Description of the invention (1) Description of the invention: The present invention relates to a display element and a manufacturing method thereof, and particularly to a liquid crystal display element and a manufacturing method thereof. The main method of manufacturing LCD devices and panels today is based on amorphous silicon (a-Si) TFT technology. Using these technologies, it is possible to produce cost-effective high-quality image displays in low-temperature processes. A conventional LCD element includes a transparent substrate, an array of TFTs arranged in an array, a plurality of pixel electrodes, and a plurality of gate lines and data lines arranged in an orthogonal arrangement. A color filter (Fi Iter) plate, a liquid crystal material between the substrate and the color filter plate. Amorphous silicon TFT technology requires the use of a separate peripheral integrated circuit to drive the array to align the gates and sources of TFTs. Therefore, a large number of pads are needed to connect the gate and data lines. The gate line coupling (couple) is connected to the "pole" and the data line is coupled to the peripheral driving circuit. One method of making an amorphous silicon TFT LCD display panel is to make a metal layer on a transparent substrate for the gate and gate lines. However, in large displays, the signal delay on the gate line will significantly reduce the uniformity of the image on the display panel. Therefore, the line resistance (Line resistance
Resistance)和線電容(Line Capacitance)所產生的Rc 時 間常數必須儘量減小。為抑制面板中短路所導致的缺陷 必須防止異常析出(H i 1 1 〇 c k )所形成。而阻止異常析出的 其中一種方法為,在閘極和閘線上進行陽極氧化,以形' 一氧化表層(0xide Surface Layer),例如,在一鋁電' 或閘線上形成氧化鋁(A1〇)層。陽極氧化技術和製作顯示The Rc time constant generated by Resistance and Line Capacitance must be minimized. In order to suppress defects caused by short circuits in the panel, it is necessary to prevent abnormal precipitation (H i 1 1 0 c k) from being formed. One method to prevent abnormal precipitation is to perform anodization on the gate and the gate lines to form a '0xide Surface Layer', for example, to form an aluminum oxide (A10) layer on the gate or gate lines. .
