Description

The evaporation mask plate
 
Technical field
The present invention relates to evaporation mask plate required in the OLED manufacturing processed.
?
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.
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 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 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 mask plate required in a kind of OLED manufacturing processed, 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.

For solving the problems of the technologies described above, the technical solution used in the present invention is as follows: a kind of evaporation mask plate, be shaped as the tetragon metal sheet, comprise ito surface and two faces of evaporation face with indium tin oxide (ITO) substrate contacts, has the through hole that connects ito surface and evaporation face on the described mask plate, less than the opening size on the evaporation face, the via openings of ito surface and evaporation face all has reversed cone angle to through hole at the opening size on the ito surface.
In the technique scheme, the via openings on described ito surface and the evaporation face couples together opening by several real bridges, and through hole is the rule mesh trellis at mask plate and distributes; Described mask plate is rectangle, and thickness is 5~200 μ m.The angle of the via openings reversed cone angle of ito surface is less than the angle of the via openings reversed cone angle of evaporation face.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; It is vertically cut open on the thickness direction of mask plate, and its sectional view is the cucurbit shape.The direction on the long size of the opening on ito surface and evaporation face limit is that vertically the direction of opening undersized edge is horizontal; Ito surface opening lateral dimension is less than the lateral dimension of evaporation veil lattice opening.Ito surface via openings dimensional precision transversely is at ± 5 μ m; The vertical depth of the reversed cone angle opening of ito surface is at 5~25 μ m.The latticed opening sidewalls of evaporation face large size is smooth awl wall, and tapering is at 30~50 °.The vertical depth of the reversed cone angle opening of ito surface is smaller or equal to the vertical depth of evaporation face cone angle opening; When described mask plate used, ito surface and evaporation substrate ito glass closely were adjacent to, and organic materials passes through ito surface via openings evaporation to ito glass substrate.
The present invention is as follows by this beneficial effect of the invention: this kind shadow mask has tapering opening design, and namely the ito surface opening size is less than evaporation face opening size, has solved organic granular because covering of perforated wall and can't reach the problem of substrate; When guaranteeing ito surface aperture position precision, improved the yield polymer films of organic materials; Improve the rate of utilization of organic materials, saved cost.Improved the uniformity coefficient of evaporated film; 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 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.
