Description

A kind of thin-film transistor LCD device array substrate and manufacture method
Technical field
The present invention relates to LCD Technology field, particularly a kind of thin-film transistor LCD device array substrate and manufacture method.
Background technology
In recent years, along with scientific and technical progress, digital to television starts in Stepping into daily life.(Thin Firm Transistor Liquid Crystal Display, TFT-LCD) is little with its volume, low in energy consumption, radiationless for Thin Film Transistor-LCD, and resolution advantages of higher becomes current leading products.
TFT-LCD is mainly by forming the array base palte of box and color membrane substrates, and wherein, the manufacture craft of TFT-LCD array base palte has determined its properties of product, rate of finished products and price.
At present, TFT-LCD array base palte is to complete by composition technique repeatedly, in composition technique, have respectively and comprise each time: mask, exposure, development, etching and the technique such as peel off, wherein, etching technics comprises dry etching and wet etching, so the number of times of composition technique is the standard of weighing the complicated and simple degree of making TFT-LCD array base palte, the number of times that reduces composition technique just means the reduction of cost of manufacture.Existing TFT-LCD array base palte, referring to Fig. 1, comprising: gate line 1, TFT switch 2, holding wire 3, pixel electrode 4.Generally by four composition techniques, complete, specifically comprise: on substrate, deposit grid metal, by the first composition technique, form gate line; On substrate, metal level is leaked in successive sedimentation gate insulator, semiconductor layer, doping semiconductor layer and source, by the second composition technique, forms active layer, holding wire, and TFT switch; Continue deposit passivation layer, by composition technique for the third time, form passivation layer and via hole; Deposit transparent conductive layer, forms pixel electrode by the 4th composition technique.Thereby formed TFT-LCD array base palte.

Form the outward appearance of TFT-LCD array base palte still as Fig. 4 (a) as shown in, but for the second time after composition technique the sectional view of B-B direction as shown in Figure 6, now, semiconductor layer (a-Si) and doping semiconductor layer (n+a-Si) composition step.Below in conjunction with Fig. 6, to forming active layer by the second composition technique in the embodiment of the present invention, and TFT raceway groove is described in further detail, and detailed process, referring to Fig. 7, comprising:
Step 701: deposit successively gate insulation layer, active layer and source and leak metal level on the substrate that forms gate line.
Step 702: leak on metal level and smear photoresist in source.
Step 703: photoresist is exposed and development treatment by mask plate.
Here, mask plate only includes light tight region and transmission region, comprises: the second masked areas corresponding with intersection region with light tight region on the difference mask plate of prior art.And intersection region comprises on array base palte the setting regions with the both sides of the holding wire of gate line infall.
Therefore, expose and development treatment after, on the substrate of formation, on intersection region, remain with photoresist.
Step 704: metal level is leaked in source in the region of photoresist, active layer etches away successively by not retaining on substrate.
Owing to remaining with photoresist on intersection region, therefore, intersection region still remains with doping semiconductor layer, and semiconductor layer.

In above-described embodiment, the figure of setting regions is square, but the embodiment of the present invention is not limited to this, can also be triangle, or, circular arc.
In the embodiment of the present invention, by composition technique repeatedly, form TFT-LCD array base palte, wherein, in composition technique by formation active layer, in intersection region, form resilient coating, this intersection region comprises the setting regions with at least one side of the holding wire of gate line infall, and with the setting regions of at least one side of the holding wire of public electrode wire infall in one or two, like this, in the TFT-LCD array base palte forming, comprise resilient coating with the setting regions of at least one side of the holding wire of gate line infall, and/or, comprise resilient coating with the setting regions of at least one side of the holding wire of public electrode wire infall.Therefore, in the intersection region of holding wire and gate line and/or public electrode wire, remain with resilient coating, in intersection region, form a two-stage step, reduced greatly the angle of gradient on slope in intersection region, in follow-up composition technique, this region can be coated with and spread thicker photoresist, while carrying out wet etching, has reduced liquid the probability of carving occurs to bore, reduce the probability that the holding wire of intersection region opens circuit, improved the yields of TFT-LCD array base palte.
In addition, while adopting the etching for the first time of half tone (half-tone mask plate) technique, due to the extra area that increases holding wire, even if there is static discharge intersection region, also only can puncture the extra metal in second area increasing on holding wire, and can normal signal line metallic region not impacted, avoided electrostatic breakdown to cause bad array base palte.
Adopt the etching for the second time of half tone (half-tone mask plate) technique that the source leakage metal level in second area has been etched away, therefore, the structure of the holding wire forming does not change, and the electric capacity of intersection region can not change, and can not bring extra load to liquid crystal display drive circuit.
Obviously, those skilled in the art can carry out various changes and modification and not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention the present invention.Like this, if within of the present invention these are revised and modification belongs to the scope of the claims in the present invention and equivalent technologies thereof, the present invention is also intended to comprise these changes and modification interior.
