其中所述镀线模块212可以为蒸镀装置、溅镀装置等,而所述修补线材料可以为六羟基铬(Cr(CO)6)、六羟基钼(Mo(CO)6)、六羟基钨(W(CO)6)等,本实施例仅以六羟基钨为例进行说明。其中所述六羟基钨具有沸点T1和熔点T2,其中沸点T1为175摄氏度,熔点T2为170摄氏度。
在形成所述修补线40后,通过所述加热单元22对修补单元21形成的修补线40进行加热。其中本发明中的加热单元22优选为激光加热设备,其采用激光束加热方式,通过发射高能量集中激光束产生高温,以对所述修补线40进行高温加热。
其中所述加热单元22在所述修补线40表面产生的温度可达到一预设温度T3,所述预设温度T3接近修补线材料的熔点且低于修补线材料的沸点,如预设温度T3大于修补线材料的熔点T2且低于修补线材料的沸点T1。以修补线材料为六羟基钨为例,预设温度T3为170摄氏度左右且低于175摄氏度,如165摄氏度、170摄氏度、173摄氏度等,以使得所述修补线40表面能够熔化且不至于挥发。
其中在所述预设温度T3的加热下,构成所述修补线40的分子按照预设规则进行顺序排列,其中该预设规则使得分子按照某一方向有顺序的进行排列。请参阅图6,图6为加热后晶格的排列示意图,由所述分子构成的晶格41同样也按照预设规则进行顺序排列,进而使得所述修补线40表面的晶界42数量明显的减少,请参阅图7,图7为所述修补线40经所述加热单元22加热后表面晶界示意图。如此,可以极大的降低所述修补线40表面的电阻,使得信号能够顺利的传输,所述导线30的导电性能也得到提升。
请参阅图8,其为对所述修补线40加热后,所述修补线40表面裂缝的示意图。在通过所述加热单元22对所述修补线40高温加热后,所述修补线40表面的分子按照预设规则进行顺序排列,规则运动的分子可将所述修补线40表面的裂缝43填充,使得所述修补线40的表面相对均匀(请对比参阅图1E),改善了所述修补线40表面裂缝43较大的问题。如此,可以极大的降低所述修补线40表面的电阻,使得信号能够顺利的传输,所述导线30的导电性能也得到提升。
本发明的断线修补装置20,通过修补单元21对存在断线缺陷32的导线31进行修补,在所述断线缺陷32处形成修补线40,之后通过加热单元22对修补线40进行加热处理,使得构成所述修补线40的分子按照预设规则进行顺序排列,进而减少所述修补线40表面的晶界数量,且使得所述修补线40的表面均匀,降低了所述修补线40的电阻,提高了所述导线31信号传输的能力。
而且,由于本发明可以通过高温加热使得所述修补线40表面的分子进行顺序排列,降低了所述修补线的电阻,因此本发明可以修补一些断线缺陷较长的导线,譬如可以修复大于100微米(um)的断线缺陷。
图9为本发明中阵列基板的断线修补方法的较佳实施例的流程示意图。
步骤S901中,清除断线缺陷32两端的保护层以露出断线缺陷31的两端。其中所述断线缺陷32存在于导线31上,断线缺陷32的存在,使得所述导线31分为相互断开的第一导线33和第二导线34。
在具体实施过程中,可通过激光熔断装置清除断线缺陷32两端的保护层,该激光熔断装置采用高能量的激光熔断断线缺陷31的两端的保护层。
步骤S902中,采用修补线材料形成修补线40,以连接所述第一导线33与第二导线34,进而导通所述导线31。
在具体实施过程中,可以通过蒸镀、溅镀等方式形成所述修补线40。所述修补线材料可以为六羟基铬(Cr(CO)6)、六羟基钼(Mo(CO)6)、六羟基钨(W(CO)6)等。所述修补线材料具有沸点T1和熔点T2。譬如六羟基钨的沸点T1为175摄氏度,熔点T2为170摄氏度。
步骤S903中,对所述修补线40进行加热,以使得构成所述修补线40的分子按照预设规则进行顺序排列。在具体实施过程中,可以通过激光束加热设备对修补线40进行加热,该激光束加热设备产生的温度可达到一预设温度T3,所述预设温度T3接近修补线材料的熔点T2且低于修补线材料的沸点T1,如预设温度T3大于修补线材料的熔点T2且低于修补线材料的沸点T1。以修补线材料为六羟基钨为例,预设温度T3为170摄氏度左右且低于175摄氏度,如165摄氏度、170摄氏度、173摄氏度等,以使得所述修补线40能够熔化且不至于挥发。
关于该方法的具体的过程请参阅上文针对阵列基板的断线修补装置的详细描述,此处不再赘述。本发明对存在断线缺陷处形成修补线后,对修补线进行加热处理,使得构成修补线的分子按照预设规则进行顺序排列,进而减少所述修补线表面的晶界数量,且使得所述修补线的表面均匀,降低了所述修补线的电阻,提高了所述导线信号传输的能力。而且,降低了所述修补线的电阻,因此可修补一些断线缺陷较长的导线,譬如可以修复大于100微米(um)的断线缺陷。
综上所述,虽然本发明已以优选实施例揭露如上,但上述优选实施例并非用以限制本发明,本领域的普通技术人员,在不脱离本发明的精神和范围内,均可作各种更动与润饰,因此本发明的保护范围以权利要求界定的范围为准。
