Description

阵列基板的制作方法
技术领域
本发明涉及显示技术领域,尤其涉及一种阵列基板的制作方法。
背景技术
主动式薄膜晶体管液晶显示器(Thin Film Transistor-LCD,TFT-LCD)近年来得到了飞速的发展和广泛的应用。通常液晶显示面板由彩膜(Color Filter,CF)基板、薄膜晶体管(Thin Film Transistor,TFT)阵列基板、夹于彩膜基板与薄膜晶体管基板之间的液晶(Liquid Crystal,LC)及密封框胶(Sealant)组成;其工作原理是通过在两片玻璃基板上施加驱动电压来控制液晶层的液晶分子的旋转,将背光模组的光线折射出来产生画面。
液晶显示面板在正常显示时,需要使用外接电路,如柔性电路板(Free PascalCompiler,FPC)、或者覆晶薄膜(Chip On Film,COF),通过引线连接到面板的外引脚贴合(Outer Lead Bonding,OLB)区域,实现对显示面板中的各信号线传递驱动信号。而外接电路与显示面板的OLB区域的电连接是通过绑定(Bonding)工艺完成的,Bonding工艺主要是在压合设备上将外接电路经过预压、本压连接到显示面板上,将外接电路上的外接电极和显示面板上的电极线通过异方性导电胶(Anisotropic Conductive Film,ACF)压合到一起。
在TFT阵列基板的制作过程中,通常需要在其OLB区域通过黄光工艺对栅极绝缘层(GI)进行挖孔,用来搭接第二金属层(M2)和第一金属层(M1),或者像素电极层和第一金属层。在实际生产过程中,发明人发现,第二金属层(M2)上的钝化层(PV)在栅极绝缘层的过孔处很容易发生破损而导致下方的第二金属层露出而氧化,进而影响整个TFT阵列基板的性能,究其原因,由于栅极绝缘层上相邻两过孔间的设计距离较小,通过光罩(Mask)进行曝光时,光罩上对应形成过孔的图案边缘相互影响而造成灰阶光罩效应(Gray Tone Maskeffect,GTM effect),从而导致栅极绝缘层上方光阻层过孔的孔壁坡度较陡,进而导致经蚀刻栅极绝缘层所形成的过孔的孔壁坡度也较陡,后续沉积形成钝化层时,钝化层在栅极绝缘层的过孔处爬坡时容易断开,进而第二金属层露出而被氧化。

请参阅图1,本发明首先提供一种阵列基板的制作方法,所述阵列基板包括位于中央的显示区域及位于显示区域外围的OLB区域,该阵列基板的制作方法具体包括如下步骤:

步骤S4、如图5所示,在所述栅极绝缘层3上沉积并图案化形成第二金属层4,所述第二金属层4具有与所述数条第一金属导线21一一对应的数条第二金属导线41,所述第二金属导线41通过所述第一导电过孔35与对应的第一金属导线21相接触。
步骤S5、如图6所示,在所述栅极绝缘层3上形成覆盖第二金属层4的钝化层5。
具体地,所述步骤S5中,采用化学气相沉积法形成所述钝化层5,所述钝化层5的材料为氮化硅或氧化硅。
步骤S6、如图7所示,在所述钝化层5上形成第二光阻层92,提供第二光罩82,采用第二光罩82对所述第二光阻层92进行曝光显影,在所述第二光阻层92上形成一一对应于所述数条第三金属导线23上方的数个第二光阻过孔96,所述第二光罩82具有用于对应形成数个第二光阻过孔96的数个第二过孔图案86,相邻两第二过孔图案86之间的距离大于10μm,从而在采用第二光罩82进行图案化工艺时降低GTM效应的影响。
具体地,所述步骤S6中,所述第二光罩82上相邻两第二过孔图案86之间的距离为10-12μm。
步骤S7、如图8所示,以所述第二光阻层92为遮蔽层,对所述钝化层5和栅极绝缘层3进行蚀刻处理,在所述钝化层5和栅极绝缘层3上形成对应于所述数个第二光阻过孔96下方的数个第二导电过孔36并对应露出所述数条第三金属导线23,除去第二光阻层92。

具体地,所述阵列基板为IGZO(铟镓锌氧化物)型TFT阵列基板,其上的TFT器件为IGZO型TFT器件。
本发明的阵列基板的制作方法通过增大第一光罩81上相邻两第一过孔图案85的间距至10μm以上,在栅极绝缘层3上制作第一导电过孔35时降低GTM效应的影响,使得第一导电过孔35孔壁的坡度较为缓和,后续沉积形成钝化层5时,使得钝化层5在第一导电过孔35的孔壁上爬坡容易而不断开,进而使得第二金属层2在第一导电过孔35处能够被钝化层5完全覆盖而避免被氧化。
需要说明的是,发明人通过三组实验对本发明的技术效果进行了验证,该三组实验分为实验组、第一对照组和第二对照组,在实验组、第一对照组和第二对照组中将所述第一光罩81上相邻两第一过孔图案85之间的距离分别设置为8μm、10μm和12μm,实验组、第一对照组和第二对照组中的其他步骤与上述实施例相同。通过实验发现,实验组中第一光阻过孔95会明显受到GTM效应的影响,第一光阻过孔95孔壁的坡度较陡,因此蚀刻得到的第一导电过孔35孔壁的坡度也较陡,导致沉积形成钝化层5时钝化层5会在第一导电过孔35处发生断裂,进而导致第二金属层4在第一导电过孔35处被氧化而形成氧化铜;而在第一对照组中,由于相邻两第一过孔图案85之间距离增大到10μm,因此在图案化栅极绝缘层3,受到GTM效应的影响较小,使得第一光阻过孔95孔壁的坡度较缓,因此蚀刻得到的第一导电过孔35孔壁的坡度也较缓,后续钝化层5时在第一导电过孔35处可以将第二金属层4完全盖住而避免第二金属层4被氧化;在第二对照组中,相邻的两第一过孔图案85之间距离增大到12μm,发明人发现,此时在图案化栅极绝缘层3而形成第一导电过孔35时,GTM效应完全消失。
综上所述,本发明的阵列基板的制作方法在衬底基板上依次形成第一金属层和栅极绝缘层,所述第一金属层具有位于OLB区域内的数条平行设置的第一金属导线,然后采用第一光罩对所述栅极绝缘层进行图案化处理,形成数个第一导电过孔并对应露出所述数条第一金属导线,所述第一光罩用于形成所述数个第一导电过孔的数个第一过孔图案中,相邻两第一过孔图案之间的距离大于10μm,最后在所述栅极绝缘层上沉积并图案化形成第二金属层,在所述栅极绝缘层上形成覆盖第二金属层的钝化层,本发明通过增大第一光罩上相邻两第一过孔图案的间距至10μm以上,在栅极绝缘层上制作第一导电过孔时降低灰阶光罩效应的影响,使得第一光阻过孔孔壁的坡度较为缓和,从而使得第一导电过孔孔壁的坡度也较为缓和,后续沉积形成钝化层时,钝化层在第一导电过孔的孔壁上爬坡容易而不断开,进而使得第二金属层在第一导电过孔处能够被钝化层完全覆盖而避免被氧化。
