Abstract

An array substrate and a preparation method therefor, a liquid crystal display panel, and a display device. A second semiconductor region (4042) and a second pixel electrode region (4072) in a transparent capacitor region (430) are made of transparent conductive materials, so that the capacitor region (430) of the array substrate can transmit light. Changing the original non-transparent capacitor region into the transparent capacitor region (430) improves the light transmittance of the array substrate, and increase the aperture ratio of the liquid crystal display panel or the display device prepared by means of the array substrate.

Transmittance Ratio) is an important indicator of the display quality of the liquid crystal display panel. Increasing the penetration rate of the liquid crystal display can reduce the backlight energy consumption and reduce the cost. In the case of the same backlight, greater brightness can be achieved, and gray levels can be adjusted more clearly. Several major factors that generally affect the transmittance of a liquid crystal display panel include: polarizers, liquid crystal efficiency, film absorption of the array substrate and color filter substrate, and the aperture ratio of the liquid crystal display panel. Liquid crystal efficiency refers to the transmittance of the liquid crystal display panel at the same aperture ratio.
技术问题technical problem
大尺寸透明显示面板,主要问题之一是解决开口率的问题,即薄膜晶体管(Thin-film transistor,TFT)以及电容区域尽量占比少,以增加透过区域的面积,但是电容和TFT需要一定的尺寸保证功能,所以减小的幅度有限。One of the main problems of the large-sized transparent display panel is to solve the problem of the aperture ratio, that is, the thin film transistor (TFT) and the capacitor area should be accounted for as little as possible to increase the area of the transmission area, but the capacitor and TFT need certain The size guarantees function, so the reduction is limited.

如图4所示,为在玻璃基板之上依次沉积缓冲层、栅极金属层、栅极绝缘层和半导体层之后的结构示意图,其中,玻璃基板401上分别沉积了缓冲层(图中未示出)、栅极金属层(包括第一栅极区4021和第二栅极区4022)、栅极绝缘层403和半导体层(包括第一半导体区4041和第二半导体区4042)。As shown in FIG. 4, it is a schematic structural view after sequentially depositing a buffer layer, a gate metal layer, a gate insulating layer, and a semiconductor layer on a glass substrate, in which a buffer layer (not shown) is deposited on the glass substrate 401 Out), the gate metal layer (including the first gate region 4021 and the second gate region 4022), the gate insulating layer 403 and the semiconductor layer (including the first semiconductor region 4041 and the second semiconductor region 4042).
S102、定义栅极绝缘层需要开孔的位置,同时暴露出第二半导体区。S102. Define a position where the gate insulating layer needs to be opened, and at the same time expose the second semiconductor region.
本发明实施例中,定义栅极绝缘层需要开孔的位置,同时暴露出第二半导体区的步骤具体可以是:进行一道黄光工艺,定义出栅极绝缘层需要开孔的位置,同时暴露出第二半导体区。具体的,如图5所示,在半导体层上涂覆光刻胶408,光刻胶408将第一半导体区4041进行覆盖,同时,在定义栅极绝缘层需要开孔的位置,光刻胶覆盖区域避免覆盖该开孔的位置(例如图5中左侧两片光刻胶之间开孔区域),另外,保证光刻胶408不覆盖该第二半导体区4042,即暴露出第二半导体区4042。In the embodiment of the present invention, the step of defining the position where the gate insulating layer needs to be opened and exposing the second semiconductor region at the same time may be: performing a yellow light process to define the position where the gate insulating layer needs to be opened while being exposed Out of the second semiconductor region. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 5, a photoresist 408 is coated on the semiconductor layer, the photoresist 408 covers the first semiconductor region 4041, and at the same time, the photoresist is defined in the position where the gate insulating layer needs to be opened The covering area avoids covering the position of the opening (for example, the opening area between the two photoresists on the left side in FIG. 5). In addition, it is ensured that the photoresist 408 does not cover the second semiconductor region 4042, that is, the second semiconductor is exposed Area 4042.

As shown in FIG. 6, after the dry etching process and the plasma treatment are performed, the photoresist on the gate insulating layer 403 and the semiconductor layer is removed. Due to the dry etching process, the first semiconductor region 4041 has photoresist Protection, the second semiconductor region 4042 is not protected by photoresist (also called photoresist), which can make the second semiconductor region 4042 become conductive, the resistance value is greatly reduced, and it is more suitable as a capacitor plate, while the first semiconductor region 4041 Protected by photoresist, it still maintains semiconductor characteristics. At the same time, the position where the gate insulating layer needs to be opened is etched because there is no photoresist protection.
