Further, it is necessary to reduce the frame area in response to the demand for a narrow frame, for example, to reduce the areas of the scanning common wiring 10b itself and the auxiliary capacitance line 11d itself.

Description
本願は、2014年4月8日に、日本に出願された特願2014-079514号に基づき優先権を主張し、その内容をここに援用する。
以下、本発明の第1実施形態について、図1~図6を用いて説明する。
本実施形態では、表示装置として、アクティブマトリクス基板を備えた液晶表示装置の一例を挙げる。
なお、以下の各図面においては各構成要素を見やすくするため、構成要素によって寸法の縮尺を異ならせて示すことがある。
図1は、アクティブマトリクス型の液晶表示装置の斜視図である。
図1に示すように、液晶表示装置50は、例えば、互いに対向するように設けられたアクティブマトリクス基板100および対向基板150と、アクティブマトリクス基板100と対向基板150との間に挟持された液晶層(図示せず)と、を備えている。液晶表示装置50には、画像表示を行う表示領域1と、表示領域1の周囲を囲む額縁領域2と、がそれぞれ設けられている。
図2に示すように、アクティブマトリクス基板100は、例えば、矩形状の表示領域1において、互いに平行に延びるように設けられた複数の走査線10aと、各走査線10aと直交する方向に互いに平行に延びるように設けられた複数の信号線11aとを備えている。
そこで、TFTや配線が破壊されることを防止するため、アクティブマトリクス基板100は、以下に説明する保護回路30を備えている。
本実施形態の「保護ダイオード6」は、特許請求の範囲の「保護素子」に相当する。
図4Aは、図3のI-IIに沿う断面図である。
図3および図4Aにおいては、半導体層13aの上層側(図4Aの上方向)に走査線10aを配置する方式のTFTであるトップゲートTFTを図示している。
以下、図3と図4Aとを参照して、アクティブマトリクス基板100の製造方法について記述する。
まず、ガラス基板などの透明基板40上に、例えば、CVD(Chemical Vapor Deposition)法により、窒化シリコン膜、酸化シリコン膜またはそれらの積層膜などを厚さ50nm程度で成膜して、下地膜12を形成する。
続いて、下地膜12が形成された基板全体に、例えば、CVD法により、真性アモルファスシリコン膜を厚さ50nm程度で成膜する。その後、レーザー光照射などのアニール処理により真性アモルファスシリコン膜を多結晶化し、ポリシリコン膜を形成する。そのポリシリコン膜に対して、フォトリソグラフィ処理、エッチング処理およびレジストの剥離処理を行うことにより、半導体層13aなどを形成する。
さらに、ゲート絶縁膜14が形成された基板全体に、例えば、スパッタリング法により、タングステン膜などの金属膜を厚さ300nm程度で成膜する。その後、その金属膜に対して、フォトリソグラフィ処理、エッチング処理およびレジスト剥離処理を行うことにより、走査線10a、走査共通配線10b、および、その他のゲート配線10cなどを形成する。
さらに、半導体層13aのチャネル領域、ソース領域およびドレイン領域が形成された基板全体に、例えば、CVD法により、窒化シリコン膜、酸化シリコン膜またはそれらの積層膜などの無機絶縁膜を厚さ700[nm]程度で成膜する。その後、その無機絶縁膜およびその下層のゲート絶縁膜14に対して、フォトリソグラフィ処理、エッチング処理およびレジスト剥離処理を行うことにより、コンタクトホール16a,16b,16c,16d,16eなどを有する層間絶縁膜15を形成する。
以上の工程により、アクティブマトリクス基板100を製造することができる。
まず、ガラス基板などの透明基板の基板全体に、例えば、スピンコート法またはスリットコート法により、黒色に着色された感光性樹脂を塗布する。その後、その塗布膜を露光および現像することにより、ブラックマトリクスを厚さ1μm程度に形成する。
以上の工程により、対向基板150を製造することができる。
例えば、上記の対向基板製造工程で製造された対向基板150の表面に、UV(紫外線)硬化および熱硬化の併用型樹脂などからなるシール材を枠状に印刷する。その後、シール材の内側に液晶材料を滴下する。
続いて、液晶材料が滴下された対向基板150と、上記のアクティブマトリクス基板製造工程で製造されたアクティブマトリクス基板100とを、減圧雰囲気下で貼り合わせ、その後、大気圧に開放する。
さらに、貼り合わせた状態にて、シール材にUV光を照射した後、加熱することによりシール材を硬化させる。
以上の工程により、図1に示すアクティブマトリクス型の液晶表示装置50を製造することができる。
上述したように、例えばアクティブマトリクス基板100の製造工程におけるフォトリソグラフィ処理などにおいて、ガラス基板と他の部材との接触、摩擦、剥離などが頻繁に発生する。そのため、半導体層13a、走査線10a、および信号線11aなどへの電荷の蓄積は避けられない。この場合、前述したように、静電気によるTFTや配線の破壊を引き起こす場合がある。
q×Sai[c](i=1,2,…,m) …(式1)
q×Sbj[c](j=1,2,…,n) …(式2)
Qa≒Σ(q×Sai)=q×ΣSai[c](i=1,2,…,m) …(式3)
Qb≒Σ(q×Sbj)=q×ΣSbj[c](j=1,2,…,n) …(式4)
ΔQ≒|Qa-Qb|=q×|ΣSai-ΣSbj|
となる。このとき、ΔQが過大になった場合、静電気による破壊現象が発生すると考えられる。
ΣSai=ΣSbj(i=1,2,…,m)(j=1,2,…,n) …(式5)となる。
[第1実施形態]
以下、第1実施形態の液晶表示装置について、図5、図6を用いて説明する。
第1実施形態の液晶表示装置の基本構成は図3、図4A及び図4Bを用いて説明した通りであるが、保護回路に係わる構成が図3、図4A及び図4Bと異なる。
図5、図6において、基本構成の説明で用いた図3、図4A及び図4Bと共通の構成要素には同一の符号を付して、その詳細な説明を省略する。
図5が図3と異なる点は、走査共通配線10bと保護ダイオード6を構成する保護TFT6bとを電気的に接続する複数の接続配線のうちの一部の接続配線に、信号線11aと同層で構成される接続配線11eを使用する点である。
図6に示すように、走査共通配線10bと保護TFT6bのゲート10gとを電気的に接続する接続配線11eは、信号線11aと同層で構成されている。このように、走査共通配線10bと保護TFT6bとを電気的に接続する複数の接続配線のうちの一部の接続配線11eは、信号線11aと同層の配線で構成されている。また、複数の接続配線のうちの残りの接続配線10fは、図3に示した比較例と同様、走査共通配線10bと一体の配線で構成されている。例えば、図5には3個の保護ダイオード6が示されているが、左端の保護ダイオード6の接続配線11eは、信号線11aと同層の配線で構成されている。中央および右端の保護ダイオード6の接続配線10fは、走査共通配線10bと一体の配線で構成されている。
その値をSa[μm2]とする。(式5)の右辺のSbj[μm2]は、j個目の保護TFT6bの半導体層13aに関する値である。この値は、保護TFT6bの性能、製造プロセスなどの制約で決まるため、全ての保護TFT6bに対して同一の値である。その値をSb[μm2]とする。(式5)のm[個]は、1本の島状に独立した走査線10aに対して、電気的に接続された画素TFT5の個数を表す。n[個]は、1本の島状に独立した走査共通配線10bに対して、保護回路形成前の時点、具体的には、信号線11aの形成前の時点で電気的に接続された保護TFT6bの個数を表す。
ΣSai=ΣSbj(i=1,2,…,m)(j=1,2,…,n’)
→ m×Sa=n’×Sb
→ n’=(m×Sa)/Sb[個] …(式6)
となる。
(式6)より、
n’=(2400×52.25)/244≒513.9[個]
となる。
したがって、保護回路30が形成されるまで、1本の島状に独立した走査共通配線10bに対して、電気的に接続された保護TFT6bの個数を、ΔQが最小値になる値として、514[個]にすればよい。
その理由は、以下の通りである。
Qg=Cg×Vg[C] …(式7)
よって、画素TFT5のゲート絶縁膜14が破壊される電荷量の差ΔQgは、(式8)で表わされる。
ΔQg=2×Qg=2×Cg×Vg[C] …(式8)
ΔQg≒Σ(qg×Sai)=qg×ΣSai[C](i=1,2,…,m)
→ qg=ΔQg/ΣSai [C/μm2] …(式9)
Qi=Ci×Vi[C] …(式10)
よって、走査線10aとその隣接する配線、この場合、走査共通配線10bの間隔D1の層間絶縁膜15が破壊される電荷量の差ΔQiは、(式11)で表わされる。
ΔQi=2×Qi=2×Ci×Vi[C] …(式11)
ΔQi=qg×|ΣSai-ΣSbj|
→ |ΣSai-ΣSbj|=ΔQi/qg=(ΔQi×ΣSai)/ΔQg
…(式12)
ΔQg=2×Cg×Vg=4.00×10-12[C]
であり、(式9)より、
qg=ΔQg/ΣSai≒3.20×10-17[C/μm2]
となる。
ΔQi=2×Ci×Vi=8.00×10-13[C]
であり、(式12)より、
|ΣSai-ΣSbj|=(ΔQi×ΣSai)/ΔQg≒2.50×104[μm2]となる。
|ΣSai-ΣSbj|=|m×Sa-n’×Sb|<2.50×104 …(式13)であればよいから、m=2400[個]、Sa=52.25[μm2]、Sb=244[μm2]より、
411.5 < n’< 616.4
となる。
なお、補助容量線11dの配線幅C1は220[μm]に設定し、走査線10aと走査共通配線10bの間隔D1は10[μm]に設定する。
以下、第2実施形態の液晶表示装置について、図7、図8を用いて説明する。

本実施形態(図7、図8)がさらに基本構成(図3、図4A及び図4B)と異なる点は、保護回路30が形成される時点で、図8に示すように、コンタクトホール16iを介して、走査共通配線10bと中継配線11fとが電気的に接続され、コンタクトホール16hを介して、中継配線11fと半導体層13bとが電気的に接続される点である。すなわち、走査共通配線10bと半導体層13bとは、中継配線11fを介して電気的に接続される。
ΣSai=ΣSbj(i=1,2,…,m)(j=1,2,…,n)
→ m×Sa=n×Sb’
→ Sb’=(m×Sa)/n[μm2] …(式14)
となる。
(式14)により、
Sb’=(2400×52.25)/1280≒97.969[μm2]
となる。つまり、平面的に見て、1本の島状に独立した走査共通配線10bと重なる半導体層13bの各々の面積を、ΔQが最小値になる値として、97.97[μm2]にすればよい。
その理由は、以下の通りである。
|ΣSai-ΣSbj|=|m×Sa-n×Sb’|<2.50×104
であればよいから、m=2400[個]、Sa=52.25[μm2]、n=1280[個]より、
78.4 < Sb’< 117.5
となる。
平面的に見て、1本の島状に独立した走査共通配線10bと重なる半導体層13bの各々の面積Sb’の1辺の長さ(走査共通配線10bが延びる方向と垂直な方向の寸法)E1は、10.1[μm]に設定する。他の1辺の長さ(走査共通配線10bが延びる方向と平行な方向の寸法)E2は、9.7[μm]に設定する。

図9が図3と異なる点は、走査共通配線10bと保護TFT6bとを電気的に接続する複数の接続配線の全てに、信号線11aと同層の接続配線11eを用いている点、走査線10aと同層の補助容量線10dを用いている点、保護TFT用の半導体層13a(第1半導体層)と同層の複数の半導体層13c(第2半導体層)が設けられ、半導体層13cの一部が補助容量線10dと平面的に重なっている点、および、信号線11aと同層の中継配線11gが設けられ、中継配線11gの一部が補助容量線10dと平面的に重なっている点、である。
本実施形態(図9、図10)がさらに基本構成(図3、図4A及び図4B)と異なる点は、保護回路30が形成される時点で、図10に示すように、コンタクトホール16iを介して、補助容量線10dと中継配線11gとが電気的に接続され、コンタクトホール16hを介して、中継配線11gと半導体層13cとが電気的に接続される点である。すなわち、補助容量線10dと半導体層13cとは、中継配線11gを介して電気的に接続される。
なお、第2実施形態と同様、Sb’の値は例えば79~117[μm2]程度の値であってもよい。

本実施形態(図11、図12)がさらに基本構成(図3、図4A及び図4B)と異なる点は、保護回路30が形成される時点で、図12に示すように、コンタクトホール16iを介して、走査共通配線10bと中継配線11fとが電気的に接続され、走査共通配線10bを挟んで設けられた2個のコンタクトホール16hを介して、中継配線11fと半導体層13bとが電気的に接続される点である。すなわち、走査共通配線10bと半導体層13bとは、中継配線11fを介して電気的に接続される。
なお、第2実施形態と同様、Sb’の値は例えば79~117[μm2]程度の値であってもよい。
平面的に見て、1本の島状に独立した走査共通配線10bと重なる半導体層13bの各々の面積Sb’の1辺の長さ(走査共通配線10bが延びる方向と垂直な方向の寸法)G1は、15[μm]に設定する。他の1辺の長さ(走査共通配線10bが延びる方向と平行な方向の寸法)G2は、6.5[μm]に設定する。これにより、面積Sb’は97.5[μm2]となり、ΔQが最小値となる値、つまり、第2実施形態で計算した値である97.97[μm2]に近付けることができる。

→ Sb’=(m×Sa)/n[μm2] …(式14)
となる。
このとき、(式14)により、
Sb’=(2400×52.25)/2560≒48.984[μm2]
となる。
よって、平面的に見て、1本の島状に独立した補助容量線10dと重なる半導体層13bの各々の面積を、ΔQが最小値になる値として、48.98[μm2]になるように設計すればよい。
その理由は、以下の通りである。
|ΣSai-ΣSbj|=|m×Sa-n×Sb’|<2.50×104
であればよいから、m=2400[個]、Sa=52.25[μm2]、n=2×1280=2560[個]より、
39.2 < Sb’< 58.8
となる。
例えば、画素TFTと保護TFTを構成する各TFTの半導体材料は、シリコン等の14族元素の半導体、酸化物半導体等に変更することができる。さらに、各TFTの半導体材料の結晶性は、特に限定されず、単結晶、多結晶、非晶質、もしくは、微結晶であってもよい。なお、酸化物半導体は、インジウム(In)、ガリウム(Ga)、亜鉛(Zn)、アルミニウム(Al)およびシリコン(Si)からなる群より選ばれる少なくとも一種の元素と、酸素(O)とを含むことが好ましく、In、Ga、ZnおよびOを含むことがより好ましい。
また、画素TFTと保護TFTを構成する各TFTの形態は、トップゲート方式に特に限定されず、例えばボトムゲート方式等に適宜変更することができる。
