Description

用于线性涂布机中的清洗液过滤装置、方法及线性涂布机
本申请要求于2017年10月27日提交中国专利局、申请号为201711056351.4、发明名称为“用于线性涂布机中的清洗液过滤装置、方法及线性涂布机”的中国专利申请的优先权,上述专利的全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本发明涉及显示领域,特别涉及一种用于线性涂布机中的清洗液过滤装置、方法及线性涂布机。
背景技术
在液晶显示面板的制作过程中,在阵列基板(TFT侧)的曝光部的生产工艺中,玻璃基板在涂布前需要完成通过清洗装置的清洗(Cleaner)工作,然后进行涂布前烘烤(Dehydration Bake,DB)以及冷却后进入涂布单元,在涂布单元上涂布相应光阻(Coater)后,再次经过烘烤(Pre-bake)过程,然后进入曝光机(Exposure),利用光罩(MASK)在玻璃基板上对光阻定义图形,再经过显影制程(Developer)显示出被定义的图形,才能完成TFT曝光工艺。
如图1所示,示出了现有的一种线性涂布机(Linear Coater),其主要工作过程是如下所示:
将玻璃基板2’送到线性涂布机的位于主框架10’上的大理石涂布台(Stage)11’上;
定位装置(Alignment)夹紧玻璃基板2’并修正其偏移量;
在涂布台上打开真空吸附(打开节气门17’对多个通道18’抽真空),吸紧玻璃基板2’,让定位装置松开;
可移动的涂布机构12’上的喷嘴(Nozzle)13’移动到预吐滚轴(dummy roller)14’上以完成光阻的预吐操作(dummy),然后在电机带动下移动,以在玻璃基板2’进行光阻涂布;
在涂布完成,去除真空吸附,位于通道18’中的顶针将玻璃基板2’顶起,机械手臂(Robot)将所述玻璃基板2’移出进入后续制程单元。
在现有技术中,在制作低温多晶硅(Low Temperature Poly-silicon,LTPS)面板过程中,需要制作有机平坦层(PLN),该PLN层通过在玻璃基板上涂布一层有机光阻,然后经过高温烘烤(如220摄氏度)形成。但是,PLN层所采用的光阻为有机光阻(其粘附性更强),故在涂布过程中,需要频繁进行预吐的操作,例如,在一个实际操作中,需要每隔40分钟使喷嘴13’移动到预吐滚轴14’上进行预吐操作,以对喷嘴13’进行清洁,防止其堵塞。但在实际生产中,由于PLN层光阻中有一部分物质不溶于清洗液,在进行了多次预吐操作后,此类不溶于清洗液的物质与清洗液混合存于清洗槽15’中,会在预吐滚轴14’上形成一层白色雾状残留,而滚轴刮刀无法清除此白色雾状残余,从而导致光阻涂布过程中会因残留而在玻璃基板上形成诸如Start Mura的不良,由于PLN层无法重工(rework),故上述不良会对玻璃基板的产品良率产生不可逆转的影响,甚至会导致产品报废。
