Description

이중 마킹패드를 구비한 액정패널{Liquid Crystal Panel having double marking pad}Liquid crystal panel having double marking pad

본 발명은 액정패널에 관한 것으로, 보다 구체적으로 액정패널의 이력 관리를 위한 마킹패드에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a liquid crystal panel, and more particularly, to a marking pad for history management of a liquid crystal panel.

액정패널은 일반적으로 박막트랜지스터와 화소전극이 형성되어 있는 하부기판과, 칼라필터와 공통전극이 형성되어 있는 상부기판과, 그리고 상기 양기판 사이에 형성되어 있는 액정층으로 구성되어 있다.A liquid crystal panel generally includes a lower substrate on which a thin film transistor and a pixel electrode are formed, an upper substrate on which a color filter and a common electrode are formed, and a liquid crystal layer formed between the two substrates.

이와 같은 액정패널은 그 하부에 광원으로서 형성되는 백라이트 및 액정패널의 패드부와 연결되어 액정패널에 신호를 인가하는 구동회로부와 함께 하나의 중간제품인 액정모듈을 구성하게 된다. 물론, 광원으로서 외부광을 사용하는 경우는 백라이트가 형성되지 않는다.Such a liquid crystal panel is connected to a backlight formed as a light source and a pad portion of the liquid crystal panel at the bottom thereof, and forms a liquid crystal module, which is one intermediate product, with a driving circuit unit for applying a signal to the liquid crystal panel. Of course, no backlight is formed when external light is used as the light source.

이와 같은 액정모듈은 노트북 컴퓨터나, 컴퓨터 모니터, 휴대용 단말기 등 다양한 제품에 적용되게 되므로, 상기 액정패널을 이용하여 이와 같은 완성제품을 제작하기 위해서는 수많은 중간 공정이 수행되게 된다.Since the liquid crystal module is applied to various products such as a notebook computer, a computer monitor, a portable terminal, and the like, a number of intermediate processes are performed to manufacture such a finished product using the liquid crystal panel.

따라서, 상기 중간 공정들을 원활히 진행하기 위해서는 액정패널의 모델명, 생산연월 등의 이력관리가 중요하다.Therefore, in order to smoothly perform the intermediate processes, it is important to manage the history of the model name, production date, and the like of the liquid crystal panel.

이와 같은 액정패널의 이력관리를 위해서 종래에는 기판에 마킹패드를 형성하여 상기 마킹패드에 제품의 이력을 기재하는 방법을 사용하였는데, 이하, 첨부된 도면을 참조로 종래의 이력 기재 방법에 대해서 설명한다.In order to manage the history of the liquid crystal panel in the related art, a method of writing a marking pad on a substrate and writing a product history on the marking pad has been used. Hereinafter, a conventional history writing method will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. .

도 1은 마킹패드가 형성되어 있는 종래의 하부기판의 평면도이고, 도 2a 및 도 2b는 도 1의 A-A라인에 해당하는 일형태에 따른 단면도이다.1 is a plan view of a conventional lower substrate on which a marking pad is formed, and FIGS. 2A and 2B are cross-sectional views of one embodiment corresponding to the A-A line of FIG. 1.

우선, 도 1과 같이, 하부기판(1) 상에는 복수개의 게이트라인(3)과 데이터라인(5)이 서로 교차하도록 형성되어 화소영역을 정의하고, 상기 게이트라인(3)과 데이터라인(5)의 교차점에는 게이트전극, 게이트절연막, 반도체층, 오믹콘택층, 소스/드레인 전극, 및 보호막으로 구성된 박막트랜지스터(7)가 형성되어 있으며, 상기 드레인 전극과 전기적으로 연결되며 상기 화소영역 내에 화소전극(9)이 형성되어 있다.First, as shown in FIG. 1, a plurality of gate lines 3 and data lines 5 are formed on the lower substrate 1 to cross each other to define a pixel area, and the gate lines 3 and data lines 5 are defined. A thin film transistor 7 including a gate electrode, a gate insulating film, a semiconductor layer, an ohmic contact layer, a source / drain electrode, and a passivation layer is formed at an intersection point of the pixel electrode. 9) is formed.

그리고, 상기 게이트라인(3)과 데이터라인(5)의 끝에는 액정패널을 구동회로부와 연결시키기 위한 게이트패드(4)와 데이터패드(6)가 형성되어 패드영역(빗금 영역)을 정의하고, 상기 패드영역의 일측 모서리부에는 마킹패드(10)가 형성되어 있다. 이때, 상기 패드영역(빗금 영역)은 상기 화소영역의 외곽부로부터, 상기 하부기판(1)과 그 대향기판이 합착된 후 단위셀로 절단되는 라인(12)까지의 영역을 말한다.At the ends of the gate line 3 and the data line 5, a gate pad 4 and a data pad 6 for connecting the liquid crystal panel with the driving circuit unit are formed to define a pad area (hatched area). A marking pad 10 is formed at one corner of the pad area. In this case, the pad area (hatched area) refers to an area from the outer portion of the pixel area to the line 12 cut into unit cells after the lower substrate 1 and the counter substrate are bonded to each other.

한편, 이와 같은 마킹패드(10)는 상기 게이트라인(3) 형성시나, 또는 데이터라인(5) 형성시에 패터닝되어 형성된다.The marking pad 10 is patterned and formed when the gate line 3 is formed or when the data line 5 is formed.

이때, 상기 마킹패드(10)가 게이트라인(3) 형성시 패턴 형성된 경우는 도 2a와 같이 게이트라인(3)과 동일층, 즉 보호막(16) 및 게이트절연막(14) 하부에 게이트라인(3)과 동일물질로 마킹패드(10)가 형성되게 되고, 데이터라인(5) 형성시 패턴 형성된 경우는 도 2b와 같이 데이터라인(5)과 동일층, 즉 게이트절연막(14)과 보호막(16) 사이에 데이터라인(5)과 동일물질로 마킹패드(10)가 형성되게 된다.In this case, when the marking pad 10 is patterned when the gate line 3 is formed, the gate line 3 is formed on the same layer as the gate line 3, that is, under the passivation layer 16 and the gate insulating layer 14 as shown in FIG. 2A. In the case where the marking pad 10 is formed of the same material and the pattern is formed when the data line 5 is formed, the same layer as the data line 5, that is, the gate insulating layer 14 and the passivation layer 16, is formed as shown in FIG. 2B. The marking pad 10 is formed of the same material as the data line 5 therebetween.

그후, 상기 마킹 패드(10)의 상부에 레이저 장치를 위치시키고 레이저를 조사하여 모델명, 생산연월, 로트(lot)번호등을 기재하게 된다.Thereafter, the laser device is placed on the marking pad 10 and irradiated with a laser to describe a model name, a production date, a lot number, and the like.

그러나, 이와 같은 마킹패드(10)는 게이트라인(3) 또는 데이터라인(5)과 동일층에 형성되므로, 상기 마킹패드(10)를 패턴 형성 후에 보호막 형성공정, 보호막에 콘택홀을 형성하는 공정, 및 화소전극 형성공정 등 많은 패턴형성 공정이 행해지게 된다.However, since the marking pad 10 is formed on the same layer as the gate line 3 or the data line 5, a process of forming the protective pad after forming the patterning pad 10 and forming a contact hole in the protective film is performed. A large number of pattern forming processes, such as, and pixel electrode forming processes, are performed.

따라서, 이와 같은 마킹패드(10) 형성 공중 후에 행해지는 패턴 형성공정 중, 특히 패턴 형성시 식각액 등에 의해 상기 마킹패드(10)가 손상될 우려가 있다. 이와 같이 마킹패드(10)가 손상되면, 레이저 조사에 의한 이력 기재가 원활히 이루어지지 못하여 제품생산이 어려움이 발생되게 된다.Therefore, the marking pad 10 may be damaged by an etching solution or the like during the pattern formation process performed after the marking pad 10 is formed in the air. When the marking pad 10 is damaged in this way, the history substrate is not made smoothly by laser irradiation is difficult to produce the product.

본 발명은 상기 문제점을 감안하여 안출된 것으로서, 본 발명은 목적은 마킹패드의 손상을 최소로하여 액정패널의 이력관리를 원할하게 하고자 하는 것이다.The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to facilitate the history management of the liquid crystal panel with minimal damage to the marking pad.

도 1은 마킹패드가 형성되어 있는 종래의 하부기판의 평면도이다.1 is a plan view of a conventional lower substrate on which a marking pad is formed.

도 2a 및 도 2b는 도 1의 A-A라인에 해당하는 일형태에 따른 단면도이다.2A and 2B are cross-sectional views of one embodiment corresponding to the A-A line in FIG. 1.

Another marking pad 200c formed on the same layer as 150 may be formed, and as shown in FIG. 4C, one marking pad 200b formed on the same layer as the semiconductor layer and the same layer as the data line 150 may be formed. It may be composed of one other marking pad (200c) formed in.

이때, 상기 설명되지 않은 도면부호 260은 보호막을 나타낸다.In this case, reference numeral 260, which is not described above, indicates a protective film.

상기 이중 마킹패드(200)는 상기 게이트라인(130), 상기 반도체층, 또는 상기 데이터라인(150)의 패턴형성시 그 형성물질과 동일물질로 패턴형성함으로써, 별도의 추가 공정 없이 형성될 수 있다.The double marking pad 200 may be formed without a separate process by forming a pattern of the same material as the material of forming the gate line 130, the semiconductor layer, or the data line 150. .

또한, 상기 이중 마킹패드(200)는 각각의 마킹패드가 서로 겹쳐지도록 형성시키는 것이 바람직하고, 상기 패드 영역내에 복수개 형성시키는 것도 가능하다.In addition, the double marking pads 200 may be formed so that each marking pad overlaps each other, and a plurality of the double marking pads 200 may be formed in the pad area.

이와 같이, 이중으로 형성된 마킹패드(200)에는 레이저 조사를 통해 모델명, 생산연월, 로트(lot)번호 등이 기재됨으로써, 결국 제품의 이력이 이중으로 기재되어 있는 마킹패드가 형성된다.As described above, the marking pad 200 formed as a double is provided with a model name, a production date, a lot number, and the like through laser irradiation, thereby forming a marking pad in which the history of the product is described in duplicate.

상기 구성에 의한 본 발명에 따른 액정패널은 마킹패드를 이중으로 형성하여 비록 공정중 하나의 마킹패드가 소실된다 하더라도, 액정패널의 이력관리가 가능하게 된다.In the liquid crystal panel according to the present invention having the above configuration, the marking pad may be formed in duplicate so that the history management of the liquid crystal panel is possible even if one marking pad is lost in the process.
