Description

黑色矩阵的制作方法 技术领域
本发明涉及显示技术领域,尤其涉及一种黑色矩阵的制作方法。
背景技术
随着显示技术的发展,液晶显示器(Liquid Crystal Display,LCD)等平面显示装置因具有高画质、省电、机身薄及应用范围广等优点,而被广泛的应用于手机、电视、个人数字助理、数字相机、笔记本电脑、台式计算机等各种消费性电子产品,成为显示装置中的主流。
现有市场上的液晶显示装置大部分为背光型液晶显示器,其包括液晶显示面板及背光模组(backlight module)。液晶显示面板的工作原理是在两片平行的玻璃基板当中放置液晶分子,两片玻璃基板中间有许多垂直和水平的细小电线,通过通电与否来控制液晶分子改变方向,将背光模组的光线折射出来产生画面。
通常液晶显示面板由彩膜(CF,Color Filter)基板、薄膜晶体管(TFT,Thin Film Transistor)阵列基板、夹于彩膜基板与薄膜晶体管阵列基板之间的液晶(LC,Liquid Crystal)及密封胶框(Sealant)组成,其成型工艺一般包括:前段阵列(Array)制程(薄膜、黄光、蚀刻及剥膜)、中段成盒(Cell)制程(TFT基板与CF基板贴合)及后段模组组装制程(驱动IC与印刷电路板压合)。其中,前段Array制程主要是形成TFT基板,以便于控制液晶分子的运动;中段Cell制程主要是在TFT基板与CF基板之间添加液晶;后段模组组装制程主要是驱动IC压合与印刷电路板的整合,进而驱动液晶分子转动,显示图像。
传统的液晶显示面板中,通常会在彩膜基板一侧制作一层黑色矩阵(BM,Black Matrix),用于分割相邻色阻,遮挡色彩的空隙,防止漏光或者混色;而将黑色矩阵制备在TFT阵列基板的技术叫做BOA(BM On Array,黑色矩阵贴附于阵列基板),BOA可以解决上下基板错位导致遮光区域不匹配的问题,这种对曲面显示器尤其有用。COA(Color filter On Array)技术是一种将原本制备于彩膜基板上的RGB色阻制备在TFT阵列基板上的技术,COA技术可以改善金属线上的信号延迟,提供面板开口率,改善面板显示品质。
图1为在彩膜基板上制作黑色矩阵后的示意图,如图1所示,黑色矩 阵200为彩膜基板100的第一道制程,因此在黑色矩阵的制备过程中无需参考前制程的对位标记(mark)。而在BOA架构的液晶显示面板中,由于黑色矩阵制作于TFT阵列基板一侧,在制备黑色矩阵之前,已经进行了其它图案的制程,因此在制备黑色矩阵时需要参考前制程的对位标记,但由于黑色矩阵具有较高的光密度值(OD,optical density),因此在涂布后对光罩对位标记的识别造成干扰,可能导致曝光机无法对位。如果要使用较低光密度值的黑色矩阵材料,可以增加涂布后对位标记的识别能力,但是黑色矩阵的遮光效果会受到严重影响。
图2为在TFT阵列基板上涂布黑色矩阵薄膜后的示意图,图3为图2所示的圆圈区域的横截面示意图,从图2、及图3中可以看出,在TFT阵列基板300上涂布黑色矩阵薄膜400后,所述黑色矩阵薄膜400将对位标记500完全覆盖掉,由于所述黑色矩阵薄膜400厚度的典型值为1μm,其对对位标记500形成覆盖后,减弱了对位标记500处与相邻区域的断差d1,因此即使使用轮廓探测的方法也很难识别出对位标记500的准确位置。
发明内容
本发明的目的在于提供一种黑色矩阵的制作方法,通过增加对位标记处与相邻区域的断差,在涂布黑色矩阵薄膜后,可以利用轮廓探测的方法来识别对位标记所在的位置,进行精确对位后,对黑色矩阵薄膜进行图形化,形成黑色矩阵的设计图形,解决了BOA架构中黑色矩阵的制备过程中对位标记难以识别的问题。

具体实施方式
为更进一步阐述本发明所采取的技术手段及其效果,以下结合本发明的优选实施例及其附图进行详细描述。
请参阅图4-10,本发明提供一种黑色矩阵的制作方法,包括如下步骤:
步骤1、如图4-5所示,提供基板1,所述基板1上设置有数个对位标记14;
具体的,所述基板1为TFT阵列基板。
优选的,所述基板1为矩形结构,所述对位标记14为四个,分别设置于矩形的四个角处。
优选的,所述对位标记14为十字形结构。
步骤2、如图6-7所示,在所述基板1上制作一有机光阻层,所述有机光阻层包括分别覆盖数个对位标记14的数个有机光阻块2。
具体的,所述有机光阻层包括4个有机光阻块2,所述有机光阻块2的形状与所述对位标记14相同,均为十字形结构,且所述有机光阻块2的尺寸与所述对位标记14的尺寸基本相同。
具体的,所述有机光阻块2可以为彩色光阻块,如红色、绿色、或蓝色光阻块。
优选的,所述有机光阻块2的厚度d2为3μm。该有机光阻块2用于增加基板1上对位标记14处与相邻区域的断差,以提高轮廓识别设备识别的准确性。
COA(color filter on array)技术是一种将彩色滤光片(通常由彩色光阻制成)制备于TFT阵列基板的技术,该步骤2借鉴了COA技术的方法, 将有机光阻块(如彩色光阻块)制备于TFT阵列基板上的对位标记上,从而提高了基板上对位标记14处与相邻区域的断差,有利于后续步骤中使用轮廓识别设备对对位标记14所在的位置进行识别,并提高其识别的准确性。
步骤3、如图8-9所示,在所述基板1及有机光阻层上涂覆一黑色矩阵薄膜3;
优选的,所述黑色矩阵薄膜3的厚度为1μm。
步骤4、如图10所示,基于基板1上对位标记14处与相邻区域形成的断差d3,采用轮廓识别设备识别出对位标记14的所在位置,进行精确对位后,图案化所述黑色矩阵薄膜3,形成黑色矩阵4。
具体的,所述基板1上对位标记14处与相邻区域的断差d3为3μm,从而保证所述对位标记14处的断差d3大于2μm,以便于轮廓识别设备进行识别。
现有技术中TFT阵列基板在对位标记处与相邻区域的断差d1一般小于1μm,由于该断差较小,因此使用轮廓探测的方法很难识别出对位标记的准确位置,而本申请提供的一种黑色矩阵的制作方法,通过在在对位标记14上增加了一有机光阻块2,在涂覆黑色矩阵薄膜3后,使得所述基板1上对位标记14处与相邻区域形成的断差d3大于2μm,从而保证了轮廓探测设备对对位标记14所在位置的准确识别;相比于现有的直接在对位标记上涂覆黑色矩阵薄膜的方法,大大增加了对位标记处与相邻区域的的断差,提高了轮廓识别设备的准确性。
具体的,所述轮廓识别设备为具有差分模式的镜头或CCD(Charge-coupled Device,电荷耦合元件)探头。
综上所述,本发明提供一种黑色矩阵的制作方法,采用COA技术先在对位标记上制备厚度较大的有机光阻块,然后将黑色矩阵薄膜覆盖在有机光阻块上,大大增加了对位标记处与相邻区域的的断差,进而可以利用轮廓识别设备准确识别出对位标记的位置,从而解决了BOA制程中黑色矩阵薄膜涂布后对位标记难以识别的问题。
以上所述,对于本领域的普通技术人员来说,可以根据本发明的技术方案和技术构思作出其他各种相应的改变和变形,而所有这些改变和变形都应属于本发明权利要求的保护范围。
