Description

掩膜版及薄膜封装方法
本申请要求于2017年11月27日提交中国专利局、申请号为201711208519.9、申请名称为“掩膜版及薄膜封装方法”的中国专利申请的优先权,上述在先申请的内容以引入的方式并入本文本中。
技术领域
本申请属于显示技术领域,尤其涉及一种掩膜版及薄膜封装方法。
背景技术
在柔性基板上构筑OLED器件以此制备柔性显示设备是现阶段显示技术发展的热点方向,前期研究和相应制程经验表明环境中的水氧浓度对OLED寿命会产生非常大的影响,因此对OLED进行有效封装,使器件的各功能层与大气中的水汽、氧气等成分隔开,即可大大延长器件寿命。
传统显示面板采用的玻璃封装技术难以实现柔性需求,现阶段开发的柔性封装方法,由于其封装层厚度一般为十几微米,相比于传统的玻璃封装,其封装层厚度大大降低,所以也可称为薄膜封装技术(Thin Film Ecapsulation,简称TFE)。目前比较热门、最有希望应用于量产的TFE为Barix封装技术(无机-有机多膜层封装)和ALD技术(原子层沉积封装),其原理均为在基板表面通过气相化学反应沉积一层薄膜完成对基板的封装。
应用此类技术对基板进行封装时需使用金属掩膜版将封装区域限定在成膜区(如图1中序号10所示区域),将显示面板(panel)区域部分与气相沉积保护膜隔离,防止绑定区(panel bonding)被TFE膜层覆盖导致后续模组制程和检测失效。
然而由于panel bonding区分布电路较细和脆弱,在柔性基板生产过程中极有可能因为刮擦、基板形变、静电或环境颗粒(particle)等原因导致线路损伤或断开,导致后续点灯良率降低。

请参阅图2,是图1的亚像素的生产过程中所使用的掩膜版结构示意图,其包括遮蔽区01和开口区02,遮蔽区01围绕在矩形的开口区02外侧,开口区02的形状和位置对应亚像素的成膜区10,薄膜封装材料通过开口区02在柔性基板上形成封装保护膜。

本实施方式中,通过设置开口区200的形状和位置对应亚像素的成膜区10和部分绑定区20,使得在TFE制程中封装的薄膜覆盖成膜区10和部分绑定区20,并露出需要在后续制程使用的FPC 21和测试接口22,使绑定区的大部分走线被薄膜覆盖和保护,线路不易损伤或断开,可提高点灯良率。

通过设置挡块并向开口区内部突出,使FPC区域被遮挡,亚像素上的形成的膜层覆盖部分绑定区20并露出FPC区域,既不影响后续制程,又较好的保护了FPC区域21的线路安全。
本实施方式中,遮蔽区100外框底边与第一开口201和第二开口202对应位置遮挡绑定区20的测试接口22位置,使得亚像素的测试接口22露出,使绑定区获得保护的同时,不影响后续使用测试接口进行点灯测试等操作。
一种实施方式中,所述挡块101为矩形,所述遮蔽区100内部左右两边112/113、顶边110和底边111的所述挡块101上沿的延伸114共同围合形成所述开口区200的矩形区域,所述第一开口201和所述第二开口202为矩形且宽度相同。开口区200由大的矩形区域和矩形的第一开口201及第二开口202组成,形成由遮蔽区100内部四条边形成的矩形在挡块101位置向内凹的形状,与之对应的,遮蔽区内部四条边形成由挡块位置外凸的形状
一种实施方式中,所述遮蔽区100内部左右两边112/113和顶边110对应所述亚像素的成膜区10的对应位置向外偏移100~500μm,优选为200~300μm,以使薄膜覆盖完全成膜区10;所述遮挡区100内部底边111距离所述绑定区20上沿100~500μm,优选为200~300μm,以使遮挡区100可遮挡测试接口22同时可覆盖其他区域的绑定区走线;一种实施方式中,所述挡块101上沿距离所述绑定区20下沿100~500μm,优选为200~300μm,使得挡块可完全遮挡FPC区域21。
一种实施方式中,所述掩膜版的厚度为0.01~0.3mm。研究表明,亚像素的宽度受到掩膜版厚度的限制,掩膜版厚度越薄,亚像素的宽度越小,PPI就越大,经试验,得到本实施方式的掩膜版厚度范围,进一步的优选的掩膜版的 厚度范围为0.1~0.2mm。
一种实施方式中,请参考图5,所述开口区200为两个以上,多个所述开口区200间隔设置。
本实施方式中,掩膜版安装于支架300上,具体的,可使用激光焊接工艺将掩膜版固定于支架300上;所述开口区200在所述掩膜版上阵列排列,例如,采用矩形阵列方式,对应亚像素的位置,设置M行N列个开口区200,可在一次TFE制程中对M×N个亚像素进行封装,其中,封装的薄膜覆盖每个亚像素的成膜区10和部分绑定区20,并露出FPC 21和测试接口22,使每个亚像素的绑定区的线路都可以得到保护。
请参考图3至图6,本申请一种实施方式提供了一种薄膜封装方法,所述方法包括如下步骤:
提供掩膜版100,所述掩膜版100包括遮蔽区100和开口区200,所述遮蔽区100围绕所述开口区200设置,所述开口区200的形状和位置对应亚像素的成膜区10和部分绑定区20,以使通过所述开口区200的薄膜封装材料覆盖所述亚像素的成膜区10和部分绑定区20,并露出FPC 21和测试接口22,并进入下一制程站点;
将所述掩膜版100与玻璃基板400对位并紧贴;
薄膜封装,输入薄膜封装材料并通过所述掩膜版100的开口区200在所述玻璃基板400上形成封装保护膜;
将所述掩膜版100和所述玻璃基板400分离,检查所述玻璃基板400上形成的薄膜状况。
本实施方式中,掩膜版安装在支架300上,基板承载平台500上还安装有CCD或顶针,对位时采用CCD或顶针移动玻璃基板400以完成对位,其中,对位完成的标志为玻璃基板400位于掩膜版100的垂直投影位置。玻璃基板400由承载平台500支撑。
本实施方式中,对位完成并紧贴的掩膜版100和玻璃基板400进入TFE制程,掩膜版100的开口区200对应玻璃基板400上形成的亚像素的成膜区10和部分绑定区20,TFE制程中形成的膜覆盖上述区域,并露出FPC 21和测试接口22位置,以对线路进行保护并不影响后续制程。
一种实施方式中,所述掩膜版100先镀制耐腐蚀保护膜(未图示)再进入下一制程站点。该耐腐蚀保护膜优选为Al 2O 3或PTFE涂层,涂层厚度范围为0.1~20μm。
以上所揭露的仅为本申请一种较佳实施方式而已,当然不能以此来限定本申请之权利范围,本领域普通技术人员可以理解实现上述实施方式的全部或部分流程,并依本申请权利要求所作的等同变化,仍属于申请所涵盖的范围。
