TFT阵列基板及其制作方法以及液晶显示面板 技术领域
本发明涉及显示技术领域,尤其涉及一种TFT阵列基板及其制作方法以及液晶显示面板。
背景技术
在显示技术领域,以液晶显示器(Liquid Crystal Display,LCD)为代表的平板显示器已经逐步取代了CRT显示器。
平板显示器主要分为主动发光型和非主动发光型两大类:主动发光型平板显示器是利用电压信号来调制各发光点即子像素的亮度和颜色,进行直接显示;非主动发光型平板显示器本身不发光,而是利用电压信号控制专用光源在每个发光点即子像素上的透过亮度,达到显示的目的。
LCD便是一种被广泛应用地非主动发光型平板显示器,其包括液晶显示面板及背光模组;液晶显示面板又包括薄膜晶体管阵列基板(Thin Film Transistor Array Substrate,简称TFT阵列基板)、一彩膜(Color Filter,CF)基板以及一配置于两基板间的液晶层(Liquid Crystal Layer)。LCD通过液晶开关调制背光源的光场强度来实现画面显示。其中,TFT阵列基板上设置有呈矩阵式排布的多个薄膜晶体管TFT,一个TFT对应位于一个子像素区域内。在现有技术中,TFT通常是不透明的,会影响到像素的开口率。
随着增强现实(Augmented Reality,AR)、虚拟现实(Virtual Reality,VR)等新兴产品的开发和流行,要求液晶显示面板具有超高的像素密度(Pixels Per Inch,PPI)。对于液晶显示面板来说,随着PPI的逐步增高,TFT在单个子像素区域内所占据的面积相对于单个子像素面积的比例越来越大;换句话说,在高PPI的液晶显示面板中,相当大一部分的像素开口率会被TFT牺牲掉,造成高PPI液晶显示面板的透光率较低,显示效果较差。
