Description

TFT阵列基板及其制作方法 技术领域
本发明涉及液晶显示技术领域,尤其涉及一种TFT阵列基板及其制作方法。
背景技术
液晶显示器(Liquid Crystal Display,LCD)是目前最广泛使用的平板显示器之一,液晶显示面板是液晶显示器的核心组成部分。
液晶显示面板通常是由一彩色滤光片(Color Filter,CF)基板、一薄膜晶体管阵列基板(Thin Film Transistor Array Substrate,TFT Array Substrate)以及一配置于两基板间的液晶层(Liquid Crystal Layer)所构成,其中TFT阵列基板上制备有呈阵列式排布的TFT,用于驱动液晶的旋转,控制每个像素的显示,而CF基板上设置有彩色滤光层,用于形成每个像素的色彩。液晶显示面板的工作原理是通过在TFT阵列基板与CF基板上施加驱动电压来控制液晶层的液晶分子的旋转,将背光模组的光线折射出来产生画面。
目前,液晶显示器的技术发展日趋成熟,现阶段以降低液晶显示面板的功耗为主要发展方向。
请参阅图1,为一种现有的TFT阵列基板的结构示意图,包括:衬底基板100’、设置在衬底基板100’上的栅极200’、设置在栅极200’上的栅极绝缘层300’、设置在栅极绝缘层300’上且位置与栅极200’对应的有源层400’,设置在栅极绝缘层300’和有源层400’上分别与有源层400’两端接触的源极500’和漏极600’、设置在栅极绝缘层300’上与所述源极500’和漏极600’位于同一层的数据线700’、覆盖所述栅极绝缘层300’、源极500’、漏极600’、与数据线700’的钝化保护层800’、以及设置在钝化保护层800’上的像素电极900’,其中像素电极900’通过贯穿钝化保护层800’的过孔810’与源极500’接触。
该现有的TFT阵列基板的数据线700’与栅极200’之间会产生寄生电容Cgd,公式为:Cgd=ε0εr s/d,其中,ε0为真空介电常数,εr为材料的相对介电常数,s为数据线700’与栅极200’的正对面积,d为数据线700’与栅极200’的间距,即栅极绝缘层300’的厚度。
为降低数据线700’的功耗,需要减少寄生电容Cgd的值。由于寄生电 容Cgd与数据线700’和栅极200’的间距成反比,可以通过增加栅极绝缘层300’的厚度使数据线700’和栅极200’的间距增加,进而减少寄生电容Cgd,但是,TFT的源极500’、漏极600’、及数据线700’位于同一层,均设置在栅极绝缘层300’上,在改变栅极绝缘层300’的厚度控制寄生电容Cgd的同时,不可避免地使得源极500’及漏极600’的位置改变,影响到TFT特性,因此,图1所示的现有TFT阵列基板不能灵活地调整寄生电容Cgd。

Cgd=ε0εr s/d(1)
其中,ε0为真空介电常数,εr为材料的相对介电常数,s为数据线400与栅极210的正对面积,d为数据线400与栅极210之间的间距。
本发明的TFT阵列基板中,由于TFT 200的源极240和漏极250设置在栅极绝缘层220上,数据线400设置在覆盖TFT 200的源极240和漏极250的第一钝化保护层300上,即数据线400与TFT 200的源极240和漏极250位于不同的层别,所述数据线400与栅极210之间的间距为第一钝化保护层300的厚度与栅极绝缘层220的厚度之和,相较于传统的TFT阵列基板,所述数据线400与栅极210之间的间距增加了第一钝化保护层300的厚度。根据公式(1)可知寄生电容Cgd与数据线400和栅极210之间的间距成反比,数据线400与栅极210之间的间距增大使得寄生电容Cgd减小,能够有效地降低数据线400的功耗,进而降低TFT阵列基板的功耗;另外,本发明的TFT阵列基板能够通过调整第一钝化保护层300的厚度来灵活调整数据线400与栅极210之间的间距,进而灵活调整寄生电容Cgd,如通过增大第一钝化保护层300的厚度来增大数据线400与栅极210之间的间距,减小寄生电容Cgd。值得注意的是,由于数据线400与栅极210之间 的间距增大的原因是将数据线400所在的层别升至第一钝化保护层300上,栅极绝缘层220的厚度不受影响,TFT 200的源极240与漏极250的位置不变,能够使TFT 200的特性保持稳定。
请参阅图3,基于同一发明构思,本发明还提供一种TFT阵列基板的制作方法,包括以下步骤:
步骤1、如图4所示,提供一衬底基板100,在所述衬底基板100上沉积并图案化第一金属层,形成栅极210。
具体地,所述衬底基板100为透明基板,优选为玻璃基板。

具体地,该步骤3形成有源层230的详细过程为:首先沉积非晶硅层,然后进行晶化处理得到多晶硅层,接着进行离子掺杂,最后使用第二道光罩通过蚀刻工艺进行图案化处理,得到源层230。
步骤4、如图7所示,在所述栅极绝缘层220与有源层230上第一次沉积并图案化第二金属层,形成分别与有源层230两端接触的源极240和漏极250,至此完成TFT 200的制作。
具体地,所述第二金属层的材料为钼、钛、铝、铜中的一种或多种的堆栈组合。
该步骤4使用第三道光罩通过蚀刻工艺来对第二金属层进行第一次图案化处理得到源极240和漏极250。
步骤5、如图8所示,在所述源极240、漏极250、与栅极绝缘层220上沉积覆盖第一钝化保护层300,并对第一钝化保护层300进行图案化处理,在所述漏极250上方形成贯穿第一钝化保护层300的第一过孔310。
具体地,所述第一钝化保护层300的材料为氮化硅、氧化硅、或二者的组合。
该步骤5使用第四道光罩通过蚀刻工艺来图案化第一钝化保护层300。
步骤6、如图9所示,在所述第一钝化保护层300上第二次沉积并图案化第二金属层,形成数据线400,所述数据线400通过所述第一过孔310与漏极250接触。
具体地,该步骤6中所述的第二金属层与上述步骤4中的第二金属层的材料相同,仍为钼、钛、铝、铜中的一种或多种的堆栈组合。
该步骤6使用第五道光罩通过蚀刻工艺来对第二金属层进行第二次图案化处理得到数据线400。
步骤7、如图10所示,在所述第一钝化保护层300、与数据线400上沉积覆盖第二钝化保护层500,并进行图案化处理,在所述源极240上方形成贯穿第二钝化保护层500与第一钝化保护层300的第二过孔350。
具体地,所述第二钝化保护层500的材料为氮化硅、氧化硅、或二者的组合。
该步骤7使用第六道光罩通过蚀刻工艺来图案化第二钝化保护层500与第一钝化保护层300,形成第二过孔350。
步骤8、如图11所示,在所述第二钝化保护层500上沉积并图案化透明导电薄膜,形成像素电极600,所述像素电极600通过所述第二过孔350与源极240接触。
具体地,所述透明导电薄膜为ITO薄膜。
该步骤8使用第七道光罩通过蚀刻工艺来图案化透明导电薄膜形成像素电极600。
本发明的TFT阵列基板的制作方法,先将TFT 200的源极240和漏极250制作在栅极绝缘层220上,再将数据线400制作在覆盖TFT 200的源极240和漏极250的第一钝化保护层300上,使得数据线400与TFT 200的源极240和漏极250位于不同的层别。
数据线400、与栅极210可以看作是两相对设置的金属电极板,二者之间存在寄生电容Cgd。由电容的计算公式知:
Cgd=ε0εr s/d                (1)
其中,ε0为真空介电常数,εr为材料的相对介电常数,s为数据线400与栅极210的正对面积,d为数据线400与栅极210之间的间距。
通过本发明的阵列基板的制作方法制得的TFT阵列基板,由于其数据线400与TFT 200的源极240和漏极250位于不同的层别,所述数据线400与栅极210之间的间距为第一钝化保护层300的厚度与栅极绝缘层220的厚度之和,相较于传统的TFT阵列基板,所述数据线400与栅极210之间的间距增加了第一钝化保护层300的厚度。根据公式(1)可知寄生电容Cgd与数据线400和栅极210之间的间距成反比,数据线400与栅极210之间的间距增大使得寄生电容Cgd减小,能够有效地降低数据线400的功耗,进而降低TFT阵列基板的功耗;另外,还能够通过调整第一钝化保护 层300的厚度来灵活调整数据线400与栅极210之间的间距,进而灵活调整寄生电容Cgd,如通过增大第一钝化保护层300的厚度来增大数据线400与栅极210之间的间距,减小寄生电容Cgd。值得注意的是,由于数据线400与栅极210之间的间距增大的原因是将数据线400所在的层别升至第一钝化保护层300上,栅极绝缘层220的厚度不受影响,TFT 200的源极240与漏极250的位置不变,能够使TFT 200的特性保持稳定。
综上所述,本发明的TFT阵列基板,将TFT的源极和漏极设置在栅极绝缘层上,将数据线设置在覆盖TFT的源极和漏极的第一钝化保护层上,使得数据线与TFT的源极和漏极位于不同的层别,能够通过调整第一钝化保护层的厚度来灵活调整数据线与栅极之间的间距,与现有技术相比,增大了数据线与栅极之间的间距,减小了数据线与栅极之间的寄生电容,降低了数据线的功耗,同时,栅极绝缘层的厚度不受影响,TFT的源极与漏极的位置不变,能够维持TFT特性的稳定。本发明的TFT阵列基板的制作方法,先将TFT的源极和漏极制作在栅极绝缘层上,再将数据线制作在覆盖TFT的源极和漏极的第一钝化保护层上,既能够保证TFT特性,又能够减小数据线与栅极之间的寄生电容,降低数据线的功耗。
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后附的权利要求的保护范围。
