Description

阵列基板及其制造方法、 显示装置 技术领域
本发明的实施例涉及一种阵列基板及其制造方法、 显示装置。 背景技术
随着薄 H莫晶体管液晶显示器 ( Thin film transistor liquid crystal display, TFT-LCD )产业的发展, TFT-LCD产品的竟争日趋激烈, 各厂家都在通过采 用新技术以降低产品的成本, 从而提高其产品在市场上的竟争力。 阵列基板 行驱动(Gate Driver on Array, GOA )技术就是这些新技术的典型代表。
GOA技术是将栅极(Gate )开关电路集成于阵列 (Array )基板上, 从 而可以省掉栅极驱动集成电路(Gate Driver IC )部分, 从材料成本和工艺步 骤两个方面可以达到降低产品成本的目的。 STV (数据进位信号)信号线由 于其走线仅与第一行(或前几行) GOA单元相连接, 一旦 STV信号线内产 生静电将无法像其它走线一样将电荷扩散, 如聚集电荷较大则易在第一个 GOA单元处爆发, 造成相关电学不良。
传统的 STV信号线的防静电结构是在 STV输入点之前接入电容器, 并 利用高电压下产生的崩溃电流将静电导走。如图 1所示,该电容器由形成 STV 信号线的栅金属层、形成 Vss信号线的源漏金属层以及栅绝缘层组成。 然而, 由于电容器具有存储电荷的特性, 而此特性又会导致在走线正常工作的状况 下产生信号衰减, 最终造成异常显示 ( Abnormal display ) 。 发明内容

根据本发明实施例的阵列基板可以为顶栅型结构也可以为底栅型结构。 在根据本发明实施例的阵列基板为顶栅型结构时, 第一导电图形可以由栅金 属层形成, 第二导电图形和 STV信号线可以由源漏金属层形成, 绝缘层可以 由栅绝缘层形成, 第一导电图形、 绝缘层和第二导电图形存在交叠区域以形 成存储电容, 并采用源漏金属层形成导电尖端。 在根据本发明实施例的阵列 基板为底栅型结构时, 第一导电图形可以由源漏金属层形成, 第二导电图形 和 STV信号线可以由栅金属层形成, 绝缘层可以由栅绝缘层形成, 第一导电 图形、 绝缘层和第二导电图形存在交叠区域以形成存储电容, 并采用栅金属 层形成导电尖端。
进一步地, 在根据本发明实施例的阵列基板中并不局限于采用栅绝缘层 形成存储电容的绝缘层, 只要处于第一导电图形和第二导电图形之间的绝缘 层均可以用以形成存储电容的绝缘层。
进一步地, 根据本发明实施例的阵列基板并不局限为水平电场型阵列基 板, 还可以为垂直电场型阵列基板, 只要能够在连接低电平电位的第一导电 图形和与 STV信号线同层的第二导电图形之间形成存储电容即可。
进一步地, 为了不增加构图工艺的次数, 在第一导电图形采用源漏金属 层形成时, 可以通过一次构图工艺同时形成所述第一导电图形和阵列基板的 源电极、 漏电极。 在第二导电图形、 所述导电尖端和所述 STV信号线采用栅 金属层形成时, 可以通过一次构图工艺同时形成所述第二导电图形、 所述导 电尖端、 所述 STV信号线和阵列基板的栅电极、 栅线。
进一步地, 以根据本发明实施例的阵列基板为底栅型结构为例, 所述制 造方法包括:
提供一基板; 通过第一次构图工艺, 在所述基板上形成由栅金属层组成的所述第二导 电图形、 所述导电尖端、 所述 STV信号线以及栅电极和栅线;
通过第二次构图工艺, 在经过所述第一次构图工艺的基板上形成栅绝缘 层和有源层图形;
通过第三次构图工艺, 在经过所述第二次构图工艺的基板上形成由源漏 金属层组成的所述第一导电图形、 源电极和漏电极。 优选的, 在该第三次构 图工艺中还形成数据线;
进一步的, 形成所需的存储电容和导电尖端之后, 还可以制作阵列基板 所需的像素电极, 包括:
通过第四次构图工艺, 在经过所述第三次构图工艺的基板上形成包括像 素电极过孔的绝缘层;
通过第五次构图工艺, 在所述绝缘层上形成由透明导电层组成的像素电 极, 所述像素电极通过所述像素电极过孔与所述漏电极相连接。
在根据本发明实施例的阵列基板中, 第一导电图形、 绝缘层与第二导电 图形存在有交叠区域以形成存储电容, STV信号线对应第二导电图形的位置 形成有朝向第二导电图形的导电尖端。 当显示装置正常工作时, STV信号线 上的电荷不会输入到存储电容中, 因而也不会造成异常显示。 当 STV信号线 上积累有较大静电时, 静电会通过导电尖端释放到第二导电图形上, 从而达 到静电释放的目的。 因此, 根据本发明实施例的阵列基板能够在不影响显示 效果的情况下, 有效释放 STV信号线上积累的静电。
下面结合附图 2-5对根据本发明实施例的阵列基板进行详细介绍。
图 2为在根据本发明实施例的阵列基板中 STV信号线的静电保护结构的 示意图。 如图 2所示, 连接低电平电位的 Vss信号线 1与第一导电图形 5连 接, 第二导电图形 3与第一导电图形 5用于形成存储电容, STV信号线 2与 第一 GOA单元 4连接。 与传统技术不同, STV信号线 2并不通过走线与第 二导电图形 3连接,而是在 STV信号线 2对应第二导电图形 3的位置设置导 电尖端 6,导电尖端 6的尖端朝向第二导电图形 3,并且在导电尖端 6和第二 导电图形 3之间存在一定距离。
进一步地, 为了优化静电释放的效率, 如图 3所示, 还可以在第二导电 图形 3对应 STV信号线 2的位置也设置导电尖端。与第二导电图形 3连接的 导电尖端的尖端朝向 STV信号线 2。
如图 4所示, 当显示装置正常工作时电荷不会输入到存储电容, STV信 号线 2上的电荷流向第一 GOA单元 4。 当 STV信号线上积累有较大静电的 时候, 如图 5所示, 静电会通过导电尖端 6释放到存储电容的下极板(即第 二导电图形 3 ) ,并通过存储电容使电荷流向连接低电平电位的 Vss信号线 1 , 从而达到静电释放的目的。
根据本发明实施例的阵列基板有效地利用尖端放电的性质,在 STV信号 线对应第二导电图形的位置形成朝向第二导电图形的导电尖端。 根据本发明 实施例的技术方案将导电尖端与存储电容相结合, 导电尖端的设置能够在加 强静电释放效果的同时又不会产生过多的 RC负载。当显示面板正常工作时, STV信号线上的电荷不会输入到存储电容中, 因而也不会造成异常显示。 当 STV信号线上积累有较大静电时, 静电会通过导电尖端释放到第二导电图形 上, 在通电状态下存储电容存储电荷后緩慢释放电荷, 在不通电状态下利用 高压使存储电容内产生崩溃电流将静电导走, 从而达到静电释放的目的。
本发明实施例还提供了一种显示装置, 包括如上所述的阵列基板。 该显 示装置可以为: 液晶面板、 电子纸、 OLED ( Organic Light Emitting Diode, 有机发光二极管) 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。
以上所述仅是本发明的示范性实施方式, 而非用于限制本发明的保护范 围, 本发明的保护范围由所附的权利要求确定。
