Description

一种柔性基板及其制作方法、 以及显示装置
技术领域
本发明涉及柔性显示技术领域, 特别涉及柔性基板及其制作方 法、 以及利用该柔性基板的显示装置。
背景技术
随着电子信息技术的飞速发展以及消费者需求的越来越高,显示 器的品质和显示模式越来越受消费者关注。消费者已经不满足于单纯 的视觉感知, 还要求显示器更轻薄、 便携化、 个性化等。 显示器从厚 重的 CRT发展到薄型化的 LCD便是一个质的飞跃, 如今 LCD在诸如高 分辨率、 窄边框、 低功耗等的显示品质方面也有了很大的突破。 近年 来, 发展迅速的 3D、 触摸等功能受到了广大消费者的欢迎。 但是, LCD由于其液晶材料的固有特性而导致其具有响应速度慢、 对比度 低、视角小的缺陷,这在目前还难以突破。下一代 OLED( Organic Light Emitting Device )显示技术的出现引起了广泛的关注, 由于其具有显 示品质优、 无视角和对比度限制、 轻薄 (约 0.2mm )、 自主发光等优 点, 因此成为各大显示面板厂商争相开发的具有竟争力的显示技术。
此外, 传统的显示器都是平板显示器, 不可以随意弯曲。 未来的 趋势是希望在柔性体上呈现大量的信息, 即在柔性显示器上进行显 示, 也即实现柔性显示。 对于柔性显示器的官方定义为, 其显示屏和 模组在基板包装、 生产、 存储、 使用、 操作、 工序衔接、 搬运、 运输 等任何一个步骤中都可以实现机械弯曲的显示器装置 (引自 IEC TC110 WG8 X 实现柔性显示的关键在于提供柔性显示器, 提供柔性 显示器的关键在于釆用适当的基板技术、阵列技术和封装技术。目前, 可以实现柔性显示的显示器有 LCD、OLED、EPD(电子纸显示)、PDLC (聚合物分散液晶)、 和 ChLC (胆甾相液晶)模式的显示器, 显示器所 釆用的基板主要有超薄玻璃、 金属箔片、 塑料这三种形式的基板, 以 及显示器所釆用的阵列技术除传统的非晶硅技术之外还包括近些年 逐步发展的低温多晶硅 (LTPS )、 氧化物 ( Oxide )、 和有机薄膜晶体 管 (OTFT )技术。 对于 OLED模式的显示器而言, 由于 OLED器件对 水汽和氧气非常敏感, 并且很容易发生性能衰减, 因此必须对 OLED 器件进行封装, 主要釆用基板和薄膜封装(TFE )。
超薄玻璃基板对水汽和氧气的阻隔性能好, 且其透明性好, 但是 其对裂紋缺陷很敏感, 并且其抗冲击性和弯折性很差, 不易实现卷对 卷(mil to roll )的工艺, 而开发超薄可挠曲的玻璃很难实现。 金属箔 片基板具有阻隔水汽和氧气的功能, 且其耐高温、 低成本、 本身具有 延展性、 易于实现卷对卷工艺, 但是, 金属箔片表面粗糙 (粗糙度约 Ο.όμιη), 即使经过抛光处理后, 仍然需要镀上平坦化层, 这增加了基 板的厚度, 从而导致显示器的厚度增加。 塑料基板的柔韧性更好、 质 量更轻、 更耐冲击, 但是, 塑料基板不耐高温, 必须在很低的温度下 完成 TFT制程, 这会增加薄膜中的缺陷, 但是, 在高温下塑料的变形 量很大, 在高于玻璃化转变温度的温度下, 塑料的变形量严重增加, 而且塑料基板与薄膜之间的晶格匹配不如玻璃基板, 从而薄膜易脱 落。

图 1为本发明的实施例的柔性基板的结构示意图。
图 2为本发明的实施例的柔性基板中的纤维的一种正交方式分布 示意图。
图 3为本发明的实施例的柔性基板中的纤维的另外一种正交方式 分布示意图。
图 4为本发明的实施例的柔性基板的制作方法的流程图。
具体实施方式
下面结合附图和实施例,对本发明的具体实施方式作进一步详细 描述。 以下实施例仅用于对本发明进行说明, 但不构成对本发明的范 围的限制。
图 1为本发明的实施例的柔性基板的结构示意图。 如图 1所示, 本 实施例提供一种柔性基板, 其包括: 衬底 1 , 所述衬底上设有多层柔 性层 2, 相邻两层柔性层 2之间设有纤维铺层 3。 其中, 柔性层 2由树脂 类材料制成。
本实施例中, 在两层柔性层 2之间加设纤维铺层 3, 可有效防止 柔性层发生高温变形,能够降低应力且最大程度地提高基板上薄膜的 附着力, 并且提高了基板的弯曲和压缩强度。
具体的, 所述树脂类材料优选为树脂塑料。 其中, 树脂塑料优选 由例如聚酰亚胺、聚对萘二甲酸乙二醇酯或聚对苯二甲酸乙二醇酯制 成。 柔性层的厚度在几十微米的数量级。 图 2为本发明的实施例的柔性基板中的纤维的一种正交方式分布 示意图。 图 3为本发明的实施例的柔性基板中的纤维的另外一种正交 方式分布示意图。
参考图 2和图 3, 由于柔性显示器的柔性基板所要承受的机械力 主要为弯曲和压缩应力, 因此, 使得纤维铺层中的纤维按照 (0° , 90° )或者 (45° , -45° )的正交方式交错分布, 这样, 与其他交错方 式相比, 可最大程度地提高不同方向的弯曲和压缩性能。
其中, 纤维按照 (0° , 90° )的正交方式交错分布具体指的是: 一部分纤维按照平行于 X坐标轴的方向进行分布, 另一部分纤维按 照平行于 Y坐标轴的方向进行分布, 从而使得这两部分纤维呈 90° 的正交方式交错分布。
需要说明的是, 纤维按照 (45° , -45° )的正交方式交错分布具体 指的是: 一部分纤维按照与 X坐标轴呈 45° 夹角的方向进行分布, 另一部分纤维按照与 Y坐标轴呈 45° 夹角的方向进行分布, 从而使 得这两部分纤维呈 90° 的正交方式交错分布。
其中, 纤维优选地例如可以为玻璃纤维、 碳纤维。
优选地,所述纤维为圆束状。与纤维结构为其他形状的情况相比, 纤维结构为圆束状的情况下与柔性层(例如, 树脂类材料)接触的表 面积较大, 故纤维与柔性层的粘结强度较高, 柔性层固化后, 在纤维 方向上一定程度地限制了柔性层的高温变形,缩小了柔性层的高温变 形量。 从而, 提高了在基板上面生长的薄膜的粘附力, 减少了薄膜脱 落的可能性。
本发明提供的柔性基板由柔性层和纤维铺层共同形成,可有效防 止柔性层发生高温变形,能够降低应力且最大程度地提高基板上薄膜 的附着力, 并且提高了基板的弯曲和压缩强度。
图 4为本发明的实施例的柔性基板的制作方法的流程图。
如图 4所示, 本发明还提供了一种上述柔性基板的制作方法, 其 包括以下步骤。
步骤 SI , 在衬底上覆盖一层由树脂类材料制成的柔性层。
其中, 树脂类材料优选为树脂塑料, 树脂塑料的厚度在几十微米 的数量级, 而且, 树脂塑料优选由聚酰亚胺(PI )、 聚对萘二甲酸乙 二醇酯(PEN)、 聚对苯二甲酸乙二醇酯(PET)制成。
步骤 S2, 对柔性层进行预固化处理, 使其在衬底上具有一定的 形态和强度。
其中,预固化的固化时间为 80分钟至 150分钟、固化温度为 80°C 至 200。C。
步骤 S3, 在柔性层上覆盖一层纤维铺层, 所述纤维铺层由纤维 交错分布形成。
具体地,使得纤维铺层中的纤维按照(0° , 90° )或者 (45° , -45° ) 的正交方式交错分布, 这样, 与其他交错方式相比, 可最大程度地提 高不同方向的弯曲和压缩性能。
在相邻两层柔性层之间加设纤维铺层,可有效防止柔性层发生高 温变形, 能够降低应力且最大程度地提高基板上薄膜的附着力, 从而 提高基板的弯曲和压缩强度。
步骤 S4, 在所述纤维铺层上继续覆盖一层由树脂类材料制成的 柔性层。
步骤 S5, 重复步骤 S2~S4多次。
通常重复 S2~S4操作 2至 4次, 以提高柔性基板的强度。 重复 S2-S4操作的次数可以根据实际需求而定。
步骤 S6、 在完成步骤 5后, 对柔性基板抽真空, 并进行固化保 温处理。 其中, 固化时间为 60分钟至 120分钟。
对柔性基板抽真空, 并进行固化保温处理, 可以使其排出挥发组 分, 使多层复合的材料固化压实, 排掉柔性层 (例如, 树脂类材料) 内部的孔洞, 从而提高柔性基板的机械性能。 本发明提供的柔性基板的制作方法中, 由柔性层和纤维铺层共同 形成柔性基板, 可有效防止柔性层发生高温变形, 能够降低应力且最 大程度地提高基板上薄膜的附着力,并且提高了基板的弯曲和压缩强 度。
另外, 本发明还提供一种显示装置, 其包括上述的柔性基板。 该 显示装置可以为液晶面板、 电子纸、 OLED面板、 手机、 平板电脑、 电视机、 显示器、 笔记本电脑、 数码相框、 导航仪等任何具有显示功 能的产品或部件。
以上所述仅是本发明的优选实施方式, 应当指出, 对于本技术领 域的普通技术人员来说, 在不脱离本发明的技术原理的前提下, 还可 以做出许多改进和变型, 这些改进和变型也应视为本发明的保护范 围。
