Description

触控显示面板及其制备方法、触控显示装置
本申请要求申请日为2015年5月6日的中国专利申请第201510226990.5号的优先权,在此全文引用上述中国专利申请公开的内容以作为本申请的一部分。
技术领域
本发明的实施例涉及一种触控显示面板、其制备方法及具有该触控显示面板的触控显示装置。
背景技术
为了实现触控面板的薄型化和轻量化,将触控面板和显示基板一体化的研究日渐盛行。例如,将具有触控面板功能的触控电极嵌入到液晶显示基板和上偏光片之间的单层On-Cell(盒上)触控方案,具有工艺简单、制造成本低等优点而受到人们的广泛关注。在上述On-Cell触控方案中,对盒完成后,在彩膜基板上表面沉积一层触控电极,并经过一次掩膜工艺在触控电极上刻蚀出具有触控功能的特定图形。
然而,在触控图形的刻蚀过程中,触控图形的不同走线之间会被刻蚀出沟槽。因为受到触控电极层的材料、厚度及产线工艺能力等因素的影响,这些沟槽的宽度大致在5-15um的范围内。显示基板在不点亮或者低灰阶点亮时,在反射光照射下,走线之间的沟槽清晰可见。由于沟槽不能反射光线,导致显示面板的反射光线不均匀,从而产生严重的消影现象,而上述的消影现象很难通过刻蚀工艺的调整来彻底解决,从而严重影响产品的显示品质。

附图说明
为了更清楚地说明本发明实施例的技术方案,下面将对实施例的附图作简单地介绍。显而易见地,下面描述中的附图仅仅涉及本发明的一些实施例,而非对本发明的限制。
图1是现有技术中On-Cell触控显示面板的结构示意图;
图2是现有技术中On-Cell触控显示面板的俯视图;
图3是根据本发明的一个实施例的触控显示面板的结构示意图;
图4是根据本发明的一个实施例的触控显示面板的俯视图;
图5是根据本发明的另一个实施例的触控显示面板的结构示意图;
图6是根据本发明的实施例的触控显示面板的制备方法流程图。
注意在图中,带向下箭头的线条为入射光线,带向上箭头的线条为反射光线。
具体实施方式
为使本发明实施例的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚,下面将结合本发明实施例中的附图,对本发明实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整的描述。显然,所描述的实施例是本发明一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。基于本发明中的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在没有作出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例,都属于本发明保护的范围。
需要注意的是,虽然下文中主要在On-Cell触控显示面板的上下文中来描述本发明的各种实施例,但是本领域的技术人员应当了解的是,本发明的实施例还可以应用于任何其它合适的触控显示面板,而并不是仅局限于On-Cell触控显示面板。
图1是现有技术中On-Cell触控显示面板的结构示意图。从图1可以看到,触控显示面板包括显示基板、触控电极层006以及位于所述显示基板和所述触控电极层006之间的绝缘层005,其中触控电极层006包括带有沟槽008的触控图形,显示基板从下到上包括下偏光片001、TFT(Thin Film Transistor薄膜晶体管)基板002以及彩膜基板003,并且在触控 电极层006上设置有上偏光片007。现有的On-Cell触控显示面板的触控电极层006的不同信号走线之间经过刻蚀形成沟槽008,如图2所示。由于沟槽008不能反射光线,形成光线段差,这种段差会造成在显示屏不加电或者低灰阶状态下明显的暗影,即导致显示面板在不点亮和低灰阶点亮的情况下出现反射光线不均匀的现象,如图1中光线的反射情况所示。从而产生了严重消影现象,降低了显示品质。
为了至少解决或减轻上述技术问题,本发明的实施例公开了一种触控显示面板,触控显示面板包括显示基板、触控电极层以及位于所述显示基板和所述触控电极层之间的绝缘层,其中所述触控电极层包括带有沟槽的触控图形。触控显示面板还包括透明导电膜层,透明导电膜层通过所述绝缘层与所述触控电极层绝缘。触控显示面板的显示基板从下到上依次包括下偏光片、TFT基板以及彩膜基板。本发明的触控显示面板通过在绝缘层和显示基板之间设置透明导电膜层,使得照射在触控电极层的沟槽处的光线透过绝缘层照射到透明导电膜层的上表面,实现光线的反射,补偿了由于沟槽不能反射光线而造成的光线段差,触控显示面板能够反射出均匀的光线,避免了消影现象。
应该理解,在本公开中,显示基板可以为单一的基板,例如为彩膜基板;也可以为基板的组合,例如彩膜基板和阵列基板对盒形成的显示面板;还可以包括偏光片等附属结构;“形成”例如包括通过溅射、沉积等工艺设置材料层和/或通过刻蚀等构图工艺在材料层上构造图形。
下面通过实施例一和实施例二来具体说明本发明的方案。
实施例一:
图3是根据本发明的实施例的触控显示面板的结构示意图,本实施例的触控显示面板通过Array工艺(阵列制造工艺)制备TFT基板002,在所述TFT基板002上制备彩膜基板003,并在ODF工艺(液晶滴下工艺)对盒完成后,制备触控电极层006以及透明导电膜层004,具体为:在彩膜基板003的上表面沉积一层透明导电膜层004,并经过一次掩膜工艺在透明导电膜层004上刻蚀出与触控电极层006的触控图形互补的特定图形, 即导电膜图案,导电膜图案的图形的宽度可根据工艺能力进行调节;刻蚀完成后,继续沉积一层绝缘层005,用于使透明导电膜层004和触控电极层006绝缘,绝缘层005的厚度可根据工艺能力尽可能地做薄;紧接着沉积触控电极层006,并经过掩膜工艺蚀刻出需要的触控图形,形成沟槽008,如图4所示,应该理解,绝缘层为透明绝缘材质,例如为氧化硅和氮化硅,其光线反射率远比导电材质(近似金属)的触控电极层和透明导电膜层要低,因此无助于消除暗影现象。此触控电极层的沟槽008处与透明导电膜层004的导电膜图案正好为互补关系,沟槽008的尺寸也可根据工艺能力和设计需要进行调节。
本实施例公开了透明导电膜图案与触控图形互补,因此在触控电极层006的沟槽008处下方设有透明导电膜层004,补偿了由于沟槽008不能反射光线而造成的光线段差。如图3示出的光线反射情况所示,增加的透明导电膜层004可以很好地达到消影的效果,提高显示屏的品质。
本实施例中所述绝缘层005在所述沟槽008对应的区域覆盖在所述透明导电膜层004的导电膜图案上,在其他区域设置在所述显示基板的彩膜基板003上,此种设计相当于绝缘层005和透明导电膜层004同层,有利于降低触控显示面板的厚度。
在一个实施例中,触控电极层006的材质与透明导电膜层004的材质相同,因此两者对光线的反射率相同,有利于形成均匀的反射光线。相同的材质例如为氧化铟锡等透明导电材料。
在一个实施例中,在触控电极层006的上方设置上偏光片007,起到保护和偏光的作用。
实施例二:
图5是根据本发明的另一个实施例的触控显示面板的结构示意图。本实施例的触控显示面板通过Array(阵列)工艺制备TFT基板002,在所述TFT基板002上制备彩膜基板003,并在ODF(液晶滴注)工艺对盒完成后,制备触控电极层006以及透明导电膜层004,具体为:在彩膜基板003的上表面沉积一层透明导电膜层004,不经过掩膜工艺,继续沉积一 层绝缘层005,用于阻绝透明导电膜层004和触控电极层006,绝缘层005的厚度可根据工艺能力尽可能地做薄;紧接着沉积触控电极层006,并经过掩膜工艺蚀刻出需要的触控图形,形成沟槽008,沟槽008的尺寸可根据工艺能力和设计需要进行调节。
本实施例公开了透明导电膜层004为未经构图工艺处理的整层,绝缘层005整层设置在所述透明导电膜层004上,触控电极层006的沟槽008处都会有透明导电膜层004的存在,使得照射在触控电极层006的沟槽008处的光线透过绝缘层005照射到透明导电膜层004的上表面,实现光线的反射,如图5示出的光线反射情况所示,补偿了由于沟槽008不能反射光线而造成的光线段差,所以增加的透明导电膜层004可以很好地达到消影的效果,提高显示屏的品质。另外,本实施例不需要刻蚀透明导电层,可以减少一道掩膜工艺,提高了生产效率,同时使绝缘层平整。
在一个实施例中,触控电极层006的材质与透明导电膜层004的材质相同,因此两者对光线的反射率相同,有利于形成均匀的反射光线。相同的材质例如为氧化铟锡等透明导电材料。
在一个实施例中,在触控电极层006的上方设置上偏光片007,起到保护和偏光的作用。
本发明还提供了一种触控显示装置,包括上述触控显示面板。触控显示装置例如为平板电脑、手机、电视机、导航仪、摄像机、照相机、数码相框等具有触控和显示功能的产品或部件。
本发明另外还提供了一种触控显示面板的制备方法,如图6所示,所述方法包括以下步骤:
S1、提供显示基板;
S2、在所述显示基板的上表面上形成透明导电膜层;
S3、形成绝缘层;
S4、在所述绝缘层上形成触控电极层,并在所述触控电极层中形成触控图形,其中所述透明导电膜层通过所述绝缘层与所述触控电极层绝缘。
利用本发明的触控显示面板的制备方法制备的触控显示面板,所述触 控图形具有沟槽,通过在绝缘层和显示基板之间形成透明导电膜层,使得照射在触控电极层的沟槽处的光线透过绝缘层照射到透明导电膜层的上表面,实现光线的反射,使触控显示面板能够反射出均匀的光线,避免了消影现象。
在一个实施例中,显示基板从下到上包括下偏光片、阵列基板以及彩膜基板。本发明的方法还包括在触控电极层上贴合上偏光片的步骤,起到保护和偏光的作用。此外,在其它实施例中,显示基板可以是任何其它合适的现有的或将来的显示基板。
在一个实施例中,为了形成实施例一的产品结构,本发明的实施例的方法还包括在透明导电膜层中形成与所述触控图形互补的导电膜图案,绝缘层在沟槽对应的区域覆盖在透明导电膜层的导电膜图案上,在其他区域设置在所述显示基板上。此设计通过设置透明导电膜图案与触控图形互补,在触控电极层的沟槽对应的区域设有透明导电膜层,补偿了由于沟槽不能反射光线而造成的光线段差,同时此种结构相当于绝缘层和透明导电膜层同层,从而降低面板厚度。
在一个实施例中,为了形成实施例二的产品结构,利用本发明的实施例的方法制备的透明导电膜层为未经构图工艺处理的整层,绝缘层整层设置在所述透明导电膜层上,此种设计不需刻蚀透明导电膜层,减少了工艺,同时使绝缘层平整。
在一个实施例中,利用本发明的实施例的方法形成的触控电极层的材质与透明导电膜层的材质相同,因此两者对光线的反射率相同,有利于形成均匀的反射光。相同的材质例如为氧化铟锡等透明导电材料。
以上实施方式仅用于说明本发明,而非对本发明的限制。尽管参照实施例对本发明进行了详细说明,本领域的普通技术人员应当理解,在不脱离本发明技术方案的精神和范围的情况下,可以对本发明的技术方案进行各种组合、修改或者等同替换。
