Description
[ technical field ] A method for producing a semiconductor device
The invention relates to the technical field of touch control, in particular to a pressure induction sensor, a display panel and a device.
[ background of the invention ]
Display panels with touch control functions are widely used in various display devices such as mobile phones, tablet computers, and information query machines in halls of public places. The user can operate the display device by touching the mark on the display panel with fingers, so that the dependence of the user on other input equipment (such as a keyboard, a mouse and the like) is eliminated, and the man-machine interaction is simpler.
In order to better meet the user requirements, a pressure sensing sensor is usually arranged in the touch display panel and used for detecting the pressure when the user presses the touch display panel, so that the touch display panel can not only collect touch position information, but also collect the pressure, and the application range of the touch technology is widened.
In the prior art, a pressure-sensitive sensor 100 as shown in fig. 1 is generally used to detect the magnitude of pressure applied to a display panel, fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of the pressure-sensitive sensor 100, and in fig. 1, the pressure-sensitive sensor 100 includes:
a first connecting bridge 101, a second connecting bridge 102, a third connecting bridge 103, a fourth connecting bridge 104, a first input 1111, a second input 1112, a first output 1113 and a second output 1114.
Wherein the resistance of the first connecting bridge 101 is R1The resistance of the second connecting bridge 102 is R2The resistance of the third connecting bridge 103 is R3The fourth connecting bridge 104 has a resistance R4。
The working principle of the pressure-sensitive sensor 100 is:
when the resistance values of the first to fourth connecting bridges satisfy the bridge balance conditionWhen the first output terminal 1113 and the second output terminal 1114 have the same potential, the pressure-sensitive detection signals output by the first output terminal 1113 and the second output terminal 1114 are zero. When the touch main body presses the display panel, the first to fourth connecting bridges deform, the resistance values of the first to fourth connecting bridges change, and the resistance values of the first to fourth connecting bridges do not satisfy the bridge balance conditionThe pressure can be detected according to the pressure sensing signals output by the first output terminal 1113 and the second output terminal 1114.
The resistance value of the connecting bridge of the pressure sensor 100 is affected by the temperature in addition to the deformation, wherein the resistance value of the same connecting bridge is different under different temperatures and the same deformation, and since the detection result of the pressure sensor 100 is related to the resistance value of the connecting bridge, if the detection result with higher accuracy is to be obtained, the four connecting bridges of the pressure sensor 100 are all at the same temperature as much as possible.
However, when the display panel is in operation, temperatures of different positions of the display panel may be different, which may cause the four connecting bridges of the pressure-sensitive sensor 100 to be at different temperatures, thereby causing the accuracy of the detection result of the pressure-sensitive sensor 100 to be low.

An embodiment of the present invention provides a pressure-sensitive sensor 200, and for example, a schematic structural diagram of the pressure-sensitive sensor 200 is shown in fig. 2 to 4, the pressure-sensitive sensor 200 includes:
a first signal input terminal 201, a second signal input terminal 202, a first signal output terminal 203, and a second signal output terminal 204;
a first connecting bridge 205, a second connecting bridge 206, a third connecting bridge 207 and a fourth connecting bridge 208;
the first connection bridge 205, the second connection bridge 206, the third connection bridge 207 and the fourth connection bridge 208 each comprise a first end and a second end;
the second end of the first connecting bridge 205 and the first end of the second connecting bridge 206 are both connected with the first signal output end 203;
the second end of the second connecting bridge 206 and the first end of the third connecting bridge 207 are both connected to the first signal input terminal 201;
the second end of the third connecting bridge 207 and the first end of the fourth connecting bridge 208 are both connected with the second signal output end 204;
the second end of the fourth connecting bridge 208 and the first end of the first connecting bridge 205 are both connected to the second signal input terminal 202;
the first connecting bridge 205, the second connecting bridge 206, the third connecting bridge 207 and the fourth connecting bridge 208 are linear connecting bridges;
the first connecting bridge 205 and the second connecting bridge 206 are arranged in a nested manner, and the third connecting bridge 207 and the fourth connecting bridge 208 are arranged in a nested manner;
in the first direction, the first connecting bridge 205 and the second connecting bridge 206 are different in length, and/or in the second direction, the first connecting bridge 205 and the second connecting bridge 206 are different in length;
the third connecting bridge 207 and the fourth connecting bridge 208 have different lengths in the first direction, and/or the third connecting bridge 207 and the fourth connecting bridge 208 have different lengths in the second direction;
wherein the first direction and the second direction are perpendicular to each other.
The nested arrangement refers to that a gap exists in the shape of one object, and part or all of the other object is arranged in the gap of the object, and the two objects are not in contact with each other, or the nested arrangement refers to that a gap exists in the shape of both the two objects, and part or all of the two objects are arranged in the gap of each other, and the two objects are not in contact with each other.
In fig. 2 and 4, the first connecting bridge 205, the second connecting bridge 206, the third connecting bridge 207 and the fourth connecting bridge 208 are spiral-shaped, and each connecting bridge has an outer shape in which a gap exists, wherein a portion of the first connecting bridge 205 and a portion of the second connecting bridge 206 are arranged in the gap of each other, and a portion of the third connecting bridge 207 and a portion of the fourth connecting bridge 208 are arranged in the gap of each other. In fig. 3, the first connecting bridge 205, the second connecting bridge 206, the third connecting bridge 207 and the fourth connecting bridge 208 are zigzag, a gap exists in the outer shape of the first connecting bridge 205, a part of the second connecting bridge 206 is arranged in the gap of the first connecting bridge 205, a gap exists in the outer shape of the third connecting bridge 207, and a part of the fourth connecting bridge 208 is arranged in the gap of the third connecting bridge 207. Wherein, because the first connecting bridge 205 and the second connecting bridge 206 are nested, and part or all of the first connecting bridge 205 and the second connecting bridge 206 are close to each other, the temperatures of the first connecting bridge 205 and the second connecting bridge 206 can be supplemented to each other, so that the temperatures of each other are basically the same; similarly, the temperature of the third connecting bridge 207 and the fourth connecting bridge 208 is substantially the same.
In fig. 2 to 4, the first direction is a horizontal direction, and the second direction is a vertical direction. The embodiment of the invention only exemplarily shows the first direction and the second direction, and in practical application, the first direction and the second direction can be set according to practical requirements. In fig. 2 to 4, the first connecting bridge 205 and the second connecting bridge 206 have different lengths in the first direction and the second direction; the third connecting bridge 207 and the fourth connecting bridge 208 are different in length in the first direction and the second direction.
It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, the lengths of the first connecting bridge 205 and the second connecting bridge 206 in the first direction and/or the second direction are set to be different lengths, and the lengths of the third connecting bridge 207 and the fourth connecting bridge 208 in the first direction and/or the second direction are set to be different lengths, for the following reasons:
if the lengths of the first connecting bridge 205 and the second connecting bridge 206 in the first direction are the same, and the lengths in the second direction are the same, and in addition, the lengths of the third connecting bridge 207 and the fourth connecting bridge 208 in the first direction are the same, and the lengths in the second direction are the same, under the condition of the same temperature, the deformations of the first connecting bridge 205 and the second connecting bridge 206 in the first direction are the same, and the deformations in the second direction are the same, which may cause the resistance changes of the first connecting bridge 205 and the second connecting bridge 206 to be the same, and similarly, the resistance changes of the third connecting bridge 207 and the fourth connecting bridge 208 are the same, which may cause the voltage signals output by the first signal output terminal 203 and the second signal output terminal 204 to be unchanged, and may not detect the magnitude of the pressure applied to the display panel 300. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present invention, in order to enable the pressure-sensitive sensor 200 to detect the pressure, the lengths of the first connecting bridge 205 and the second connecting bridge 206 in the first direction and/or the second direction are set to be different, and the lengths of the third connecting bridge 207 and the fourth connecting bridge 208 in the first direction and/or the second direction are set to be different.
Because the first connecting bridge 205 and the second connecting bridge 206 are arranged in a nested manner, and part or all of the first connecting bridge 205 and the second connecting bridge 206 are close to each other, the temperatures of the first connecting bridge 205 and the second connecting bridge 206 can be supplemented to each other, so that the temperatures of each other are basically the same; similarly, the temperature of the third connecting bridge 207 and the fourth connecting bridge 208 is substantially the same, and the detection result obtained by the pressure-sensitive sensor 200 in this case is higher in accuracy compared with the prior art.
In addition, under the condition of the same length and material, the smaller the cross-sectional area of the connecting bridge is, the larger the resistance value of the connecting bridge is, because in the embodiment of the present invention, the four connecting bridges of the pressure-sensitive sensor 200 are all linear, compared with the block-shaped connecting bridge in the prior art, the smaller the cross-sectional area of the linear connecting bridge is, the larger the resistance value of the linear connecting bridge is, when the resistance values of the linear connecting bridge and the block-shaped connecting bridge are the same, the area occupied by the linear connecting bridge is smaller than that occupied by the block-shaped connecting bridge, because the pressure-sensitive sensor 200 is arranged in the frame of the display panel 300, the smaller the area occupied by the pressure-sensitive sensor 200 in the embodiment of the present.
Moreover, in the prior art, the distance between the block-shaped connecting bridges is relatively long, which results in a relatively large area occupied by the pressure-sensitive sensor 100 in the prior art and a relatively large frame width, whereas in the embodiment of the present invention, the connecting bridges are nested, which results in a relatively small area occupied by the pressure-sensitive sensor 200 in the embodiment of the present invention, so that the frame width can be reduced.
Alternatively, referring to fig. 2, the length of the first connecting bridge 205 in the first direction is greater than the length of the first connecting bridge 205 in the second direction, and the length of the second connecting bridge 206 in the first direction is less than the length of the second connecting bridge 206 in the second direction.
For a connecting bridge, if the length of the connecting bridge in the first direction is greater than the length of the connecting bridge in the second direction, the connecting bridge is mainly used for sensing and detecting the force in the first direction, and if the length of the connecting bridge in the first direction is less than the length of the connecting bridge in the second direction, the connecting bridge is mainly used for sensing and detecting the force in the second direction. As can be seen, in fig. 2, the first connecting bridge 205 is mainly used for sensing and detecting the force in the first direction. The second connecting bridge 206 is mainly used for sensing and detecting the force in the second direction.
Alternatively, referring to fig. 2, the length of the third connecting bridge 207 in the first direction is greater than the length of the third connecting bridge 207 in the second direction, and the length of the fourth connecting bridge 208 in the first direction is less than the length of the fourth connecting bridge 208 in the second direction.
In fig. 2, the third connecting bridge 207 is mainly used for sensing and detecting the force in the first direction. The fourth connecting bridge 208 is mainly used for sensing and detecting the force in the second direction.
Alternatively, referring to fig. 4, the length of the third connecting bridge 207 in the first direction is smaller than the length of the third connecting bridge 207 in the second direction, and the length of the fourth connecting bridge 208 in the first direction is larger than the length of the fourth connecting bridge 208 in the second direction.
In fig. 4, the third connecting bridge 207 is mainly used for sensing and detecting the force in the second direction. The fourth connecting bridge 208 is mainly used for sensing and detecting the force in the first direction.
In fig. 4, the length of the first connecting bridge 205 in the first direction is greater than the length of the first connecting bridge 205 in the second direction, and the length of the second connecting bridge 206 in the first direction is less than the length of the second connecting bridge 206 in the second direction. The first connecting bridge 205 is mainly used for sensing and detecting a force in a first direction. The second connecting bridge 206 is mainly used for sensing and detecting the force in the second direction.
Alternatively, referring to fig. 3, the length of the first connecting bridge 205 in the first direction is greater than the length of the first connecting bridge 205 in the second direction, and the length of the second connecting bridge 206 in the first direction is greater than the length of the second connecting bridge 206 in the second direction.
In fig. 3, the first connecting bridge 205 is mainly used for sensing and detecting a force in a first direction. The second connecting bridge 206 is mainly used for sensing and detecting the force in the first direction.
Alternatively, referring to fig. 3, the length of the third connecting bridge 207 in the first direction is smaller than the length of the third connecting bridge 207 in the second direction, and the length of the fourth connecting bridge 208 in the first direction is smaller than the length of the fourth connecting bridge 208 in the second direction.
In fig. 3, the third connecting bridge 207 is mainly used for sensing and detecting the force in the second direction. The fourth connecting bridge 208 is mainly used for sensing and detecting the force in the second direction.
Alternatively, referring to fig. 2 and 4, the first connecting bridge 205 and the second connecting bridge 206 are spiral, and the third connecting bridge 207 and the fourth connecting bridge 208 are spiral.
Alternatively, referring to fig. 3, the first connecting bridge 205 and the second connecting bridge 206 are zigzag, and the third connecting bridge 207 and the fourth connecting bridge 208 are zigzag.
Optionally, the material of the first connection bridge 205, the second connection bridge 206, the third connection bridge 207, and the fourth connection bridge 208 is amorphous silicon.
In the prior art, crystalline silicon is typically used to fabricate the connecting bridges in the pressure-sensitive sensor 200. The resistivity of the amorphous silicon is greater than that of the crystalline silicon, and the resistance value of the connecting bridge made of the amorphous silicon is greater than that of the connecting bridge made of the crystalline silicon in the prior art under the same other conditions, wherein the greater the resistance value of the connecting bridge is, the more accurate the detection result of the pressure sensing sensor 200 is, and then under the same other conditions, the greater the resistance value of the connecting bridge of the pressure sensing sensor 200 in the embodiment of the present invention is, the more accurate the detection result of the pressure sensing sensor 200 in the embodiment of the present invention is.
An embodiment of the present invention further provides a display panel 300, referring to fig. 5, fig. 6 and fig. 7, where fig. 5 is a top view of the display panel 300, fig. 6 is an enlarged schematic view of a portion of a display area 301 in fig. 5, and fig. 7 is a cross-sectional view along an AA' direction in fig. 6, and the display panel 300 includes:

any one of the pressure-sensitive sensors 200 is disposed on a substrate, and the pressure-sensitive sensor 200 is fabricated on the same layer as the active layer 64 or the metal layer.
In fig. 5, the display panel 300 includes a display area 301 at a central position, and a non-display area 302 surrounding the periphery of the display area 301. Optionally, at least one pressure-sensitive sensor 200 is disposed at opposite side edge positions of the display panel 300, respectively.
