如图2至图12所示,实施例详细描述本申请的制作主动开关的光罩。
一种制作主动开关220的光罩100,光罩100包括遮光区110、半透光区120、透光区130以及镂空区140,遮光区110对应主动开关220的金属层221,被配置为不透光;半透光区120对应主动开关220的沟道区224,被配置为部分透光;透光区130为除遮光区110和半透光区120外的其它的光罩100区域,被配置为完全透光;镂空区140位于半透光区120内,被配置为完全透光。
本方案中,相比图1所示的方案来说,本方案在半透光区120上设置镂空区140,镂空区140可以增加半透光区120的透光量,从而可以减轻曝光时候的失焦现象,提升工艺良率。
在一实施例中,如图2所示,镂空区140包括镂空结构142,镂空结构142设为狭缝141。
本方案中,将镂空区140内的镂空结构142设置为狭缝141,狭缝141可以增加半透光区120的透光量,同时又可以不被曝光,从而可以减轻曝光时候的失焦现象,提升工艺良率。
在一实施例中,如图2所示,狭缝141为直线形。
本方案中,将狭缝141设为直线形状,可以透过直线形的光,从而可以减轻对应曝光时候的失焦现象,提升工艺良率。
在一实施例中,如图2所示,狭缝141有多条,多条狭缝141的延长线相交于同一交点。
本方案中,狭缝141有多条,这样可以增加半透光区120的透光量,更好的减轻曝光时候的失焦现象;使多条狭缝141的延长线相交于同一交点,可以规范狭缝141,方便制作,从而更好的提升工艺良率。
在一实施例中,如图2所示,多条狭缝141均匀分布在半透光区120内。
本方案中,多条狭缝141均匀分布在半透光区120内,可以均匀的增加半透光区120的透光量,从而可以稳定均匀的减轻曝光时候的失焦现象,提升工艺良率。
在一实施例中,镂空区140包括镂空结构142,镂空结构142可以设为弧形、多边形以及其它形状。
本方案中,根据具体使用要求,镂空结构142的形状可以是任何形状,对应可以减轻对 应曝光时候的失焦现象,提升工艺良率。
在一实施例中,如图3所示,镂空结构142设为圆孔143,圆孔143均匀分布在半透光区120内。
本方案中,圆孔143的结构的各向尺寸相同,那么透过圆孔143的光是各向均匀的;本方案根据圆孔143的结构的透光特点,将镂空结构142设为圆孔143,且使其均匀分布在半透光区120内,这样可以均匀提高半透光区120的透光量,减轻曝光时候的失焦现象,提升工艺良率。
在一实施例中,如图2所示,狭缝141宽度L1大于或等于0.1微米,且小于或等于2微米。
本方案中,由于曝光机精度在2微米左右,因此,狭缝141宽度L1设置大于或等于0.1微米,且小于或等于2微米时,通常不会被曝光,这样半透光区120的透光量增加,可以减轻曝光时候的失焦现象,提升工艺良率。
在一实施例中,如图2和图12所示,金属层221包括源极金属层222和漏极金属层223;遮光区110包括第一遮光区111和第二遮光区112,第一遮光区111对应漏极金属层223;第二遮光区112对应源极金属层222;镂空区140连接第一遮光区111和第二遮光区112。
本方案中,将镂空区140设置为连接第一遮光区111和第二遮光区112,与半透光区120的宽度一致,这样可以使半透光区120的透光范围更好的照顾到宽度方向,可以更好的减轻曝光时候的失焦现象,提升工艺良率。
在一实施例中,如图2和图3所示,半透光区120包括半圆形的区域121和直线形的区域122,镂空区140位于半圆形的区域121内。
本方案中,由于半圆形的区域121周围都是遮光区110和半透光区120,而直线形的区域122与透光区130相邻,这样因为光线具有一定的散射作用,在制程中,保证直线形的区域122能完成曝光时,半圆形的区域121会存在一定几率的失焦,因此,本方案在半圆形的区域121内设置镂空区140,可以增加半圆形的区域121的透光量,从而可以减轻曝光时候的失焦现象,提升工艺良率。
在一实施例中,如图2和图12所示,半透光区120的宽度L2大于或等于2.8微米,且小于或等于5微米。
本方案中,半透光区120的宽度L2设为大于或等于2.8微米,同时小于或等于5微米,这样制作出来的主动开光,其导通电流会非常满足工作区间。
如图2和图12所示,公开了一种制作主动开关220的光罩100,光罩100包括遮光区110、半透光区120、透光区130以及镂空区140,遮光区110对应主动开关220的金属层221,被配置为不透光;半透光区120对应主动开关220的沟道区224,被配置为部分透光;透光 区130为除遮光区110和半透光区120外的其它的光罩100区域,被配置为完全透光;镂空区140位于半透光区120内,被配置为完全透光;镂空区140包括镂空结构142,镂空结构142设为狭缝141,狭缝141为直线形;狭缝141宽度L1大于或等于0.1微米,且小于或等于2微米;金属层221包括源极金属层222和漏极金属层223;遮光区110包括第一遮光区111和第二遮光区112,第一遮光区111对应漏极金属层223;第二遮光区112对应源极金属层222;镂空区140连接第一遮光区111和第二遮光区112;狭缝141有多条,多条狭缝141的延长线相交于同一交点;所述第一遮光区111包括半圆形区225,交点为半圆形区的圆心226;半透光区120包括半圆形的区域121和直线形的区域122,镂空区140位于半圆形的区域121内;多条狭缝141均匀分布在半透光区120内;半透光区120的宽度L2大于或等于2.8微米,且小于或等于5微米。
本方案中,在半透光区120上设置镂空区140,相比范例性技术,镂空区140可以增加半透光区120的透光量,从而可以减轻曝光时候的失焦现象,提升工艺良率;将镂空区140内的镂空结构142设置为狭缝141,狭缝141可以增加半透光区120的透光量,同时又可以不被曝光,狭缝141设为直线形状,可以透过直线形的光,曝光机精度在2微米左右,因此,狭缝141宽度L1设置大于或等于0.1微米,且小于或等于2微米时,通常不会被曝光,这样半透光区120的透光量增加,可以减轻曝光时候的失焦现象,提升工艺良率;将镂空区140设置为连接第一遮光区111和第二遮光区112,与半透光区120的宽度一致,这样可以使半透光区120的透光范围更好的照顾到宽度方向,可以更好的减轻曝光时候的失焦现象,提升工艺良率;狭缝141有多条,这样可以增加半透光区120的透光量,更好的减轻曝光时候的失焦现象;使多条狭缝141的延长线相交于同一交点,可以规范狭缝141,方便制作,从而更好的提升工艺良率;由于半圆形的区域121周围都是遮光区110和半透光区120,而直线形的区域122与透光区130相邻,这样因为光线具有一定的散射作用,在制程中,保证直线形的区域122能完成半透膜曝光时,半圆形的区域121会存在一定几率的失焦,因此,本方案在半圆形的区域121内设置镂空区140,可以增加半圆形的区域121的透光量,从而可以减轻曝光时候的失焦现象,提升工艺良率;多条狭缝141均匀分布在半透光区120内,可以均匀的增加半透光区120的透光量,从而可以稳定均匀的减轻曝光时候的失焦现象,提升工艺良率;半透光区120的宽度L2设为大于或等于2.8微米,同时小于或等于5微米,这样制作出来的主动开光,其导通电流会非常满足工作区间。
如图2至图13所示,公开了一种显示面板300的制作方法,显示面板300包括衬底210和主动开关220,主动开关220形成于衬底210上;
显示面板300的制作方法包括采用制作主动开关220的光罩100制作形成主动开关220。
更具体的,显示面板300的制作方法包括步骤:
S41:采用遮光区110形成主动开关220的金属层221;
S42:采用半透光区120形成主动开关220的沟道区224;
S43:采用透光区形成除主动开关220的金属层221和沟道区224外的其它的区域;
S44:采用镂空区140增加半透光区120的透光量,从而帮助形成主动开关220的沟道区224。
