When transistor TR1 is turned on, luminance signal Yc voltage level is held in capacitor Cg, and puts on transistor TR2 gate electrode G2.The corresponding driving current of voltage of TR2 pairs of the transistor with putting on gate electrode G2 is carried out from drain electrode D2 streams Converted to voltage/current as source electrode S2.Thus, light emitting diode OLED is provided from power bus Vdd and believed with brightness Number corresponding electric currents of Yc, light emitting diode OLED is with Intensity LEDs corresponding with the size of the electric current.
This image element circuit is for example constituted as shown in fig. 4 a and fig. 4b.Fig. 4 A are to represent in an image element circuit only The figure of transistor TR1, TR2 planar configuration is shown, Fig. 4 B are 4B-4B in Fig. 4 A to regarding section.In addition, Fig. 4 A and Fig. 4 B institutes The transistor shown is bottom gate type, first, by the formation such as stamped method in recess on the upper surface of substrate P, by based on The formation gate electrode such as print process or non-electrolytic plating method of conductive ink G1, G2.On the gate electrode as shown in Figure 4 B that Sample is laminated gate insulating film Is, still, here, gate insulating film Is and non-formation in the entire surface of substrate P, but with crystalline substance Formed between body pipe TR1 and TR2 for by transistor TR1 source electrode S1 and opening that transistor TR2 gate electrode G2 is electrically connected Oral area HA mode is formed by the deposition process of the selectivity such as print process, ink-jet method.In addition it is also possible to pass through sprayed deposit Method forms the layer of gate electrode.
Semiconductor layer MS and each crystal based on the organic, oxide-based or CNT provided as solution etc. The forming region of pipe accordingly, is selectively deposited on dielectric film Is by print process, ink-jet method etc..When for making partly to lead At the end of (less than 200 DEG C) such as the process annealings of body layer MS crystallizations (orientation), the coatings such as conductive ink and drain electrode are used D1, D2 and the corresponding pattern of source electrode S1, S2.Now, in dielectric film Is opening portion HA, transistor TR2 gate electrode G2 Expose, when using coating corresponding patterns with transistor TR1 source electrode S1 such as conductive inks, the endogenous electricity of HA in opening portion Pole S1 is attached with gate electrode G2.
In the image element circuit with this structure, the technique of present embodiment can for example form gate electrode G1, G2 Process, form semiconductor layer MS process or formed and applied in the process of drain electrode D1, D2 and source electrode S1, S2.But, During by spray deposition formation film, expect the size according to the pattern to be formed and will make to include former material material The concentration of the raw material material included in spraying size, the spraying during solution atomization of matter, the concentration of the spraying in carrier gas are (following Collectively referred to as spray concentration), temperature in the flow velocity of carrier gas and reative cell TC etc. optimizes.
In the present embodiment, it is fine with conventional photoetching process identical in order to expeditiously be formed by spray deposition Pattern, applies the material (silane coupler) that lyophily, lyophoby change by photonasty in substrate P, will be by fine figure Light after case forms the pattern of the fine of the contrast with hydrophilic/hydrophobic to irradiation in substrate P.Therefore, in substrate P Surface in, the high region HPR of lyophily is compared with the high region HPB of lyophobicity, and its surface can increase, thus easily attachment spray Mist, raw material material can be deposited optionally.
Here, Epb, the surface energy by the high region HPR of lyophily can be set to by the high region HPB of lyophobicity surface by working as Be set to Epr, the surface of the solvent of spraying can be set to Eem, spray diameter is set to φ m, the size for the pattern that will be formed When (minimum feature etc.) is set to Δ Dp, be set as meeting in following relations I, relations I I any one or both relation.
Relations I:Surface can Epb<Eem<Epr
Relations I I:Spray size (diameter) 0.2 Δ Dp<φm<ΔDp
In the case that spray diameter φ m are big compared with the minimum feature Δ Dp with pattern to be formed, in the high area of lyophily On domain HPR (line width Δ Dp), spraying is overflowed and adhered to, but the spraying sometimes grows into big spraying due to its own face energy, Overflow and flow from the high region HPR of lyophily.Therefore, not spray excessive preferably compared with the pattern magnitude (Δ Dp) to be formed Mist diameter.In addition, when spray diameter is too small, the sedimentation time for forming pattern is long, so that productivity ratio can be reduced.
As one, in the image element circuit shown in Fig. 4 A and Fig. 4 B, by constitute transistor TR1, TR2 drain electrode and The pattern line-width of source electrode is set to 20 μm or so, the pattern line-width of gate electrode is set to 6 μm or so, the size by semiconductor layer MS It is set in the case of 40 × 30 μm or so, is 1.2 μm by spraying size φ m during spray deposition formation gate electrode<φm<6 μm, it is 6 μm by spraying size φ m during spray deposition formation semiconductor layer MS<φm<30μm.In addition, for forming TFT Electrode (wiring) layer, semiconductor layer, dielectric film etc. in terms of electrical property optimum thickness it is different, it is therefore desirable to according to what is deposited The thickness of pattern come change the spray concentration in reative cell TC, change substrate P transporting velocity or spray gas flow velocity, change The adjustment of temperature in reative cell TC etc..

(the 3rd embodiment)
Figure 5 illustrates sprayed deposit processing unit U4 in, preferably meet above-mentioned relation I or relations I I, and And the spray concentration in reative cell TC, gas flow rate, temperature, transporting velocity of substrate P etc. are set to adjusting parameter in advance.This is Thickness, compactness for the raw material material that controls to deposit in the high region HPR of the lyophily in substrate P.Also, set The function of the thickness of the raw material material deposited in the high region HPR of lyophily is measured, according to its measured value, is dynamically changed The processing time of sprayed deposit, condition (adjusting parameter), are also useful.
Fig. 6 represents to be provided with the thickness for measuring deposited pattern in the processing unit U4 of the sprayed deposit shown in Fig. 5 One of the function of degree, to marking identical reference with the structure of the part identical function in Fig. 5.In figure 6, lead to The driven roller DR8 being arranged in the differential exhaust chamber DE1 and driven roller DR9 being arranged in differential exhaust chamber DE2 is crossed, by substrate P keeps regulation tension force in reative cell TC and conveyed to X-direction.
In the present embodiment, the position of the close differential exhaust chamber DE1 in reative cell TC, from blender ULW1 connections Oriented substrate P surface sprays the first jet NZ1 of the gas after the atomization of the solution comprising raw material material, downstream also from Blender ULW2 is connected with the second nozzle NZ2 of the gas after the atomization for spraying the solution comprising raw material material.By unit control Portion CUC processed is suitably controlled to two blenders ULW1, ULW2, so as to be wrapped from each nozzle NZ1, NZ2 gas sprayed The spray concentration contained is identical or difference.Can by changing from supply unit GS2 (reference picture 5) to each blender ULW1, ULW2 supply carrier gas with from atomizer GS1 (reference picture 5) to the mixing of each blender ULW1, ULW2 spray gas supplied Than realizing spray concentration.
The close differential exhaust chamber DE2 in the downstream in reative cell TC position is provided with for attracting and reclaiming from nozzle The nozzle VT for the gas that NZ1, NZ2 spray, gas in reative cell TC by the exhaust unit Exo flows controlled to be transported to back Closing in portion De.By adjusting the gas flow attracted from the total flow of nozzle NZ1, NZ2 gas sprayed and by nozzle VT, energy Enough air-flows formed in reative cell TC along the conveying direction (X-direction) of substrate P.The speed ratio substrate P of the air-flow can be made Transporting velocity it is slow, fast or identical with the transporting velocity of substrate P.
In Fig. 6 structure, from the stream of nozzle NZ1 or nozzle NZ2 untill nozzle VT in reative cell TC it Between carry out sprayed deposit, but the adjusting range of spray concentration is big, and the stream of gas can be adjusted according to the transporting velocity of substrate P Speed, therefore, it is possible to be implemented as expecting the pattern formation (deposition) of thickness.
In addition, in the present embodiment, in reative cell TC, in gas recovery with nozzle VT downstream and in most downstream Position on be provided with and surveyed for the thickness of the solution comprising raw material material to being deposited in substrate P as spraying Fixed measurement sensor TMS, its measured value is sent to unit control unit CUC.Unit control unit CUC be based on the measured value come Judge whether to adjust the processing conditions (spray concentration, gas flow rate, temperature etc.) in reative cell TC.In the tune as processing conditions In the case that transporting velocity that is whole and making substrate P changes, driving electricity of the unit control unit CUC to driven roller DR9 (or DR8) Machine output signal Ds1, adjusts rotary speed.

One of the test pattern is shown using marked region MK1 as representative, in the figure 7 the dashed circle of lower section In show.Many test patterns can be formed in marked region MK1, the test of the different line blank shape of line width can be configured Pattern MPa, MPd, MPe, MPg, MPh, circular test pattern MPb, rectangular-shaped big test pattern MPc, the survey of two-dimentional point-like Attempt case MPf etc..In the test pattern of line & blank shapes, the figure that spacing direction is the pattern of X-direction and spacing direction is Y-direction Case constitutes one group.In addition, test pattern MPe is that diagonally 45 ° of directions arrange multiple and formed, test pattern by the line of L-shaped MPh is formed as 45 ° of oblique grid pattern.
The line width of line & blank can be accordingly determined with the size of the pattern formed by sprayed deposit.For example in substrate In P panel zone 100 by the electrode pattern of sprayed deposit 20 μm of line width of formation, wiring pattern in the case of, be used as test The line & blank of pattern, for example, will make four groups of exposures in processing unit U3 of line width variation as 40 μm, 30 μm, 20 μm, 15 μm Exposed in light process together with the mask pattern of panel zone 100.On other test pattern MPb, MPc, MPf, also need to The test pattern to be measured exposes together in processing unit U3 exposure process.
In addition it is also possible to only form Y in marked region MK4, MK5 of the both sides for the Y-direction for being configured at panel zone 100 The test pattern for the wire that the width in direction is several mm or so and the length of X-direction is tens mm.If like this in substrate P Length direction on elongated test pattern is set, then for example by the measurement sensor TMS in the reative cell TC shown in Fig. 6, It need not stop the conveying of substrate P, transfiguration is measured to being formed at marked region MK4, MK5 thickness of test pattern Easily.
In addition, marked region MK1 and mark zone can be observed by the measurement sensor TMS with measurement visual field St1 Domain MK4, can observe marked region MK2 by the measurement sensor TMS with measurement visual field St2, can be by with survey Visual field St3 measurement sensor TMS is measured to observe marked region MK3 and marked region MK5, but can also be with by Fig. 6 Processing unit U5 after measurement sensor TMS be marked the film thickness measuring of region MK1~MK3 test pattern, lead to The measurement sensor TMS crossed in reative cell TC enters the mode of the film thickness measuring of region MK4, MK5 test pattern is marked Row is shared.In addition, in each marked region MK1~MK5, by a sprayed deposit come film forming test pattern, therefore multiple In the case of the pattern formation that sprayed deposit is carried out in the range of layer, marked region MK1~MK5 position is preferably opened by every fault.
Other base patterns layer is not present in marked region MK1~MK5 as described above, therefore, it is possible to accurately measure By the thickness of the various test patterns of processing unit U4 (sprayed deposit) film forming.In addition, being used in the big of the test pattern of measurement Small (line width etc.) and the matchingly selection (change) of device pattern (pattern in display panel areas 100), therefore can also Critically control thickness condition.In addition, three marked region MK1~MK3 between panel zone 100 it is respective in, will be same The thickness of kind of test pattern is compared, and thus can also be confirmed and be corrected the membrance casting condition on the width of substrate P not With (spray concentration unequal).In addition, measurement sensor TMS can also be set up in parallel the pattern of not only measurement institute film forming Thickness also measures the sensor of its line width etc..
(the 4th embodiment)
Fig. 8 represents to make the processing unit U4 of the sprayed deposit shown in Fig. 5 and is thermally dried the processing unit of processing U5 integrations and carry out one of device of sprayed deposit while the substrate P is conveyed on rotating cylinder.
In fig. 8, the flexible substrate P moved into is via clamping driven roller NDR, the roller DR10 of tension force around axle AX1 Wound more than half cycle on the rotating cylinder RD of rotation, pass through the air turning-bar in the heat drying unit 20 as processing unit U5 ATB turns back, and is taken out of via roller DR11, the roller DR12 of tension force and clamping driven roller NDR.It is wound with around rotating cylinder RD The cylindric next door for constituting reative cell TC is provided with the circumferential scope of substrate P, is set at the circumferential two ends in the next door There is the airtight bearing Pd for making the spray gas in reative cell TC not flowed out to environment.Certainly, reative cell TC cylinder is being constituted The end in the axle AX1 directions (Y-direction) in the next door of shape be also equipped with for by between rotating cylinder RD gap closing it is airtight Bearing.
As shown in above-mentioned Fig. 1, Fig. 5, Fig. 6, the spraying from atomizer GS1 is led to carrying out self contained gas supply unit GS2 gas Cross blender ULW mixing and form the gas containing spraying there is provided the side to cylindric reative cell TC (substrate P and rotation The part of cylinder RD contacts).This is containing spray gas along the substrate P surface on rotating cylinder RD and along narrow cylindric sky Between flow, arranged in cylindric reative cell TC another side (part that substrate P separate from rotating cylinder RD) from oral area De is reclaimed Go out.
In the present embodiment, the back side of substrate P is made to be close to rotating cylinder RD outer peripheral face and convey, therefore unwanted spray Mist will not be around to the back side of substrate P, so as to keep the back side cleanly.Set in addition, working as in rotating cylinder RD along periphery During thermoregulative mechanism, the high temperature control of the response of substrate P can be carried out.
With rotating roller RD rotation, the substrate P that the lyophily portion HPR depositions on surface have spraying is conveyed in a linear fashion To the first space AT1 of heat drying unit 20, by the thermoregulative mechanism HP such as electric heater, warm air heater, make by by spray The pattern for the solution formation that mist is deposited and deposited is dried.The substrate P after dry place AT1 is passed through empty by being configured at second Between air turning-bar ATB in AT2 and turn back substantially 180 °, moved in a linear fashion in the 3rd space AT3, reach roller DR11.Separate next door between space AT1, AT2, AT3, the slit-shaped that only passes through substrate P is provided with the next door Opening.Moreover, each space AT2, AT3 are connected with reclaiming oral area De, that reclaims residual contains spray gas.In addition, passing through spraying In the case that the raw material material for depositing and depositing is semi-conducting material, space AT1 is as crystallizing semi-conducting material Or the annealing furnace that is orientated and function.
Air turning-bar ATB has the outer peripheral face of substantially half circumference of cylinder, is provided with its outer peripheral face countless micro- Thin gas squit hole and suction hole.Thus, the surface (face that deposited raw material material) of substrate P not with air turning-bar Contiguously turn back on ATB surface.Also having from the air turning-bar ATB gases sprayed further makes what is deposited on substrate P surface The effect that the pattern of raw material material is dried.
The substrate P turned back by air turning-bar ATB passes through the temperature adjustment gas quilt from the nozzle ANZ ejections in the AT3 of space Control as defined temperature, and reach roller DR11, by the roller DR12 in the space that next door is separated out, clamping driven roller NDR, The airtight bearing Pd to be configured by way of clamping substrate P, next processing unit or thickness, the survey of line width are transported to Quantity sensor portion.
More than, in the case that rotating cylinder RD carrys out conveying substrate P as using Fig. 8, set when by rotating cylinder RD diameter For 50cm or so, when substrate P and the scope that rotating cylinder RD outer peripheral face is close to are set into about 240 °, reative cell TC essence is long Degree about turns into 100cm (50 × π × 240/360), compared with reative cell TC is set into straight line like that as shown in Figure 5, Figure 6, energy Enough reduce the space-consuming (footprint) of device.In addition, the conveying substrate P in the way of the periphery with rotating cylinder RD is close to, because This in course of conveying substrate P also will not up-down vibration, so as to realize stable sprayed deposit.
