In the related art, as shown in fig. 1, the source/drain layer lead may adopt a sandwich structure of a titanium layer 901, an aluminum layer 902, and a titanium layer 903, and the pixel electrode layer may include silver; however, in the subsequent process of patterning the pixel electrode layer, the aluminum layer 902 of the source/drain layer leads in the peripheral region may be corroded by the etching solution. The side corrosion of the aluminum layer 902 will reduce the encapsulation effect of the encapsulation layer, and will easily form water and oxygen channels to generate GDS (continuously increasing dark spots). The suspended titanium layer 903 is prone to drop to form a titanium line, which causes a short circuit between the source and drain layer leads. Moreover, the etching liquid generates silver nitrate when etching silver, silver nitrate reacts with aluminum to generate silver particles, and the silver particles easily fall onto the pixel electrode along with the movement of the liquid, so that short circuit is easily caused between the pixel electrode and the common electrode layer of the array substrate, and the OLED device fails to work and generates dark spots.
In the related art, various attempts have been made to improve the problem of corrosion of the aluminum layer by the etching solution. In one attempt, a planarization layer of the array substrate may be formed using a half exposure process such that the planarization layer exposes surfaces of the source and drain layer leads of the peripheral region and covers sides of the source and drain layer leads of the peripheral region. However, it is difficult to accurately control the exposure amount, and if the exposure amount is too large, the side surface of the aluminum layer is exposed, and if the exposure amount is too small, the surface of the source/drain layer lead cannot be effectively exposed. In another attempt, a passivation layer (PVX) may be formed on a side of the source-drain layer leads away from the substrate, the passivation layer exposing a surface of the source-drain layer leads of the peripheral region and covering a side surface thereof, wherein the passivation layer may be silicon nitride. However, dry etching is required for patterning the passivation layer, the concentration and energy of etching ion gas need to be controlled very precisely in the etching process, if the etching amount is too low, the surface of the source/drain layer lead in the peripheral region is not sufficiently exposed, and if the etching amount is too large, the titanium layer on the surface is easily etched to expose the aluminum layer. These attempts have made it difficult to efficiently improve the corrosion of the aluminum layer by the etching liquid.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, a source/drain layer lead structure is provided, as shown in fig. 2 and 9, the source/drain layer lead structure is formed on one side of a substrate 200; further, the source/drain layer lead structure may be formed on the side of the interlayer dielectric layer 307 of the array substrate away from the substrate 200. The source drain layer lead structure includes a first metal layer 110 and a second metal layer 120, wherein,
the first metal layer 110 is disposed on one side of the substrate base 200; the second metal layer 120 covers the side of the first metal layer 110 and the surface of the first metal layer 110 away from the substrate 200; the second metal layer 120 has a greater resistance to the acidic etchant than the first metal layer 110.
According to the source-drain layer lead structure, the surface and the side face of the source-drain layer lead structure are both the second metal layer 120, so that the corrosion of acidic etching liquid can be better resisted, the first metal layer 110 is prevented from being exposed and corroded by the acidic etching liquid, and the yield of the array substrate using the source-drain layer lead structure can be improved.
Each component of the array substrate provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings:
in the embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in fig. 2 and 9, the first metal layer 110 includes a first surface close to the substrate base 200, a second surface far from the substrate, and a side surface connecting the first surface and the second surface. The first surface of the first metal layer 110 is protected by other film structures supporting the first metal layer 110 due to the side close to the substrate 200, and therefore, will not contact with the etching solution in the subsequent process. The second metal layer 120 covers the second surface and the side surface of the first metal layer 110, so that the first metal layer 110 can be prevented from being corroded, and various defects caused by corrosion of the first metal layer 110 can be avoided.
The first metal layer 110 may be a metal with good conductivity, so as to improve the conductivity of the source/drain layer lead structure and reduce the sheet resistance of the source/drain layer lead structure. The first metal layer 110 may also be made of a metal with a lower cost, so as to reduce the material cost of the source/drain layer lead structure. Alternatively, the material of the first metal layer 110 may include aluminum or copper, which may be a simple metal or an alloy. In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the material of the first metal layer 110 is aluminum.
The second metal layer 120 may be made of a metal capable of withstanding an acidic etching solution, and particularly, may be made of a metal capable of withstanding an etching solution used in patterning a pixel electrode layer of the array substrate. It is understood that the second electrode layer can withstand the etching liquid, which means that it can withstand the etching liquid under normal use conditions. For example, the material of the second metal layer 120 is not corroded by the etching solution when the pixel electrode layer is patterned.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the second metal layer 120 is able to withstand the acidic etching solution, and not that the second metal layer 120 is not changed at all when in contact with the acidic etching solution, but that it is not completely corroded by the acidic etching solution, or that it is able to form a suitable structure to prevent the acidic etching solution from further corroding the second metal layer 120. For example, when the second metal layer 120 contacts the acidic etching solution, a dense protective film, such as a dense metal oxide film, may be formed on the surface of the second metal layer 120 to prevent the second metal layer 120 from further reacting with the acidic etching solution.
Alternatively, the material of the second metal layer 120 may be titanium, molybdenum, or an alloy thereof. In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the material of the second metal layer 120 is titanium.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 2 and fig. 9, the orthographic projection of the first metal layer 110 on the substrate base plate 200 is located in the orthographic projection of the second metal layer 120 on the substrate base plate 200, so as to ensure that the second metal layer 120 completely covers the first metal layer 110.
Alternatively, the acidic etching liquid may comprise nitric acid, in particular such that the etching liquid is present as dilute nitric acid. Further, a metal salt formed when the pixel electrode layer is patterned is also dissolved in the acidic etching solution. For example, the acidic etching solution may be a dilute nitric acid solution, and when the pixel electrode layer is patterned, the nitric acid may react with silver to generate silver nitrate, and the silver nitrate is dissolved in the acidic etching solution. The material of the second metal layer 120 can withstand dilute nitric acid and silver nitrate, thereby protecting the first metal layer 110.
In the source-drain layer lead structure provided by the present disclosure, the first metal layer 110 and the second metal layer 120 may be formed by two photolithography processes, respectively. For example, the first and second metal layers 110 and 120 may be formed by:
in step S110, as shown in fig. 3 and 10, a first metal material layer 111 is formed on one side of the base substrate 200.
In step S120, a first photoresist layer is formed on a side of the first metal material layer 111 away from the substrate 200.
Step S130, exposing the first photoresist layer by using the first mask.
Step S140, developing to realize patterning of the first photoresist layer.
Step S150, etching the first metal material layer 111 to implement patterning of the first metal material layer 111.
Step S160, as shown in fig. 4 and 11, the first photoresist layer is removed, and the patterned first metal material layer 111 is exposed, so as to obtain the exposed first metal layer 110.
Step S210, as shown in fig. 5 and 12, a second metal material layer 121 is formed on a side of the first metal layer 110 away from the substrate 200, and the second metal material layer 121 covers a side of the first metal layer 110 away from the substrate 200 and a side surface of the first metal layer 110.
In step S220, as shown in fig. 6 and 13, a second photoresist layer 501 is formed on a side of the second metal material layer 121 away from the base substrate 200.
In step S230, as shown in fig. 6 and 13, the second photoresist layer 501 is exposed by using a second mask 503.
In step S240, as shown in fig. 7 and 14, the second photoresist layer 501 is patterned by developing.
In step S250, the second metal material layer 121 is etched to implement patterning of the second metal material layer 121.
In step S260, as shown in fig. 2 and 9, the second photoresist layer 501 is removed, and the patterned second metal material layer 121 is exposed, so as to obtain the exposed second metal layer 120.
In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the second mask 503 may be different from the first mask. For example, the positions of the exposure holes of the first mask plate and the second mask plate may be the same and correspond to each other, but the size of the exposure hole of the second mask plate 503 is smaller than the size of the exposure hole of the corresponding first mask plate 502, so as to ensure that the patterned second photoresist layer 501 can completely cover the first metal layer 110, and further ensure that the second metal layer 120 covers the first metal layer 110. In the embodiment, the second metal layer 120 is prepared by using a new mask, the preparation process is simple and convenient, and the process parameters are easy to determine and are not harsh.
In another embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in fig. 8, the second mask 503 may be the same mask as the first mask 502. In this way, when exposing the second photoresist layer 501, the exposure amount needs to be precisely adjusted, so that the orthographic projection of the developed second photoresist layer 501 on the base substrate 200 completely covers the first metal layer 110.
Optionally, as shown in fig. 2 and fig. 9, the source-drain layer lead structure may further include a third metal layer 130, where the third metal layer 130 is disposed on a side of the first metal layer 110 close to the substrate base 200, so as to further protect the first metal layer 110. Optionally, the first metal layer 110 is disposed on a surface of the third metal layer 130 away from the substrate 200, and an orthographic projection of the first metal layer 110 on the substrate 200 is orthographic-coincident with an orthographic projection of the third metal layer 130 on the substrate 200.
The material of the third metal layer 130 may be the same as or different from that of the second metal layer 120, and the disclosure is not particularly limited thereto.
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the third metal layer 130 may be patterned in the same photolithography process as the first metal layer 110. For example, as shown in fig. 3 and 10, before the step S110, a third metal material layer 131 may be formed on one side of the substrate base plate 200; in step S110, a first metal material layer 111 may be formed on the surface of the third metal material layer 131 away from the base substrate 200; as shown in fig. 4 and 11, in step S150, the first metal material layer 111 and the third metal material layer 131 may be etched at the same time, so as to implement patterning of the first metal material layer 111 and the third metal material layer 131, and obtain the first metal layer 110 and the third metal layer 130 at the same time.
In another embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in fig. 2, the source-drain layer lead structure may further include a fourth metal layer 140, where the fourth metal layer 140 is sandwiched between the surface of the first metal layer 110 away from the substrate base plate 200 and the second metal layer 120. The material of the fourth metal layer 140 may be the same as or different from that of the second metal layer 120, which is not limited in this disclosure.
Alternatively, the fourth metal layer 140 may be patterned in the same photolithography process as the first metal layer 110. For example, as shown in fig. 3, before the step S120, a fourth metal material layer 141 may be formed on a side of the first metal material layer 111 away from the substrate base plate 200; in step S120, a first photoresist layer may be formed on a side of the fourth metal material layer 141 away from the base substrate 200. As shown in fig. 4, in step S150, the first metal material layer 111 and the fourth metal material layer 141 may be etched at the same time, so as to implement patterning of the first metal material layer 111 and the fourth metal material layer 141, and obtain the first metal layer 110 and the fourth metal layer 140 at the same time.
The embodiment of the disclosure also provides an array substrate, which includes any one of the source/drain layer lead structures described in the above source/drain layer lead structure embodiment. The array substrate may be an OLED array substrate, an LCD array substrate, or other types of array substrates. Since the array substrate has any one of the source/drain layer lead structures described in the source/drain layer lead structure embodiments, the same beneficial effects are achieved, and details are not repeated in the present disclosure.
Optionally, the array substrate provided by the present disclosure may include a substrate base 200, a driving circuit layer disposed on one side of the substrate base 200, and a pixel electrode layer disposed on one side of the driving circuit layer away from the substrate base 200. The driving circuit layer is provided with a source drain layer lead, and the source drain layer lead adopts the source drain layer lead structure described by the source drain layer lead structure. The pixel electrode layer may include pixel electrodes arranged in an array. Optionally, the pixel electrode layer is obtained by patterning the pixel electrode material layer through a wet etching process.
Because the side surface of the source drain layer lead of the array substrate is covered with the second metal layer 120, the etching liquid can not corrode the first metal layer 110 when the pixel electrode layer is patterned, various defects of the array substrate caused by the reaction of the first metal layer 110 and the etching liquid are avoided, and the yield of the array substrate is improved.
Alternatively, the pixel electrode layer may include a reflective layer and an electrode layer stacked in this order, wherein the reflective layer is disposed on a surface of the electrode layer close to the base substrate 200. The material of the reflective layer may include silver in order to achieve light blocking and light reflection; the material of the electrode layer may be a metal oxide, for example, ITO (indium tin oxide).
