Description

本発明は、光学装置及び有機EL装置に関する。   The present invention relates to an optical device and an organic EL device.

一つの基板上の配線と他の基板上の配線又は電極を電気的に接続する技術としては、異方性導電フィルム(Anisotropic Conductive Film、ACF)を用いた接続が一般的に知られている(下記特許文献1参照)。異方性導電フィルムは、熱硬化性樹脂に導電性を持つ微粒子を混ぜ合わせたものを膜状に成型したものである。   As a technique for electrically connecting a wiring on one substrate and a wiring or an electrode on another substrate, a connection using an anisotropic conductive film (ACF) is generally known ( See Patent Document 1 below). An anisotropic conductive film is a film formed by mixing a thermosetting resin with conductive fine particles.

一方、半導体素子を基板上に実装する技術として、ワイヤボンディングを用いた技術が知られている。この技術は、ボンディングワイヤの両端を、接続対象の端子又は配線に接続するものである(下記特許文献1、2参照)。また、有機EL装置などに用いられるガラス基板にワイヤボンディングを利用するものもある(下記特許文献3参照)。   On the other hand, as a technique for mounting a semiconductor element on a substrate, a technique using wire bonding is known. In this technique, both ends of a bonding wire are connected to terminals or wirings to be connected (see Patent Documents 1 and 2 below). Some glass substrates used in organic EL devices and the like utilize wire bonding (see Patent Document 3 below).

配線の導体部の上には、被覆部が形成されていることがある。この被覆部は、導体部そのものが酸化した酸化膜の場合もあるし、導体部とは別の材料で形成された膜の場合もある。このように、配線の導体部が被覆部で覆われていた場合、ボンディングワイヤとして、金ワイヤなどの比較的柔らかい材料からなるものを用いると、配線の導体部とボンディングワイヤを直接接続することが困難になる。配線の導体部とボンディングワイヤが直接接続しない場合、これらの間の接続抵抗は高くなる。   A covering portion may be formed on the conductor portion of the wiring. The covering portion may be an oxide film obtained by oxidizing the conductor portion itself, or may be a film formed of a material different from the conductor portion. Thus, when the conductor portion of the wiring is covered with the covering portion, if the bonding wire is made of a relatively soft material such as a gold wire, the wiring conductor portion and the bonding wire can be directly connected. It becomes difficult. When the conductor portion of the wiring and the bonding wire are not directly connected, the connection resistance between them becomes high.

また、特許文献3のように、有機EL装置にワイヤボンディングを利用する場合、有機EL装置を構成する有機EL素子(上部電極、有機層、下部電極)を電流で駆動する必要がある。このため、配線に対し、必要な電流が流れるように配線とボンディングワイヤの接続部の接続抵抗を低くする必要がある。接続抵抗を下げることにより、駆動電圧を下げ、有機EL装置の輝度を上げる工夫が必要となる。   Further, as in Patent Document 3, when wire bonding is used in an organic EL device, it is necessary to drive organic EL elements (upper electrode, organic layer, lower electrode) constituting the organic EL device with current. For this reason, it is necessary to lower the connection resistance of the connection portion between the wiring and the bonding wire so that a necessary current flows through the wiring. By reducing the connection resistance, it is necessary to devise a technique for reducing the drive voltage and increasing the luminance of the organic EL device.

本発明が解決しようとする課題としては、配線の導体部の上に被覆膜が形成されている場合において、配線と接続部材との間の接続抵抗を低くすることが一例として挙げられる。   An example of a problem to be solved by the present invention is to lower the connection resistance between the wiring and the connection member when a coating film is formed on the conductor portion of the wiring.

図1は、実施形態に係る光学装置の構成を示す断面図である。この光学装置は、例えば有機EL(Organic Electroluminescence)装置である。以下、光学装置が有機EL装置100として、説明を行う。   FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view illustrating a configuration of an optical device according to an embodiment. This optical device is, for example, an organic EL (Organic Electroluminescence) device. Hereinafter, the optical device will be described as the organic EL device 100.

本実施形態に係る有機EL装置100は、有機EL素子10、配線3、及び接続部材5を備えている。配線3は、後述するように、導電部3Aの上に第1被覆部3Bを積層した構成を有している。第1被覆部3Bは、例えば導電性の膜である。接続部材5は、例えばボンディングワイヤであり、後述するように、芯部5A及び第2被覆部5Bを備えている。第2被覆部5Bは、芯部5Aを覆っている。接続部材5は、配線3に、第1被覆部3B側から接続している。そして、配線3と接続部材5との接続部の少なくとも一部は、導電部3Aと芯部5Aとが第1被覆部3B及び第2被覆部5Bを介さずに接続している接合部となっている。以下、詳細に説明する。   An organic EL device 100 according to this embodiment includes an organic EL element 10, a wiring 3, and a connection member 5. As will be described later, the wiring 3 has a configuration in which the first covering portion 3B is laminated on the conductive portion 3A. The first covering portion 3B is a conductive film, for example. The connecting member 5 is, for example, a bonding wire, and includes a core portion 5A and a second covering portion 5B as will be described later. The second covering portion 5B covers the core portion 5A. The connecting member 5 is connected to the wiring 3 from the first covering portion 3B side. At least a part of the connection portion between the wiring 3 and the connection member 5 is a joint portion where the conductive portion 3A and the core portion 5A are connected without the first covering portion 3B and the second covering portion 5B. ing. Details will be described below.

有機EL装置100は、例えば照明装置又はディスプレイ装置である。本図に示す例において、有機EL素子10は、基板1の第1面に形成されている。基板1は、可撓性を有していても良い。有機EL素子10が発光素子である場合、基板1の第1面とは逆側の面(第2面)が光射出面となっている。この場合、基板1は、有機EL素子10が発光する光に対して透光性を有する材料により形成されている。このような材料としては、例えばガラスや樹脂材料がある。ただし、基板1の第1面側が光射出面であっても良い。この場合、基板1は、有機EL素子10が発光する光に対して透光性を有していなくてもよい。   The organic EL device 100 is, for example, a lighting device or a display device. In the example shown in this figure, the organic EL element 10 is formed on the first surface of the substrate 1. The substrate 1 may have flexibility. When the organic EL element 10 is a light emitting element, a surface (second surface) opposite to the first surface of the substrate 1 is a light emitting surface. In this case, the substrate 1 is formed of a material that is transparent to the light emitted from the organic EL element 10. Examples of such materials include glass and resin materials. However, the first surface side of the substrate 1 may be a light emitting surface. In this case, the substrate 1 may not have translucency with respect to the light emitted from the organic EL element 10.

有機EL素子10は、下部電極11、有機層12、及び上部電極13を有している。有機層12は、下部電極11と上部電極13の間に位置しており、有機機能層、例えば発光層を有している。本図に示す例において、下部電極11は基板1の上に形成されている。ただし、基板1と下部電極11の間に他の層(例えば絶縁層)が設けられていても良い。下部電極11及び上部電極13は、いずれも互いに異なる配線3に接続している。いずれの配線3も、基板1の第1面に形成されている。本図に示す例において、下部電極11に接続する配線3は、下部電極11の少なくとも一部を構成する導電層と一体になっている。ただし、この配線3も、下部電極11とは異なる導電層で形成されていても良い。   The organic EL element 10 includes a lower electrode 11, an organic layer 12, and an upper electrode 13. The organic layer 12 is located between the lower electrode 11 and the upper electrode 13, and has an organic functional layer, for example, a light emitting layer. In the example shown in this figure, the lower electrode 11 is formed on the substrate 1. However, another layer (for example, an insulating layer) may be provided between the substrate 1 and the lower electrode 11. The lower electrode 11 and the upper electrode 13 are both connected to different wirings 3. All the wirings 3 are formed on the first surface of the substrate 1. In the example shown in this figure, the wiring 3 connected to the lower electrode 11 is integrated with a conductive layer constituting at least a part of the lower electrode 11. However, the wiring 3 may also be formed of a conductive layer different from the lower electrode 11.

接続部材5の一端は配線3に接続されており、接続部材5の他端は、配線4に接続されている。配線4は、基板2の上に形成されている。基板2は、例えばFPC(Flexible Printed Circuits)又はPCB(Printed Circuit Board)などの配線基板又は回路基板である。   One end of the connection member 5 is connected to the wiring 3, and the other end of the connection member 5 is connected to the wiring 4. The wiring 4 is formed on the substrate 2. The substrate 2 is a wiring substrate or a circuit substrate such as an FPC (Flexible Printed Circuits) or a PCB (Printed Circuit Board).

なお、本図に示す例では、接続部材5の他端は基板2に接続しているが、基板1の上に形成された他の導電部に接続していても良い。   In the example shown in the figure, the other end of the connection member 5 is connected to the substrate 2, but may be connected to another conductive portion formed on the substrate 1.

図2は、配線3と接続部材5の接続構造、及び配線4と接続部材5の接続構造の詳細例を示す図である。   FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating a detailed example of a connection structure between the wiring 3 and the connection member 5 and a connection structure between the wiring 4 and the connection member 5.

配線3は、導電部3Aと第1被覆部3Bを備えている。導電部3A及び第1被覆部3Bは、いずれも導電性の材料によって形成されている。ただし、第1被覆部3Bは導電部3Aの保護膜として機能するようにその材料が選択されているため、第1被覆部3Bのシート抵抗は、導電部3Aのシート抵抗よりも高くなっている。   The wiring 3 includes a conductive portion 3A and a first covering portion 3B. The conductive part 3A and the first covering part 3B are both made of a conductive material. However, since the material of the first covering portion 3B is selected so as to function as a protective film for the conductive portion 3A, the sheet resistance of the first covering portion 3B is higher than the sheet resistance of the conductive portion 3A. .

導電部3Aは、金属(第1金属)、例えば、アルミニウム(Al)、ニッケル(Ni)、銅(Cu)、クロム(Cr)、ロジウム(Rh)、鉄(Fe)、又は白金(Pt)などの単体又はこれらの金属を主成分として含む合金、これら金属と公知の無機物を含む合金によって構成されている。これらの金属又は合金の硬度(ビッカース硬さ)は、金の硬度に対して大きい。例えば、アルミニウム(Al)のビッカース硬さは30〜100HV程度である。   The conductive portion 3A is a metal (first metal), for example, aluminum (Al), nickel (Ni), copper (Cu), chromium (Cr), rhodium (Rh), iron (Fe), platinum (Pt), etc. Or an alloy containing these metals as a main component, or an alloy containing these metals and a known inorganic substance. The hardness (Vickers hardness) of these metals or alloys is larger than the hardness of gold. For example, the Vickers hardness of aluminum (Al) is about 30 to 100 HV.

第1被覆部3Bは、例えば、酸化金属などの酸化物で構成される酸化膜、金属の酸化を抑止できるパラジウム(Pd)などの酸化防止膜、フォトリソグラフィで用いるエッチャントにより金属が腐食することを抑止する腐食防止膜等である。第1被覆部3Bは、導電部3Aの少なくとも一部を覆っていればよい。   For example, the first covering portion 3B is formed by preventing the metal from being corroded by an oxide film made of an oxide such as a metal oxide, an anti-oxidation film such as palladium (Pd) capable of suppressing metal oxidation, and an etchant used in photolithography. It is a corrosion prevention film to suppress. The 1st coating | coated part 3B should just cover at least one part of 3 A of electroconductive parts.

具体的には、第1被覆部3Bは、金属(第3金属)を有している。この金属は、塊の状態において、導電部3Aに含まれる金属よりも堅い。第1被覆部3Bは、モリブデン(Mo)、ニッケル(Ni)、ニオブ(Nb)、又はパラジウム(Pd)などの単体又は合金によって構成することができる。ここで、これら複数の金属のうちの一つを用いて第1被覆部3Bを形成すると、第1被覆部3Bの硬度は少なくとも金の硬度に対して大きくなる。また、第1被覆部3Bは、酸化金属、例えば酸化アルミニウムによって構成することができる。酸化アルミニウムのビッカース硬さは1600HV程度であり、金の硬度に対して大きい。   Specifically, the 1st coating | coated part 3B has a metal (3rd metal). This metal is harder than the metal contained in the conductive portion 3A in a lump state. The 1st coating | coated part 3B can be comprised with single-piece | units or alloys, such as molybdenum (Mo), nickel (Ni), niobium (Nb), or palladium (Pd). Here, if the 1st coating | coated part 3B is formed using one of these several metals, the hardness of the 1st coating | coated part 3B will become large at least with respect to the hardness of gold | metal | money. Moreover, the 1st coating | coated part 3B can be comprised with a metal oxide, for example, aluminum oxide. The Vickers hardness of aluminum oxide is about 1600 HV, which is large with respect to the hardness of gold.

第1被覆部3Bが酸化金属によって形成されている場合、第1被覆部3Bは、導電部3Aを構成する金属(例えばAl)の酸化物(例えば酸化Al)であっても良い。この場合、第1被覆部3Bは、導電部3Aの表面を酸化することにより形成される。この酸化プロセスは、例えば、有機EL装置100の製造プロセスにおけるウェット処理工程、蒸着工程、又はエッチング工程の少なくとも一つと兼ねることができる。   When the first covering portion 3B is formed of metal oxide, the first covering portion 3B may be an oxide (for example, Al oxide) of a metal (for example, Al) constituting the conductive portion 3A. In this case, the first covering portion 3B is formed by oxidizing the surface of the conductive portion 3A. This oxidation process can also serve as at least one of a wet treatment process, a vapor deposition process, or an etching process in the manufacturing process of the organic EL device 100, for example.

配線3のうち接続部材5に接続する部分は、電極又は接続端子になっていてもよい。同様に、配線4のうち接続部材5に接続する部分は、電極又は接続端子になっていてもよい。   A portion of the wiring 3 that is connected to the connection member 5 may be an electrode or a connection terminal. Similarly, a portion of the wiring 4 that is connected to the connection member 5 may be an electrode or a connection terminal.

配線4は導電部4Aを備えている。本図に示す例では、導電部4Aの上に被覆部は形成されていない。ただし、導電部4Aの上に、第1被覆部3Bと同様の被覆部が形成されていても良い。   The wiring 4 includes a conductive portion 4A. In the example shown in this figure, the covering portion is not formed on the conductive portion 4A. However, a covering portion similar to the first covering portion 3B may be formed on the conductive portion 4A.

接続部材5は、金(ビッカース硬さ22HV)より硬い材料で構成されているのが好ましい。接続部材5は、例えば、ボンディングワイヤのような線状又は帯状の配線である。接続部材5の幅は、配線3又は配線4の幅に対して小さいが、同程度であっても良い。接続部材5の芯部5Aを構成する材料は、銀(ビッカース硬さ24HV)、銅(ビッカース硬さ70HV程度)、白金(ビッカース硬さ41HV)、クロム(ビッカース硬さ750HV以上)などの金属である。このような硬い導電性材料を接続部材5に用いることで、接続部材5を構成する材料の硬度を金の硬度より大きくすることができる。この際、接続部材5を構成する材料は単一材料成分である必要はなく、複数の材料成分を有する合金であってもよい。   The connecting member 5 is preferably made of a material harder than gold (Vickers hardness 22HV). The connection member 5 is, for example, a linear or strip-like wiring such as a bonding wire. The width of the connecting member 5 is smaller than the width of the wiring 3 or the wiring 4, but may be the same. The material constituting the core portion 5A of the connection member 5 is a metal such as silver (Vickers hardness 24HV), copper (Vickers hardness 70HV), platinum (Vickers hardness 41HV), chromium (Vickers hardness 750HV or more). is there. By using such a hard conductive material for the connection member 5, the hardness of the material constituting the connection member 5 can be made larger than the hardness of gold. At this time, the material constituting the connection member 5 does not have to be a single material component, and may be an alloy having a plurality of material components.

接続部材5は、芯部5Aと芯部5Aの周囲を覆う第2被覆部5Bを有している。芯部5A及び第2被覆部5Bは、いずれも導電性の材料により形成されている。接続部材5を芯部5Aと第2被覆部5Bの2重構造にすることで、接続部材5の一部(端部など)又は全体の硬さを高めることができる。第2被覆部5Bの硬度を芯部5Aの硬度に対して略同じ又は大きくすることで、実質的に接続部材5の硬さを大きくすることができる。一例としては、芯部5Aの材料を純度99.9質量%の銅(Cu)とし、第2被覆部5Bの材料を純度99.9質量%のパラジウム(Pd)又は白金(Pt)として、第2被覆部5Bをスパッタリングや蒸着やメッキなどで薄膜形成することで、第2被覆部5Bの硬度を芯部5Aの硬度に対して大きくすることができる。   The connecting member 5 has a core portion 5A and a second covering portion 5B that covers the periphery of the core portion 5A. Each of the core portion 5A and the second covering portion 5B is formed of a conductive material. By making the connecting member 5 have a double structure of the core portion 5A and the second covering portion 5B, it is possible to increase a part of the connecting member 5 (such as an end portion) or the entire hardness. By making the hardness of the second covering portion 5B substantially the same or larger than the hardness of the core portion 5A, the hardness of the connecting member 5 can be substantially increased. As an example, the material of the core 5A is made of copper (Cu) with a purity of 99.9% by mass, and the material of the second covering part 5B is made of palladium (Pd) or platinum (Pt) with a purity of 99.9% by mass. The hardness of the second covering portion 5B can be increased with respect to the hardness of the core portion 5A by forming a thin film on the two covering portions 5B by sputtering, vapor deposition, plating, or the like.

図示の例では、接続部材5は芯部5Aと第2被覆部5Bとで構成されているが、芯部5Aと芯部5Aを覆う筒状部であっても構わない。ここでいう筒状部とは、接続部材5の端部が筒状部で覆われていないものを指し、筒状部の端部は開口されている。そして、芯部5Aの端部は筒状部から露出している。   In the illustrated example, the connecting member 5 includes the core portion 5A and the second covering portion 5B. However, the connecting member 5 may be a cylindrical portion that covers the core portion 5A and the core portion 5A. The cylindrical part here refers to the end of the connecting member 5 that is not covered with the cylindrical part, and the end of the cylindrical part is open. And the edge part of 5 A of core parts is exposed from the cylindrical part.

そして、接続部材5は、第1被覆部3Bを通過して導電部3Aに接続している。詳細には、第1被覆部3Bは、配線3が接続部材5と接続している部分の少なくとも一部に開口を有している。同様に、第2被覆部5Bは、配線3と接続部材5が接続している部分の少なくとも一部に開口を有している。そして、これらの開口を介して、導電部3Aと芯部5Aは直接接続し、接合部を形成している。そしてこの接合部の少なくとも一部には、金属間化合物5Cが形成されている。金属間化合物5Cは、導電部3Aに含まれる金属(第1金属)と芯部5Aに含まれる金属(第2金属)の金属間化合物(又は合金)である。例えば芯部5AがCuを主成分としており、導電部3AがAlを主成分としている場合、金属間化合物5CはCuとAlの合金、例えばAlCuである。なお、第1被覆部3Bが金属などの導電材料によって形成されている場合、導電部3Aと芯部5Aの電気的接続は、第1被覆部3Bを介しても行われる。The connecting member 5 passes through the first covering portion 3B and is connected to the conductive portion 3A. Specifically, the first covering portion 3 </ b> B has an opening in at least a part of the portion where the wiring 3 is connected to the connecting member 5. Similarly, the 2nd coating | coated part 5B has an opening in at least one part of the part which the wiring 3 and the connection member 5 connect. The conductive portion 3A and the core portion 5A are directly connected through these openings to form a joint portion. And the intermetallic compound 5C is formed in at least one part of this junction part. The intermetallic compound 5C is an intermetallic compound (or alloy) of a metal (first metal) included in the conductive portion 3A and a metal (second metal) included in the core portion 5A. For example, when the core portion 5A has Cu as a main component and the conductive portion 3A has Al as a main component, the intermetallic compound 5C is an alloy of Cu and Al, for example, Al 2 Cu. In addition, when the 1st coating | coated part 3B is formed with electrically conductive materials, such as a metal, the electrical connection of 3 A of conductive parts and the core part 5A is also performed via the 1st coating | coated part 3B.

接続部材5が第1被覆部3Bを通過して導電部3Aと接続する構造を得るためには、第1被覆部3Bの厚さや硬さが特定の範囲内にあるのが好ましい。第1被覆部3Bの厚さは、第2被覆部5Bの厚さに対して略同じ又は小さくしても構わない。第1被覆部3Bの厚さを比較的小さくすることで、第1被覆部3Bを通過して接続部材5を導電部3Aに接続し易くできる。一方、配線3をフォトリソグラフィで形成する場合には、第1被覆部3Bは導電部3Aの酸化や腐食等を抑止すべく所望の厚さを有する必要がある。そのため、例えば、第1被覆部3Bの厚さは、0.01〜1μm程度に設定することができ、第2被覆部5Bの厚さは0.02〜8μm程度に設定することができる。   In order to obtain a structure in which the connecting member 5 passes through the first covering portion 3B and is connected to the conductive portion 3A, it is preferable that the thickness and hardness of the first covering portion 3B are within a specific range. The thickness of the first covering portion 3B may be substantially the same as or smaller than the thickness of the second covering portion 5B. By making the thickness of the first covering portion 3B relatively small, it is possible to easily connect the connecting member 5 to the conductive portion 3A through the first covering portion 3B. On the other hand, when the wiring 3 is formed by photolithography, the first covering portion 3B needs to have a desired thickness in order to suppress oxidation or corrosion of the conductive portion 3A. Therefore, for example, the thickness of the first covering portion 3B can be set to about 0.01 to 1 μm, and the thickness of the second covering portion 5B can be set to about 0.02 to 8 μm.

第1被覆部3Bの硬さは、芯部5Aの硬さ又は第2被覆部5Bの硬さに対して、小さいことが好ましい。接続部材5の一部又は全体の硬度は、金の硬度より大きく、第1被覆部3Bの硬度より大きい。芯部5A又は第2被覆部5Bの硬さに対して第1被覆部3Bの硬さを小さくすることで、超音波が伝搬された接続部材5が第1被覆部3Bを突き破ること(貫通)、研削すること、第1被覆部3Bを破くこと、及び、破かれた第1被覆部3Bの一部を接続部材5から外側に向けて移動させることが容易になり、その結果、接続部材5が第1被覆部3Bを通過して導電部3Aに到達するのが容易になる。   The hardness of the first covering portion 3B is preferably smaller than the hardness of the core portion 5A or the hardness of the second covering portion 5B. The hardness of a part or the whole of the connecting member 5 is larger than that of gold and larger than that of the first covering portion 3B. By reducing the hardness of the first covering portion 3B relative to the hardness of the core portion 5A or the second covering portion 5B, the connection member 5 to which the ultrasonic wave has propagated breaks through the first covering portion 3B (penetration). , Grinding, breaking the first covering portion 3B, and moving a part of the broken first covering portion 3B outward from the connecting member 5, and as a result, the connecting member 5 Can easily reach the conductive portion 3A through the first covering portion 3B.

また、配線3がフォトリソグラフィ工程などの製造工程を経て加熱されている場合には、この加熱によって配線3の表面(例えば第1被覆部3B)が硬質化してしまう場合がある。このような場合、接続部材5として、金などの比較的柔らかい材料を用いると、配線3と接続部材5の電気的な接続を確実に行うことができない場合がある。これに対して、接続部材5に第2被覆部5Bをもたせると、接続部材5を、第1被覆部3Bを通過させて導電部3Aに到達させることが可能になる。   When the wiring 3 is heated through a manufacturing process such as a photolithography process, the surface of the wiring 3 (for example, the first covering portion 3B) may be hardened by this heating. In such a case, if a relatively soft material such as gold is used as the connection member 5, the electrical connection between the wiring 3 and the connection member 5 may not be reliably performed. In contrast, when the connecting member 5 has the second covering portion 5B, the connecting member 5 can reach the conductive portion 3A through the first covering portion 3B.

なお、配線3と接続部材5の接続部において、接続部材5に対面する第1被覆部3Bの内周部3tを、接続部材5から基板1に向かう方向に傾斜させることができる。この第1被覆部3Bの内周部3tは、第1被覆部3Bに対して接続部材5による突き破り(貫通)、切削、第1被覆部3Bを破くこと、又は破かれた第1被覆部3Bの一部を接続部材5から外側に向けて移動させることで形成することができるが、接続部材5との接続に先立って予め第1被覆部3Bに開口部を形成しておくこともできる。   In the connection portion between the wiring 3 and the connection member 5, the inner peripheral portion 3 t of the first covering portion 3 </ b> B facing the connection member 5 can be inclined in the direction from the connection member 5 toward the substrate 1. The inner peripheral portion 3t of the first covering portion 3B is pierced (penetrated) by the connecting member 5 with respect to the first covering portion 3B, cut, torn the first covering portion 3B, or torn first covering portion 3B. However, it is also possible to form an opening in the first covering portion 3B in advance prior to connection with the connection member 5.

以上、本実施形態によれば、接続部材5と配線3の接続部の少なくとも一部において、接続部材5の芯部5Aと配線3の導電部3Aは、第2被覆部5B及び第1被覆部3Bのいずれも介さずに接続している。従って、接続部材5と配線3の間の接続抵抗を低くすることができる。   As described above, according to the present embodiment, in at least a part of the connection portion between the connection member 5 and the wiring 3, the core portion 5 </ b> A of the connection member 5 and the conductive portion 3 </ b> A of the wiring 3 are the second covering portion 5 </ b> B and the first covering portion. It connects without interposing all of 3B. Therefore, the connection resistance between the connection member 5 and the wiring 3 can be reduced.

また、芯部5Aと導電部3Aの接続部には、金属間化合物5Cが形成されている。このため、芯部5Aと導電部3Aの接合の機械的強度が向上するとともに、これらの間の接続抵抗が小さくなる。   Further, an intermetallic compound 5C is formed at the connecting portion between the core portion 5A and the conductive portion 3A. For this reason, the mechanical strength of the joining of the core portion 5A and the conductive portion 3A is improved, and the connection resistance between them is reduced.

A driving IC 21 (control unit) for driving the organic EL element 10 is mounted on the circuit board 20A. The driving IC 21 is connected to the wiring 22 of the circuit board 20 </ b> A via the bonding wire 24. The circuit board 20A is, for example, a PCB. The wiring 22 is connected to the lead-out wiring 18 via the bonding wire 23. Here, the lead-out wiring 18 corresponds to the wiring 3 in the embodiment, and the wiring 22 corresponds to the wiring 4 in the embodiment. And the bonding wire 23 respond | corresponds to the connection member 5 in embodiment. Although not shown, the bonding wires 23 and 24 are sealed with a mold resin.

図4は、図3のうち有機EL装置100の端部の拡大図である。本実施例において、有機EL装置100は、基板1と、基板1の第1面上に直接又は他の層を介して形成された下部電極11と、下部電極11上に積層された有機層12と、有機層12上に形成された上部電極13を備えている。そして、下部電極11、有機層12、及び上部電極13によって有機EL素子10の少なくとも一部が構成されている。有機EL素子10は、下部電極11上の絶縁膜14で区画されることで、ドットマトリクス状又はストライプ状になっている。図示の例では、下部電極11は図中左右方向にストライプ状に形成されている。そして、絶縁膜14上には、下部電極11と交差する方向(図3においては紙面に垂直な方向)に、ストライプ状の隔壁15が形成されている。隔壁15によって、有機EL素子10の有機層12は、隔壁15と同じ方向にストライプ状に区画されている。そして上部電極13は、有機層12の上に、下部電極11と交差する方向(すなわち有機層12と同じ方向)にストライプ状に形成されている。上部電極13は、例えばAlによって形成されている。なお、下部電極11及び上部電極13は、互いに異なる引出配線18に接続している。なお、引出配線18は、導電部3Aの下に、下部電極11と同様の材料からなる導電層(例えば透明導電層)が形成されていても良い。また、下部電極11及び上部電極13の一方は、所謂ベタ電極であっても良い。   FIG. 4 is an enlarged view of an end portion of the organic EL device 100 in FIG. In the present embodiment, the organic EL device 100 includes a substrate 1, a lower electrode 11 formed on the first surface of the substrate 1 directly or via another layer, and an organic layer 12 stacked on the lower electrode 11. And an upper electrode 13 formed on the organic layer 12. The lower electrode 11, the organic layer 12, and the upper electrode 13 constitute at least a part of the organic EL element 10. The organic EL element 10 is partitioned by an insulating film 14 on the lower electrode 11 to form a dot matrix or a stripe. In the illustrated example, the lower electrode 11 is formed in a stripe shape in the left-right direction in the drawing. On the insulating film 14, stripe-shaped partition walls 15 are formed in a direction intersecting with the lower electrode 11 (a direction perpendicular to the paper surface in FIG. 3). By the partition wall 15, the organic layer 12 of the organic EL element 10 is partitioned in a stripe shape in the same direction as the partition wall 15. The upper electrode 13 is formed in stripes on the organic layer 12 in a direction intersecting with the lower electrode 11 (that is, in the same direction as the organic layer 12). The upper electrode 13 is made of, for example, Al. The lower electrode 11 and the upper electrode 13 are connected to different lead wires 18. In the lead-out wiring 18, a conductive layer (for example, a transparent conductive layer) made of the same material as that of the lower electrode 11 may be formed under the conductive portion 3A. One of the lower electrode 11 and the upper electrode 13 may be a so-called solid electrode.

図5は、図4のうち引出配線18とボンディングワイヤ23の接続部を説明するための図である。ボンディングワイヤ23の芯部5Aは、引出配線18の第1被覆部3Bを突き破っており、引出配線18の導電部3Aに接続している。そして芯部5Aと導電部3Aが直接接続している部分には、金属間化合物5Cが形成されている。なお、芯部5Aと導電部3Aの接続部の一部には、第1被覆部3Bが残る場合もある。この場合、芯部5Aの一部は、第1被覆部3Bを介して導電部3Aと電気的に接続する。なお、本図に示す例では、芯部5Aと導電部3Aの接続部の中央部に第1被覆部3Bが位置しており、この第1被覆部3Bの周囲に金属間化合物5Cが位置している。   FIG. 5 is a view for explaining a connection portion between the lead wiring 18 and the bonding wire 23 in FIG. 4. The core portion 5 </ b> A of the bonding wire 23 penetrates the first covering portion 3 </ b> B of the lead wire 18 and is connected to the conductive portion 3 </ b> A of the lead wire 18. An intermetallic compound 5C is formed at a portion where the core portion 5A and the conductive portion 3A are directly connected. In addition, the 1st coating | coated part 3B may remain in a part of connection part of 5 A of core parts, and the electroconductive part 3A. In this case, a part of the core part 5A is electrically connected to the conductive part 3A via the first covering part 3B. In the example shown in this figure, the first covering portion 3B is located at the center of the connecting portion between the core portion 5A and the conductive portion 3A, and the intermetallic compound 5C is located around the first covering portion 3B. ing.

ここで、ボンディングワイヤ23の芯部5Aが銅であり、引出配線18の導電部3AがAlである場合、金属間化合物5Cは、AlとCuの金属間化合物(例えばAlCu)である。このため、物理的にもボンディングワイヤ23と引出配線18の接続は強固になり、またボンディングワイヤ23と引出配線18の接続抵抗も低く(例えば第1被覆部3BがMoの場合は0.5Ω)なる。Here, when the core part 5A of the bonding wire 23 is copper and the conductive part 3A of the lead-out wiring 18 is Al, the intermetallic compound 5C is an intermetallic compound of Al and Cu (for example, Al 2 Cu). For this reason, the connection between the bonding wire 23 and the lead wiring 18 is physically strong, and the connection resistance between the bonding wire 23 and the lead wiring 18 is low (for example, 0.5Ω when the first covering portion 3B is Mo). Become.

次に、有機EL装置100の製造方法について説明する。まず、有機EL素子10及び引出配線18が形成された基板1を準備する。有機EL素子10及び引出配線18は、例えば以下のようにして形成されている。なお、以下に示す方法において、引出配線18は、下部電極11となる透明導電膜と、Alなどの金属の積層膜となっている。   Next, a method for manufacturing the organic EL device 100 will be described. First, the substrate 1 on which the organic EL element 10 and the lead wiring 18 are formed is prepared. The organic EL element 10 and the lead wiring 18 are formed as follows, for example. In the method described below, the lead-out wiring 18 is a laminated film of a transparent conductive film that becomes the lower electrode 11 and a metal such as Al.

まず、基板1の上に、下部電極11となる透明導電膜(例えばITO,IZO,IGZOなどの材料で形成される膜)を成膜する。その後、この透明導電膜をフォトリソグラフィによって選択的に除去し、下部電極11を形成する。このとき、引出配線18の導電部3Aとなる透明電極膜も形成される。また、下部電極11に接続する引出配線18の導電部3Aは、下部電極11と一体に形成され、上部電極13に接続する引出配線18の導電部3Aは、下部電極11とは分離して形成される。いずれの引出配線18の導電部3Aも、発光領域102の外側に形成される。   First, a transparent conductive film (for example, a film formed of a material such as ITO, IZO, or IGZO) to be the lower electrode 11 is formed on the substrate 1. Thereafter, the transparent conductive film is selectively removed by photolithography to form the lower electrode 11. At this time, a transparent electrode film to be the conductive portion 3A of the lead wiring 18 is also formed. The conductive portion 3A of the lead wire 18 connected to the lower electrode 11 is formed integrally with the lower electrode 11, and the conductive portion 3A of the lead wire 18 connected to the upper electrode 13 is formed separately from the lower electrode 11. Is done. The conductive portion 3 </ b> A of any lead wiring 18 is formed outside the light emitting region 102.

ただし、導電部3Aが透明電極と金属層との積層構造となる場合がある。この場合、上部電極13に接続する引出配線18の導電部3Aは、透明電極層を有していなくても良い。また、下部電極11に接続する引出配線18の導電部3Aは、金属層を有していなくても良い。   However, the conductive part 3A may have a laminated structure of a transparent electrode and a metal layer. In this case, the conductive portion 3A of the lead wiring 18 connected to the upper electrode 13 does not have to have a transparent electrode layer. Further, the conductive portion 3A of the lead wiring 18 connected to the lower electrode 11 may not have a metal layer.

その後、基板1の上に、引出配線18の導電部3Aの一部又は全体を覆う第1の保護部を成膜する。   Thereafter, a first protection part is formed on the substrate 1 so as to cover a part or the whole of the conductive part 3A of the lead wiring 18.

次いで、第1の保護部の上に、導電部3Aとなる第1の金属膜(例えばアルミニウム膜)、及び第1被覆部3Bとなる第2の金属膜をこの順に成膜し、第1の保護部とフォトリソグラフィによってこれら金属膜をパターニングする。これにより、引出配線18の上層が形成される。なお第1被覆部3Bは、複数の金属層を積層した構造を有していても良い。   Next, a first metal film (for example, an aluminum film) to be the conductive portion 3A and a second metal film to be the first covering portion 3B are formed in this order on the first protective portion, and the first These metal films are patterned by a protective part and photolithography. Thereby, the upper layer of the lead wiring 18 is formed. The first covering portion 3B may have a structure in which a plurality of metal layers are stacked.

次いで、隔壁15となる絶縁層を形成し、この絶縁層をエッチング(例えばドライエッチング又はウェットエッチング)など利用し、選択的に除去する。これにより、隔壁15が形成される。隔壁15が感光性の絶縁膜で形成される場合、露光及び現像時の条件を調節することにより、隔壁15の断面形状を逆台形にすることができる。   Next, an insulating layer to be the partition wall 15 is formed, and this insulating layer is selectively removed by using etching (for example, dry etching or wet etching). Thereby, the partition 15 is formed. When the partition wall 15 is formed of a photosensitive insulating film, the cross-sectional shape of the partition wall 15 can be changed to an inverted trapezoid by adjusting the conditions during exposure and development.

次いで、有機層12を、蒸着法又は塗布法を用いて形成する。有機層12は、例えば、正孔輸送層、発光層、及び電子輸送層を積層したものである。なお、以下の説明において、一部の有機層とは、例えば、正孔輸送層、発光層、電子輸送層、後述する正孔注入層、又は電子注入層を指す。これらの層のうち少なくとも正孔注入層は、例えばスプレー塗布、ディスペンサー塗布、インクジェット、又は印刷などの塗布法を用いて形成される。塗布法で用いられる塗布材料としては、高分子材料、高分子材料中に低分子材料を含んだものなどが適している。塗布材料としては、例えば、ポリアルキルチオフェン誘導体、ポリアニリン誘導体、トリフェニルアミン、無機化合物のゾルゲル膜、ルイス酸を含む有機化合物膜、導電性高分子などを利用することができる。なお、有機層140のうち残りの層(例えば電子輸送層)は、蒸着法により形成される。ただしこれらの層も、上記した塗布法のいずれかを用いて形成されても良い。   Next, the organic layer 12 is formed using a vapor deposition method or a coating method. The organic layer 12 is formed by stacking, for example, a hole transport layer, a light emitting layer, and an electron transport layer. In the following description, a part of the organic layer refers to, for example, a hole transport layer, a light emitting layer, an electron transport layer, a hole injection layer described later, or an electron injection layer. Among these layers, at least the hole injection layer is formed using a coating method such as spray coating, dispenser coating, inkjet, or printing. As a coating material used in the coating method, a polymer material, a polymer material containing a low-molecular material, or the like is suitable. As the coating material, for example, a polyalkylthiophene derivative, a polyaniline derivative, triphenylamine, a sol-gel film of an inorganic compound, an organic compound film containing a Lewis acid, a conductive polymer, or the like can be used. The remaining layers (for example, electron transport layers) of the organic layer 140 are formed by a vapor deposition method. However, these layers may also be formed using any of the above-described coating methods.

次いで、上部電極13を、例えば蒸着法、スパッタリング法、又は塗布法を用いて形成する。   Next, the upper electrode 13 is formed using, for example, a vapor deposition method, a sputtering method, or a coating method.

上記した方法によって形成される場合、下部電極11に接続する引出配線18は、例えば、導電部3AであるITO(約1.55μm)の上に、第1被覆部3BとしてのNiとMoの合金(約0.5μm)を形成した構造を有している。   When formed by the above-described method, the lead-out wiring 18 connected to the lower electrode 11 is made of, for example, an alloy of Ni and Mo as the first covering portion 3B on the conductive portion 3A ITO (about 1.55 μm). (About 0.5 μm).

また、上部電極13に接続する引出配線18は、例えば、導電部3AとしてのAl膜(約2.3μm)の上に、第1被覆部3BとしてのMoとNbの合金膜及びNiとMoの合金膜の積層膜を形成した構造を有している。また、この引出配線18は、導電部3Aとして、透明導電膜:ITO(約1.55μm)膜、MoとNbの合金膜(約0.5μm)、及びAlとNbの合金(約3.0μm)膜の積層膜を形成し、この上に、第1被覆部3BとしてNiとNbの合金膜を積層したものとすることもできる。   The lead wiring 18 connected to the upper electrode 13 is formed of, for example, an alloy film of Mo and Nb as the first covering portion 3B and Ni and Mo on the Al film (about 2.3 μm) as the conductive portion 3A. It has a structure in which a laminated film of alloy films is formed. In addition, the lead-out wiring 18 has, as the conductive portion 3A, a transparent conductive film: ITO (about 1.55 μm) film, an alloy film of Mo and Nb (about 0.5 μm), and an alloy of Al and Nb (about 3.0 μm). ) A laminated film of films may be formed, and an alloy film of Ni and Nb may be laminated thereon as the first covering portion 3B.

次いで、基板1の上に、駆動用IC21が搭載された回路基板20Aを固定し、その後、ボンディングワイヤ23を用いて引出配線18と配線22とを接続する。   Next, the circuit board 20 </ b> A on which the driving IC 21 is mounted is fixed on the substrate 1, and then the lead-out wiring 18 and the wiring 22 are connected using the bonding wires 23.

図6は、有機EL装置100を基板1の光射出面側から見た平面図である。本実施例において、回路基板20Aと引出配線18とを接続する接続部材は、ボンディングワイヤ23である。従って、有機EL装置100のうち引出配線18を配線22に接続するために必要な領域(額縁領域104)を狭くして、発光領域102を広くすることができる。その結果、有機EL装置100を収容する筐体を小さくできるので、電子機器の小型化・薄型化が可能になる。   FIG. 6 is a plan view of the organic EL device 100 as viewed from the light emitting surface side of the substrate 1. In the present embodiment, the connecting member that connects the circuit board 20 </ b> A and the lead wiring 18 is the bonding wire 23. Therefore, a region (frame region 104) necessary for connecting the lead wiring 18 to the wiring 22 in the organic EL device 100 can be narrowed, and the light emitting region 102 can be widened. As a result, the housing for housing the organic EL device 100 can be made small, and the electronic device can be made smaller and thinner.

図7は、比較例に係る有機EL装置100の構成を示す断面図であり、実施例における図4に対応している。この比較例において、駆動用IC21はフレキシブル基板20の上に搭載されている。そしてフレキシブル基板20の一端は、導電性接着剤(ACF)19を介して引出配線18に接続されている。このような構造では、フレキシブル基板20を180°曲げているため、引出配線18とフレキシブル基板20を接続するための領域を広くする必要がある。このため、図4に示した例と比較して、額縁領域104を広くして発光領域102を狭くする必要が出てくる。例えば図4に示した例では、額縁領域104の幅は3.5〜4mmであるのに対し、図7に示す例では、額縁領域104の幅は8.5〜10mmと、2倍以上になってしまう。   FIG. 7 is a cross-sectional view illustrating a configuration of the organic EL device 100 according to the comparative example, and corresponds to FIG. 4 in the example. In this comparative example, the driving IC 21 is mounted on the flexible substrate 20. One end of the flexible substrate 20 is connected to the lead wiring 18 via a conductive adhesive (ACF) 19. In such a structure, since the flexible substrate 20 is bent by 180 °, it is necessary to widen an area for connecting the lead wiring 18 and the flexible substrate 20. For this reason, it is necessary to make the frame region 104 wider and the light emitting region 102 narrower than in the example shown in FIG. For example, in the example shown in FIG. 4, the width of the frame region 104 is 3.5 to 4 mm, whereas in the example shown in FIG. 7, the width of the frame region 104 is 8.5 to 10 mm, which is more than doubled. turn into.

また、フレキシブル基板20を180°曲げる必要があるため、フレキシブル基板20を曲げるために必要な幅(図中左右方向)及び厚さ(図中上下方向)をある程度確保する必要がある。このため、有機EL装置100を収容するために必要なスペースが大きなってしまう。なお、有機EL装置100の厚さは、基板1の厚さ方向における、駆動用IC21の幅、フレキシブル基板20の曲げ幅、基板1の厚さの合計値である。   Moreover, since it is necessary to bend the flexible substrate 20 by 180 °, it is necessary to secure a certain width (left and right direction in the drawing) and thickness (up and down direction in the drawing) necessary for bending the flexible substrate 20. For this reason, a space required for accommodating the organic EL device 100 is increased. The thickness of the organic EL device 100 is the total value of the width of the driving IC 21, the bending width of the flexible substrate 20, and the thickness of the substrate 1 in the thickness direction of the substrate 1.

図8は、引出配線18とフレキシブル基板20の接続部を説明するための図である。本図に示すように導電性接着剤19は引出配線18の第1被覆部3Bを突き破っていない。このため、導電性接着剤19の導電性粒子は、第1被覆部3Bを介して導電部3Aに接続する。そして、導電性接着剤19の導電性粒子が樹脂粒子にNiメッキを施したものであり、第1被覆部3BがMoであり、導電部3AがAlの場合、導電部3Aと導電性接着剤19の接続抵抗は、1.5オームとなり、上記した実施例に対して大きくなる。   FIG. 8 is a view for explaining a connecting portion between the lead-out wiring 18 and the flexible substrate 20. As shown in the figure, the conductive adhesive 19 does not penetrate the first covering portion 3B of the lead wiring 18. For this reason, the conductive particles of the conductive adhesive 19 are connected to the conductive portion 3A via the first covering portion 3B. When the conductive particles of the conductive adhesive 19 are obtained by applying Ni plating to resin particles, the first covering portion 3B is Mo, and the conductive portion 3A is Al, the conductive portion 3A and the conductive adhesive The connection resistance of 19 is 1.5 ohms, which is larger than the above-described embodiment.

また、本実施例では、封止部材16の一面に駆動用IC21を配置できるので、有機EL装置100の平面形状は、駆動IC21の形状や存在による制約を受けない。このため、有機EL装置100の平面形状の自由度が向上する。また、図7,8に示した例では、フレキシブル基板20に接続するためのコネクターの形状によって、有機EL装置100の平面形状に制約が生じるが、本実施例ではこのような制約が生じない。従って、有機EL装置100の平面形状を、円形、ハート形、星形などといった形状にすることができる。   In the present embodiment, the driving IC 21 can be disposed on one surface of the sealing member 16, so that the planar shape of the organic EL device 100 is not restricted by the shape or presence of the driving IC 21. For this reason, the freedom degree of the planar shape of the organic EL device 100 is improved. In the example shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the shape of the connector for connecting to the flexible substrate 20 is limited in the planar shape of the organic EL device 100. However, in this embodiment, such a limitation does not occur. Therefore, the planar shape of the organic EL device 100 can be a circular shape, a heart shape, a star shape, or the like.

なお、配線22とボンディングワイヤ23の接続部についても、引出配線18とボンディングワイヤ23の接続部と同様の構造となっていても良い。   Note that the connecting portion between the wiring 22 and the bonding wire 23 may have the same structure as the connecting portion between the lead-out wiring 18 and the bonding wire 23.

(実施例2)
図9は、実施例2に係る液晶装置200の構成を示す断面図である。液晶装置200は、基板1、基板32、封止材33を備えており、基板1と基板32との間に液晶層30を挟持して、その周囲を封止材33で封止している。すなわち液晶層30は、基板1、基板32、及び封止材33で封止された空間内に位置している。
(Example 2)
FIG. 9 is a cross-sectional view illustrating the configuration of the liquid crystal device 200 according to the second embodiment. The liquid crystal device 200 includes a substrate 1, a substrate 32, and a sealing material 33. The liquid crystal layer 30 is sandwiched between the substrate 1 and the substrate 32 and the periphery thereof is sealed with the sealing material 33. . That is, the liquid crystal layer 30 is located in a space sealed with the substrate 1, the substrate 32, and the sealing material 33.

基板1は、ガラスや樹脂などの透光性を有する材料によって形成されている。基板1のうち液晶層30側の面には、透明電極(図示せず)が形成されている。また、液晶装置200は、例えば基板32と液晶層30の間に、カラーフィルタや液晶配向膜などを備えている。   The substrate 1 is made of a light-transmitting material such as glass or resin. A transparent electrode (not shown) is formed on the surface of the substrate 1 on the liquid crystal layer 30 side. The liquid crystal device 200 includes a color filter, a liquid crystal alignment film, and the like between the substrate 32 and the liquid crystal layer 30, for example.

基板32は、基板1と同様に、ガラスや樹脂などの透光性を有する材料によって形成されている。また、基板32のうち液晶層30側の面には、透明電極(図示せず)が形成されている。基板32には、さらに、表示画素を形成する画素電極と、画像信号に応じて画素毎に液晶を駆動する駆動素子(例えばTFT素子)が形成されている。   Similar to the substrate 1, the substrate 32 is formed of a light-transmitting material such as glass or resin. A transparent electrode (not shown) is formed on the surface of the substrate 32 on the liquid crystal layer 30 side. The substrate 32 further includes pixel electrodes that form display pixels and drive elements (for example, TFT elements) that drive liquid crystals for each pixel in accordance with image signals.

基板1における液晶層30の外側には引出配線35が引き出されている。引出配線35の一端は、光学素子である液晶素子(図示せず、液晶層30と透明電極、画素電極で形成されている)に接続されており、引出配線35の他端は基板32の外側に位置している。   On the outside of the liquid crystal layer 30 on the substrate 1, lead wires 35 are drawn. One end of the lead wiring 35 is connected to a liquid crystal element (not shown, formed of a liquid crystal layer 30, a transparent electrode, and a pixel electrode), and the other end of the lead wiring 35 is outside the substrate 32. Is located.

基板32のうち液晶層30とは逆の側(背面)には、回路基板30Aが配置されている。回路基板30Aには、液晶素子を駆動する駆動用IC36(制御部)が実装されている。駆動用IC36は、ボンディングワイヤ42を介して回路基板30Aの配線37に接続している。そして、配線37は、ボンディングワイヤ40を介して引出配線35と接続している。図示しないが、ボンディングワイヤ40,42はモールド樹脂で封止されている。   A circuit board 30 </ b> A is arranged on the side (back side) of the substrate 32 opposite to the liquid crystal layer 30. A driving IC 36 (control unit) for driving the liquid crystal element is mounted on the circuit board 30A. The driving IC 36 is connected to the wiring 37 of the circuit board 30 </ b> A via the bonding wire 42. The wiring 37 is connected to the lead wiring 35 through the bonding wire 40. Although not shown, the bonding wires 40 and 42 are sealed with mold resin.

なお、本実施例において、引出配線35が実施例1における引出配線18に対応しており、配線37が実施例1における配線22に対応している。そして、ボンディングワイヤ40が実施形態におけるボンディングワイヤ23に対応している。   In this embodiment, the lead-out wiring 35 corresponds to the lead-out wiring 18 in the first embodiment, and the wiring 37 corresponds to the wiring 22 in the first embodiment. The bonding wire 40 corresponds to the bonding wire 23 in the embodiment.

図9に示した例によると、ボンディングワイヤ40による接続構造を採用しているため、実施例1と同様に、接続領域の狭隈化が可能になり、表示領域(アクディブエリア)の外側の額縁領域を小さくすることができる。   In the example shown in FIG. 9, since the connection structure using the bonding wires 40 is adopted, the connection area can be narrowed as in the first embodiment, and the frame outside the display area (active area) can be obtained. The area can be reduced.

一般的な液晶装置では、図7,8に示した有機EL装置と同様に、引出配線35を透明電極(例えばITO等)で形成し、この引出配線35と配線37を、フレキシブル基板を用いて接続している。また、フレキシブル基板と引出配線35は、ACFを介して接続している。この場合、図7,8に示した例と同様に、表示領域の外側の額縁領域を狭くすることは難しい。   In a general liquid crystal device, similarly to the organic EL device shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the lead wire 35 is formed of a transparent electrode (for example, ITO), and the lead wire 35 and the wire 37 are formed using a flexible substrate. Connected. Further, the flexible substrate and the lead-out wiring 35 are connected via an ACF. In this case, as in the example shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, it is difficult to narrow the frame area outside the display area.

これに対して本実施例によれば、フレキシブル基板の代わりに、ボンディングワイヤ40を用いているため、液晶装置200を収容する筐体の収納スペースを小さくでき、その結果、電子機器の小型化・薄型化が可能になる。また、ボンディングワイヤ40と引出配線35の接続部の少なくとも一部において、ボンディングワイヤの芯部と引出配線35の導電部は、第2被覆部及び第1被覆部のいずれも介さずに接続している。従って、これらの間の電気的な接続を確実に行うことができる。   On the other hand, according to the present embodiment, since the bonding wire 40 is used instead of the flexible substrate, the storage space of the housing for storing the liquid crystal device 200 can be reduced. Thinning is possible. Further, in at least a part of the connection portion between the bonding wire 40 and the lead-out wiring 35, the core portion of the bonding wire and the conductive portion of the lead-out wiring 35 are connected without passing through either the second covering portion or the first covering portion. Yes. Therefore, the electrical connection between them can be reliably performed.

また、基板32の一面に駆動用IC36を配置できるので、液晶装置200の平面形状は、駆動IC36の形状による制約を受けない。このため、液晶装置200の平面形状の自由度が向上する。また、液晶装置200の平面形状には、フレキシブル基板に接続するためのコネクターの形状に起因した制約も生じない。従って、液晶装置200の平面形状を、円形、ハート形、星形などといった形状にすることができる。   Further, since the driving IC 36 can be disposed on one surface of the substrate 32, the planar shape of the liquid crystal device 200 is not restricted by the shape of the driving IC 36. For this reason, the freedom degree of the planar shape of the liquid crystal device 200 is improved. Further, the planar shape of the liquid crystal device 200 is not restricted due to the shape of the connector for connecting to the flexible substrate. Therefore, the planar shape of the liquid crystal device 200 can be a circular shape, a heart shape, a star shape, or the like.

また、実施形態又は実施例に係る導体の接続構造は、前述したような発光装置や表示装置への適用に限定されるものではなく、半導体装置又はタッチパネルを有するスイッチなどを含む各種の電子機器に適用可能である。また、ここでの電子機器とは、それ自体を単体で設置又は携帯できるものに限らず、例えば、自動車の車室内や家屋内に装備される電子的な機器を含むものとする。   Further, the conductor connection structure according to the embodiment or the example is not limited to the application to the light emitting device and the display device as described above, but to various electronic apparatuses including a semiconductor device or a switch having a touch panel. Applicable. In addition, the electronic device here is not limited to an electronic device that can be installed or carried by itself, but includes, for example, an electronic device that is installed in the interior of a car or in a house.
