Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] The present invention relates to a method for defect inspection of a film, and more particularly to a film defect inspection method for a display using a film as a substrate. _ [Prior Art] With the demand for lighterness in the display market, thin films are increasingly used in electronic devices, especially for organic film applications. Applications for thin films have evolved from the original electronic components such as organic film capacitors to today's display fields such as organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). For example, a single layer or a multilayer film is prepared by vacuum evaporation, spin coating or ink jet printing. The vacuum distillation technique is carried out by vacuuming equipment in a vacuum apparatus. In the spin coating method, a few drops of liquid are dropped on a substrate which is rotated at a high speed, and the liquid is distributed in a film form due to the centrifugal force formed by the rotation, thereby achieving the purpose of film formation. Mouth #墨列印工艺 The film is formed by sequentially ejecting the polymer materials of the respective colors onto the corresponding positions of the substrate by an ink jet printing device equipped with different color polymer luminescent materials. 1 However, in the process of film formation, the above various techniques are adopted, and some tiny impurity particles are inevitably attached to the inner wall of the steaming equipment, the substrate or the squirting cavity, and the impurity particles are perforated in the small-shaped region on the film, and the shadow (4) _ flatness, which in turn leads to = functional failure affecting product yield. Therefore, the defect inspection of the film must not be used in the film manufacturing process. The film is usually inspected by a strong light lamp (10). The glare inspection method irradiates the surface of the film with strong light, so that light leakage occurs at the perforated defect, and all black spots are generated due to opacity at the protrusion defect, and the light leakage point or all black spots and perforations Or the size of the particle protrusions corresponding to each other. The CCD camera (Charge Coupled Device Camera) or the black point or light leakage point is observed by the naked eye to check whether the film has defects. CCD camera system is a kind of photoelectric relay type image sensor. Its working principle is to convert image information into electrical signal by photoelectric conversion to realize measurement. However, since the light leakage point and the total black point are extremely small, and the trend of light and dark is not easy to observe, it is easy to check for omissions in the past, which leads to the continued use of defects, which in turn causes the display component to fail and affect the product yield. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above, it is necessary to provide a method for more effectively performing defect inspection on a film. ,

The H-spraying device 7 is atomized by the organic 丨 (not shown) filled with the surfactant. The organic solvent is gently sprayed onto the surface of the 半led semi-finished product a by the 1668863 spraying device 7, and after the organic solvent is dissolved, a Moir film can be formed on the surface of the QLED semi-finished product 2 (3) The blue film S film 3 is irradiated with a light source to trigger film interference (step 1〇1). , Ming-#Shen Cai Liu® and the seventh figure are the optical path analysis diagrams for the film defects of the semi-finished products of camphor. When the white light a is irradiated to the untitled part, because the white light is colored light, which is superimposed by the monochromatic light, only the monochromatic light of the same frequency is inspected. The coherent light of Qingcheng Erxiang County. Taking coherent light rays b and c as an example, the light rays b and the wires c are emitted in parallel with each other. Because of the thin 3 thickness of the smoke, and the film of the QLED semi-finished product 2 does not exist, there is no Ui 丨 other fresh monochromatic light, and the coherent filament is parallel to the light b and the two outgoing rays cannot form a interference fringe. Therefore, when the white light a π is incident on the defect-free film portion, interference fringes cannot be generated. >, when only when the white light 3 parallel to the white light 3 is irradiated to the perforation 221 f of the blue mur film 3, the incident angle of the white light d changes, and a monochromatic light passes through the mouth, The lower surface of the film 3 is reflected to form two-coherent light e and f. However, in the case where the perforation η $ is large and 222 is present, the blue Moore film I having a certain thickness is affected by the blue moore film 3, and the light path of the human shot is changed so that the coherent light e and f form a certain angle are coherent. The lights e and f will be imaged to form a surface of the blue mur film 3 into a bright stripe or a dark stripe. However, some people who shoot the same frequency monochromatic light of the dip" will be shaped by the optical path difference _, which will be shaped like a bright stripe or a dark stripe. Similarly, the 1266863 white light will form a plurality of curved colored stripes on the surface of the blue mur film 3 corresponding to the perforation 221 or the protrusion 222. Usually, the light source is a strong light to achieve higher inspection accuracy. / (4) observing the blue mur film 3 (process 102); the interference fringes appearing due to the interference of the aponeurosis magnify the pattern of the perforations 221 and the protrusions 222, and then directly observe by the camera or the naked eye When the image is easier to distinguish. (5) analyzing the film interference pattern produced, and obtaining the inspection result (process 1〇3); analyzing the interference pattern, it can be seen that the QLED semi-finished product 2 thin hoof is in the defect at the occurrence of the curved color stripe; There is no defect in the OLED semi-finished product 2 film corresponding to the silk pattern. After the completion of the inspection (8), the blue mur film 3 and the 半led semi-finished product 2 are processed (process 104). If the film of the OLED semi-finished product 2 has no defects after the ° 检查 inspection, the blue mul film should be removed. 3, in order to carry out subsequent operations such as sealing. Since the blue mulberry film 3 is easily soluble in an organic solvent, the blue mulberry thin 貘 3 can be removed by using an ethanol or isopropyl alcohol solvent. If there is a defect in the film of the 0LED semi-finished product 2, the defective product of the sinter coffee product 2 should be scrapped. * The defect inspection method of the OLED semi-finished product 2 film is inspected by the deposition-blue film 3 triggering the film interference phenomenon. The interference fringes formed by the thin film interference at the defect of the film are approximately the effect of amplifying the defect. 11 1266863 The inspection method is based on the pre-technical method. The inspection method is more effective. The above steps can be used to perform defects on the film of the LED semi-finished product 2. The inspection method is not only applicable to the film of the 〇LED semi-finished product 2, but also suitable for m ^ OTFT (Organic Thin Film Transistor film.
