技术领域
本申请涉及显示领域,具体涉及一种阵列基板及阵列基板母板。
背景技术
显示面板制作过程中,需要进行阵列基板的制备,而在阵列基板的多个制程中,通常会在阵列基板上产生静电。静电的存在会对阵列基板的后续制程产生影响,从而降低阵列基板以及显示面板的制作良率。
现有的对阵列基板产生静电的处理方式为通过短路组件分散阵列基板上的静电,然而现有的短路组件采用半导体结构,其阻抗较大,使得阵列基板上的积累的电荷无法快速传导分散,仍然存在静电引起的问题。

图1是本申请一种实施例提供的阵列基板的结构示意图,图2是图1中E-E向的剖面示意图。本申请实施例的阵列基板100具有显示区AA以及位于显示区AA外周的非显示区NA,非显示区NA设有接口区BD。
阵列基板100可以包括多条信号线110、多个焊盘120以及多个短接组件130。其中,多条信号线110延伸于显示区AA并引出至非显示区NA。在一些实施例中,阵列基板100还包括设置于显示区AA的多个像素电路,每个像素电路与显示面板的一个像素对应,以像素是OLED像素为例,每个像素电路用于驱动对应像素发光。多个像素电路在阵列基板100的显示区AA呈预定规律排布,每个像素电路可以与多条信号线110中的至少一条连接。
阵列基板100可以包括多条扫描线以及多条数据线,多条扫描线可以同向延伸并且相互间隔设置,多个数据线也可以同向延伸并且相互间隔设置,扫描线的延伸方向与数据线的延伸方向交叉。每个像素电路连接至一条扫描线和一条数据线,扫描线可以向像素电路提供开关信号,数据线可以向像素电路提供灰阶信号。
在一些实施例中,多条信号线110可以是上述的多条扫描线;在另外一些实施例中,多条信号线110可以是上述的多条数据线。
接口区BD可以用于与外界电路板连接,在一些实施例中,该外界电路板为柔性电路板(Flexible Printed Circuit,FPC),其上可以设置驱动芯片以及控制芯片。
多个焊盘120位于接口区BD,多个焊盘120中的每个连接多条信号线110中的对应一条。在一些实施例中,多个信号线110中的至少部分对应连接至多个焊盘120。多个焊盘120可以与外界电路板电连接,例如是通过键合绑定(bonding)的方式与FPC上的电路电连接,从而实现信号线 110与FPC上的驱动芯片的电连接。
短接组件130位于非显示区NA,该短接组件130与多个焊盘120连接,使得多个焊盘120连接的多条信号线110短接。其中,如图2,在本实施例中,短接组件130包括图案化的第一金属结构130a。
根据本申请实施例的阵列基板100,其接口区BD的多个焊盘120能够通过短接组件130短接,进而使得多个焊盘120连接的多条信号线110短接。当阵列基板100上某个局部产生静电电荷时,能够通过该短接组件130将静电电荷分散在整个阵列基板100上。
短接组件130可以连接至稳定电压源,使得阵列基板100上的电荷能够通过短接组件130传导和消除。在本申请实施例的阵列基板100中,短接组件130包括图案化的第一金属结构130a,相对于半导体结构的短接组件,能够大大降低相互连接的焊盘120间的阻抗,静电产生后能够更快速地分散电荷,避免由于静电引起的静电击伤或静电引起的产品缺陷等问题。

栅极导体可以采用钼(Mo)等金属材料通过图案化制成。在一些实施例中,第一金属结构130a的材质与栅极导体的材质相同;在一些实施例中,第一金属结构130a与栅极导体同层设置,使得第一金属结构130a可以与栅极导体在同一图案化过程中同时形成,从而在未增加阵列基板的制作工序的情况下提供阻抗更小的短接组件130,提高防静电性能的同时节省生产成本。
如图2,在一些实施例中,短接组件130还包括图案化的半导体结构130b,半导体结构130b在阵列基板100厚度方向上的正投影与第一金属结构130a在阵列基板100厚度方向上的正投影重合。
具体地,如图2,在阵列基板100的非显示区NA,阵列基板100包括衬底190,衬底190可以是玻璃,也可以是聚酰亚胺(polyimide,PI)薄膜等聚合物衬底或者包含PI等聚合物材料的衬底。

半导体结构130b在阵列基板100厚度方向上的正投影与第一金属结构130a在阵列基板100厚度方向上的正投影重合,即,短接组件130在其层结构维度上包括叠层设置的半导体结构130b和第一金属结构130a,两者在垂直于阵列基板100厚度方向的平面维度上的结构相同。通过设置叠层结构的短接组件130,一方面能够进一步减小短接组件130阻抗以获得更快速的静电分散能力,另一方面能够增强短接组件130的结构稳定性。
如前所述,在一些实施例中,像素电路可以包括有源层,有源层可以是多晶硅(polycrystalline silicon,PSi)、非晶硅(amorphous silicon,α-Si)、低温多晶硅(low temperature poly-silicon,LTPS)等半导体材料制成。图案化的半导体结构130b的材质可以与该有源层的材质相同,该半导体结构130b可以与该有源层的同层设置,使得两者能在同一图案化过程中形成,节省工艺制程。

如图2,第一焊盘单元121与第二焊盘单元122之间间隔形成间隙123。第一焊盘单元121、第二焊盘单元122均通过过孔连接至互连块140,使得第一焊盘单元121与第二焊盘单元122电连接。
在上述实施例中,焊盘120包括间隔排列且通过互连块140相互电连接的第一焊盘单元121、第二焊盘单元122,使得短接组件130仍然能够通过焊盘120与多条信号线110连接以将多条信号线110短接。由于第一焊盘单元121与第二焊盘单元122间隔设置,当外界水汽等对焊盘120产生腐蚀时,腐蚀部分会截止在第一焊盘单元121与第二焊盘单元122之间的间隙123处,从而避免水汽腐蚀进一步侵入与信号线110连接的第一焊盘单元121,提高阵列基板100接口区BD焊盘120的防腐蚀性能。
在一些实施例中,互连块140的材质与像素电路的有源层的材质相同;互连块140可以与像素电路的有源层同层设置。在本实施例中,互连块140、短接组件130的半导体结构130b以及像素电路的有源层同层设置,从而能在同一图案化过程中形成,节省工艺制程。
在其它一些实施例中,互连块140也可以是其它的导电材料制成。在其它一些实施例中,互连块140可以与阵列基板100的某个金属层同层布置并能够在同一图案化过程中形成。

在一些实施例中,阵列基板100在经过检测后,可以通过物理切割等方式截断多条连接线132,使得多个焊盘120相互独立而不再通过短接组件130短接。图1和图2中,以L-L线示出用于截断多条连接线132的分割线的延伸方向。在一些实施例中,多条连接线132均沿第一方向X延伸,第二方向Y与第一方向X交叉,分割线沿第二方向Y延伸,并与全部连接线132相交。
如图2,在一些实施例中,阵列基板100还包括保护层150,保护层150覆盖短接组件130。本实施例中,保护层150覆盖短接组件130的第一金属结构130a。其中,保护层150上设有槽道151,槽道151从保护层150 的表面贯穿至第一金属结构130a,使得第一金属结构130a在该槽道151处裸露。槽道151的位置以及延伸方向与上述分割线的位置以及延伸方向对应,使得槽道151与多条连接线132相交设置。分割装置沿该槽道151对阵列基板100进行分割,可以实现上述多条连接线132的截断。
