Liquid crystal display device
Electrical optical converter based on liquid crystal is the production flat-panel screens now, especially for the flat-panel screens of portable electric appts, modern technologies.Be expected at industry this technology when large area display advances and continue dominate in future.
Typical liquid crystal (twisted-nematic phase) box is shown in Fig. 3.In this device, nematic liquid crystal places at a distance of between the two sheet glass sheets of average out to 5-20 μ m.At the surface deposition transparency electrode of sheet glass, tin indium oxide.Deposit oriented layer on tin indium oxide, oriented layer stand friction treatment so that the parallel frictional direction of the orientation of nematic liquid crystal.If the frictional direction of two oriented layer mutually at an angle of 90, then liquid crystal is got the distorted-structure shown in Fig. 4 a.Incide on this liquid crystal cell as polarised light, plane of polarization will be followed the distortion of molecule and rotate 90 ° by liquid crystal cell the time.As placing the 2nd polarizer of the liquid crystal cell other end also to rotate 90 ° relative to the 1st polarizer, light just passes through liquid crystal cell.When voltage puts on the liquid crystal cell, will between the two ends of liquid crystal cell, produce electric field.Liquid crystal molecule will destroy twisted state according to electric field orientation (Fig. 4 b).The polarizer direction that this moment, incident light ran into becomes right-angled intersection, so there is not the light transmission liquid crystal cell.United States Patent (USP) 5,623,514 have described liquid crystal cell, quote its content herein as a reference.
LCD has multiple, comprises passive and Active Matrix Display.The composition of Active Matrix Display can be two terminal parts, as diode ring, and back to back diode (backward diode) and metal-insulator-metal type device.The composition of Active Matrix Display also can be 3 terminal parts, and as thin-film transistor, material wherein is a polysilicon, amorphous silicon, amorphous germanium, cadmium selenide or the like.
Because another technology that following application potential on flat-panel screens being is is being researched and developed energetically is a light-emitting diode, particularly with the light-emitting diode of organic material as electroluminescent layer.The formation of light-emitting diode comprises injecting electrode, electroluminescent layer and electron injection electrode.What hole injecting electrode was the most frequently used is tin indium oxide.
Nowadays, the flat-panel screens overwhelming majority adopts to make based on the active matrix liquid crystal of thin-film transistor.One of course of processing that bothers most during liquid crystal cell is made is that the deposit of indium-tin oxide electrode reaches graphically.Tin indium oxide need at first utilize the evaporation technology deposit.Must carry out a few hours annealing to it at high temperature afterwards.Using photoresist then carries out graphically tin indium oxide.Photoresist is exposed and develops.By etching figure transfer is arrived tin indium oxide.Etching solution is the strong acid mixed liquor.Tin indium oxide generally is deposit before or after the tft layer deposit.In a kind of occasion in back, tin indium oxide acid etching solution can cause defective in film transistor device.
Therefore, preferably develop a kind of new electrode material, new material is compared with tin indium oxide and is handled simply, while light transmission height, good conductivity, environment and Heat stability is good, it is graphical to be easy to utilize photoetching to realize, and has good liquid crystal display performance, as high electric charge reservation degree, low image retention, and good light transmittance/voltage characteristic.Preferably also can develop the better electrode material that light-emitting diode and other devices use and electrically contact.
Conducting polymer is the newer electronic material of a class, can think the candidate materials of having great potentialities of electrode material.This polymer has the electrical property of bond and the potentiality of common Polymer Processing advantage.We introduce and replace and do not replace electrically conductive polyaniline herein, polyparaphenylene, polyazine, poly (phenylenevinylene), polythiophene, poly-furans, polypyrrole, poly-selenophen, polyisothianaphthene, polyphenylene sulfide, polyacetylene, the mixture of the copolymer of polypyridine ethenylidene and their combination and they and other polymer and monomer whose.
In order to adopt these polymer as the substitute material of tin indium oxide or as general electrode, these polymer must have suitable conductivity, be easy to graphical and have high light transmittance in some occasion.In addition, these polymer are not answered outgas, otherwise can cause device contamination.The outgas of conducting polymer can significantly reduce the electric charge reservation degree of display in liquid crystal display cell.In addition, conducting polymer need be easy to realize by photoetching graphical.Graphically can not reduce the conductivity of conducting polymer, also should not cause any deterioration of the performance of conducting polymer.So, preferably can develop a kind of method these polymer are carried out graphically, Perfected process should be to can be used for any conducting polymer system and can not cause negative effect to the performance of conducting polymer.
A kind of potential conducting polymer that can be used as conductive electrode is a polyaniline.Polyaniline (and other conducting polymers) is that the title of quoting herein as a reference is the U.S. Pat P 5,198,153 of " conducting polymer materials and application thereof ", and USP 5,200,112 and USP5, and the gang's polymer described in 202,061.
For considering that conducting polymer as polyaniline, is used as, such as, the conductive electrode of LCD, polymer preferably can show certain performance.As example, description of the invention will be example with the polyaniline, but the present invention is not limited to use polyaniline.These performances comprise:
Preferably conducting polymer in the light transmission of visible region greater than 80%, still show enough conductivity simultaneously and to the contact resistance of device metallurgy.
2. preferably show fine solubility and can form uniform coating.Coating does not preferably comprise particle, streak and tangible pin hole or defective.
3. preferably can be compatible with the oriented layer that is deposited on conductive electrode top; The employed solvent of deposit oriented layer (in most cases being polyimides) should insolublely be separated polyaniline, and do not produce serious interface and mix, and any dopant ion of can from polyaniline, not extracting.The dopant ion of extracting will cause the conductivity of polyaniline to descend and dopant ion might add oriented layer and finally enter liquid crystal, thereby destroy the performance of liquid crystal cell.
4. preferably the thermal stability of polymer can keep temperature to reach 150 ℃ at least.
5. preferably polymer does not show outgas, because any outgas all will cause the performance that enters the ionic soil of liquid crystal and destroy liquid crystal cell.
6. preferably polymer can provide good step covering power.
Preferably polymer need not strong etchant just can be graphical.
Except that above-mentioned polymer performance, it is also very important that the liquid crystal cell of being made by polyaniline also should have some performance.These performances comprise:
1. the relation property of good light transmittance and voltage.
2. good room temperature and high temperature electric charge reservation degree.
3. not residual in room temperature and high temperature hypograph.
A kind of conducting polymer, as polyaniline, it is not apparent can be used in such application and producing above-mentioned performance.Known polyaniline is by the non-conductive form (base) and acid that makes polymer, example hydrochloric acid, and the salt that reaction generates conductivity conducts electricity.This point is at Farad.Discuss.Chem.Soc., in A.G.MacDiamid that delivers in 88,317 and the article of A.J.Epstein introduction arranged.The structure of conductivity form comprises can be by the delocalization polymer radical cation of cloudy counter ion counterionsl gegenions neutralization, the application number of filing an application in January 9 nineteen ninety-five is No.08/370,127, title has introduction in the United States Patent (USP) of " disaggregation conducting polymer and precursor thereof ", quotes as a reference herein.
Make material become conductor and need ion.As everyone knows, in liquid crystal board, exist ion will cause electric charge reservation degree to reduce and the image retention variation, this is at H.Seiberle, M.Schadt is published in SID ' 92 Digest, in the article in 25 (1992) " charge carrier and display parameters are to the passive and Effect on Performance active location LCD " description is arranged.This point is one of problem of making us being concerned about most when adopting polyaniline.Use HCL acid to cause volatile movable ion as dopant.In fact observed low under 40-50 ℃ the temperature HCL from the polyaniline film outgas.This outgas can destroy the performance of liquid crystal (LC), because ion can be moved in the liquid crystal.We here make us finding uncannily, polyaniline can modification and is obtained doped polymer, no matter this doped polymer is at room temperature, the phenomenon that the ion migration enters liquid crystal still at high temperature can not take place, and LCD can have excellent electric charge reservation degree and image retention as a result.
Other care to ion is when polyimide alignment layers is deposited to polyaniline electrode top, to the normally high polar solvent of the employed solvent of polyimides, as NMP (N-methyl pyrrolidone) or γ-Ding Suan lactone, the both is the solvent of quite high polarity, the dopant ion and these ions are moved again enter oriented layer and liquid crystal of can extracting from polyaniline.This can destroy the performance of display again.In addition, the conductivity that will make polyaniline of extracting of these ions reduces.Quite amazing is to have found that polyimide alignment layers and polyaniline compatibility are fairly good and the ion phenomenon of extracting do not occurred.
Polyaniline preferably can provide good light transmittance, and showing simultaneously has enough sheet resistances and contact resistance to following data wire lines.Can regulate the light transmission of polyaniline by reducing thickness, but the sheet resistance of material is increased.Our described herein material list reveals good light transmittance, surface of good resistance and to the excellent contact resistance of metal.
Polyaniline preferably can provide good step to cover.This is a big problem when adopting tin indium oxide.In typical film transistor device structure, adopt tin indium oxide as transparency conductive electrode.Tin indium oxide is by sputtering deposit and uses common photoresist system to carry out photolithography patterning.Utilize the hot solution etching of red fuming nitric acid (RFNA) and mixed in hydrochloric acid agent then.General tin indium oxide is deposit before or after tft layer and passivation layer deposit.For the number that reduces photolithographic mask step generally is to adopt the latter.In this occasion, on passivation layer, form via hole so that the connection of the source/drain metal of the film transistor device under leading to is provided for indium tin oxide layer.Blocked up as passivation layer, the tin indium oxide problem that exists step to cover to via hole then is because tin indium oxide is by the sputtering technology deposit.On the other hand, when passivation layer is thin, generally has pin hole and exist,, and the tin indium oxide acid etching liquid may cause defective in film transistor device or bus.Polyaniline will be by spin coated or roller coating technology deposit.Therefore can provide good step to cover.Polyaniline also need not strong etchant and realizes graphical.

LED device
The patterned conductive polymer also can be used to produce electroluminescent diode.More specifically say, the present invention relates to the transparent cathode and the anode construction of light-emitting diode (including OLED), this device can provide the display of partially transparent at least on being produced on transparent substrates the time, and can provide on being made in the opaque substrate that comprises device and circuit the time can from the negative electrode unilateral observation to demonstration.The present invention is applicable to have organic and the light-emitting diode inorganic electroluminescent district.The description of this invention will be reference with the Organic Light Emitting Diode, but be not limited to Organic Light Emitting Diode.
The Organic Light Emitting Diode of describing in the former work is to make on glass substrate, and its underpart electrode is the transparent conductor tin indium oxide.The upper electrode of this device is opaque, thus the light that sends from the electroluminescent district can only from the glass unilateral observation to.Exception be recently by people such as V.Bulovic at Nature380, the structure of being reported in 29 (1996), cathodic metal wherein after the tin indium oxide deposition process in the middle of attenuate and become partially transparent.
Organic light emitting diode display on the opaque substrate or the organic light emitting diode display on the transparent substrates require the upper electrode structure to satisfy following standard: (1) is transparent to the light-emitting diode emission; (2) provide low series resistance electric current to inject to entering the light-emitting diode active region; (3) when forming two-dimensional array spontaneous emission demonstration, this diode provides sufficiently high electrode plane transverse conduction; (4) with the diaphragm that is subject to chemistry and physically impaired organic film under opposing; and (5) can be with the benign pathways deposit; the globality of layer/electrode interface can not cause damage, so can be protected to the organic layer at its deposit place.The transparent electrode material commonly used of the anode through being commonly used for Organic Light Emitting Diode is a tin indium oxide, 1-4 can meet the demands, but because it normally produces deposit in the oxygen plasma environment that damages in meeting to the organic district in the organic light emitting diode device structure, so can not satisfy (5).To too as the GaN situation of electrode.Standard (5) is actually the most marginal, although because have several transparent conductive materials, nearly all material all involves the plasma or the high treatment temperature that can cause irreversible damage to luminous organic material.
What need is transparent cathode and/or the anode construction of being convenient to make and can satisfying all above-mentioned requirements.
Therefore, preferably develop the electrode material that makes new advances, its processing technology is simpler than tin indium oxide, but can provide high light transmittance, satisfactory electrical conductivity, environment and thermal stability again simultaneously and be easy to realize by photoetching graphical.

The conductive doped polymer of P according to the present invention can be used as hole injection layer, and the conductive doped polymer of M according to the present invention can be used as electron injecting layer.
The structure of the Organic Light Emitting Diode 300 of prior art shown in Figure 18.Substrate 312 is a glass, and indium tin oxide films 314 directly is deposited on glass and form anode.But for efficient operation, organic district generally includes multilayer, and shown in Figure 18 is hole injection layer 316, hole transmission layer 318 and electroluminescent (EL) layer 320.EL layer 320 is metallo-chelate three (oxine) aluminium, (being abbreviated as S or Alq3 sometimes).Hole transmission layer in this structure is fragrant diamine.Metal alloy MgAg is deposited on the organic substance forming negative electrode 322, and this cathode thickness is opaque during greater than about 10nm.Not shownly be used for protecting negative electrode to avoid the hermetic seal of aqueous vapor effect sometimes.
The EL layer of Figure 18 structure is a member that is called in the organic one group of organic material of molecule.These are to utilize the evaporation technology deposit successively.Polymer forms another group electroluminescent organic material of demonstration and normally applies by spin coated.Polymer organic LED also is to utilize indium-tin oxide anode to be made on the glass substrate and have opaque negative electrode (normally low workfunction metal, as calcium) usually, and light can only be launched from a side as a result.They also can use multiple layer polymer to increase work efficiency.
Embodiment of light-emitting diode of the present invention is the Organic Light Emitting Diode with transparent cathode 340, and its general configuration is shown among Figure 19.Be formed in glass substrate 332 or have on the plasticity substrate of tin indium oxide (or conducting polymer) anode 334 as Organic Light Emitting Diode, then this time is just from the both sides emission, and Organic Light Emitting Diode is partially transparent at least.When an observer watches the display that is made of such organic LED array attentively, both can concentrate on the image that presents on the display, also can see the scene of back by display.On the other hand, form on opaque substrate such as silicon and utilization has the display of the Organic Light Emitting Diode of transparent cathode and can observe by watching attentively from the light of cathode side emission.It is favourable making organic light emitting diode display on silicon, because device and circuit can form before being deposited with OLED on the silicon, and device and circuit can be used to make the Active Matrix Display that has integrated drive electronics.
According to the present invention, the male or female of light-emitting diode can be undermined scratch resistant conducting polymer protective layer and formed or cover by wear-resistant, as included by quoting herein.From the Organic Light Emitting Diode with section as shown in figure 19 launch the both sides of diode (promptly from) penetrates only from top and bottom because anode and negative electrode both are transparent.
Conducting polymer described herein can provide gratifying cathode electrode by satisfying to requirements such as the transparency, the vertical conduction that is used for low series resistance, formation diaphragm and not damaged depositing technics.Undermine scratch resistant conducting polymer is " conduct electricity and the polymeric material that resistance to wears/scratch and preparation method thereof and use " at title application number and be No.08/193 about wear-resistant, 926, date of application is February 9,1994 and application number be No.08/476,141, date of application is June 7, in two U.S. Patent applications of 1995 description is arranged, and quotes its content herein as a reference.Below each is required to consider respectively.
Display device is to form by make a plurality of identical Organic Light Emitting Diodes on a bulk substrate, and Organic Light Emitting Diode wherein is arranged in two-dimensional array form and has the photoemissive device that control is sent from each diode.Say that generally image is (the passive matrix mode) that is formed by a lead on Figure 20 A, such as, make selected capable lead 490 be in positive voltage Vr, and all not chosen capable leads 492 keep earth potential.Each column wire 494,496 is applied a voltage, wherein i be the column wire index and until maximum number of column till.So just equal Vr-Vci and this voltage just determines luminous quantity along the forward bias of selected capable lead 490 on Organic Light Emitting Diode 498,400.Be applied with reverse bias on the every other Organic Light Emitting Diode 402,404, so not luminous.
For being shown in the array of Figure 20 A, have only that Organic Light Emitting Diode just can be luminous when addressing is this row lead, in showing, the high information content produces a flicker.This can be remedied by the array shown in Figure 20 B (active matrix mode), uses the circuit that comprises in each crosspoint to come column conductor voltage sampling in this manner and keeps by other row leads of addressing.In this occasion, the shared common cathode of all diodes.Because it is little and fast that these circuit need, most convenient is to make monocrystalline silicon.In this 2nd kind of occasion, substrate is opaque and need a transparent negative electrode observe image.
