Description

阵列基板及其制备方法 技术领域
本发明涉及显示技术领域,尤其涉及一种阵列基板及其制备方法。
背景技术
液晶显示装置(Liquid Crystal Display,LCD)具有机身薄、省电、无辐射等众多优点,得到了广泛的应用。如:液晶电视、移动电话、个人数字助理(PDA)、数字相机、计算机屏幕或笔记本电脑屏幕等。
通常液晶显示装置包括壳体、设于壳体内的液晶面板及设于壳体内的背光模组(Backlight module)。其中,液晶面板的结构主要是由薄膜晶体管阵列(Thin Film Transistor Array,TFT Array)基板、彩色滤光片(Color Filter,CF)基板以及配置于两基板间的液晶层(Liquid Crystal Layer)所构成,其工作原理是通过在两片玻璃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。
COA(Color filter on Array)技术是一种将彩色滤光层即红(R)、绿(G)、蓝(B)色阻直接制作在阵列基板上的集成技术。目前在COA技术之上,DBS(Data BM saving)的像素设计也越来越多的被采用,在数据线上方覆盖ITO(氧化铟锡)走线,ITO走线的宽度略宽于数据线,这些ITO走线与公共电极(COM)在电位上通常设置成等电位,在面板正常工作时,这些ITO走线与公共电极形成的电场可以使液晶分子保持不偏转的状态,从而起到遮光的目的。
AMLCD(有源矩阵液晶显示器)曲面面板设计中通常采用DBS(Data BM saving)设计和COA(color filter on array)技术来提高开口率,降低寄生电容;但是由于地形及色阻流平性差异会使得相邻各色阻之间经常存在交叠区域,在交叠处产生凸起,形成牛角地形,平坦度变差;牛角地形会导致液晶极角发生变化,该位置处液晶非垂直排布,这样就会在色阻交叠位置发生漏光现象,影响面板色度及对比度等特性参数。
如图1A所示,其为一种现有阵列基板俯视示意图。该阵列基板主要包括:基板(图未示);位于所述基板一侧交叉设置的多条数据线20和多条扫描线10,所述多条数据线20和所述多条扫描线10限定出多个子像素区域,所述多条数据线20和所述多条扫描线10相互绝缘;与所述多条数据线20和所述多条扫描线10位于所述基板同一侧的色阻层,所述色阻层包 括多个色阻30,且相邻的两个所述色阻30具有对应于数据线区域的交叠区域;位于所述色阻层的交叠区域背离所述基板一侧设有DBS公共电极走线40以遮蔽数据线20。
设于基板上的TFT阵列主要包括横向的扫描线10和纵向的数据线20,在由交叉的扫描线10和数据线20所限定的子像素区域中设有色阻30以及像素电极(图未示),例如RGB三种色阻30;横向相邻的色阻30在数据线区域互相连接交叠(图1A中以虚线部分表示),纵向相邻的色阻30之间在扫描线区域设有黑色矩阵50;在数据线20上方平行设有DBS公共电极走线40,DBS公共电极走线40宽度略宽于数据线20,用于液晶显示中实现遮光。
如图1B所示,其为图1A中A-A位置截面示意图,并且增加了图1A中所未绘示的结构。TFT阵列的源极80上制备有色阻30,色阻30上设有DBS公共电极走线40及像素电极60,DBS公共电极走线40与对侧基板上的公共电极70在电位上通常设置成等电位,以使工作时液晶分子90保持不偏转的状态。由于两种颜色的色阻30交叠处产生凸起,从而使得色阻30交叠处DBS公共电极走线40位置的液晶分子90由于地形以及上下基板在该位置处形成的正向电场或侧向电场产生漏光。
发明内容
因此,本发明的目的在于提供一种阵列基板及其制备方法,降低色阻交叠位置DBS公共电极走线处漏光。
为实现上述目的,本发明提供了一种阵列基板,包括:基板;
位于所述基板一侧交叉设置的多条数据线和多条扫描线,所述多条数据线和所述多条扫描线限定出多个子像素区域,所述多条数据线和所述多条扫描线相互绝缘;

具体实施方式
参见图2A及图2B,图2A为本发明阵列基板一较佳实施例的俯视示意图,图2B为图2A中DBS公共电极走线的图案示意图。该较佳实施例的阵列基板主要包括:基板(图未示);位于所述基板一侧交叉设置的多条数据线20和多条扫描线10,所述多条数据线20和所述多条扫描线10限定出多个子像素区域,所述多条数据线20和所述多条扫描线10相互绝缘;与所述多条数据线20和所述多条扫描线10位于所述基板同一侧的色阻层,所述色阻层包括多个色阻30,且相邻的两个所述色阻30具有对应于数据线区域的交叠区域;位于所述色阻层的交叠区域背离所述基板一侧设有DBS公共电极走线41以遮蔽数据线20,所述DBS公共电极走线41的边缘设有平行于扫描线10方向的均匀狭缝。
该阵列基板所包含的像素结构主要包括:设于基板上的TFT阵列包括横向的扫描线10和纵向的数据线20,在由交叉的扫描线10和数据线20所限定的子像素区域中设有色阻30以及像素电极(图未示),例如RGB三种色阻30;横向相邻的色阻30在数据线区域互相连接交叠(图2A中以虚线部分表示),纵向相邻的色阻30之间在扫描线区域设有黑色矩阵50;在数据线20上方色阻30交叠处平行于数据线20设有DBS公共电极走线41以屏蔽数据线20,DBS公共电极走线41宽度略宽于数据线20,用于液晶显示中实现遮光;DBS公共电极走线41的边缘设有平行于扫描线方向的均匀狭缝100。此较佳实施例中,狭缝100设置于DBS公共电极走线41的上下位置各一侧的边缘;本发明可以将DBS公共电极走线41通过光罩定义方式形成狭缝图案(slit pattern),该图案方位角分别为0°与180°,狭缝100开口方向平行于扫描线方向,可以朝向两侧两个方向。
图3A为本发明阵列基板又一较佳实施例的俯视示意图。该较佳实施例的结构大体上与图2A中相同,该较佳实施例的阵列基板主要包括:基板(图未示);位于所述基板一侧交叉设置的多条数据线20和多条扫描线10,所述多条数据线20和所述多条扫描线10限定出多个子像素区域,所述多条数据线20和所述多条扫描线10相互绝缘;与所述多条数据线20和所述多条扫描线10位于所述基板同一侧的色阻层,所述色阻层包括多个色阻30,且相邻的两个所述色阻30具有对应于数据线区域的交叠区域;位于所述色阻层的交叠区域背离所述基板一侧设有DBS公共电极走线42以遮蔽数据线20,所述DBS公共电极走线42的边缘设有平行于扫描线10方向的均匀狭缝。
在数据线20上方色阻30交叠处平行于数据线20设有DBS公共电极走线42以屏蔽数据线20,DBS公共电极走线42的边缘设有平行于扫描线方向的均匀狭缝100;此较佳实施例中,狭缝100对称设置在DBS公共电极走线42的两侧边缘,两侧均形成狭缝100可以提高DBS公共电极走线42控制液晶效果。
参见图3B,其为本发明图3A中B-B位置的截面示意图,并且增加了图3A中所未绘示的结构。TFT阵列的源极80上制备有色阻30,色阻30上设有DBS公共电极走线42及像素电极60,工作时像素电极60与公共电极70之间的电场使液晶分子91偏转,DBS公共电极走线42与对侧基板上的公共电极70在电位上通常设置成等电位,以使工作时色阻30交叠处液晶分子90保持不偏转的状态。本发明通过使DBS公共电极走线42上狭缝100形成0°与180°方位角,提高DBS公共电极走线42控制液晶效果,消除由于地形以及上下基板在该位置处形成的正向电场或侧向电场而导致的漏光。
DBS公共电极走线上的狭缝也可以采用其他设计,只要能提高DBS公共电极走线控制液晶的效果即可。例如,DBS公共电极走线的可以两侧边缘设有狭缝,并且两侧边缘的狭缝位置非对称;或者DBS公共电极走线可以仅一侧边缘设有狭缝;DBS公共电极走线上两侧(包括一侧的情况)的狭缝的纵向分布范围合并后遍及DBS公共电极走线所处的子像素区域,以满足控制液晶的需要。
本发明还提供了相应的阵列基板的制备方法,主要包括:
提供基板,在基板一侧制备TFT阵列;TFT阵列可以采用现有的TFT阵列结构;
在TFT阵列的钝化层上形成色阻;TFT阵列的钝化层(PV1)沉积后通过涂布(coating)工艺形成RGB色阻;
在色阻上形成过孔;RGB色阻完成后,通过干蚀刻或湿蚀刻工艺形成过孔以露出TFT阵列的钝化层;钝化层再形成用于使像素电极连接TFT电极的过孔;
形成ITO薄膜,图案化ITO薄膜形成像素电极以及DBS公共电极走线,DBS公共电极走线的边缘设有平行于扫描线方向的均匀狭缝;所述像素电极通过所述过孔与TFT阵列中的漏极连接;色阻上的过孔使色阻下方的TFT阵列的钝化层露出,钝化层设有用于连接漏极的过孔,像素电极通过色阻以及钝化层的过孔连接漏极。DBS公共电极走线的图案可以根据前面的实施例进行设计,通过光罩定义方式形成狭缝图案。通过溅射(Sputter) 形成ITO薄膜,通过湿蚀刻工艺形成像素电极及DBS公共电极走线图案。
制备TFT阵列可以采用一般的TFT制备工艺,制备流程为Metal1-(GI+a-Si+n+Si)-Metal 2-PV1;主要包括:
在基板上形成栅极金属层(Metal1),图案化栅极金属层,得到栅极;
在栅极及基板上形成栅极绝缘层(GI);
在栅极绝缘层上形成有源层(a-Si);
形成欧姆接触层(n+Si);可以在有源层上通过化学气相沉积等方式形成欧姆接触层;
形成源漏极金属层(Metal 2);在欧姆接触层上形成源漏极金属层,然后图案化源漏极金属层,得到源漏极;
在源漏极上形成钝化层(PV1)。
综上,本发明的阵列基板及其制备方法能够降低色阻交叠位置DBS公共电极走线处漏光,提高色域及对比度,提升产品品质。
