The present disclosure is further described with reference to the following drawings and detailed description.
The present disclosure provides a method for manufacturing a display panel, which is described in detail below with reference to fig. 1 to 3. Fig. 1 is a schematic flow chart of a manufacturing method of a display panel according to an embodiment of the disclosure, and fig. 2 is a schematic view of a manufacturing process according to an embodiment of the disclosure. As shown in fig. 1, the manufacturing method of the display panel includes:
step S1: providing a substrate 11, and forming the passivation protection layer 12 on the substrate 11;
step S2: coating a photoresist material 13 on one side of the passivation protection layer 12 away from the substrate base plate 11, and exposing and developing the photoresist material 13 to form a photoresist pattern 131;
step S3: forming a nanofiber layer 14 on the side of the photoresist pattern 131 far away from the passivation protective layer 12;
step S4: depositing a conductive material 15 on the side of the passivation protection layer 12 away from the substrate 11, wherein the conductive material 15 covers the nanofiber layer 14; and
step S5: the photoresist pattern 131 and the nanofiber layer 14 and the conductive material 15 on the photoresist pattern 131 are removed with a photoresist stripper, forming a conductive electrode pattern 151.
As shown in fig. 2, in step S2, the photoresist 13 is exposed and developed by using a photomask to form photoresist patterns 131 arranged at intervals, and a gap is formed between adjacent photoresist patterns 131.
In step S3, the method of forming the nanofiber layer 14 is an electrospinning method.
Specifically, the step S3 includes:
step S31: dissolving a polymer in a solvent to obtain a polymer spinning solution, and injecting the polymer spinning solution into an injection device; and
step S32: under the action of an applied electric field, a nanofiber layer 14 is formed on the side, away from the substrate 11, of the photoresist pattern 131 by the jet device.
The polymer is a conductive polymer, so that under the condition of an external electric field, due to the combined action of surface coulomb repulsion and surface tension, the polymer spinning solution is charged and is ejected from a Taylor tip cone of a jet device, the electrostatic repulsion among droplets can overcome the surface tension, electrostatic force is used as traction force, polymer jet is stretched and cured into criss-cross nanofibers, a nanofiber layer 14 is formed, and the accuracy of the Taylor tip cone of the jet device can ensure that the nanofiber layer 14 is formed on the surface of the photoresist patterns 131 and does not fall into gaps between adjacent photoresist patterns 131. Therefore, the high-selectivity stripping of the light resistance can be realized only by forming the nanofiber layer on the surface of the light resistance to be stripped.
The nanofiber layer 14 has a larger specific surface area and a high-porosity reticular overlapping structure, and is arranged between the photoresist pattern 131 and the conductive material 15, so that the contact surface of the photoresist pattern 131 and the nanofiber layer 14 is exposed by utilizing the characteristics of the nanofiber layer 13, the exposed area of the photoresist pattern 131 is increased, the contact area of the photoresist pattern 131 and a photoresist stripping solution is increased, the photoresist stripping effect is optimized, and the residues of the photoresist and the conductive material after the photoresist is stripped are eliminated; when the conductive material 15 is deposited, the conductive material particles can be dispersed, which is beneficial to the penetration of the photoresist stripping solution and accelerates the photoresist stripping speed. The high porosity of the nanofiber layer 13 also increases the permeation rate of the photoresist stripper during the photoresist stripping process, so that the photoresist pattern 121 and the conductive electrode pattern 141 can be effectively separated.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the material of the polymer is polyvinyl alcohol, and the solvent of the corresponding polymer is water or other high molecular solvent with better volatility, which is not limited herein. Meanwhile, in the embodiment of the disclosure, the photoresist material and the nanofiber layer are both polymers, and have good affinity with the photoresist stripper, which also increases the contact area between the photoresist pattern and the photoresist stripper.
Of course, in some embodiments, the polymer material may be polyvinylpyrrolidone or polyacrylonitrile, and the nanofiber layer 13 with the same or similar structure may be formed.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the solvent is continuously volatilized when the polymer is sprayed, and in order to prevent the volatilized solvent from affecting the solidification effect of the polymer, the process should be performed in the flowing gas so that the flowing gas carries away the high molecular solvent which may be generated.
Specifically, N2, which is a gas used in the embodiments of the present disclosure, may be, in some embodiments, a gas such as Ar, which has good stability and does not react with the polymer and other films, and is not limited herein.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the nanofiber film layer 13 is prepared by an electrostatic spinning method, and the diameter of the nanofibers in the nanofiber layer 13 can be adjusted according to the size of the photoresist pattern 121 by only adjusting the taylor tip cone of the jet device, so that the diameter of the nanofibers can be appropriately reduced for the photoresist pattern with a smaller area, so as to increase the exposed area of the corresponding photoresist pattern.
Preferably, in the nanofiber layer 13, the diameter of the nanofiber should be between 50nm and 2000 nm.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the conductive material is a transparent conductive material, such as ito, and the conductive electrode pattern is formed after the photoresist is stripped, which can be used as a pixel electrode of a display panel.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the 3mask process is taken as an example, the process of exposing and developing the photoresist 13 by using the mask in step S2 is a third mask process, and the characteristics of the nanofiber film layer 13 are utilized to remove the photoresist pattern and the conductive material on the photoresist pattern, so as to complete the fabrication of the passivation layer and the conductive electrode pattern in one mask process. The disclosed embodiment further includes a first two mask processes in step S1, which is described in detail below with reference to FIG. 3. Fig. 3 is a schematic cross-sectional structure view of a display panel according to an embodiment of the disclosure, where the step S1 includes:
step S11: providing the substrate 11, forming a first metal layer on the substrate 11, and performing patterning processing on the first metal layer by using a first photomask process to form a gate 16;
step S12: forming a gate insulating layer 17, an amorphous silicon layer and a second metal layer in this order on the gate electrode 16 and the substrate 11 not covered by the gate electrode 16;
step S13: patterning the amorphous silicon layer and the second metal layer by using a second photo-masking process to form an active layer 18, a source electrode 191 and a drain electrode 192 corresponding to the gate electrode 16; and
step S14: the passivation protection layer 12 is formed on the substrate base plate 11, and the passivation protection layer 12 covers the source electrode 191, the drain electrode 192, and the active layer 18.
In the present disclosure, in the step S13, the mask used in the second masking process is a halftone mask, and in some embodiments, a gray tone mask may also be used, which is not limited herein.
The beneficial effects of the disclosed embodiment are as follows: the embodiment of the disclosure provides a photoresist stripping method, which forms a nanofiber layer between a photoresist pattern and a conductive material, and utilizes the high specific surface area and the larger void space of the nanofiber layer to increase the contact area between a photoresist stripping solution and a photoresist and increase the diffusion speed of the photoresist stripping solution in the nanofiber layer, thereby optimizing the photoresist stripping effect, reducing the photoresist stripping time and improving the production efficiency.
In summary, although the present disclosure has been described with reference to the preferred embodiments, the above-described preferred embodiments are not intended to limit the present disclosure, and those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present disclosure, so that the scope of the present disclosure is defined by the appended claims.
