Abstract

The invention relates to a long-narrow trench mask plate for vapor plating, and aims to mainly solve the technical problem that organic particles cannot reach a substrate due to shadowing of a mask plate aperture wall during vapor plating in the existing OLED (organic light-emitting diode) manufacturing technologies. The long-narrow trench mask plate for vapor plating adopted in the invention is a quadrilateral metal plate, which comprises an ITO (indium tin oxide) surface in contact with an ITO and a vapor plating surface. The mask plate is equipped with long-narrow trenches running through the ITO surface and the vapor plating surface, and the aperture size of the long-narrow trenches on the ITO surface is smaller than that on the vapor plating surface. According to the technical scheme, the problem is well solved. Thus, the long-narrow trench mask plate for vapor plating can be used in the industrial production of organic light-emitting diodes.

Description

Evaporation is with long and narrow trench mask plate
?
Technical field
The present invention relates to evaporation required in the OLED manufacturing processed with long and narrow trench mask plate.
?
Background technology
Usually, the OLED device is a kind of emissive display, and it is luminous by electric fluorescence excitation organic compound.According to the type of drive that can be arranged as the N * M pixel of matrix, the OLED device can be regarded passive matrix OLED (PMOLED) device or active matrix OLED(AMOLED as) device.The AMOLED device is compared with the PMOLED device, because its reduce power consumption and high resolving power are suitable for large-sized monitor.
According to the direction that light sends from organic compound, the OLED device can be top emission OLED device, end emission OLED device or T﹠B emission OLED device.Top emission OLED device with the reverse direction of the substrate that is provided with pixel on luminous and different with end emission OLED, it has high aperture (Aperture ratio).
This device increases for not only comprising for the top emission type of main display window but also the demand that comprises for the end emitting OLED device of less important window, because can be miniaturized and it consumes seldom power.Such OLED device can be mainly used in comprising the mobile telephone of external secondary display window and inner main display window.The power of less important display window consumption is less than main display window, and the state that it can keep out when mobile telephone is in the call waiting state, thereby allows at any time to observe accepting state, battery allowance, time etc.
Organic electroluminescent LED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode, OLED) be under certain electric field driven, electronics and hole are injected into cathodic modification layer and hole injection layer from negative electrode and anode respectively, and meet in luminescent layer, and the exciton of formation finally causes the emission of visible light.For organic electroluminescence device, we can be divided into two kinds by luminescent material: small molecules OLED and polymer OLED.
At first reported since the C.W.Tang of Kodak since the Organic Light-Emitting Display device of double-deck high-level efficiency, high brightness, caused that people pay close attention to greatly, because of its from main light emission, driving voltage is low, luminosity is high, rich color and technology are simple, can be made into advantages such as ultra-thin, large area flexible device and becomes the research focus in current flat pannel display field.
Ionic liquid is liquid under near temperature room temperature or the room temperature, and a kind of low-melting organic salt of thing is made up of ion fully, and it forms ion generally is organic cation and inorganic anion.That ionic liquid has is colourless, do not have smell, low viscosity, control easily, wide phase temperature, have that gas phase is pressed hardly, character especially such as thermally-stabilised, high conductivity and wideer electrochemical stability window, and can regulate solion to the solvability of inorganics, water, organism and polymkeric substance by the design of zwitterion, be widely used in from fields such as Green Chemistry chemical industry and catalytic field, functional materials, electric light and photoelectric material, sun power, life sciences.
Above-mentioned Organnic electroluminescent device comprises first electrode, organic luminous layer and second electrode.When making organic light-emitting device, by photolithography, by etching reagent composition on ITO.When photolithography was used for preparing second electrode again, moisture infiltrated between organic luminous layer and second electrode, can shorten the life-span of organic light-emitting device significantly, reduced its performance.In order to overcome above problem, adopt evaporation process that luminous organic material is deposited on the substrate, form organic luminous layer, this method needs supporting high precision evaporation with long and narrow trench mask plate (being also referred to as shadow mask).The making of second electrode is with the making method of luminescent layer.
In evaporate process, prolongation along with the time, temperature is also in continuous rising, high temperature can reach 60 ℃, because the shadow mask opening size is weighed with micron order, and need the very thin thickness of the organic materials of evaporation to the ito glass, weigh with nano level unit, so need be strict with opening dimensional precision, opening pattern and thickness of slab.Because the evaporation that traditional technology is used is generally individual layer with the opening of shadow mask, the opening on the shadow mask does not have the tool zero draft yet, so can cause blocking of organic materials particle, influences the homogeneity of evaporation layer, and the reduction evaporating quality has increased manufacturing cost.
Traditional technology adopts the OLED mask plate of individual layer opening; and opening zero draft; as shown in Figure 1; the organic materials particle passes mask plate and is attached on the substrate from all angles; opening 1 zero draft; when particle tilts to inject angle when being less than or equal to θ, this part particle can be run into perforated wall and crested can't arrive substrate.This phenomenon can produce following problem: make the particle that tilts to inject excalation occur, cause briliancy to descend, and can not form thickness and the shape of hope on substrate.
General evaporation uses the thickness of shadow mask about 100 μ m, and the organic materials thickness of evaporation is only about 100nm, opening size minimum on the shadow mask can be 10 μ m, blocks so the sidewall of zero draft opening will certainly produce in evaporate process, but then, if only the thickness of attenuate shadow mask reduces the coverage extent of organic materials, can influence the work-ing life of shadow mask again, because shadow mask is thin excessively, yielding, the use of the shadow mask of influence reduces evaporating quality.
Traditional evaporation has three kinds with the opening kind of trench mask plate: point-like shadow mask board (Invar-Shadow Mask), grid type/slotted mask plate (Aperture Grille Mask/Slit Mask), slit shadow mask board (Slot Mask).All has the open defect as Fig. 1 opening 11 described single face zero drafts.
The invention provides evaporation required in a kind of OLED manufacturing processed with long and narrow trench mask plate, this kind mask plate has the design of tapering opening, be the ito surface opening size less than evaporation face opening size, solved organic granular because covering of perforated wall and can't reach the problem of substrate.
?
Summary of the invention

For solving the problems of the technologies described above, the technical solution used in the present invention is as follows: a kind of evaporation is with long and narrow trench mask plate, be shaped as the tetragon metal sheet, comprise ito surface and two faces of evaporation face of contacting with indium tin oxide (ITO) face, has the long and narrow groove opening that connects ito surface and evaporation face on the described mask plate, overlap described groove shape opening space and being parallel to each other in the opening on the ito surface and the open centre on the evaporation face; Port area on the ito surface is less than the port area on the evaporation face.
In the technique scheme, the groove shape opening on the described evaporation face laterally by several real bridges, couples together opening; Described mask plate is rectangle, and thickness is 5~200 μ m.Described ito surface opening comes opening by horizontal real bridge in the ito surface equi-spaced apart; The latticed opening that connects and the horizontal and vertical center of long and narrow channel form opening all overlap.Groove shape opening vertical cross section on the thickness direction of mask plate is the cucurbit shape, and the groove shape opening of ito surface and evaporation face has reversed cone angle, and the angle of the reversed cone angle of ito surface opening is less than the angle of the groove shape opening reversed cone angle of evaporation face; The cone angle of the long and narrow groove opening of evaporation face is at 30-50 °, and the lateral dimension precision of described ito surface is controlled at ± 5 μ m; The vertical depth of the reversed cone angle opening of ito surface is at 5~25 μ m.The long and narrow groove opening sidewall of ito surface small size is smooth back taper wall, and tapering is 0-8 °.
The vertical thickness of the reversed cone angle opening of ito surface is smaller or equal to the vertical thickness of evaporation face cone angle opening.The mask plate material is any one metal sheet in stainless steel, pure nickel, nickel cobalt (alloy), Rhometal, the Invar alloy; Mask plate thickness is 10~50 μ m.The long and narrow channel form opening sidewalls of evaporation face large size is smooth awl wall.It is thin-and-long at the evaporation face, does not have real bridge in the vertical at interval.When described mask plate used, ito surface and evaporation substrate ito glass closely were adjacent to, and organic materials passes through ito surface groove shape opening evaporation to ito glass substrate.
The present invention is as follows by this beneficial effect of the invention: opening has tapering, and the organic materials particle was blocked when this cone angle was avoided evaporation, and evaporation is less than on the ito glass, thereby has improved the yield polymer films of organic materials, has reduced cost; The design of opening Pear-Shaped has guaranteed that mask plate and ito glass substrate be close to the opening size precision control of face (being ito surface) in claimed range; Mask plate has the certain thickness evaporation face of the big opening design of long and narrow bar shaped, guarantees under the situation that does not influence evaporation, and mask plate has been carried out thickening firm effect.Mask plate has the certain thickness evaporation face of big opening design, guarantees under the situation that does not influence evaporation, and mask plate has been carried out thickening firm effect; Enlarge the thickness range of shadow mask, avoided because the thin excessively plate facial disfigurement that causes of shadow mask, improved shadow mask work-ing life, obtained better technical effect.
