下面参考附图和可选的实施例对本申请作进一步说明。
薄膜晶体管液晶显示器(Thin Film Transistor-Liquid Crystal Display,TFT-LCD)中的阵列制造工程通过在玻璃基板上制备各层薄膜图案,完成了包括薄膜晶体管在内的像素阵列,是实现晶体电学驱动的关键工程。以5层薄膜图案工艺为例,根据成膜的先后顺序分为:第一层金属制程(简称M1制程)、半导体制程(简称AS制程)、第二层金属制程(简称M2制程)、钝化层制程(简称PV制程)、透明电极层制程(简称ITO制程)。M1制程形成扫描线相关图案,AS制程形成TFT沟道图案,M2制程形成数据线相关的图案,PV制程形成接触孔(Contact Hole)图案,ITO制程形成像素电极图案。在制备阵列基板各层薄膜中,从功能上可以分为导电薄膜和功能薄膜,其中导电薄膜包括金属薄膜和透明的氧化铟锡(Indium Tin Oxide,ITO)。金属薄膜经过曝光显影蚀刻后形成各种图案的金属层。
发明人知晓的采用磁控溅射来进行金属薄膜的沉积。磁控溅射是在二级直流溅射的基础上,在靶材背面附近增加了一个磁场。从靶材到基板表面的溅射过程可以看做一个是一个直线前进的过程。
M1制程为第一金属层制程,M2制程为第二金属层制程。M2制程的部分图案会与M1制程的部分图案发生重叠,M2制程从与M1制程不重叠的图案到重叠的图案会有一个爬坡的过程,如图1和图2所示。在图1中可以看出爬坡区域的薄膜图案的厚度比不爬坡区域的薄膜厚度要薄,这是因为M2制程在磁控溅射时,M2制程镀膜在竖直方向的溅射体积流量为Q,其中d1为第一金属层的厚度,爬坡区域水平有效镀膜面积小于爬坡面积。若M2保持同一线宽爬坡,其阻值在爬坡位置变大,这对保持线路阻值均一稳定性有很大影响,尤其是对于数据线的影响。
其中d2为第二金属层的水平区域的厚度,d3为第二金属层的倾斜区域的厚度,d4为第一倾斜区,d7为第一邻接区,d8为第二邻接区,d14为第三邻接区,d12为第二倾斜区,d13为第四邻接区。
如图3至图10所示,本申请一实施例公开了一种显示面板110,所述显示面板110包括第一基板111,所述第一基板111包括:衬底112、形成在所述衬底112上的第一金属层113、第二金属层115以及绝缘层114,设置在所述第一金属层113和所述第二金属层115之间,所述第一金属层113和第二金属层115绝缘;其中,所述第二金属层115包括水平区域116和倾斜区域117,所述倾斜区域117从第一高度130向第二高度131倾斜,所述第一高度130高于第二高度131,所述第二金属层115的水平区域116的厚度大于所述第二金属层115的倾斜区域117的厚度,所述第二金属层115的倾斜区域117的宽度大于所述第二金属层115的水平区域116的宽度。
本方案中,第二金属层115的水平区域116的厚度大于所述第二金属层115的倾斜区域117的厚度,使得倾斜区域117的电阻大于水平区域116的电阻,设置第二金属层115的倾斜区域117的宽度大于第二金属层115的水平区域116的宽度,进而增大第二金属层115在第一金属层113倾斜区域的面积,厚度大的对应宽度小的,两者互补,将厚度小的倾斜区域增大宽度,进而使两者的截面面积相等或接近相等,在电阻材料导电率和单位长度L相同的情况下,最后使得水平区域116和竖直区域的电阻相等或接近相等,从而保持线路阻值的均一稳定,使得显示面板110的显示效果更均匀。
如图3所示,在一实施例中,所述第二金属层115的倾斜区域的与所述衬底112所在平面的夹角为θ1,与所述第一金属层113与所述衬底112所在平面的夹角为θ2,其中,θ1=θ2。
本方案中,所述倾斜区域的第二金属层115与所述衬底112所在平面的夹角为θ1,与所述第一金属层113与所述衬底112所在平面的夹角为θ2,其中,θ1=θ2,使得倾斜区域的第二金属层115的线宽平行,整体厚度均一,通过厚度相等,可以计算倾斜区域的宽度加宽多少进而控制倾斜区域的阻值,方便计算。当然两个的夹角也可以不相等,θ1≠θ2也是可以的,角度的设置不进行限定,只要可以保持倾斜区域和水平区域116的线路阻值均一稳定 即可。
如图4所示,在一实施例中,所述倾斜区域的第二金属层115的宽度为d6,所述水平区域116的第二金属层115的宽度为d5,其中满足公式,
Figure PCTCN2018118157-appb-000005
本方案中,倾斜区域的第二金属层115的宽度为d6,水平区域116的第二金属层115的宽度为d5,d5和d6的关系满足:
Figure PCTCN2018118157-appb-000006
d5大于d6,在厚度不发生改变的情况下,增大第二金属层115的倾斜区域的宽度,使得第二金属层115的倾斜区域的面积增大,使得倾斜区域的单位长度的电阻阻值和水平区域116的单位长度的电阻阻值一致,从而改变倾斜区域电阻阻值,保持线路阻值均一稳定性,使得显示面板110的显示效果更均匀。
在一实施例中,所述第二金属层115的水平区域116包括第一区域120、第二区域126和顶部水平区域123,所述顶部水平区域123与第一高度130等高,所述第一区域120和第二区域126与第二高度131等高,所述第一区域120、第二区域126和第三区域的第二金属层115的厚度相等。本方案中,第二金属层115的水平区域116的包括第一区域120,第二区域126和顶部水平区域123,所述第一区域120、第二区域126和顶部水平区域123的厚度都相等,保证了水平方向上第二金属层115的膜厚均一性,使得线路阻值的均一稳定,使得显示面板110的显示效果更均匀。
在一实施例中,所述倾斜区域的第二金属层115的厚度为d3,所述水平区域116的第二金属层115的厚度为d2,所述第二金属层115沿水平方向的长度为L,其中,

d2>d3,V为形成第二金属层115时单位时间内第二金属层115在竖直方向的体积。
在一实施例中,所述第二金属层115的倾斜区域包括第一倾斜区域118和第二倾斜区域119,所述第二金属层115的水平区域116包括顶部水平区域123,所述顶部水平区域123与所述第一金属层113的位置对应,所述第一倾斜区域118位于所述顶部水平区域123的一侧,所述第二倾斜区域119位于所述顶部水平区域123的另一侧,所述第一倾斜区域118的宽度大于所述第二金属层的水平区域的宽度,所述第二倾斜区域119的宽度大于所述第二金属层的水平区域的宽度。
本方案中,第一倾斜区域118和第二倾斜区域119的宽度都加宽,相对于只加宽一侧的倾斜区域宽度来说,两侧的倾斜区域都加宽,使得整体电路的均一稳定性更好,使得显示面板110的显示效果更均匀。其中,第一倾斜区域118和第二倾斜区域119的倾斜的夹角可以相等也可以不相等,相等时,第一倾斜区域118和第二倾斜区域119的阻值相等,进而使整体第二金属层115的阻值一致;当不相等时,通过调节不同的宽度实现阻值一致,从而使得显示面板110的显示效果更均匀。
如图5至图8所示,在一实施例中,所述第二金属层115的水平区域116包括第一区域120、第二区域126和顶部水平区域123,所述顶部水平区域123与第一高度130等高,所述第一区域120和第二区域126与第二高度131等高,所述第一区域120包括第一邻接区121和第一走线区122,所述第一邻接区121与所述第一倾斜区域118连接,所述第一走线区122远离所述第一倾斜区域118,所述第一邻接区121和第一倾斜区域118的宽度相等且大于所述第一走线区122的宽度。本方案中,第一邻接区121和第一倾斜区域118都加宽宽度,使得工艺的精度要求降低,电阻阻值增大,对面板的影响不大。
