Detailed Description
The embodiment of the invention provides a motherboard and a detection method thereof, aiming at the problem that the quality of an interface between a source electrode and a drain electrode of a thin film transistor and an active layer cannot be effectively monitored in the prior art. In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, and it is apparent that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
The shapes and sizes of the various elements in the drawings are not to scale and are merely intended to illustrate the invention.
Specifically, the present invention provides a motherboard, as shown in fig. 1 and fig. 2, including a substrate 1, a plurality of display regions 2 located on the substrate 1, and a non-display region located between the display regions 2, the display regions 2 including thin film transistors 3 for controlling pixel display, and at least one detection element 4 located in the non-display region;
the detection element 4 includes: the first electrode 41 and the second electrode 42 are disposed on the same layer as the source/drain electrode of the thin film transistor 3, the third electrode 43 is disposed on the same layer as the active layer of the thin film transistor, the first electrode 41 overlaps with the third electrode 43, the second electrode 42 overlaps with the third electrode 43, and the first electrode 41 does not overlap with the second electrode 42.
It should be noted that, in the motherboard provided in the embodiment of the present invention, in fig. 1, each detection element is located at a non-display area between two different display areas, and of course, each detection element may be located in the non-display area in a regular manner or an irregular manner, where the non-display area refers to a frame area of a display panel, but the motherboard is cut in a structure in which the display panel is manufactured, and the detection element is located at the cut-off area.
Specifically, in the mother board provided in the embodiment of the present invention, the detection element is formed while the source-drain electrode and the active layer of the display panel are prepared, and before other film layers are not prepared after the source-drain electrode and the active layer are prepared, the contact resistance between the first electrode, the second electrode, and the third electrode in the detection element located in the display region is measured, and the contact resistance between the source-drain electrode and the active layer in the display region is represented by the contact resistance between the first electrode, the second electrode, and the third electrode in the non-display region, so that the interface quality between the source-drain electrode and the active layer is obtained, and the process can be adjusted in time by monitoring the interface quality, so as to improve the quality of the display panel.
Wherein the measuring of the contact resistance between the first electrode and the third electrode is performed by an electrical characteristic measuring machine, two probes of the electrical characteristic measuring machine are respectively pricked on the first electrode and the second electrode to measure the resistance value between the first electrode and the second electrode, and the resistance of the non-overlapped part of the third electrode and the first electrode and the second electrode can be obtained by parameters such as the occupied area, etc., the contact resistance between the first electrode and the third electrode and the contact resistance between the second electrode and the third electrode can be obtained by subtracting the resistance of the non-overlapped part of the third electrode and the first electrode from the resistance value measured between the first electrode and the second electrode, the contact resistance between the source and drain electrodes and the active layer of the thin film transistor in the display area is represented through the contact resistance, so that the film layer of the thin film transistor is prevented from being damaged.
An embodiment of the present invention provides a motherboard, including a substrate, a plurality of display regions located on the substrate, and a non-display region located between the display regions, where the display regions include thin film transistors for controlling pixel display, including: at least one sensing element located in the non-display area; the detection element includes: the thin film transistor comprises a first electrode and a second electrode which are arranged on the same layer as a source electrode and a drain electrode of the thin film transistor, and a third electrode which is arranged on the same layer as an active layer of the thin film transistor, wherein an overlapping area exists between the first electrode and the third electrode, an overlapping area exists between the second electrode and the third electrode, and the first electrode and the second electrode are not overlapped. The quality of an interface between the source and drain electrodes and the active layer in the thin film transistor is reflected by arranging the detection elements which are equal to the active layer and the source and drain electrodes in the non-display area and detecting the contact resistance between the first electrode or the second electrode and the third electrode in the non-display area, so that the quality of the interface between the source and drain electrodes and the active layer is monitored, and the quality of the display panel is improved.
Optionally, in the motherboard provided in the embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 3, the detection element further includes: a first detection electrode 45 and a second detection electrode 46, the first detection electrode 45 and the second detection electrode 46 being connected to the first electrode 41 and the second electrode 42, respectively, through a lead 44.
When the detection element comprises a first electrode, a second electrode, a third electrode, a first detection electrode, a second detection electrode and a lead, two probes of an electrical characteristic measuring machine can be respectively inserted into the first detection electrode and the second detection electrode to detect the resistance value between the first detection electrode and the second detection electrode, and the known resistances of the first detection electrode, the second detection electrode, the lead and the non-overlapped part of the third electrode and the first electrode and the second electrode are subtracted by the resistance value to obtain the contact resistance between the first electrode, the second electrode and the third electrode.
Specifically, in the motherboard provided in the embodiment of the present invention, if the first detection electrode, the second detection electrode, and the lead wire are not provided, when the electrical characteristic measuring machine is used for detection, the probe of the electrical characteristic measuring machine needs to be inserted into the first electrode and the second electrode for measurement, so that the film layers of the first electrode and the second electrode are damaged, and the damage of the film layers affects the accuracy of the detection result.
Optionally, in the motherboard provided in the embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 4, the motherboard includes at least three detection elements in the non-display area: a first detecting element a, a second detecting element b and a third detecting element c, wherein the overlapping area of the first electrode 41 and the third electrode 43 in all the detecting elements is equal to the overlapping area of the second electrode 42 and the third electrode 43;
the sum of the areas of the first detection electrodes 45 and the second detection electrodes 46 of the first detection element a and the second detection element b, and the area of the lead 44 are equal, and the area of the non-overlapped part of the third electrode 43 and the first electrode 41 and the second electrode 42 in the second detection element b is not equal to the area of the non-overlapped part of the third electrode 43 and the first electrode 41 and the second electrode 42 in the first detection element a;
the area of the non-overlapped part of the third electrode 43 and the first and second electrodes 41 and 42 in the third detection element c is equal to the area of the non-overlapped part of the third electrode 43 and the first and second electrodes 41 and 42 in the first detection element a, the area of the lead 44 in the third detection element c is not equal to the area of the lead 44 in the first detection element a, and the sum of the resistances of the first and second detection electrodes 45 and 46 in the third detection element c is not equal to the sum of the areas of the first and second detection electrodes 45 and 46 in the first detection element a.
Specifically, in the motherboard provided in the embodiment of the present invention, three detection elements shown in fig. 4 are used: the first detecting element a, the second detecting element b and the second detecting element c are taken as examples, wherein the first detecting element a comprises two leads 44 (taking the two leads have equal resistance as an example), and the resistance of each lead 44 is RL2The resistances of the first detection electrode 45 and the second detection electrode 46 are both RS(taking the example that the areas of the first detection electrode 45 and the second detection electrode 46 are equal), the contact resistances between the first electrode 41 and the third electrode 43 and between the second electrode 42 are all RCThe resistance of the portion of the third electrode 43 not overlapping the first electrode 41 and the second electrode 42 is RL1Two probes of the electrical characteristic measuring machine are respectively contacted with the first detection electrode 45 and the second detection electrode 46 to obtain the resistance value R1I.e. R1=2RL2+2RS+2RC+RL1. Likewise, since the resistance of the portion of the second sensing element b where the third electrode 43 does not overlap with the first and second electrodes 41 and 42 is twice as high as the resistance of the portion of the first sensing element a where the third electrode 43 does not overlap with the first and second electrodes 41 and 42, the resistance of the portion of the second sensing element b where the third electrode 43 does not overlap with the first and second electrodes 41 and 42 is 2RL1The resistance value detected by the electrical characteristic measuring machine is R2I.e. R2=2RL2+2RS+2RC+2RL1. Since the resistance of the lead wire 44 of the third sensing element c is 2 times that of the lead wire 44 of the first sensing element a, the sum of the resistances of the first sensing electrode 45 and the second sensing electrode 46 is 2 times that of the first sensing electrode 45 and the second sensing electrode 46 of the first sensing element a, and the resistance value detected by the electrical characteristic measuring machine is R3I.e. R3=4RL2+4RS+2RC+RL1
In summary, three equations can be derived:
R1=2RL2+2RS+2RC+RL1
R2=2RL2+2RS+2RC+2RL1
R3=4RL2+4RS+2RC+RL1
the contact resistance R of the first electrode or the second electrode and the third electrode can be calculated according to the three equationsC=1/2(3R1-R2-R3) That is, by detecting the resistance between the first detection electrode and the second detection electrode in the three detection elements, the contact resistance generated by the direct contact between the probe and the third electrode can be prevented from affecting the detection result, so that the contact resistance between the first electrode or the second electrode and the third electrode is only equal to the resistance R detected by the electrical characteristic measuring machine1、R2And R3And correlation is carried out, so that the calculation and statistics of the contact resistance of the first electrode or the second electrode and the third electrode are facilitated.
Specifically, the area of the non-overlapping portion between the third electrode and the first and second electrodes in the second detection element in the above-described embodiment is 2 times the area of the non-overlapping portion between the third electrode and the first and second electrodes in the first detection element; the lead area of the third detection element is 2 times that of the first detection element; the sum of the areas of the first detection electrode and the second detection electrode of the third detection element is 2 times the sum of the areas of the first detection electrode and the second detection electrode in the first detection element; the relation of 2 times is used as an example for explanation, but it is needless to say that other relations of multiple, such as 3 times, 4 times, 5 times, etc., are also possible, and the relation is not limited specifically here.
It should be noted that, in the motherboard provided in the embodiment of the present invention, the non-display area may include a plurality of detection elements, and is not limited to 3 detection elements, the detection of the plurality of detection elements is performed in the above manner to increase the accuracy of the detection data, where the number of detection elements is selected according to the actual situation, and is not limited specifically herein.
Optionally, in the motherboard provided in the embodiment of the present invention, in all the detection elements, the lead, the first detection electrode, the second detection electrode, the first electrode, and the second electrode are all disposed in the same layer.
Specifically, in the mother board provided in the embodiment of the present invention, in the detection element, the lead, the first detection electrode, the second detection electrode, the first electrode, and the second electrode are all disposed in the same layer, and are prepared while preparing the source and drain electrodes in the display region, and the same mask may be used for preparation, thereby simplifying the preparation process.
Optionally, in the motherboard provided in the embodiment of the present invention, widths of the leads in the detection elements are equal, and a length of the lead in the third detection element is not equal to a length of the lead in the first detection element.
Specifically, in the motherboard provided in the embodiment of the present invention, for example, in order to ensure that the resistance of the lead in the third detection element is 2 times that of the lead in the first detection element, the line widths of the leads in the first detection element and the third detection element may be set to be the same, and the purpose of adjusting the resistance of the lead is achieved by adjusting the length of the lead, that is, the length of the lead in the third detection element is set to be 2 times that of the lead in the first detection element.
It should be noted that the length of the lead wire refers to the total length of the lead wire in each detection element, wherein each detection element includes two lead wires, and the lengths of the two lead wires may be equal or unequal as long as the requirement of the total length (total resistance value) is met, and whether the lengths are equal is not specifically limited herein.
Optionally, in the motherboard provided in the embodiment of the present invention, a sum of areas of the first detection electrode and the second detection electrode in the third detection element is not equal to a sum of areas of the first detection electrode and the second detection electrode in the first detection element.
Specifically, in the motherboard provided in the embodiment of the present invention, for example, in order to ensure that the sum of the resistances of the first detection electrode and the second detection electrode of the third detection element is 2 times the sum of the resistances of the first detection electrode and the second detection electrode of the first detection element, since the detection electrodes of the detection elements are made of the same material and are preferably prepared by one process, and the thicknesses thereof are also equal, the resistance value of the resistor needs to be adjusted to meet the requirement by adjusting the sum of the areas of the first detection electrode and the second detection electrode in the second detection element.
Optionally, in the motherboard provided in the embodiment of the present invention, the widths of the third electrodes in the detection elements are the same;
the length of the non-overlapped part of the third electrode in the second detection element and the first electrode and the second electrode is not equal to the length of the non-overlapped part of the third electrode in the first detection element and the first electrode and the second electrode.
Specifically, in the mother substrate provided in the embodiment of the present invention, for example, in order to eliminate an influence of the resistance values of the third electrode and the non-overlapping portions of the first electrode and the second electrode, when the widths of the third electrode in the respective detection elements are the same, it is necessary to set the length of the non-overlapping portions of the third electrode and the first electrode and the second electrode in the second detection element to 2 times the length of the non-overlapping portions of the third electrode and the first electrode and the second electrode in the first detection element.
As can be seen from the above, the parameter settings of the first detection element and the second detection element can exclude the influence of the resistance values of the third electrode and the non-overlapping portions of the first electrode and the second electrode, the combination of the first detection element and the third detection element can exclude the influence of the resistance values of the first detection electrode and the second detection electrode, and the combination of the three detection elements can exclude the influence of the resistance values of the third electrode and the non-overlapping portions of the first electrode and the second electrode, the influence of the resistance values of the first detection electrode and the second detection electrode, and the influence of the resistance value of the lead wire, so that the contact resistance of the first electrode or the second electrode and the third electrode is only related to the resistance value detected by the electrical characteristic measuring machine.
Based on the same inventive concept, an embodiment of the present invention further provides a method for detecting a motherboard, where when a detection element includes a first electrode, a second electrode, and a third electrode, the method includes: detecting a first resistance value between the first electrode and the second electrode in the non-display area;
