Detailed Description
To further illustrate the technical means and effects of the present invention adopted to achieve the predetermined objects, the following detailed description of the embodiments, structures, features and effects of the present invention will be made with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples.
The invention provides a preparation method of a cathode isolation column of an organic light-emitting display device. Referring to fig. 1 to 3f, the preparation method includes the following steps:
s1) as shown in fig. 3a, the imprint mold 11 is prepared, and a pre-designed convex structure pattern is obtained on the mold 11. Specifically, in this step, the imprint mold 11 is prepared by electron beam lithography using transparent quartz that is transparent and transparent to ultraviolet rays. In other embodiments, the imprint mold 11 may also be fabricated by using plasma etching, laser holographic interference, or other techniques.
S2) as shown in fig. 3b, a layer of uv curable glue is uniformly coated on the ITO substrate 10, and the uv curable glue is free to flow and form an imprinting layer 12. Specifically, the uv-curable paste is spin-coated on the ITO substrate 10, and the uv-curable paste is required to have good fluidity in this step. In order to prevent damage to the ITO substrate 10, a transparent flexible mold, such as Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), etc., may be used as the imprint mold 11, and an opaque metal material, such as nickel, silicon, chromium, etc., may also be used. In this case, UV irradiation is performed on the ITO substrate 10 side.
S3), as shown in fig. 3b, the mold 11 is pressed into the imprinting layer 12, so that the convex structure pattern of the mold 11 is filled with the uv-curable adhesive, and the uv-curable adhesive is cured and molded by chemical reaction through exposure. Specifically, ultraviolet light is used for irradiation, so that the ultraviolet curing glue of the imprinting layer 12 changes from a liquid state to a solid state, and the imprinting layer 121 with the same shape as the convex structure of the mold 11 is obtained.
S4) as shown in fig. 3c, the pressure is released to detach the mold 11 from the ITO substrate 10.
S5), as shown in fig. 3d, the ITO substrate 10 is subjected to reactive ion etching to remove the residual uv-curable glue, and a convex structure in equal proportion to the mold 11 is obtained. Specifically, the oxygen reactive ion etching is used to transfer the pattern etching to the ITO substrate 10 by using the solid uv-curable glue of the imprinting layer 121 as a mask, and the required convex structure 122 is obtained after removing the excess uv-curable glue on the ITO substrate 10. After the residual ultraviolet curing adhesive is removed by the oxygen reactive ion etching, the oxygen reactive ion continues to act on the ITO substrate 10, so that the carrier content of the ITO substrate can be increased, and the conductivity of the ITO substrate 10 can be improved.
S6), as shown in fig. 3e, the ITO substrate 10 is inverted, and uv-curable adhesive is adhered to the top of the convex structures 122 by a micro-contact method, and then the structure is formed by standing.
In this step, when applying glue by the micro-contact method, since the requirement of the contact position is high, precise mechanical control is usually adopted, and the ITO substrate 10 needs to be parallel to the glue surface of the ultraviolet curing glue 14 in contact, and the glue layer surface of the ultraviolet curing glue 14 needs to be flat and cannot shake. After the ITO substrate 10 is inverted, the top of the convex structure 122 is adhered with the ultraviolet curing glue, the ITO substrate 10 is lifted and stands still, and the glue solution on the convex structure 122 is condensed into a circular glue drop 141 under the action of fluid mechanics, as shown in fig. 3 f. The surface energy of the glue drops is lowest and most stable when the glue drops are spherical according to hydrodynamics by controlling the viscosity of the ultraviolet curing glue.
S7) as shown in fig. 3f, curing by irradiation with a UV light source to obtain the cathode separator 16. Specifically, a UV light source is used for irradiation, so that the circular glue drops 141 adhered to the convex structures 122 are cured and formed, and the cathode separation columns 16 are obtained.
In this embodiment, the cathode isolation column 16 is composed of a first portion having a convex cross section and a second portion having a spherical shape, the second portion having a spherical shape is disposed at the top end of the convex cross section, and the cathode isolation column 16 is transparent.
The preparation method of the cathode isolation column of the organic light-emitting display device adopts the ultraviolet imprinting technology to prepare the cathode isolation column at room temperature and normal pressure, has simple imprinting process and few steps, does not introduce water vapor, greatly prolongs the service life of the OLED device, obviously improves the pixel resolution, has transparent UV glue layer and can ensure that the whole area of the OLED device is transparent compared with the prior art.
