Technical field
The present invention relates to the restorative procedure of a kind of liquid crystal indicator and array base palte thereof, relate in particular to a kind of liquid crystal indicator that the many places data line opens circuit and restorative procedure of array base palte thereof repaired.
Background technology
Present LCD is a main flow with Thin Film Transistor-LCD (TFT LCD) mainly, the general structure of TFT LCD (ThinFilm Transistor Liquid Crystal Display) is to comprise thin-film transistor array base-plate respect to one another, color membrane substrates and be clipped in layer of liquid crystal molecule between two substrates.Be formed with thin film transistor (TFT) and pixel electrode on the described array base palte, be formed with red, green, blue three chromatographs and common electrode on the described color membrane substrates.By to the electrode application voltage on the two substrates, LCD produces electric field at layer of liquid crystal molecule, and by the intensity of control electric field change liquid crystal molecule orientation, incide the transmittance that polarized light on the layer of liquid crystal molecule and change incide the light on the layer of liquid crystal molecule and obtain desirable image.The plane-parallel capacitor that two substrates forms, its capacitance size is about 0.1pF, (with the frame updating frequency of general 60Hz, needs to keep the time of about 16ms) when this electric capacity can't remain to voltage next time the frame update data again.Variation has taken place in pixel voltage like this, and the shown GTG of LCD will be incorrect.Therefore generally in the design of array base palte, can add a storage capacitors Cs again, so that when allowing charged pixel voltage can remain to next time frame update.
In LCD, in order to enlarge the visual angle, often adopt vertical orientated (VA) pattern, make liquid crystal molecule have different orientations in zones of different, Fig. 1 is the dot structure figure of existing VA mode LCD, Fig. 2 is A-A ' sectional view of Fig. 1.See figures.1.and.2, the VA mode LCD comprises color membrane substrates 20, thin-film transistor array base-plate 10 and is filled in layer of liquid crystal molecule 24 between substrate 20 and 10; Be formed with colored filter (CF) 21, transparency conducting layer 22 on the described color membrane substrates 20, as ITO (tin indium oxide), the surface of transparency conducting layer 22 is formed with projection (protrusion) 23, be formed with capacitor storage beam 111, dielectric layer 12, pixel electrode 15 on the described array base palte 10, described capacitor storage beam 111 is a H type structure.Change the attribute that acts on the electric field on the layer of liquid crystal molecule 24 by projection 23, thereby control light can see through zones of different, increases the visual angle that shows.Because outshot is not complete light tight zone, therefore the normal light leakage phenomena that takes place at this place reduces the contrast of display degree, for solving the prominence light leakage phenomena, need utilize blackmatrix (black matrix) to be covered.
In the array base palte manufacturing process of LCD, because influences such as the height fluctuating of substrate surface, thermal treatment, etch processs, gate line and data line are easy to break, and then cause the phenomenon of open defect to take place.And along with the area increase of LCD panel, the raising of resolution needs more gate line of production quantity and data line, makes live width become narrower, causes the raising of difficulty in process degree, easier generation broken string phenomenon.When part was opened circuit in the data line existence, the pixel with the latter half circuit control of opening circuit just can not be normally luminous, makes LCD become bad product, reduces the product yield.Therefore, in order to improve the product yield, therefore the technology of various reparation circuits just proposes.Propose utilization as patent CN1527268 and repair the method that line comes the repair data line to open circuit, but this method can only be repaired the situation that occurs the broken string of no more than reparation line number in the display panels.Patent CN200510081052.7 proposes a kind of restorative procedure that the many places data line opens circuit of repairing, and it utilizes the part that data line protrudes to repair.But this method certainly will influence the demonstration image quality of LCD like this to sacrifice aperture opening ratio as cost.
Above mentioned aperture opening ratio is the most important factor of decision LCD brightness.Aperture opening ratio is exactly the permeable effective coverage of light ratio simply.When light emitted via backlight, not all light can both pass panel, storage capacitors of using as signal lead, TFT, stored voltage etc.These places also because these local light of process are not subjected to the control of voltage, and can't show correct GTG except incomplete printing opacity, thus all need utilize black matrix to be covered, in order to avoid interfere with the correct brightness of other transmission region.Effective light transmission zone after covering just is referred to as aperture opening ratio with the ratio of entire area.In the design of TFT LCD, improve aperture opening ratio as far as possible, particularly improving storage capacitors, when carrying out the reparation of data broken string, avoid influencing aperture opening ratio as far as possible.As long as improve aperture opening ratio, just can increase brightness, and the brightness of backlight also need not be so high simultaneously, can save energy and spend.
In order to address this problem, hope can work out a kind of liquid crystal indicator and restorative procedure thereof that aperture opening ratio can be repaired many places data broken string that do not influence.
Summary of the invention
