The first dummy leads pattern D11 is positioned at the first exposure region A11 of photomask 110, and is adjacent to the first perimeter circuit pattern L11.The second dummy leads pattern D12 is positioned at the 3rd exposure region A13 of photomask 110, and is adjacent to the second perimeter circuit pattern L12.The first dummy leads pattern D11 and the second dummy leads pattern D12 are respectively the extension of the first perimeter circuit pattern L11 and the second perimeter circuit pattern L12.That is to say that the first dummy leads pattern D11 and the second dummy leads pattern D12 also comprise the pattern of grid circuit G and the pattern of common electrode circuit CS.
First overlaps pattern of pixels P11 is positioned at the first exposure region A11 of photomask 110, and is adjacent to the first dummy leads pattern D11.Quadruple is closed the 3rd exposure region A13 that pattern of pixels P14 is positioned at photomask 110, and is adjacent to the second dummy leads pattern D12.That is to say that the first perimeter circuit pattern L11, the first dummy leads pattern D11 and first overlap pattern of pixels P11 and be positioned at the first exposure region A11, and adjacency in regular turn.The second perimeter circuit pattern L12, the second dummy leads pattern D12 and quadruple are closed pattern of pixels P14 and all are positioned at the 3rd exposure region A13, and adjacency in regular turn.
Second overlaps pattern of pixels P12 and the 5th overlaps the lateral edges place that pattern of pixels P15 is positioned at the second exposure region A12 of photomask 110, and the 5th coincidence pattern of pixels P15 is positioned at the outside.The 3rd overlaps pattern of pixels P13 and sixfold closes the opposite side edge that pattern of pixels P16 is positioned at the second exposure region A12 of photomask 110, and sixfold closes pattern of pixels P16 and is positioned at the outside.10 of center pixel pattern P are positioned at the centre of the second exposure region A12 of photomask 110.That is to say that the 5th overlaps pattern of pixels P15, second overlaps pattern of pixels P12, center pixel pattern P 10, the triple and pattern of pixels P13 and sixfold and close pattern of pixels P16 and all be positioned at the second exposure region A12, and adjacency in regular turn.
First closes the pattern of pattern of pixels P11~P16 corresponding to the pixel of thin film transistor base plate 130 to sixfold.Wherein, close among pattern of pixels P11~P16 to sixfold first, hatched example areas configuration pattern of pixels is only arranged, white space does not then dispose pattern of pixels, just like as mosaic (mosaic) totem.
For instance, the first coincidence pattern of pixels P11 overlaps pattern of pixels P12 complementation with second.That is to say that first hatched example areas that overlaps pattern of pixels P11 is just corresponding to second white space that overlaps pattern of pixels P12; First white space that overlaps pattern of pixels P11 is just corresponding to second hatched example areas that overlaps pattern of pixels P12.After the first coincidence pattern of pixels P11 overlaps pattern of pixels P12 double exposure with second, hatched example areas and white space coincide mutually, and making wins overlaps pattern of pixels P11 and be bonded with each other into complete pattern of pixels with the pattern that the second coincidence pattern of pixels P12 is exposed.

Below more describe how photomask 110 is carried out repeated exposure to form thin film transistor base plate 130 in detail with process flow diagram.Please refer to Fig. 3 A~Fig. 3 B and Fig. 4 A~Fig. 4 H, Fig. 3 A~Fig. 3 B illustrate thin film transistor base plate first embodiment of the present invention the manufacture method process flow diagram, Fig. 4 A~Fig. 4 H illustrates each step synoptic diagram of Fig. 3.
Please refer to Fig. 4 A, in step SO2, provide a substrate 131.Substrate 131 for example is a glass substrate.
Then, referring again to Fig. 4 A, in step SO4, provide photomask 110.
Then, please refer to Fig. 4 B, in step SO6, form a photoresist layer 132 on substrate 131.
Then, please refer to Fig. 4 C, in step SO8,, make photomask 110 only expose the first perimeter circuit pattern L11, the first dummy leads pattern D11 and first and overlap pattern of pixels P11 with the subregion of at least one shadow shield 111 shield light masks 110.Overlap pattern of pixels P11 exposed photoresist layer 132 simultaneously and with the first perimeter circuit pattern L11, the first dummy leads pattern D11 and first.This moment, photoresist layer 132 only passed through exposure technology, and did not carry out developing process as yet, was represented by dotted lines not develop as yet but be transferred to the various patterns of photoresist layer 132 in graphic.
Then, please refer to Fig. 4 D, in step S10, mobile photomask 110 is so that the second coincidence pattern of pixels P12 of photomask 110 overlaps the position of pattern of pixels P11 corresponding to first on the substrate 131.And with the subregion of shadow shield 111 shield light masks 110, photomask 110 is exposed second overlaps pattern of pixels P12, center pixel pattern P the 10, the 3rd overlaps pattern of pixels P13 and sixfold closes pattern of pixels P16.
Simultaneously and with second of photomask 110 overlap pattern of pixels P12, center pixel pattern P the 10, the 3rd overlaps pattern of pixels P13 and sixfold closes pattern of pixels P16 exposed photoresist layer 132.Owing to second of photomask 110 overlaps the position of pattern of pixels P12 corresponding to the first coincidence pattern of pixels P11 of substrate 131, therefore on substrate 131, second overlaps the position of pattern of pixels P12 double exposure in the first coincidence pattern of pixels P11.The pattern of the pattern of the first exposure region A11 of photomask 110 and the second exposure region A12 of photomask 110 promptly overlaps pattern of pixels P12 by second and the first coincidence pattern of pixels P11 engages.
Then, please refer to Fig. 4 E, in step S12, mobile photomask 110 is so that the 5th the overlapping pattern of pixels P15 and second and overlap pattern of pixels P12 and overlap the position that pattern of pixels P13 and sixfold close pattern of pixels P16 corresponding to the 3rd on the substrate 131 of photomask 110.And,, photomask 110 overlaps that pattern of pixels P15, second overlaps pattern of pixels P12, center pixel pattern P the 10, the 3rd overlaps pattern of pixels P13 and sixfold closes pattern of pixels P16 so that exposing the 5th with the subregion of shadow shield 111 shield light masks 110.
Simultaneously, overlap that pattern of pixels P15, second overlaps pattern of pixels P12, center pixel pattern P the 10, the 3rd overlaps pattern of pixels P13 and sixfold closes pattern of pixels P16 exposed photoresist layer 132 and with the 5th of photomask 110.Because the 5th of photomask 110 overlaps pattern of pixels P15 and second and overlaps pattern of pixels P12 and overlap the position that pattern of pixels P13 and sixfold close pattern of pixels P16 corresponding to the 3rd of substrate 131, therefore the 5th overlap pattern of pixels P15 and second and overlap pattern of pixels P12 double exposure and overlap the position that pattern of pixels P13 and sixfold close pattern of pixels P16 in the 3rd.
Then, please refer to Fig. 4 F, in step S14, mobile photomask 110 is so that the 5th the overlapping pattern of pixels P15 and second and overlap pattern of pixels P12 and overlap the position that pattern of pixels P13 and sixfold close pattern of pixels P16 corresponding to the 3rd of right side on the substrate 131 of photomask 110.And,, photomask 110 overlaps that pattern of pixels, second overlaps pattern of pixels P12, center pixel pattern P 10 and the 3rd overlaps pattern of pixels P13 so that exposing the 5th with the subregion of shadow shield 111 shield light masks 110.
Overlap pattern of pixels P15, the second coincidence pattern of pixels P12, center pixel pattern P 10 and the 3rd coincidence pattern of pixels P13 exposed photoresist layer 132 simultaneously, and with the 5th of photomask 110.Because the 5th of photomask 110 overlaps pattern of pixels P15 and second and overlaps pattern of pixels P12 and overlap the position that pattern of pixels P13 and sixfold close pattern of pixels P16 corresponding to the 3rd of substrate 131, therefore the 5th overlap pattern of pixels P15 and second and overlap pattern of pixels P12 double exposure and overlap the position that pattern of pixels P13 and sixfold close pattern of pixels P16 in the 3rd.
Then, please refer to Fig. 4 G, in step S16, mobile photomask 110 overlaps pattern of pixels P13 so that the quadruple of photomask 110 is closed pattern of pixels P14 corresponding to the 3rd of right side on the substrate 131.And,, photomask 110 closes pattern of pixels P14, the second dummy leads pattern D12 and the second perimeter circuit pattern L12 so that exposing quadruple with the subregion of shadow shield 111 shield light masks 110.
Simultaneously, close pattern of pixels P14, the second dummy leads pattern D12 and the second perimeter circuit pattern L12 exposed photoresist layer 132 with the quadruple of photomask 100.Because the quadruple of photomask 110 is closed the position of pattern of pixels P14 corresponding to the 3rd coincidence pattern of pixels P13 of substrate 131, therefore quadruple is closed the position of pattern of pixels P14 double exposure in the 3rd coincidence pattern of pixels P13.
Then, please refer to Fig. 4 H, in step S18, with a developer solution patterning photoresist layer 132.
Then, referring again to Fig. 4 H, in step S20, be shade etching substrates 131 with the photoresist layer 132 of patterning.So promptly finish the line pattern of one photo-marsk process of thin film transistor base plate 130.
In addition, in above-mentioned steps, come mobile shade 111 by a travel mechanism (not illustrating), and expose with a light beam.Travel mechanism for example is step motor or servo motor.Under certain precision, travel mechanism has a minimum displacement, and the displacement of travel mechanism can be less than this minimum displacement.That is to say that when travel mechanism desired mobile shade 111 to ad-hoc location, because travel mechanism can't be displaced into shadow shield 111 in the distance less than minimum displacement, so shadow shield 111 may form mechanism's bit errors in minimum displacement.
In addition, light beam has a diffraction scope, and light beam also may will form the optical registration error in this diffraction scope.
In step S10, as Fig. 4 D and shown in Figure 1.The edge of shadow shield 111 (shadow shield 111 is illustrated in Fig. 4 D) overlaps the boundary line L (boundary line L is illustrated in Fig. 1) that pattern of pixels P15 and second overlaps pattern of pixels P12 to being positioned at the 5th of photomask 110, overlaps pattern of pixels P15 and exposes the second heavy pattern of pixels P12 that closes so as to covering the 5th.The influence of the mechanism's bit errors of shadow shield 111 and the optical registration error of light beam may overlap the part the 5th near boundary line L pattern of pixels P15 double exposure on the first dummy leads pattern D11 of substrate 131.Because the first dummy leads pattern D11 is positioned at non-display area, so the bit errors of the bit errors of shadow shield 111 and light beam can't produce bad joint mark in the viewing area, more can not influence the briliancy homogeneity of viewing area.
Moreover, overlap pattern of pixels P15 with the 5th of the first dummy leads pattern D11 double exposure and can't destroy the first dummy leads pattern D11, therefore the first peripheral lead pattern L11 and the first dummy leads pattern D11 still can keep excellent function.
Preferably, as shown in Figure 1, under the influence of the optical registration error of mechanism's bit errors of shadow shield 111 and light beam, the width W D11 of the first dummy leads pattern D11 of present embodiment only needs greater than the minimum displacement of shadow shield 111 and the diffraction scope sum of light beam, can make careless exposed portions the 5th overlap pattern of pixels P15 all double exposure on the first dummy leads pattern D11.
Wherein, the first dummy leads pattern D11 of present embodiment adopts lead pattern and does not adopt the virtual pixel pattern.Under the condition of the diffraction scope sum of the minimum displacement of above-mentioned shadow shield 111 and light beam, the width W D11 of the first dummy leads pattern D11 only needs can meet the requirements at 1~5 millimeter (mm).Compared to adopting the virtual pixel design of patterns, the width W D11 of the first dummy leads pattern D11 of present embodiment can significantly dwindle.
In like manner, in step S14, under the condition of the diffraction scope sum of the minimum displacement of above-mentioned shadow shield 111 and light beam, the width of the second dummy leads pattern D12 only needs can meet the requirements at 1~5 millimeter (mm).Compared to adopting the virtual pixel design of patterns, the width W D12 of the second dummy leads pattern D12 can significantly dwindle.
Moreover in the step of above-mentioned repeated exposure, because first to close pattern of pixels P11~P16 to sixfold all be the mosaic totem, so the pattern on the thin film transistor base plate 130 does not have tangible joint straight line.
Second embodiment
Please refer to Fig. 5, its illustrate photomask second embodiment of the present invention synoptic diagram.The manufacture method difference of the manufacture method of the photomask 210 of present embodiment and thin film transistor base plate (not illustrating) and the photomask 110 of first embodiment and thin film transistor (TFT) 130 is: the first dummy leads pattern D21 is that example explains with the pattern of the source line S (claiming data line again) that is positioned at a side, and the second dummy leads pattern D22 is that example explains with the pattern of the source line S that is positioned at another side then.
The allocation position of the first exposure region A21, the second exposure region A22 and the 3rd exposure region A23 is also along with the first dummy leads pattern D21 and the second dummy leads pattern D22 and dispose along the bearing of trend of source line S.As shown in Figure 5, the first perimeter circuit pattern L21, the first dummy leads pattern D21 and first overlap pattern of pixels P21 and are positioned at the first exposure region A21, and adjacency in regular turn.The 5th overlaps pattern of pixels P25, second overlaps pattern of pixels P22, center pixel pattern P the 20, the 3rd and overlaps pattern of pixels P23 and sixfold and close pattern of pixels P26 and be positioned at the second exposure region A22, and adjacency in regular turn.Quadruple closes pattern of pixels P24, the second dummy leads pattern D22 and the second perimeter circuit pattern L22 is positioned at the 3rd exposure region A23, and adjacency in regular turn.
The method for making of the thin film transistor base plate of the present embodiment then method for making with the thin film transistor base plate 130 of first embodiment is similar, no longer repeats at this.
Though the manufacturing method of film transistor base plate of the foregoing description is that example explains to engage three center pixel patterns, yet the quantity that engages the center pixel pattern is also not subject to the limits, above-mentioned manufacture method also can engage two or three above center pixel patterns, with the size of extension film transistor base.
Moreover the first mosaic totem configuration of closing pixel to sixfold also is not limited to the content of above-mentioned pattern, and the deviser can dispose according to actual demand.
Disclosed photomask of the above embodiment of the present invention and manufacturing method of film transistor base plate are utilized the dummy leads pattern and are overlapped the design of pattern of pixels, make photomask after repeated exposure repeatedly, the pattern that is exposed can be bonded into the thin film transistor base plate of specific dimensions, have more multiple advantages, below only enumerate the part advantage and be described as follows:
1. by the program of repeated exposure, can engage the coincidence pattern of pixels, to make the thin film transistor base plate of specific dimensions.Therefore same photomask can be made the different size thin film transistor base plate.
2. the size of thin film transistor base plate can constantly be extended, and is not subject to the size of photomask.
3. the dummy leads pattern is positioned at non-display area, so the optical registration error of mechanism's bit errors of shadow shield and light beam can't produce bad joint mark in the viewing area, more can not influence the briliancy homogeneity of viewing area.
4. double exposure can't destroy the dummy leads pattern in the coincidence pattern of pixels of dummy leads pattern, makes peripheral lead pattern and dummy leads pattern still can keep the function of lead-in wire.
5. the width of dummy leads pattern only needs greater than the minimum displacement of shadow shield and the diffraction scope sum of light beam, can make not very exposed portions overlap pattern of pixels all double exposure on the dummy leads pattern.
6. the dummy leads pattern does not adopt the virtual pixel pattern adopting lead pattern, and under the condition of the diffraction scope sum of the minimum displacement of above-mentioned shadow shield and light beam, the width of dummy leads pattern only needs can meet the requirements at 1~5 millimeter (mm).Compared to adopting the virtual pixel design of patterns, the width of dummy leads pattern significantly dwindles.
7. after the reduced width of dummy leads pattern, increase the space of backguy, and reduced the overall impedance value of thin film transistor base plate.
8. first exposure region only disposes the dummy leads pattern that engages usefulness and overlaps pattern of pixels, so the configurable large-area center pixel pattern of second exposure region.Therefore in the manufacture process of thin film transistor base plate, can once engage large-area center pixel pattern, reduce the processing step number of times significantly, more promote production capacity.
Certainly; the present invention also can have other various embodiments; under the situation that does not deviate from spirit of the present invention and essence thereof; those of ordinary skill in the art work as can make various corresponding changes and distortion according to the present invention, but these corresponding changes and distortion all should belong to the protection domain of the appended claim of the present invention.
