背景技术
柔性显示(Flexible Display)技术在近十年有了飞速地发展,由此带动柔性显示器的屏幕尺寸和显示质量都取得了很大进步。柔性显示器,又称为可卷曲显示器,是由采用柔性材料制成的可视柔性面板构成的可弯曲变形的显示装置。无论是濒临消失的CRT(Cathode Ray Tube,阴极射线管)显示器,还是现今主流的LCD(Liquid Crystal Display,液晶显示器),本质上都属于传统的刚性显示器。与普通的刚性显示器相比,柔性显示器具有诸多优点,例如:耐冲击,抗震能力更强;重量轻、体积小,携带更加方便;采用类似于报纸印刷工艺的卷带式工艺,成本更加低廉等。

可选地,在约25摄氏度至约90摄氏度的温度下对所述聚二甲基硅氧烷层进行固化。
可选地,在所述粘结层上形成柔性衬底基板的步骤之前还包括:将形成有所述粘结层的载体基板放入氧等离子体环境中进行活化处理,以达到清洁粘结层表面的目的,使得粘结层与柔性衬底基板之间有更好的粘附性。
可选地,所述柔性衬底基板的材料可以为聚对苯二甲酸乙二醇酯、聚醚砜树脂和聚酰亚胺中的至少一种,所述柔性衬底基板的厚度例如可以为约10微米至约300微米。
可选地,在约100摄氏度至约150摄氏度的温度下,将制备有显示器件的柔性衬底基板从形成有所述粘结层的载体基板上分离下来。例如,在约100摄氏度的温度下,将制备有显示器件的柔性衬底基板从形成有所述粘结层的载体基板上分离下来。
可选地,通过机械方式将制备有显示器件的柔性衬底基板从形成有所述粘结层的载体基板上分离下来。
下面结合附图以及具体的实施例对本申请的柔性显示基板的制作方法进行详细介绍:
聚二甲基硅氧烷(PDMS)是一种高分子有机硅化合物,通常被称为有机硅,它具有光学透明性,且在一般情况下,被认为是惰性、无毒的。PDMS不仅能与其自身、硅、玻璃等形成不可逆接触,也可以与自身、硅、玻璃以及氧化型多聚物等形成可逆接触。比如用氧等离子体对玻璃进行表面处理,在玻璃表面形成Si-O键,之后具有所述Si-O键的玻璃表面旋涂聚二甲基硅氧烷溶液,以形成的聚二甲基硅氧烷层并进行固化,这样能够使所述聚二甲基硅氧烷与所述玻璃表面的Si-O键反应形成O-Si-O键,从而形成所述玻璃与所述聚二甲基硅氧烷层之间的不可逆接触;如果不对玻璃进行表面处理,直接将在所述玻璃表面形成聚二甲基硅氧烷层,则所述玻璃与所述聚二甲基硅氧烷之间将形成可逆接触。
利用PDMS这一特性,本实施例采用PDMS作为载体基板与柔性衬底基 板之间的粘结层。
具体地,如图2所示,在本实施例中,制作柔性显示基板的方法包括以下步骤:
步骤21:提供载体基板1,用氧等离子体对载体基板1进行表面处理,在载体基板1表面形成Si-O键;
具体地,该载体基板1可以为玻璃基板、石英基板或硅片;
步骤22:在处理后的载体基板1表面旋涂一层PDMS,并对形成的PDMS层进行固化,以形成粘结层2,由于载体基板1表面形成有Si-O键,PDMS可与Si-O键反应形成稳固的O-Si-O键,因此在PDMS固化之后,形成的粘结层2可以与载体基板1形成永久性结合,即不可逆接触;由于粘结层2与载体基板1之间为不可逆接触,柔性衬底基板3与粘结层2之间为可逆接触,因此在分离柔性衬底基板3时,粘结层2仍然会与载体基板1牢固结合在一起,不会被同时分离下来,不会导致分离下来的柔性显示基板3上连带有粘结层2。
具体地,可以在约摄氏度25至约90摄氏度的温度下对PDMS层进行固化,环境温度越高,固化需要的时间越短,例如,可以在60摄氏度的温度下对PDMS层固化两小时;
步骤23:对形成有粘结层2的载体基板1表面进行清洁,这样后续在粘结层2上形成柔性衬底基板3时,可以使得粘结层2与柔性衬底基板3之间有更好的粘附性;
具体地,可以将形成有粘结层2的载体基板1放入氧等离子体环境中进行活化处理以达到清洁粘结层2表面的目的;
步骤24:在粘结层2上形成柔性衬底基板3;
柔性衬底基板3的材料可以采用聚酰亚胺(PI),具体地,可以在粘结层2的表面旋涂聚酰亚胺溶液,固化之后形成柔性衬底基板3,柔性衬底基板3与粘结层2之间为可逆接触,柔性衬底基板3的厚度可以为约10微米至约300微米。
如果需要形成的柔性衬底基板3的厚度比较大,可以在粘结层2上多次旋涂聚酰亚胺,以形成柔性衬底基板3,柔性衬底基板3的热膨胀系数与粘结层2的热膨胀系数不同;
步骤25:在柔性衬底基板上制备显示器件4,形成如图3所示的结构;
步骤26:在加热条件下,具体地,可以将经过上述步骤25的载体基板1 放置在温度为约100摄氏度至约150摄氏度的加热台上,之后将制备有显示器件4的柔性衬底基板3从形成有粘结层2的载体基板1上分离下来,得到柔性显示基板。由于PDMS与PI两者的热膨胀系数不同,因此在加热的条件下,很容易利用热应力使粘结层2和柔性衬底基板3分离。例如,采用机械方式将粘结层2和柔性衬底基板3分离,比如可以采用镊子将柔性衬底基板3从形成有粘结层2的载体基板1上剥离下来。
本实施例首先在所述载体基板1上形成能够与载体基板1永久结合的粘结层2,在粘结层2上形成柔性衬底基板3,并在柔性衬底基板3上制备显示器件4,之后在加热条件下,根据柔性衬底基板3与粘结层2的接触为可逆的且柔性衬底基板3的热膨胀系数与粘结层2的热膨胀系数不同这些特性,利用热应力将柔性衬底基板3从粘结层2上分离下来,这种分离柔性显示基板的方法可以简化柔性显示基板的制作工艺,降低柔性显示基板的制作成本,并且不会对柔性显示基板的性能产生影响,提高了柔性显示基板的成品率。
本申请实施例还提供了一种柔性显示基板母板,如图3所示,包括:
载体基板1;
形成在载体基板1上的粘结层2,其中粘结层2与载体基板1为不可逆接触;
形成在粘结层2上的柔性衬底基板3,其中柔性衬底基板3与粘结层2为可逆接触;
形成在柔性衬底基板3上的显示器件4。
可选地,柔性衬底基板3的热膨胀系数与粘结层2的热膨胀系数不同。具体地,粘结层2的材料为聚二甲基硅氧烷。
利用本申请的柔性显示基板母板可以制备柔性显示基板,由于粘结层2与载体基板1之间为不可逆接触,柔性衬底基板3与粘结层2之间为可逆接触,因此可以比较容易将柔性衬底基板3从粘结层2上分离下来,得到柔性显示基板3。这种分离柔性显示基板的方法可以简化柔性显示基板的制作工艺,降低柔性显示基板的制作成本,并且不会对柔性显示基板的性能产生影响,提高了柔性显示基板的成品率。
以上所述是本申请的优选实施方式,应当指出,对于本技术领域的普通技术人员来说,在不脱离本申请所述原理的前提下,还可以作出若干改进和润饰,这些改进和润饰也应视为本申请的保护范围。
