Description

光感測單元及光學感測陣列結構Light sensing unit and optical sensing array structure

本發明係關於一種光感測技術,特別是一種光感測單元以及光學感測陣列結構。The invention relates to a light sensing technology, in particular to a light sensing unit and an optical sensing array structure.

隨著科技的發展,行動電話、個人筆記型電腦或平板等電子系統已經成為了生活中必備之工具。為避免重要資訊遭到遺失或是盜用等情況,在電子系統搭配辨識指紋的功能已蔚為趨勢。現行的電子系統已逐漸廣泛應用光感測技術來實現指紋辨識功能。With the development of technology, electronic systems such as mobile phones, personal notebook computers or tablets have become essential tools in life. In order to avoid the loss or misappropriation of important information, it is becoming a trend to use fingerprint recognition in electronic systems. The current electronic system has gradually widely used light sensing technology to realize the fingerprint identification function.

光感測式指紋辨識器主要是在玻璃基板上做出陣列配置的光感測單元,並且在利用光源照射手指後由光感測單元接收反射光來進行辨識。當指紋的波峰及波谷在碰觸指紋辨識器時,會因為指紋的波峰直接接觸與指紋的波谷存在空氣間隙而造成反射率的差異,進而形成不同光強度的反射光。光感測單元中的光敏介電層會因接收到的光強度不同而產生光電流。產生的光電流會經由與光敏介電層接觸的透明電極層傳送至外部電路進行訊號分析以生成對應的操作指令。The light-sensing fingerprint reader is mainly a light-sensing unit configured in an array on a glass substrate, and the reflected light is received by the light-sensing unit for identification after the finger is illuminated by a light source. When the peaks and valleys of the fingerprint touch the fingerprint reader, the reflectance will be different due to the air gap between the direct contact of the peaks of the fingerprint and the valleys of the fingerprint, resulting in reflected light with different light intensities. The photosensitive dielectric layer in the photo-sensing unit generates a photocurrent due to different received light intensities. The generated photocurrent is transmitted to an external circuit through a transparent electrode layer in contact with the photosensitive dielectric layer for signal analysis to generate a corresponding operation instruction.

於此,光敏介電層通常是半導體材料,而透明電極層為透明導電材料。由於半導體材料與透明導電材料的晶格不匹配,使得光敏介電層產生的電子難以透過透明電極層傳導至外部電路,因而影響後續訊號分析的結果,以致降低指紋辨識的準確性。Here, the photosensitive dielectric layer is usually a semiconductor material, and the transparent electrode layer is a transparent conductive material. Due to the lattice mismatch between the semiconductor material and the transparent conductive material, it is difficult for the electrons generated from the photosensitive dielectric layer to be conducted to the external circuit through the transparent electrode layer, which affects the results of subsequent signal analysis and reduces the accuracy of fingerprint identification.

此些第二接觸窗W2分別對應此些光感測單元110的光敏介電層114。於此,各第二接觸窗W2位於對應的光敏介電層114上,並露出此光敏介電層114的上表面。換言之,各第二接觸窗W2為貫穿圖案化保護層130的另一開口。第三電極113可通過第二接觸窗W2與光敏介電層114相連接。The second contact windows W2 respectively correspond to the photosensitive dielectric layers 114 of the photo-sensing units 110. Here, each of the second contact windows W2 is located on the corresponding photosensitive dielectric layer 114, and the upper surface of the photosensitive dielectric layer 114 is exposed. In other words, each of the second contact windows W2 is another opening penetrating the patterned protective layer 130. The third electrode 113 may be connected to the photosensitive dielectric layer 114 through the second contact window W2.

並且,在各光感測單元110中,第三電極113覆蓋於圖案化保護層130上,且經由第一接觸窗W1與橋接電極115直接接觸以及經由第二接觸窗W2與光敏介電層114直接接觸。換言之,第三電極113由圖案化保護層130的上表面沿著第一接觸窗W1的側壁而延伸至並第一接觸窗W1底部並接觸位於第一接觸窗W1底部的橋接電極115。同樣地,第三電極113亦由圖案化保護層130的上表面沿著第二接觸窗W2的側壁而延伸至並第二接觸窗W2底部並接觸位於第二接觸窗W2底部的光敏介電層114。Moreover, in each light sensing unit 110, the third electrode 113 is covered on the patterned protective layer 130, and is in direct contact with the bridge electrode 115 via the first contact window W1, and the photosensitive dielectric layer 114 via the second contact window W2. direct contact. In other words, the third electrode 113 extends from the upper surface of the patterned protective layer 130 along the sidewall of the first contact window W1 to the bottom of the first contact window W1 and contacts the bridge electrode 115 at the bottom of the first contact window W1. Similarly, the third electrode 113 extends from the upper surface of the patterned protective layer 130 along the side wall of the second contact window W2 to the bottom of the second contact window W2 and contacts the photosensitive dielectric layer at the bottom of the second contact window W2. 114.

在一實施例中,圖案化保護層130的各第一接觸窗W1的開口尺寸大致上等於對應的橋接電極115的上表面TS的尺寸。即,各第一接觸窗W1露出對應的橋接電極115的整個上表面。In an embodiment, the opening size of each of the first contact windows W1 of the patterned protective layer 130 is substantially equal to the size of the upper surface TS of the corresponding bridge electrode 115. That is, each first contact window W1 exposes the entire upper surface of the corresponding bridge electrode 115.

在另一實施例中,圖案化保護層130的各第一接觸窗W1的開口尺寸小於對應的橋接電極115的上表面TS的尺寸。依此,各第一接觸窗W1露出對應的橋接電極115的部分上表面。此外,於各第一接觸窗W1的開口尺寸小於對應的橋接電極115的上表面TS的尺寸時,各第一接觸窗W1可位於對應的橋接電極115的中間,即各第一接觸窗W1不會暴露橋接電極115上表面鄰近光敏介電層114的邊緣區域。In another embodiment, the opening size of each of the first contact windows W1 of the patterned protective layer 130 is smaller than the size of the upper surface TS of the corresponding bridge electrode 115. Accordingly, each of the first contact windows W1 exposes a part of the upper surface of the corresponding bridge electrode 115. In addition, when the opening size of each first contact window W1 is smaller than the size of the upper surface TS of the corresponding bridge electrode 115, each first contact window W1 may be located in the middle of the corresponding bridge electrode 115, that is, each first contact window W1 is not An edge region of the upper surface of the bridge electrode 115 adjacent to the photosensitive dielectric layer 114 may be exposed.

圖4為圖3中區域C的局部放大圖。參照圖3及圖4,由於圖案化保護層130的折射率小於各第三電極113,因此來自手指的反射光L1入射至第三電極113後於碰到橋接電極115和圖案化保護層130時,穿過第三電極113的部分大角度反射光L1會於第三電極113和圖案化保護層130的界面產生全反射,以避免內反射至光敏介電層114而影響感測結果。FIG. 4 is a partially enlarged view of a region C in FIG. 3. Referring to FIGS. 3 and 4, since the refractive index of the patterned protective layer 130 is smaller than that of each of the third electrodes 113, the reflected light L1 from the finger enters the third electrode 113 and then touches the bridge electrode 115 and the patterned protective layer 130. A part of the large-angle reflected light L1 passing through the third electrode 113 will cause total reflection at the interface between the third electrode 113 and the patterned protective layer 130 to avoid internal reflection to the photosensitive dielectric layer 114 and affect the sensing result.

請參閱回圖1,在此實施例中,各主動元件120與對應的其中一掃描線GL電性連接以及與對應的其中一資料線DL電性連接,且主動元件120與對應的光感測單元110的第二電極112電性連接。換言之,各光感測單元110的第二電極112與透過對應的主動元件120而與對應的資料線DL電性連接。Please refer back to FIG. 1. In this embodiment, each of the active devices 120 is electrically connected to a corresponding one of the scan lines GL and is connected to a corresponding one of the data lines DL. The second electrode 112 of the unit 110 is electrically connected. In other words, the second electrode 112 of each light sensing unit 110 is electrically connected to the corresponding data line DL through the corresponding active device 120.

於此,光感測單元110的光敏介電層114照射到光會漏電。掃描線GL與資料線DL能透過對應的主動元件120對所對應的光感測單元110的二耦合電容(第一電極111與第二電極112之間形成的電容以及第三電極113與第二電極112之間形成的電容)進行充電,並於充電後回傳對應的光感測單元110中光敏介電層114的光漏電大小,依據光漏電的大小來進行觸控事件的感測與辨識。換言之,當手指位於光感測單元110上方時,手指所造成的反射光L1會照射穿過第三電極113至光敏介電層114,使得光敏介電層114的阻抗下降。其中,光敏介電層114的阻抗的下降程度會依手指指紋的波峰和波谷所反射的反射光L1的強度而有所不同。主動元件120可作為所對應的光感測單元110的開關,以便對光感測單元110進行充電。依此,可依據光感測單元110的充電量而獲得手指的指紋圖案。Here, the photosensitive dielectric layer 114 of the photo-sensing unit 110 will leak electricity when irradiated with light. The scanning lines GL and the data lines DL can pass through the corresponding active element 120 to the two coupling capacitances of the corresponding light sensing unit 110 (the capacitance formed between the first electrode 111 and the second electrode 112 and the third electrode 113 and the second The capacitance formed between the electrodes 112) is charged, and the magnitude of the light leakage of the photosensitive dielectric layer 114 in the corresponding light sensing unit 110 is returned after charging, and the touch event is sensed and identified based on the size of the light leakage. . In other words, when the finger is located above the light sensing unit 110, the reflected light L1 caused by the finger will irradiate through the third electrode 113 to the photosensitive dielectric layer 114, so that the impedance of the photosensitive dielectric layer 114 decreases. The degree of the decrease in the impedance of the photosensitive dielectric layer 114 varies depending on the intensity of the reflected light L1 reflected by the peaks and valleys of the fingerprint of the finger. The active element 120 can be used as a switch of the corresponding light sensing unit 110 so as to charge the light sensing unit 110. According to this, the fingerprint pattern of the finger can be obtained according to the charge amount of the light sensing unit 110.
