本发明的实施例涉及一种阵列基板及制造方法和显示装置。 背景技术
薄膜晶体管液晶显示器 ( Thin Firm Transistor Liquid Crystal Display, TFT-LCD )以其体积小, 功耗低, 无辐射, 分辨率高等优点成为了目前的主 导产品。
TFT-LCD主要由对盒的阵列基板和彩膜基板构成, 其中, 阵列基板上形 成有彼此交叉设置的多条栅极扫描线和多条数据信号线, 并且, 由彼此交叉 设置的多条栅极扫描线和多条数据信号线限定的排列为矩阵的多个像素区中 的每个像素区覆盖有像素电极。 如图 1所示, 该 TFT-LCD阵列基板包括: 交叉设置的多条栅极扫描线 100和多条数据信号线 200; 由多条栅极扫描线 100和多条数据信号线 200限定的排列为矩阵的多个像素区; 以及在多个像 素区中的每个像素区上覆盖的像素电极 300, 其中, 相邻的两条栅极扫描线 100和与其交叉的相邻两条数据信号线 200限定一个像素区。
由于, 每个像素区上覆盖的像素电极并不覆盖在栅极扫描线上, 也不覆 盖在数据信号线上, 因此, 在栅极扫描线和数据信号线所处的区域会存在漏 光, 这样, 需在彩膜基板上对应位置设置黑矩阵(BM ) , 从而, 会不利地 影响 TFT-LCD的开口率。
目前,液晶显示器的分辨率不断提高,每英寸像素(Pixels Per Inch, PPI ) 越来越高, 像素的尺寸也越来越小。 而对于高端的像素设计来说, 开口率的 提升显得尤为重要, 但是也是越来越困难。
一般影响 TFT-LCD开口率的主要因素包括:
1、液晶显示器的分辨率和显示尺寸。 因为分辨率和显示尺寸决定了像素 尺寸的大小, 在固有的工艺基础上, 像素的尺寸越大, 开口率相对越高;
2、 电极材料, 主要是栅极扫描线和数据信号线的电阻率属性,如果电极 材料的电阻率高的话,为了降低信号传输的延迟,不得不把这些线做宽一些, 这样无疑会降低像素的开口率;
3、设计上或者工艺上的冗余度, 为了产品量产的稳定性, 在设计时要尽 量保证稳定的可靠设计, 此外, 考虑到工艺波动, 都会留有一定的冗余度, 因此, 这也会影响到像素的开口率。
对于一个特定 TFT-LCD产品来说, 分辨率和尺寸确定后, 像素的尺寸 也就被固定了下来。 并且, 现有的业内电极材料中, 虽然有电阻率比较低的 金属材料, 但是由于工艺, 线宽方面也不能做到非常小。 因此, 减少设计和 工艺的冗余度成为提高开口率的主要途径。
例如: 目前一些 TFT-LCD产品中, 将像素电极覆盖在数据信号线的上 方, 这样可以减少漏光的面积, 另外可以利用数据信号线形成一部分挡光, 从而可以减小 BM的宽度, 进而带来提升开口率。
但是, 数据信号线的宽度比较窄, 一般为 4微米左右, 为防止相邻的像 素电极之间发生短路现象, 这些 TFT-LCD产品中, 只能有部分数据信号线 的上方, 或者, 数据信号线上方的部分区域, 可以覆盖有像素电极, 即相邻 像素电极之间仍然有空隙。这样,阵列基板上很多区域是没有覆盖像素电极, 因此, 这些区域不能形成调制电场, 液晶显示器仍存在漏光, 还需在彩膜基 板上对应位置设置黑 BM。 这样, , 只能有限地提高 TFT-LCD的开口率而且 还存在短路的风险。 因此, , 现有的 TFT-LCD的开口率以及稳定性还需进 一步提高。 发明内容

为了更清楚地说明本发明实施例的技术方案, 下面将对实施例的附图作 简单地介绍,显而易见地,下面描述中的附图仅仅涉及本发明的一些实施例, 而非对本发明的限制。

图 2本发明实施例中 TFT-LCD阵列基板的平面示意图;
图 3为图 2中本发明实施例的 TFT-LCD阵列基板沿线 A-A'的截面示意 图;

为使本发明实施例的目的、 技术方案和优点更加清楚, 下面将结合本发 明实施例的附图,对本发明实施例的技术方案进行清楚、 完整地描述。显然, 所描述的实施例是本发明的一部分实施例, 而不是全部的实施例。 基于所描 述的本发明的实施例, 本领域普通技术人员在无需创造性劳动的前提下所获 得的所有其他实施例, 都属于本发明保护的范围。
本发明实施例中, TFT-LCD的阵列基板上包括: 交叉设置的多条栅极扫 描线和多条数据信号线; 由多条栅极扫描线和多条数据信号线限定的排列为 矩阵的多个像素区; 多个像素区中的每个像素区中包括作为开关元件的薄膜 晶体管; 以及在多个像素区中的每个像素区上覆盖的像素电极, 其中, 相邻 的像素区上覆盖的像素电极不在同一层上, 而且, 其中每个像素的薄膜晶体 管的栅极与相应的栅线扫描线电连接或一体形成, 源极与相应的数据信号线 电连接或一体形成, 漏极与相应的像素电极电连接或一体形成。 而且, 在本 发明实施例中, 像素电极是通过两次构图工艺形成的, 例如, 首先, 在基板 上形成交叉设置的多条栅极扫描线和多条数据信号线后, 在该基板上互不相 邻的每个第一像素区上形成对应的第一像素电极; 然后, 在形成了第一像素 电极的基板上沉积了绝缘层后, 在互不相邻的每个第二像素区上形成对应的 第二像素电极, 其中, 第二像素区与第一像素区不同。 这样, 由于相邻的像 素区上覆盖的像素电极不在同一层上, 从而在减少设计和工艺的冗余度来提 高 TFT-LCD开口率的同时, 不会发生相邻像素区上覆盖的像素电极之间短 路的现象。
该像素电极例如通过铟锡氧化物(ITO )、 铟辞氧化物(IZO )、 氧化锡 ( SnOx )等透明导电材料形成。
下面结合图 2和 3对本发明实施例的阵列基板的结构进行详细说明。 参见图 2, 本发明实施例中, TFT-LCD阵列基板包括: 交叉设置的多条 栅极扫描线 100和多条数据信号线 200; 由彼此交叉设置的多条栅极扫描线 100和多条数据信号线 200限定的排列为矩阵的多个像素区, 其中, 该多个 像素区分成第一像素区和第二像素区, 且在栅极扫描线方向和数据信号线方 向第一像素区和第二像素区彼此交替设置, 每个像素区由相邻的两条栅极扫 描线 100和与其交叉的相邻两条数据信号 200线限定。
这里, 第一像素区之间间隔设置, 且每个第一像素区上覆盖有对应的第 一像素电极 300, 第一像素电极 300处于第一层; 第二像素区之间间隔设置, 且每个第二像素区上覆盖有对应的第二像素电极 400, 第二像素电极 400处 于第二层; 并且, 第一层与第二层之间包括: 绝缘层。 本发明实施例中, 间 隔设置指间隔一个像素区设置。 即第一像素区之间互不相邻, 第二像素区之 间也互不相邻, 从而, 第一像素电极 300之间间隔设置, 第二像素电极 400 之间也间隔设置。
该 TFT-LCD阵列基板的沿线 A-A'的剖面图如图 3所示, 在玻璃基板 1 上有数据信号线 200, 第一像素电极 300位于数据信号线 200上方, 第一像 素电极 300上方有绝缘层 2, 绝缘层 2上方有第二像素电极 400。
由于第一像素电极 300之间间隔设置, 第二像素电极 400之间也间隔设 置, 并且, 第一像素电极 300与第二像素电极 400分别位于两个层, 而且, 即使第一像素电极 300覆盖形成在其所在的第一像素区的栅极扫描线和 /或 数据信号线, 相邻第一像素电极 300也相距很远而不会相连接。 这样, 相邻 像素区上覆盖的像素电极之间不会发生短路。 本发明实施例中, 还可以进一 步减少设计和工艺的冗余度, 提高开口率。
备选地, 在栅极扫描线方向相邻的像素区上覆盖的第一像素电极 300与 第二像素电极 400在对应的数据信号线上方交叠。 这样, 第一像素电极 300 可以覆盖限定其所在第一像素区的对应的数据信号线上方部分或全部区域, 而第二像素电极 400也可覆盖限定其所在第二像素区的对应的数据信号线上 方部分或全部区域。 这里, 如图 3所示, 第一像素电极 300覆盖了限定所在 第一像素区的对应的数据信号线上方部分或全部区域, 相邻的像素区上覆盖 的第二像素电极 400也覆盖了限定其所在第二像素区的对应的数据信号线上 方部分或全部区域。
由于第一像素电极 300与第二像素电极 400分别位于两个层, 这样, 相 邻像素区上覆盖的像素电极之间不会发生短路。 并且, 在栅极扫描线方向, 相邻的像素区上覆盖的像素电极之间没有空隙或者空隙被减少, 减少了带来 漏光影响的区域, 从而提高了开口率。
备选地, 也可以在数据信号线方向的相邻的像素区上覆盖的第一像素电 极与第二像素电极在对应的栅极扫描线上方交叠, 而只减少数据信号线方向 上像素电极之间的空隙。
作为示例, 该 TFT-LCD阵列基板上, 可以有一个、 两个、 多个, 或全 部的第一像素电极 300与限定其所在第一像素区的对应的栅极扫描线交叠。 即可有一个, 两个, 多个, 或全部的第一像素电极 300覆盖在对应栅极扫描 线上方部分或全部区域。 或者, 有一个, 两个, 多个, 或全部的第二像素电极 400与对应的栅极扫描线 交叠。 即可有一个, 两个, 多个, 或全部的第二像素电极 400覆盖在对应栅 极扫描线上方部分或全部区域。 或者,
有一个, 两个, 多个, 或全部的第一像素电极 300与对应的栅极扫描线 交叠, 以及, 有一个, 两个, 多个, 或全部的第二像素电极 400与对应的栅 极扫描线交叠。 即有一个, 两个, 多个, 或全部的第一像素电极 300覆盖在 对应栅极扫描线上方部分或全部区域, 以及有一个, 两个, 多个, 或全部的 第二像素电极 400覆盖在对应栅极扫描线上方部分或全部区域。
这样, 由于数据信号线方向上像素电极之间的空隙减少了, 或没有了, 从而, 减少了带来漏光影响的区域, 提高了开口率。
备选地, 在数据信号线方向的相邻的像素区上覆盖的第一像素电极与第 二像素电极在对应的栅极扫描线上方交叠, 同时在栅极扫描线方向相邻的像 素区上覆盖的第一像素电极与第二像素电极在对应的数据信号线上方交叠, 这样不仅可以减少栅极扫描线方向上像素电极之间的空隙, 而且还可以减少 数据信号线方向上像素电极之间的空隙。 这样, 在栅极扫描线方向, 相邻的 像素区上覆盖的像素电极之间没有空隙或者空隙被减少, 同时, 数据信号线 方向上相邻像素电极之间的空隙减少了, 或没有了, 从而, 减少了带来漏光 影响的区域, 提高了开口率。
在如图 2所示的 TFT-LCD阵列基板中, 栅极扫描线方向上像素电极之 间的空隙没有了, 该阵列基板与彩膜基板对盒后形成 TFT-LCD后, 由于在 栅极扫描线方向的相邻的像素区上覆盖的第一像素电极 300与第二像素电极 400在对应的数据信号线上方交叠, 这样使得液晶盒内任意位置都有像素电 极和彩膜上公共电极之间形成的调制电场, 即在液晶盒内形成完全的调制电 场, 如图 4所示。 从而, 使得液晶盒内无漏光的可能性, 这样就可以避免考 虑对盒对位冗余度, 把彩膜基板上的 BM的线宽设计最小化, 以此来提高像 素开口率, 提高 TFT-LCD的性能。
进一步, 在如图 4所示的实施例中, 如果对盒工艺的精度足够高的话, 可以将栅极扫描线和数据信号线来作挡光层, 进而省去彩膜基板上的 BM。
备选地, 由于像素电极和数据信号线之间存在寄生电容, 当该寄生电容 过大时, 会导致液晶显示器的串扰非常严重, 因此, 在本发明实施例中, 在 数据信号线和像素电极之间插入一层树脂材料, 即第一像素电极 300所处的 第一层与数据信号线所在层之间还包括: 树脂层。 这样, 由于树脂材料本身 的介电常数较低, 厚度也会大一些, 从而, 可以有效降低像素电极和数据线 之间的寄存电容, 进而改善画面特性, 提高 TFT-LCD的性能。
这里,如图 4所示,在第一像素电极 300所处的第一层与数据信号线 200 所在层之间包括: 树脂层 3。
本发明实施例中, TFT-LCD阵列基板上相邻的像素区上的像素电极不在 同一层, 即通过两次构图工艺形成像素电极。 而构图工艺中有分别包括: 掩 模、 曝光、 显影、 刻蚀和剥离等工艺。
以下, 将对本发明实施例的阵列基板的制造方形进行详细说明。
作为示例, 制造 TFT-LCD阵列基板的过程包括:
步骤 501 : 在基板上形成包括交叉设置的栅极扫描线和数据信号线的图 形, 其中, 相邻的两条栅极扫描线和与其交叉的相邻两条数据信号线限定一 个像素区。
通过两次或多次构图工艺在基板上形成交叉设置的多条栅极扫描线和多 条数据信号线。 这样, 由这些栅极扫描线和数据信号线限定排列为矩阵的多 个像素区, 即相邻的两条栅极扫描线和与其交叉的相邻两条数据信号线限定 一个像素区, 其中, 多个像素区被分为第一像素区和第二像素区, 在栅极扫 描线方向和数据信号线方向第一像素区和第二像素区彼此交替设置。 其中, 第一像素区之间间隔设置, 第二像素区之间也间隔设置, 这样, 第一像素区 之间互不相邻, 第二像素区之间也互不相邻, 而第一像素区与第二像素区不 同。
步骤 502: 在形成有多条栅极扫描线和多条数据信号线的基板上对应于 所述第一像素区形成第一像素电极。
在形成有多条栅极扫描线和多条数据信号线的基板上通过一次构图工艺 在互不相邻的每个第一像素区上对应形成第一像素电极。 即形成多个第一像 素电极,每个第一像素电极对应一个像素区, 第一像素电极间隔设置。这里, 第一像素电极对应的像素区为第一像素区,间隔设置指间隔一个像素区设置。 但是, 如果第一像素电极延伸为覆盖形成所在第一像素区的栅极扫描线和 / 或数据信号线, 相邻第一像素区之间的间隔可能会小于一个像素区。 其中,至少一个第一像素电极可以覆盖数据信号线上方部分或全部区域, 或, 至少第一像素电极可以覆盖栅极扫描线上方部分或全部区域, 或者, 至 少一个第一像素电极可以覆盖数据信号线上方部分或全部区域, 和, 至少一 个第一像素电极可以覆盖栅极扫描线上方部分或全部区域。
步骤 503: 在形成了第一像素电极的基板上沉积绝缘层, 形成绝缘层。 绝缘层用来隔离第一像素电极与第二像素电极, 一般, 绝缘层包括氮化 硅。
步骤 504: 在形成了绝缘层的基板上形成多个第二像素电极, 每个第二 像素电极对应一个第二像素区, 第二像素电极间隔设置, 且设置于未设置第 一像素电极的像素区。 这里, 第二像素电极对应的像素区为第二像素区, 第 二像素区间隔设置。 即可在矩阵中互不相邻的每个第二像素区上形成对应第 二像素电极, 其中, 第二像素区与第一像素区不同。
通过构图工艺在形成有多条栅极扫描线、 多条数据信号线、 第一像素电 极及绝缘层的基板上对应于每个第二像素区形成第二像素电极。 由于第二像 素区与第一像素区不同, 这样, 相邻的像素区上覆盖的像素电极不在同一层 上。
这里,至少一个第二像素电极可以覆盖数据信号线上方部分或全部区域, 或, 至少第二像素电极可以覆盖栅极扫描线上方部分或全部区域, 或者, 至 少一个第二像素电极可以覆盖数据信号线上方部分或全部区域, 和, 至少二 个第一像素电极可以覆盖栅极扫描线上方部分或全部区域。
因此, 本发明实施例中, 在栅极扫描线方向的相邻的像素区上覆盖的第 一像素电极与第二像素电极可在对应的数据信号线上方交叠。
备选地, 至少一个第一像素电极与对应的栅极扫描线交叠; 或, 至少一个第二像素电极与对应的栅极扫描线交叠; 或,
至少一个第一像素电极与对应的栅极扫描线交叠, 和至少一个第二像素 电极与对应的栅极扫描线交叠。
通过上述工艺即可制造出相邻的像素区上覆盖的像素电极不在同一层的 TFT-LCD阵列基板。 当然, 为有效降低像素电极和数据线之间的寄存电容, 本发明实施例中, 在步骤 502之前, 还包括: 在形成了包括栅极扫描线和数 据信号线的图形的基板上沉积树脂层。 上述所有实施例中以 TFT-LCD的阵列基板为例进行描述, 但是本发明 实施例不限于此, 电子纸、 OLED面板、 数码相框、 手机、 平板电脑等具有 任何显示功能的产品或部件中的阵列基板也可釆用上述阵列基板。
本发明实施例还提供了一种显示装置, 其包括上述任意一种阵列基板。 该显示装置的一个示例为液晶显示装置, 其中, TFT阵列基板与对置基 板彼此对置以形成液晶盒, 在液晶盒中填充有液晶材料。 该对置基板例如为 彩膜基板。 TFT阵列基板的每个像素单元的像素电极用于施加电场对液晶材 料的旋转的程度进行控制从而进行显示操作。 在一些示例中, 该液晶显示器 还包括为阵列基板提供背光的背光源。
该显示装置的另一个示例为有机电致发光显示装置, 其中, TFT阵列基 进行显示操作。
所述显示装置可以为: 液晶面板、 电子纸、 OLED面板、 液晶电视、 液 晶显示器、 数码相框、 手机、 平板电脑等具有任何显示功能的产品或部件。
本发明实施例的显示装置中, 阵列基板中不相邻的像素区上覆盖的像素 电极位于同一层中,而相邻的像素区上覆盖的像素电极位于不同层中,这样, 在减少设计和工艺的冗余度来提高阵列基板开口率的同时, 不会发生相邻像 素区上覆盖的像素电极短路现象, 提高了显示装置的透光效率以及稳定性。
另外, 在栅极扫描线方向的相邻的像素区上覆盖的像素电极在对应的数 据信号线上方交叠, 这样, 可在液晶盒内形成完全的调制电场, 使得液晶盒 内无漏光的可能性, 可把彩膜基板上的 BM的线宽设计最小化, 以此来提高 像素开口率, 提高显示装置的透光效率。
备选地, 在数据信号线方向上也可将像素电极之间的空隙减少了, 或没 有了, 减少了带来漏光影响的区域, 进一步提高了开口率, 提高显示装置的 透光效率。
备选地, 不仅可以减少栅极扫描线方向上像素电极之间的空隙, 而且还 可以减少数据信号线方向上像素电极之间的空隙。这样,在栅极扫描线方向, 相邻的像素区上覆盖的像素电极之间没有空隙或者空隙被减少, 同时, 数据 信号线方向上相邻像素电极之间的空隙减少了, 或没有了, 从而, 减少了带 来漏光影响的区域, 提高了开口率。 发明的精神和范围。 这样, 倘若本发明的这些修改和变型属于本发明权利要 求及其等同技术的范围之内, 则本发明也意图包含这些改动和变型在内。
