice cofferdam B1, form the operation of the second storage lattice cofferdam B2; The operation of the configuration second functional liquid L2 in the zone of being divided by the second storage lattice cofferdam B2; Dry (burning till) second functional liquid L2 also forms the operation of the second film figure F2.
In the formation method of film figure of the present invention, by configuration feature liquid in the zone of being divided by storage lattice cofferdam B1 or B2, and dry this functional liquid, on substrate P, form film figure F1 and F2.In such cases, the shape of coming the regulation film figure with storage lattice cofferdam, thus for example, by the narrowed width between the storage lattice cofferdam that makes adjacency etc., appropriate storage lattice cofferdam B1, the B2 of forming, miniaturization or the graph thinning that can seek film figure F1, F2.
As the formation method in storage lattice cofferdam, can utilize any means of photoetching process or print process etc.For example, utilize under photolithographic situation, with rotation apply, spray apply, roller coat covers, the prescriptive procedure of mouthful pattern coating, immersion coating etc., forming storage lattice cofferdam on substrate P forms after the formed layer of material, wait by etching method or polishing (ashing) and to carry out pattern and form, can obtain the storage lattice cofferdam of predetermined pattern shape.In addition, also can on other objects that are not substrate P, form after the storage lattice cofferdam, it is configured on the substrate P.
The surface of wishing storage lattice cofferdam B1, B2 has lyophobicity.Thus, can prevent that functional liquid is attached to storage lattice cofferdam upper surface, correctly form film figure with wanted shape, but, if so make surface, storage lattice cofferdam lyophobyization, when then wanting to form the second film figure F2 on storage lattice cofferdam B1, the storage lattice cofferdam B1 of this lyophobyization becomes on the position of substrate, and the wettability between the second functional liquid L2 is hindered, and can not form the second good film figure F2.Therefore, in the present invention, store between the operation of lattice cofferdam B2, be provided with the operation that makes first surface of storing lattice cofferdam B1 carry out the lyophily processing in operation and the formation second of the configuration first functional liquid L1.Handle as lyophily and can select in ultraviolet treatment with irradiation, the air atmosphere oxygen for handling the O of gas
2Cement Composite Treated by Plasma (that is, in comprising the atmosphere of oxygen) or the processing of making up these to the processing of the first storage lattice cofferdam B1 irradiation plasma.
The method of lyophobicity is paid in storage lattice cofferdam, handle the method on storage surface, lattice cofferdam (lyophoby processings), or store the method for lattice cofferdam from body with lyophobicity material (material of the lyophoby composition that filling is fluorine-based etc.) formation with plasmas such as fluoro-gas.But, storage lattice cofferdam B2 as for upper strata one side, if after forming storage lattice cofferdam (promptly, storage lattice cofferdam material is become after the pattern of storage lattice cofferdam shape) carry out Cement Composite Treated by Plasma, the front surface lyophobyization once more of the storage lattice cofferdam B1 of lower floor's one side of handling of lyophily then, so during ejection configuration feature liquid L2, might can not guarantee sufficient wettability.Therefore, as for the storage lattice cofferdam B2 of upper strata one side, the material of handy lyophobicity forms storage lattice cofferdam material from body.Or, also can form after the film that storage lattice cofferdam material constituted, carry out before pattern forms, the surface of this film is carried out carrying out pattern and forming after lyophoby handles.In such cases, lyophoby was handled before pattern forms and is carried out, so the surface of the storage lattice cofferdam B1 of lower floor's one side can keep lyophily.And the lyophoby processing is not carried out in the side of storage lattice cofferdam B2 yet, so the wettability between storage side, lattice cofferdam and the functional liquid L2 also becomes well.
As functional liquid of the present invention (printing ink) L1, L2, can utilize all functional liquids.Called function liquid is meant: carry out membranization by making the film component that comprises in the liquid, can form the functional liquid of the film (functional membrane) with predetermined function.Have as relevant function: electronics sexual function (electric conductivity, insulativity, piezoelectricity, pyroelectricity, dielectricity etc.), (selection of light absorbs optical property, reflectivity, polarity, the selection permeability of light, non-linear optical, fluorescence or phosphorescence etc. luminous, photochromism etc.), magnetic function (hard magnetic, soft magnetism, non magnetic, magnetic permeability etc.), chemical functional (adsorbability, separate absorption, catalytic, water absorptivity, ionic conductivity, oxidation-reduction quality, electrochemical properties, electrochromism etc.), mechanical function (mar proof etc.), hot merit energy (heat transmissibility, thermal insulation, infrared radiation etc.), living body functional (biosome suitability, antithrombotic etc.) etc. all functions.For example,, present the printing ink of electric conductivity, can form film figure with electric conductivity by utilizing thermal treatment or optical processing as above-mentioned functional liquid L1, L2.The film figure of this electric conductivity can be useful in the various devices as distribution.
As the method for configuration feature liquid in the zone of being divided by storage lattice cofferdam, preferably utilize the so-called ink-jet method of drop ejection method.By utilizing drop ejection method, than other paint-on techniques of rotation cladding process etc., it is few that the waste of fluent material consumes, and has: can carry out the amount of the functional liquid that disposes on the substrate or the advantage of position control easily.
In addition, in Fig. 1, form 2 layers film figure F1, the formation of F2 in order, but under situation about forming more than 3 layers, also can profit use the same method.That is, form before the film figure of upper strata one side, in advance lyophily is carried out on the surface, storage lattice cofferdam of substrate and handle, improve the mode of the wettability between storage lattice cofferdam and the functional liquid, can form good film figure.
Below, as the embodiment of the manufacture method of device of the present invention, the example that the formation method of film figure of the present invention is useful in the manufacture method of active-matrix substrate describes.

The manufacture method of<active-matrix substrate 〉
Below, 20 manufacture method of active-matrix substrate is described.
20 of active-matrix substrate is made by first operation that forms grid pattern on the substrate P, the 3rd operation that forms second operation of laminated section 35 and form pixel electrode 45.
Describe each operation below in detail.
(first operation: distribution forms)
Fig. 4, Fig. 5 form the figure of operation as first operation, explanation distribution.In addition, Fig. 4 (b), Fig. 5 (b) are respectively the sectional views along A-A ' line among Fig. 4 (a), the figure (a).
As the substrate P of the grid pattern distribution that forms grid distribution 40 or source distribution 42 etc., can utilize various materials such as glass, quartz glass, Si wafer, plastic sheeting, sheet metal.In addition, also comprise:, formed the substrate of semiconductor film, metal film, dielectric film, organic membrane etc. as basalis on the surface of these various material substrates.
At first, as shown in Figure 4, on substrate P, form the storage lattice cofferdam 51 of insulativity material.Storage lattice cofferdam is the assigned position that is configured in substrate P for the distribution that the back will be narrated with printing ink.
Particularly, shown in Fig. 4 (a), according to photoetching process, in the upper surface formation storage lattice cofferdam 51 of the substrate P of having cleaned, this storage lattice cofferdam 51 has a plurality of peristomes 52,53,54,55 corresponding to the formation position of the distribution of grid pattern.
As the material in storage lattice cofferdam 51, for example can utilize the macromolecular material of acrylic resin, polyimide resin, olefin resin, melmac etc.In addition, consider thermotolerance, can comprise the material of inanimate matter.Storage lattice cofferdam material as inanimate matter can be enumerated: for example, comprise in the bone of polysilazane, polysiloxane, type siloxane resist, polysilanes resist etc. the silicon element macromolecule inorganic material or photosensitive inorganic material, comprise any spin glass film, diamond film and the fluorinated amorphous matter carbon film etc. in quartz glass, alkyl siloxane polymer, alkyl silsesquioxane polymer, hydrogenation alkyl silsesquioxane polymer, the polyaryl ether.And then ground, as the storage lattice cofferdam material of inorganics, for example, can utilize the molten gel of gas, porous matter silicon etc.As comprise the photonasty polysilazane composition of polysilazane and light acid producing agent, under situation, do not need Etching mask, so be suitable with photosensitive material.In addition, in order in peristome 52,53,54, to dispose Wiring pattern printing ink well, lyophoby is implemented in storage lattice cofferdam 51 handled.Handle as lyophoby, implement CF
4Cement Composite Treated by Plasma etc. (utilizing it to comprise the Cement Composite Treated by Plasma of the plain composition of fluorine).In addition, also can to storage lattice cofferdam 51 starting material from body in advance filling lyophoby composition (fluorine-based etc.) substitute and implement CF
4Cement Composite Treated by Plasma etc.
By storage lattice cofferdam 51 formed peristomes 52,53,54,55, corresponding to the distribution of the grid pattern of grid distribution 40 or source distribution 42 etc.That is,, form the distribution of the grid pattern of grid distribution 40 or source distribution 42 etc. by configuration distribution printing ink on the peristome 52,53,54,55 in storage lattice cofferdam 51.
Particularly, the peristome 52,53 that forms in the mode of extending to directions X is corresponding to the formation position of grid distribution 40, electric capacity line 46.And,, connected the peristome 54 that forms positions corresponding to gate electrode 41 at peristome 52 corresponding to the formation position of grid distribution 40.In addition, extending morphogenetic peristome 55 to the Y direction is formation positions corresponding to source distribution 42.In addition, the peristome 55 that extends to the Y direction forms disjunction in cross part 56, so that the peristome 52,53 that extends with directions X does not intersect.
Then, the droplet ejection apparatus IJ that will narrate with the back sprays the distribution printing ink that configuration comprises conductive particle in peristome 52,53,54,55, forms the grid pattern distribution that grid distribution 40 and source distribution 42 are constituted on substrate.
Distribution printing ink is by conductive particle being dispersed in dispersion liquid in the dispersion medium or organic silver compound or the silver oxide nano particle being dispersed in the printing ink that solution constituted in the solvent (dispersion medium).As conductive particle, for example, except the metal microparticle of gold, silver, copper, tin, lead etc., can also utilize these the oxide and the particulate of electric conductive polymer or superconductor.In order to improve dispersiveness, can be at the surface-coated organism of these conductive particles and use.
The particle diameter of preferred conductive particle is below the above 0.1 μ m of 1nm.If greater than 0.1 μ m, then produce the danger of stopping up in the nozzle of the droplet jetting head that might will narrate in the back.In addition, if less than 1nm, then the volume ratio of the coating agent of conductive particle is become big and organic ratio in the film that obtained becomes excessive.
As dispersion medium, if can disperse above-mentioned conductive particle, do not cause that cohesion does not just have specific restriction.For example, except water, can also use the alcohols of methyl alcohol, ethanol, propyl alcohol, butanols etc.; The hydrocarbon compound of normal heptane, normal octane, decane, dodecane, the tetradecane, toluene, dimethylbenzene, isopropyl toluene, durene, indenes, bipentene, tetralin, decahydronaphthalenes, cyclohexyl benzene etc.; Or the ether compound of ethylene glycol dimethyl ether, ethylene glycol bisthioglycolate ethylether, Ethylene Glycol Methyl ethylether, diethylene glycol dimethyl ether, diethyl carbitol, diglycol methyl ethyl ether, 1,2 dimethoxy-ethanes, two (2-methoxyl) ether, Dui diox etc.; The polar compound that also has carbonic allyl ester, gamma-butyrolacton, N-N-methyl-2-2-pyrrolidone N-, dimethyl formamide, the mute sulfone of diformazan, ring ethyl ketone etc.In these, consider from the stability of atomic dispersiveness, dispersion liquid and the viewpoint that is useful in drop ejection method (ink-jet method) easily, preferred water, alcohol type, hydrocarbon compound, ether compound, better dispersion medium can be enumerated water, hydrocarbon compound.
The surface tension of the dispersion liquid of conductive particle for example is preferably, the scope that the above 0.07N/m of 0.02N/m is following.During with ink-jet method ejection liquid, if surface tension is less than 0.02N/m, then ink composite increases the wettability of nozzle face and that flight takes place easily is crooked, if surpass 0.07N/m, and the meniscus shape instability of spray nozzle front end and spray volume or the control of ejection time become difficulty then.For the adjustment form surface tension, it is just passable in the scope that does not reduce with the contact angle of substrate above-mentioned dispersion liquid to be added the surface tension modifier of fluorine system, silicon system, nonionic system etc.Nonionic is that surface tension modifier can improve the wettability of liquid to substrate, improves the leveling of film, and the generation of the fine convex-concave that prevents film is worked.As required, above-mentioned surface tension modifier can comprise the organic compound of ethanol, ether, ester, ketone etc.
The viscosity of dispersion liquid is preferably for example below the above 50mPas of 1mPas.During with ink-jet method ejection liquid, under the situation of viscosity less than 1mPas, because the outflow of printing ink, the nozzle periphery pollutes easily, if under the situation of viscosity greater than 50mPas, the obstruction frequency of nozzle bore uprises and drop ejection smoothly becomes difficulty.
After substrate P ejection distribution is with printing ink,, carries out dried as required, burn till processing in order to remove dispersion medium.
Dried is to utilize the heat treated of common hot plate as heated substrates P, electric furnace etc. to carry out.For example, 180 ℃ heating was carried out about 60 minutes.
Consider boiling point (vapor pressure), atomic dispersiveness or the oxidisability etc. of dispersion medium thermal behavior, apply agent have or not or the heat resisting temperature of amount, matrix material etc. and suitably decision burn till the treatment temperature of processing.For example, in order to remove the coating agent that constitutes by organism, be necessary in 250 ℃, to burn till.
Burn till processing by such drying, guarantee electrically contacting between the conductive particle, change conductive film into.
In addition, on the distribution of grid distribution 40 or source distribution 42 etc., also can form metal protective film 47.Metal protective film 47 is the films for () transport phenomena of the conductive film that suppresses to be made of silver or copper etc.Be preferably nickel as the material that forms metal protective film 47.In addition, be configured in substrate P and form the metal protective film 47 that constitutes by nickel with drop ejection method.In addition, also can wait and form nickel with no electrolysis spraying plating.
By above operation, as shown in Figure 5, on substrate P, form the layer that constitutes by the distribution of storing lattice cofferdam 51 and grid pattern.
But,, can enumerate: charged control mode, pressurization and vibration mode, electromechanical conversion regime, electric heating conversion regime, electrostatic attraction mode etc. as the ejection technology of drop ejection method.Charged control mode is with charged electrode material to be paid electric charge, with the direction and from the mode of nozzle ejection of circling in the air of deviating electrode control material.In addition, the pressurization and vibration mode be to material apply 30kg/cm for example UHV (ultra-high voltage) and to the mode of the front end one side ejection material of nozzle, do not adding under the control voltage condition, material carries out straight ahead and is ejected from nozzle, if apply control voltage then between material, produce Coulomb repulsion and material disperses, can not spray from nozzle.In addition, the electromechanical conversion regime is to have utilized piezoelectric element to be subjected to the electric signal of pulse feature and the character of being out of shape, because piezoelectric element be out of shape, by the flexible material pressure is given in the space of having stored material, the mode that sprays from this space extrusion material and from nozzle.
In addition, the electric heating conversion regime is by being located at the well heater in the space of having stored material, makes sharply vaporization and produce bubble (bubble) of material, utilizes the pressure of bubble to spray the mode of the material in the space.The electrostatic attraction mode is the meniscus that forms material to applying slight pressure in the space of having stored material at nozzle, applies electrostatic attraction and draws the mode of material with this state.In addition, other mode can also be suitable for, and utilizes mode that the fluid viscosity of electric field changes or the mode that material is flown out with discharge spark.Drop ejection method has: the advantage of materials used less wastage and the material that accurate configuration will be measured on want position.In addition, utilize one the amount of (liquid) of the drop ejection liquid material that method sprayed to be for example 1~300 nanogram.
