The cleaning method of electroluminescent organic glass plate and device
The present invention relates to a kind of cleaning method and device of electroluminescent organic glass plate, belong to the electronic device preparing technical field.
In the prior art, denomination of invention is the manufacture method and the preparation facilities of organic EL device, and the application people is an Idemitsu Kosen Co., Ltd., patent is the Japan Patent of JP 09232075, disclose a kind of manufacture method and preparation facilities of organic EL device, it installs as shown in Figure 1, and its course of work is:
Be provided with the cleaning chambers 2 different with vacuum chamber 1, in cleaning chambers, will have the ultraviolet ray of directive property or ion beam irradiation to substrate 3, after the cleaning base plate, open the gate of transferring passage 4, substrate 3 is moved on in the vacuum chamber, in vacuum chamber 2, substrate 3 made and contain organic film, i.e. organic EL device.
The impurity that adopts this method to make to exist in vacuum chamber and the cleaning chambers can be attached on the substrate, thereby obtains the organic EL device that the high and low following life-span of voltage of luminous efficiency prolongs.
Use under the ion beam situation, exposure is 100 μ A/cm
2-100mA/cm
2, preferably be controlled at 500 μ A/cm
2-10mA/cm
2, and kinetic energy is 1eV-10keV, preferably selects 100eV-to count keV, the oxide electrode on so can wounded substrate also can be with the organic substance ashing treatment.
Pressure in the cleaning chambers is controlled at 10
-1Below the Pa.In order to obtain better cleaning performance, when adopting ion beam, the pressure suggestion is controlled at 10
-3Below the Pa.
The most handy oxygen ion beam, effect is higher like this.Particularly when using the oxide-base panel material, because oxide can reduce after by ion beam irradiation, make the substrate modification, thereby can avoid the damage of substrate.
Can select the ion of inactive gass such as oxygen ion beam or Ar, He, or CCl
4, the CHCl isoreactivity activates body or ion beam, perhaps with their suitable being used in combination.But when using oxide, should select the ionic species that is not reduced as substrate.Under intense irradiation, oxide can reduce mostly, selects oxygen ion beam perhaps better.
The shortcoming of this patented technology is as follows:
(1) direction of ion beam is vertical with substrate, is difficult to reduce the roughness of substrate;
(2) ion beam energy is too high, and beam current density is too big, can cause etching to substrate, influences every performance of device;
(3) be very crucial parameter the action time of ion beam, but do not have play-by-play.
The objective of the invention is to propose a kind of cleaning method and device of electroluminescent organic glass plate, be specifically designed to the cleaning indium tin oxide-coated glass, use ion beam to bombard substrate from certain angle, and suitably control density, energy and the action time of ion beam, the roughness of indium oxide-Xi conductive glass surface is diminished, and remove organic impurity on surface, can make low-voltage, high brightness, long-life organic electroluminescence device with the glass plate after cleaning.
The cleaning method of the electroluminescent organic glass plate that the present invention proposes comprises following each step:
A) the glass plate that is cleaned being placed pressure is 1 * 10
-3In the vacuum chamber of Pa, feed the high purity oxygen air-flow, make ambient pressure maintain 8 * 10
-3Pa~3 * 10
-2Pa;
B) bombard the glass plate at a certain angle with ion beam, the angle of bombardment is 30 °~60 °, is preferably 45 °, makes beam current density be controlled at 1uA/cm during bombardment
2~10mA/cm
2Scope, be preferably 20uA/cm
2~100uA/cm
2, ion energy is 0.5eV~200eV during bombardment, be 5 seconds~300 seconds action time, is preferably 10 seconds~60 seconds;
C) oxygen ion beam cleans the sheet glass end, promptly finishes cleaning process of the present invention, and the sheet glass after the cleaning can be used for preparing follow-up organic film, promptly prepares organic EL device.
The present invention has designed the cleaning device of special electroluminescent organic glass plate, this device is a vacuum chamber, be cleaned on the support that slide places the vacuum chamber internal upper part, one side of vacuum chamber bottom is an ion source, ionogenic position makes the ion beam of generation become 30 °~60 ° angles with surface of glass slide, is provided with baffle plate between ion source and the sample.
Cleaning method of the present invention and device, the ion beam that is used to clean incident has at a certain angle reduced the surface roughness that is cleaned slide, and greatly reduces the content of surface of glass slide pollutant.Used ion beam energy is low, and beam current density is little, can not produce corrosion to slide, and saves the preparation of product cost.Can make low-voltage, high brightness, long-life organic electroluminescence device with the slide after cleaning.
