具体实施方式
为使本公开的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚,下面将结合附图对本公开实施方式作进一步地详细描述。
本公开实施例提供了一种掩膜板,参见图1,该掩膜板包括:对应阵列基板GOA区域的第一区域1和对应阵列基板显示区域的第二区域2。
第一区域1具有至少一个第一开口11,至少一个第一开口11用于在阵列基板GOA区域形成栅绝缘层GI过孔,该GI过孔用于暴露出栅线;第二区域2具有至少一个第二开口21,至少一个第二开口21为半色调掩膜开口,至少一个第二开口用于在阵列基板显示区域形成VIA过孔。
在本公开的实施例中,该掩膜板上包括至少一个第一开口和至少一个第二开口,通过第一开口可以在阵列基板GOA区域形成GI过孔,通过第二开口可以在阵列基板显示区域形成VIA过孔,也即是,将形成GOA区域GI过孔的第一开口和形成显示区域VIA过孔的第二开口制作在同一个掩膜板上,两种过孔采用同一块掩膜板形成,降低了产品的制造成本。
需要说明的是,在本公开实施例中,半色调掩模开口是指不完全透光的开口,在实际应用的过程中,可以根据需要通过在完全透光的开口中加装滤光结构实现半色调的掩模,具体地说,将至少一个第二开口21设置为半色调掩膜开口,当通过该掩膜板形成GOA区域的GI过孔时,不会对阵列基板中显示区域的栅绝缘层产生影响。另外,在本公开的实施例中,阵列基板的显示区域为该阵列基板中的有效显示区域,也即是该阵列基板中的透光区域。
在一些实施方式中,参见图2,该掩膜板还包括:对应阵列基板IC Pad(英文:Integrated Circuit Pad;中文:集成电路接口)区域的第三区域3。
第三区域3具有至少一个第三开口31,至少一个第三开口31为半色调掩膜开口,且至少一个第三开口31用于在阵列基板IC Pad区域形成VIA过孔。
在阵列基板中不仅可以形成GOA区域的GI过孔和显示区域的VIA过孔,还可以形成IC Pad区域的VIA过孔。GOA区域的GI过孔用于暴露出栅线,并将GOA区域的栅线与源漏金属层连接,显示区域的VIA过孔用于暴露出源漏金属层的图案,并将显示区域的TFT的漏极与像素电极连接,IC Pad 区域的VIA过孔也用于暴露出源漏金属层的图案,因此,基于与显示区域VIA过孔同样的理由,将用于形成IC Pad区域的VIA过孔的第三开口设置为半色调掩膜开口,并且将用于形成IC Pad区域VIA过孔的第三开口也制作在同一掩膜板上,进一步降低了产品的制造成本。
在一些实施方式中,该掩膜板还包括:对应阵列基板信号线区域的第四区域4。
第四区域4具有至少一个第四开口41,至少一个第四开口41用于形成阵列基板信号线区域的GI过孔。
在阵列基板中不仅可以形成GOA区域的GI过孔、显示区域的VIA过孔和IC Pad区域的VIA过孔,还可以形成信号线区域的GI过孔。而信号线区域的GI过孔用于暴露出栅线,因此,将用于形成信号线区域GI过孔的第四开口也制作在同一掩膜板上,进一步降低了产品的制造成本。
需要说明的是,该掩膜板上的至少一个第一开口不仅可以形成阵列基板GOA区域的GI过孔,还可以形成GOA区域的其他过孔,本公开实施例对此不做具体限定。同理,该掩膜板上的至少一个第二开口不仅可以形成阵列基板显示区域的VIA过孔,还可以形成显示区域的其他过孔;该掩膜板上的至少一个第三开口不仅可以形成阵列基板的IC Pad区域的VIA过孔,还可以形成IC Pad区域的其他过孔;该掩膜板上的至少一个第四开口也不仅可以形成阵列基板的信号线区域的GI过孔,还可以形成信号线区域的其他过孔,本公开实施例同样对此不做具体限定。
上述所有可选技术方案,均可按照任意结合形成本公开的可选实施例,本公开实施例对此不再一一赘述。
本公开实施例提供了一种阵列基板的制造方法,采用上述实施例的掩膜板,参见图3,该方法包括:
步骤301:在透明基板上形成栅线的图案。
步骤302:在形成有栅线图案的基板上形成栅绝缘层。
步骤303:在栅绝缘层的表面,采用上述实施例的掩膜板,通过构图工艺在阵列基板GOA区域形成至少一个栅绝缘层GI过孔,该至少一个GI过孔用于贯穿栅绝缘层以暴露出栅线。
步骤304:在形成有至少一个GI过孔的基板表面依次形成有源层和源漏金属层的图案,在GOA区域,栅线与源漏金属层的图案在至少一个GI过孔位置处直接相连。
本公开在形成源漏金属层的图案时,同时也形成用于连接源极的数据线,因此,形成源漏金属层的图案,换句话说,形成包括数据线的源漏金属层的图案。
步骤305:在形成有有源层和源漏金属层的图案的基板上形成保护层。
步骤306:在保护层的表面,采用同一掩膜板,通过构图工艺在阵列基板显示区域形成至少一个VIA过孔,该至少一个VIA过孔用于贯穿保护层以暴露出源漏金属层的图案。
在本公开实施例中,在栅绝缘层上通过第一次构图工艺形成GOA区域的至少一个GI过孔,以贯穿GOA区域的栅绝缘层,将该至少一个GI过孔处的栅线暴露在外,并通过在GOA区域的至少一个GI过孔处的栅线上形成有源层和源漏金属层的图案,实现栅线与源漏金属层的图案的直接相连。另外,通过采用同一个掩膜板,分两次构图工艺,分别形成GOA区域的至少一个GI过孔和显示区域的至少一个VIA过孔,降低了产品的制作成本。
本公开实施例提供了一种阵列基板的制造方法,采用上述实施例的掩膜板,参见图4,该方法包括:
步骤401:在透明基板上形成栅线的图案。
具体地,在透明基板上形成栅极金属层,在栅极金属层上,通过构图工艺形成栅线的图案。
其中,栅极金属层用于形成栅线的图案,而在透明基板上形成栅极金属层时,可以通过沉积、涂覆或溅射的方式来形成。当然,实际应用中,还可 以通过其他的方式,本公开实施例对此不做具体限定。
另外,在栅极金属层上,通过构图工艺形成栅线图案的过程可以为:在栅极金属层的表面上涂覆光刻胶,采用用于形成栅线图案的掩膜板,对涂覆光刻胶的基板进行曝光,使用显影液,对曝光后的基板进行显影,进而在涂覆光刻胶的基板上形成与用于形成栅线图案的掩膜板相对应的图形,之后,再使用刻蚀液,对显影后的基板进行刻蚀,最后剥离光刻胶,从而形成栅线的图案。
需要说明的是,本公开实施例中,在透明基板上形成栅线图案的方法可以参考现有技术中在透明基板上形成栅线图案的方法,本公开实施例对此不再赘述。
步骤402:在形成有栅线图案的基板上形成栅绝缘层。
栅绝缘层用于对透明基板上形成的栅线图案进行保护,且在形成有栅线图案的基板上形成栅绝缘层时,也可以通过沉积、涂覆或溅射的方式来形成。当然,实际应用中,还可以通过其他的方式,本公开实施例同样对此不做具体限定。
比如,在透明基板上形成栅线图案的基板结构可以如图5所示,在图5中,51用于指示透明基板,52用于指示栅线的图案,在图5所示形成有栅线图案的基板上形成栅绝缘层53,如图6所示。
步骤403:在栅绝缘层的表面,采用上述实施例的掩膜板,通过构图工艺在阵列基板GOA区域形成至少一个GI过孔,该至少一个GI过孔用于贯穿栅绝缘层以暴露出栅线。
具体地,在栅绝缘层的表面上涂覆光刻胶;采用上述实施例的掩膜板,对涂覆光刻胶的基板进行曝光;对曝光后的基板进行显影和刻蚀,形成阵列基板GOA区域的至少一个GI过孔。其中,对曝光后的基板进行显影时,可以通过显影液进行显影,对显影之后的基板进行刻蚀时,可以通过刻蚀液进行刻蚀。
由于上述实施例中掩膜板的第一区域中具有至少一个第一开口,第二区域中具有至少一个第二开口,且至少一个第二开口是半色调掩膜开口,所以,采用该掩膜板对涂覆光刻胶的基板进行曝光时,至少一个第一开口对应的光刻胶可以完全被感光,而至少一个第二开口对应的光刻胶在厚度方向上只有一部分被感光,因此,使用显影液对曝光后的基板进行显影时,至少一个第一开口对应的光刻胶可以完全溶解在显影液中,而至少一个第二开口对应的光刻胶中的感光部分会溶解在显影液中,未感光部分还位于该基板上,并且一般情况下,感光部分的厚度较小,未感光部分的厚度较大,因此,后续对显影之后的基板进行刻蚀时,不会对基板上至少一个第二开口对应位置处产生影响,确保GOA区域的至少一个GI过孔和显示区域的至少一个VIA过孔均可以采用该掩膜板。
在一些实施方式中,如附图2所示,由于掩膜板上不仅包括用于形成GOA区域GI过孔的至少一个第一开口,还包括用于形成信号线区域GI过孔的至少一个第四开口,因此,在栅绝缘层上,采用上述实施例的掩膜板,通过构图工艺在阵列基板GOA区域形成至少一个GI过孔时,还形成阵列基板信号线区域的至少一个GI过孔。也即是,在栅绝缘层的表面,采用掩膜板,通过构图工艺在阵列基板GOA区域形成至少一个GI过孔的工序包括:在栅绝缘层的表面,采用同一掩膜板,通过构图工艺分别形成位于阵列基板GOA区域的至少一个GI过孔以及位于阵列基板信号线区域的至少一个GI过孔。在形成GOA区域的至少一个GI过孔的同时,还形成信号线区域的至少一个GI过孔,缩短了阵列基板的制造周期,进而也降低了阵列基板的制造成本。
需要说明的是,形成阵列基板信号线区域的至少一个GI过孔的工艺与上述形成GOA区域的至少一个GI过孔的工艺相同,本公开实施例对此不再赘述。
基于上述步骤的例子,在图6所示的栅绝缘层上,采用掩膜板,通过构图工艺在阵列基板GOA区域形成至少一个GI过孔54,如图7所示。
步骤404:在形成有至少一个GI过孔的基板表面依次形成有源层和源漏金属层的图案,在GOA区域,栅线与源漏金属层的图案在至少一个GI过孔位置处直接相连。
由于阵列基板显示区域中还包括有源层,该有源层位于栅绝缘层之上,且位于源漏金属层之下,因此,在形成有至少一个GI过孔的基板表面需要形成有源层。又由于阵列基板GOA区域中不包括有源层,因此,在形成有至少一个GI过孔的基板表面形成有源层时,在至少一个GI过孔处可以不形成有源层,而对于GOA区域形成的有源层,可以进行剥离。之后,在形成有源层的基板表面形成源漏金属层,在源漏金属层上,通过构图工艺,形成源漏金属层的图案。在GOA区域,栅线与源漏金属层的图案在至少一个GI过孔位置处直接相连,避免出现连接不良的现象,从而提高栅线与源漏金属层的连接稳定性。
其中,在源漏金属层上形成源漏金属层图案的构图工艺与上述步骤401中,在栅极金属层上形成栅线图案的构图工艺相似,本公开实施例对此不再赘述。另外,本公开实施例中,在形成有源漏金属层的基板上形成源漏金属层图案的方法可以参考现有技术中在形成有源漏金属层的基板上形成源漏金属层图案的方法,本公开实施例同样对此不再赘述。
其中,源漏金属层的图案包括数据线与TFT的源极以及漏极。
基于上述步骤的例子,如图8所示,在形成有至少一个GI过孔54的基板表面依次形成有源层和源漏金属层的图案55之后,图8中的至少一个GI过孔54位置处的栅线与源漏金属层的图案直接相连。
步骤405:在形成有有源层和源漏金属层的图案的基板上形成保护层。
保护层用于对基板上形成的源漏金属层图案进行保护,且在形成有源漏金属层图案的基板上形成保护层时,也可以通过沉积、涂覆或溅射的方式来形成。当然,实际应用中,还可以通过其他的方式,本公开实施例同样对此不做具体限定。
基于上述步骤的例子,在图8所示形成有源漏金属层图案55的基板上形成保护层56,如图9所示。
步骤406:在保护层的表面,采用同一掩膜板,通过构图工艺在阵列基板显示区域形成至少一个VIA过孔,该至少一个VIA过孔用于贯穿保护层以暴露出源漏金属层的图案。
具体地,在保护层的表面上涂覆光刻胶;采用上述实施例的掩膜板,对涂覆光刻胶的基板进行曝光;对曝光后的基板进行显影、灰化和刻蚀,形成阵列基板显示区域的至少一个VIA过孔。其中,对曝光后的基板进行显影时,可以通过显影液进行显影,对显影之后的基板进行刻蚀时,可以通过刻蚀液进行刻蚀。
由于上述实施例中掩膜板的第一区域中具有至少一个第一开口,第二区域中具有至少一个第二开口,且至少一个第二开口是半色调掩膜开口,所以,采用该掩膜板,对涂覆光刻胶的基板进行曝光时,该基板中,至少一个第一开口对应的光刻胶可以完全被感光,而至少一个第二开口对应的光刻胶在厚度方向上只有一部分被感光,因此,使用显影液对曝光后的基板进行显影时,至少一个第一开口对应的光刻胶可以完全溶解在显影液中,而至少一个第二开口对应的光刻胶中的感光部分会溶解在显影液中,未感光部分还位于该基板上。因此,通过灰化工艺,可以将至少一个第二开口对应的光刻胶中未感光部分去除。之后,再通过刻蚀工艺,对基板进行刻蚀,从而可以形成阵列基板显示区域的至少一个VIA过孔。
至少一个第二开口是半色调掩膜开口,因此,在显影之后,增加灰化工艺,可以有效去除至少一个第二开口对应的光刻胶,进而可以确保形成显示区域的至少一个VIA过孔。
使用显影液对曝光后的基板进行显影时,至少一个第一开口对应的光刻胶完全溶解在显影液中,因此,通过刻蚀工艺,对基板进行刻蚀时,至少一个第一开口对应位置的保护层也会被刻穿,所以,在保护层的表面,采用该 掩膜板,通过构图工艺在阵列基板显示区域形成至少一个VIA过孔时,还在保护层的对应栅线与源漏金属层的图案直接相连的区域形成过孔。之后,再在保护层对应栅线与源漏金属层的图案直接相连区域的过孔处,源漏金属层的图案上形成透明电极的图案。
由于源漏金属层用于GOA区域的信号输出,因此,在该过孔处的源漏金属层的图案上形成透明电极图案之后,可以通过透明电极的图案对源漏金属层图案的信号进行测试,以确保GOA区域的信号输出正常。
需要说明的是,在本公开实施例中,透明电极可以为ITO(英文:Indium Tin Oxide;中文:氧化铟锡)电极,当然,还可以为其他电极,本公开实施例对此不做具体限定。
基于上述步骤的例子,如图10所示,形成有保护层56的基板上,在保护层56对应栅线与源漏金属层的图案直接相连区域处形成过孔57。在该过孔57处的源漏金属层图案上形成透明电极的图案58,如图11所示。
在一些实施方式中,由于掩膜板上不仅包括用于形成显示区域VIA过孔的至少一个第二开口,还包括用于形成IC Pad区域VIA过孔的至少一个第三开口,因此,在保护层上,采用该掩膜板,通过构图工艺在阵列基板显示区域形成至少一个VIA过孔时,还形成阵列基板IC Pad区域的至少一个VIA过孔。也即是,在保护层的表面,采用该掩膜板,通过构图工艺在阵列基板显示区域形成至少一个VIA过孔的工序包括:在保护层的表面,采用该同一掩膜板,通过构图工艺分别形成位于阵列基板显示区域的至少一个VIA过孔以及位于阵列基板集成电路接口IC Pad区域的至少一个VIA过孔。在形成显示区域的至少一个VIA过孔的同时,还形成IC Pad区域的至少一个VIA过孔,缩短了阵列基板的制造周期,进而也降低了阵列基板的制造成本。
需要说明的是,形成阵列基板IC Pad区域的至少一个VIA过孔的工艺与上述形成显示区域的至少一个VIA过孔的工艺相同,本公开实施例对此不再赘述。
在本公开实施例中,在栅绝缘层上通过第一次构图工艺形成GOA区域的至少一个GI过孔,以贯穿GOA区域的栅绝缘层,将该至少一个GI过孔处的栅线暴露在外,并通过在GOA区域的至少一个GI过孔处的栅线上形成有源层和源漏金属层的图案,实现栅线与源漏金属层的图案的直接相连。另外,通过采用同一个掩膜板,分两次构图工艺,分别形成GOA区域的至少一个GI过孔和显示区域的至少一个VIA过孔,降低了产品的制作成本。
以上所述仅为本公开的较佳实施例,并不用以限制本公开,凡在本公开的精神和原则之内,所作的任何修改、等同替换、改进等,均应包含在本公开的保护范围之内。
