本公开提供一种阵列基板,如图1所示,该阵列基板包括依次层叠的衬底基板110、驱动电路层130和功能器件层140:其中,驱动电路层130设置有第一驱动电路200,第一驱动电路200至少包括驱动晶体管210。
图2和图3进一步示意了阵列基板的结构。其中,在图2和图3中,尽管驱动晶体管的第二栅极351呈现为不相连的两部分,但这是驱动晶体 管的第二栅极351在特定的剖切位置呈现的断面状态;可以理解的是,驱动晶体管的第二栅极351为一个连续地整体结构,当一些选择其他的剖切位置时,驱动晶体管的第二栅极351的断面为不分割的整体结构。
如图2和图3所示,驱动电路层130包括依次层叠于衬底基板110的一侧的第一栅极层310、第一栅极绝缘层320、半导体层330、第二栅极绝缘层340、第二栅极层350、层间电介质层360和源漏金属层370;其中,第一栅极层310包括驱动晶体管的第一栅极311;半导体层330包括驱动晶体管的有源层331。如图4和图14所示,驱动晶体管的有源层331具有驱动晶体管的沟道区3311;驱动晶体管的第一栅极311在半导体层330的正投影,与同一驱动晶体管的沟道区3311至少部分重合;第二栅极层350包括驱动晶体管的第二栅极351;驱动晶体管的第二栅极351在半导体层330的正投影,与同一驱动晶体管的沟道区3311至少部分重合;源漏金属层370与驱动晶体管的有源层331连接,源漏金属层370包括驱动晶体管的源极371和漏极372;
其中,同一驱动晶体管的第一栅极311和第二栅极351通过源漏金属层370电连接;功能器件层140包括功能器件141,功能器件141与驱动晶体管的漏极372电连接。
本公开提供的阵列基板中,驱动电路层130包括依次层叠于衬底基板110的一侧的第一栅极层310、第一栅极绝缘层320、半导体层330、第二栅极绝缘层340、第二栅极层350、层间电介质层360和源漏金属层370。其中,驱动晶体管的沟道区3311位于驱动晶体管的第一栅极311和驱动晶体管的第二栅极351之间,可以避免或者减弱驱动晶体管210的浮体效应,消除浮体效应导致的驱动晶体管210的饱和电流的降低,使得驱动晶体管210具有更大的饱和电流。如此,该第一驱动电路200可以为功能器件141提供更大的驱动电流,避免驱动电流不足对功能器件141的性能的影响,提高阵列基板性能。不仅如此,第一栅极311和第二栅极351之间通过源漏金属层370电连接,可以无需在制备第二栅极层350之前对第二栅极绝缘层340进行图案化操作,可以减少阵列基板制备过程中的图案化操作,减少掩膜板的数量,进而降低阵列基板的制备成本。
其中,本公开中,驱动晶体管210的饱和电流指的是,当驱动晶体管 210完全导通时,饱和晶体管的漏电流。
下面,结合附图对本公开提供的阵列基板的结构、原理和效果做进一步地解释和说明。
衬底基板110可以为无机材料的衬底基板110,也可以为有机材料的衬底基板110。举例而言,在本公开的一种实施方式中,衬底基板110的材料可以为钠钙玻璃(soda-lime glass)、石英玻璃、蓝宝石玻璃等玻璃材料,或者可以为不锈钢、铝、镍等金属材料。在本公开的另一种实施方式中,衬底基板110的材料可以为聚甲基丙烯酸甲酯(Polymethyl methacrylate,PMMA)、聚乙烯醇(Polyvinyl alcohol,PVA)、聚乙烯基苯酚(Polyvinyl phenol,PVP)、聚醚砜(Polyether sulfone,PES)、聚酰亚胺、聚酰胺、聚缩醛、聚碳酸酯(Poly carbonate,PC)、聚对苯二甲酸乙二酯(Polyethylene terephthalate,PET)、聚萘二甲酸乙二酯(Polyethylene naphthalate,PEN)或其组合。在本公开的另一种实施方式中,衬底基板110也可以为柔性衬底基板110,例如衬底基板110的材料可以为聚酰亚胺(polyimide,PI)。衬底基板110还可以为多层材料的复合,举例而言,在本公开的一种实施方式中,衬底基板110可以包括依次层叠设置的底膜层(Bottom Film)、压敏胶层、第一聚酰亚胺层和第二聚酰亚胺层。
可选地,如图2和图3所示,在衬底基板110的一侧还可以设置有缓冲层120,驱动电路层130设于缓冲层120远离衬底基板110的一侧。缓冲层120可以包括无机绝缘材料,例如可以包括氮化硅、氧化硅、氮氧化硅等。举例而言,在本公开的一种实施方式中,缓冲层120包括依次层叠于衬底基板110的氮化硅层和氧化硅层,其中,氮化硅层的厚度为40~60纳米,氧化硅层的厚度为180~220纳米。
如图1所示,驱动电路层130可以具有多个第一驱动电路200,任意一个第一驱动电路200可以具有驱动晶体管210。如图4所示,驱动晶体管210可以包括有源层331、第一栅极311、第二栅极351、源极371(图4中未示出)和漏极372(图4中未示出),其中,有源层331和第一栅极311之间被第一栅极绝缘层320隔离,有源层331和第二栅极351之间被第二栅极绝缘层340隔离。有源层331可以包括沟道区3311以及位于沟道区3311两侧的源极接触区3312和漏极接触区3313,源极接触区3312 与源极371电连接,漏极接触区3313与漏极372电连接。由于第一栅极311和第二栅极351相互电连接,第一栅极311和第二栅极351之间可以具有相同的电压,能够有效的隔离有源层351和衬底基板110,避免有源层351与衬底基板110之间形成电容和产生电荷累积,进而可以减弱或者消除驱动晶体管210的浮体效应。当第一栅极311和第二栅极351加载有与数据电压相关的驱动信号时,第一栅极311和第二栅极351所产生的电场可以同时作用于驱动晶体管的沟道区3311,使得沟道区3311能够更有效、更准确地响应数据电压而输出驱动电流。不仅如此,第一栅极311和第二栅极351相互电连接,还可以避免第一栅极311和第二栅极351之间形成寄生电容,避免寄生电容对第一驱动电路200的影响。
图24给出了一些单栅型晶体管的输出曲线和双栅型晶体管的输出曲线。单栅型晶体管只具有一个栅极,该栅极可以位于有源层远离衬底基板的一侧或者位于有源层靠近衬底基板的一侧。双栅型晶体管在有源层的两侧均有栅极,且沟道区夹设于两个栅极之间。示例性地,本公开的驱动晶体管为双栅型晶体管。在图24中,DG-25/5和DG-500/25为双栅型晶体管;其中,DG-25/5的沟道区的宽度为25微米,长度为5微米;DG-500/25的沟道区的宽度为500微米,长度为25微米。TG-25/5和TG-500/25为单栅型晶体管;其中,TG-25/5的沟道区的宽度为25微米,长度为5微米;TG-500/25的沟道区的宽度为500微米,长度为25微米。根据图24可以看出,在沟道区具有相同的宽(W)长(L)比的条件下,双栅型晶体管的饱和电流大于单栅型晶体管。
驱动晶体管的漏极372与功能器件141电连接。如此,第一驱动电路200可以通过驱动晶体管210驱动与之连接的功能器件141。在本公开的一种实施方式中,功能器件141可以为Micro LED、Mini LED等电流驱动的自发光器件,这些功能器件141可以形成阵列基板的子像素;则该第一驱动电路200可以作为驱动这些自发光器件的像素驱动电路。可以理解的是,在一些实施方式中,驱动电路层130还可以包括其他驱动电路,例如还可以包括用于指纹识别的第二驱动电路、用于触控的第三驱动电路等,本公开对驱动电路层130中是否包括其他驱动电路以及其他驱动电路的数量和种类等,不做特殊的限制。
可选地,第一栅极层310的材料可以选自导电材料,例如可以选择金属、导电性金属氧化物、导电性高分子、导电性复合材料或其组合。示例性的,金属可以选自铂、金、银、铝、铬、镍、铜、钼、钛、镁、钙、钡、钠、钯、铁、锰或其组合。示例性的,导电性金属氧化物可以选自氧化铟、氧化锡、铟锡氧化物、掺氟的氧化锡、掺铝的氧化锌、掺镓的氧化锌或其组合。示例性的,导电性高分子可以选自聚苯胺、聚吡咯、聚噻吩、聚乙炔、聚(3,4-伸乙基二氧噻吩)/聚苯乙烯磺酸(PEDOT/PSS)或其组合,导电性高分子中还可以添加有酸(例如盐酸、硫酸、磺酸等)、路易斯酸(例如氟化磷、氟化砷、氯化铁等)、卤素、碱金属等掺杂剂。示例性的,导电性复合材料可以选自分散有碳黑、石墨粉、金属微粒子等的导电性复合材料。
第一栅极层310可以为一层导电材料,也可以为多层导电材料的层叠。举例而言,在本公开的一种实施方式中,第一栅极层310可以包括依次层叠的第一导电材料层、第二导电材料层和第一导电材料层,即呈现三明治结构。其中,第一导电材料层可以选用耐腐蚀的金属或者合金,例如可以选用钼或者钛;第二导电材料层可以选用高导电率的金属或者合金,例如可以选用铜、铝、银等。再举例而言,在本公开的另一种实施方式中,第一栅极层310可以包括一层导电材料,例如第一栅极层310的材料可以为钼。第一栅极层310的厚度可以为30~100nm;可选地,栅极层的厚度可以为50nm。
可选地,可以先在衬底基板110的一侧形成第一栅极材料层,然后对第一栅极材料层进行图案化操作,以形成第一栅极层310。可选地,可以通过磁控溅射的方法形成第一栅极材料层。当然的,在一些其他实施方式中,还可以通过丝网印刷等方法直接形成第一栅极层310。
第一栅极绝缘层320设于第一栅极层310远离衬底基板110的一侧,其可以采用有机或者无机绝缘材料。可选地,第一栅极绝缘层320的材料可以为氧化硅、氮化硅、氮氧化硅或者其他无机绝缘材料。举例而言,在本公开的一种实施方式中,第一栅极绝缘层320的材料可以为氧化硅,厚度可以为60~150纳米。
可选地,可以通过物理气相沉积法、化学气相沉积法、旋涂法、丝网 印刷或者其他方法形成第一栅极绝缘层320,本公开对此不做限制。举例而言,在本公开的一种实施方式中,可以通过等离子体增强化学的气相沉积法(PECVD),在第一栅极层310远离衬底基板110的一侧沉积一层二氧化硅,以形成第一栅极绝缘层320。
半导体层330设于第一栅极绝缘层320远离衬底基板110的一侧,其可以包括非晶硅半导体材料、低温多晶硅半导体材料、单晶硅半导体材料、金属氧化物半导体材料、有机半导体材料或者其他类型半导体材料。
可选地,在本公开的一种实施方式中,半导体层330的材料可以包括低温多晶硅。进一步地,半导体层330的厚度为30~60纳米,以避免厚度太小而降低驱动晶体管210的饱和电流。
在本公开的一种实施方式中,如图4所示,驱动晶体管的沟道区3311在第一栅极层310上的正投影,位于驱动晶体管的第一栅极311内;驱动晶体管的沟道区3311在第二栅极层350上的正投影,位于驱动晶体管的第二栅极351内。如此,驱动晶体管的沟道区3311可以受到第一栅极和第二栅极的完全控制,可以消除驱动晶体管210的浮体效应,保证驱动晶体管210具有大的饱和电流。
可选地,可以先在第一栅极绝缘层320远离衬底基板110的一侧形成一层低温多晶硅材料层,然后对低温多晶硅材料层进行图案化处理,以形成半导体层330。可选地,可以先通过等离子体增强化学的气相沉积法,在第一栅极绝缘层320远离衬底基板110的一侧形成一层非晶硅层,然后利用准分子激光扫描非晶硅层,使得非晶硅层晶化为非晶硅层。
