除非另外定义,本公开使用的技术术语或者科学术语应当为本公开所属领域内具有一般技能的人士所理解的通常意义。本公开中使用的“第一”、“第二”以及类似的词语并不表示任何顺序、数量或者重要性,而只是用来区分不同的组成部分。同样,“一个”、“一”或者“该”等类似词语也不表示数量限制,而是表示存在至少一个。“包括”或者“包含”等类似的词语意指出现该词前面的元件或者物件涵盖出现在该词后面列举的元件或者物件及其等同,而不排除其他元件或者物件。“连接”或者“相连”等类似的词语并非限定于物理的或者机械的连接,而是可以包括电性的连接,不管是直接的还是间接的。“上”、“下”、“左”、“右”等仅用于表示相对位置关系,当被描述对象的绝对位置改变后,则该相对位置关系也可能相应地改变。
在本公开中,两结构“同层设置”是指二者是由同一个材料层形成的,故它们在层叠关系上处于相同层中,但并不代表它们与衬底间的距离相等,也不代表它们与衬底间的其它层结构完全相同。
在本公开中,“构图工艺”是指形成具有特定的图形的结构的步骤,其可为光刻工艺,光刻工艺包括形成材料层、涂布光刻胶、曝光、显影、刻蚀、光刻胶剥离等步骤中的一步或多步;当然,“构图工艺”也可为压印工艺、喷墨打印工艺等其它工艺。
以下将参照附图更详细地描述本公开。在各个附图中,相同的元件采用类似的附图标记来表示。为了清楚起见,附图中的各个部分没有按比例绘制。此外,在图中可能未示出某些公知的部分。
在下文中描述了本公开的许多特定的细节,例如部件的结构、材料、尺寸、处理工艺和技术,以便更清楚地理解本公开。但正如本领域的技术人员能够理解的那样,可以不按照这些特定的细节来实现本公开。
在对本公开实施例所提供的阵列基板及显示装置进行详细说明之前,有必要对于相关技术进行以下说明:
在相关技术中,Thin Film Transistor(薄膜场效应晶体管)是指,液晶显示器上的每一液晶象素点都是由集成在其后的薄膜晶体管来驱动。按照触摸屏 的工作原理和传输信息的介质,可以把触摸屏分为四大类,它们分别是电阻式、电容感应式、红外线式以及表面声波式,应用广泛的有电阻式和电容式,其中投射式电容式由于可以实现多类触控(Multi-Touch)应用的最广泛,它们的缺点主要是成本较高、比较厚重等,而低成本、轻薄化成为当前触控领域的新趋势。
为了实现触控面板的薄型化和轻量化,将触控面板和液晶显示面板一体化的研究日渐盛行。其中将触控面板嵌入到液晶显示面板内部的内嵌式(In-Cell)触控方案受到人们的广泛关注。
In-Cell触控技术有电阻式、电容式和光学式三种。其中电容式方案包括自电容触控和互电容触控两种方式。自电容触控方式是,将阵列基板上用作公共(VCOM)电极的透明导电层分割成若干方块作为触控电极,利用触控信号线(Tx线)一端通过过孔和触控电极连通,另一端连接至驱动集成电路,当手指触碰阵列基板时,会引起相应位置处触控电极电容值的波动,驱动集成电路通过检测电容值的波动能够确定触碰点的位置,从而实现触控功能。
完全内嵌式(Full In-Cell,简称FIC)电容触控屏像素采用Tx In Dot的设计,即,Tx线位于子像素中间位置,这样存在以下问题:每个子像素内像素电极包括多个像素栅条,相邻像素栅条之间具有间隙(Slit),Tx线在像素电极间隙的正中间,没有对盒彩膜基板上的黑矩阵(BM)遮挡,若Tx线左右两侧的像素栅条图案发生突变,则会导致Tx线到左右两侧的像素栅条图案的距离不等,从而导致Tx线左右两侧的电场不均,产生污渍不良。
为了解决上述问题,本公开实施例提供了一种阵列基板及显示装置,能够达到减少显示产品不良,提升显示产品品质的目的。
本公开实施例提供的阵列基板,将触控电极和触控信号线均集成在阵列基板的内部,从而使得在利用该阵列基板制作液晶显示面板时,该液晶显示面板能够将用于实现触控功能的触控电极和触控信号线集成在液晶显示面板的内部,以实现内嵌式触控(Full In Cell Touch)结构的液晶触控显示面板。Full In Cell Touch结构的液晶触控显示面板,将触控功能和显示功能整合在一起,不仅能够实现一站式无缝生产,而且具有集成化、轻薄、低成本、低功 耗、高画质、可以实现多类触控(即Multi-Touch)等优势。
请参阅图1至图9,本公开实施例提供一种阵列基板。
本公开实施例提供的阵列基板包括基底100、及设置在基底100上沿第一方向延伸的多条栅线200和沿第二方向延伸的多条数据线300,多条栅线200和多条数据线300相互交叉限定出多个子像素400;阵列基板还包括:
多条沿第二方向延伸的触控信号线(Tx线)500,触控信号线500设置在子像素400的非透光区;
相互绝缘的多个触控电极600,一个触控电极对应的连接至少一根触控信号线;
多个金属图形单元,一个金属图形单元对应一个子像素设置,且金属图形单元设置于对应的子像素的非透光区,金属图形单元包括设置于数据线的至少一侧且沿第二方向延伸的第一金属条,第一金属条在基底上的正投影与触控信号线在基底上的正投影的重叠面积为A,重叠面积A与第一金属条在基底上的正投影面积的比值大于阈值。
其中,示例性的,第一方向包括竖直方向,第二方向包括水平方向。
在一些实施例中,至少部分第一金属条与触控信号线之间进行藕接。
需要说明的是,第一金属条与触控信号线之间的藕接方式可以是,通过将第一金属条的一部分区域与触控信号线的一部分区域重叠,在该重叠区域通过过孔搭接而实现藕接目的。其中,在第一金属条与触控信号线藕接处,第一金属条在基底上的正投影与触控信号线在基底上的正投影的重叠面积为B,阈值即为重叠面积B与第一金属条在基底上的正投影面积的比值,例如阈值可以为5%~10%、10~20%或者30%~60%。这样,在本公开实施例中,第一金属条在基底上的正投影与触控信号线在基底上的正投影的重叠面积为A大于阈值,也就是说,第一金属条除了在藕接处与触控信号线重叠之外,还具有其他重叠区域。
示例性的,触控信号线500可分别与阵列基板中相应的触控电极600和后续绑定在阵列基板上的芯片耦接。在将阵列基板与对置基板对盒形成液晶显示面板后,当在液晶显示面板的触控区域发生触控操作时,触控操作能够 改变阵列基板中的触控电极600上形成的触控信号,同时触控信号线500用于将触控单元上采集到的触控信号传输至芯片,芯片根据从各触控信号线500接收到的触控信号,判断触控的具体位置。
本公开提供的阵列基板中,子像素400对应的开口区为该子像素400实际的透光区域,子像素400对应的非开口区为该子像素400对应的非透光区域,相同尺寸的液晶显示面板中具有的开口区的面积越大,液晶显示面板的开口率越高,液晶显示面板的显示品质越好;非开口区位于开口区的周边。
一种示例性的实施例中,示例性的,子像素400对应的开口区为该子像素400实际的透光区域,子像素400对应的非开口区为该子像素400对应的非透光区域,相同尺寸的液晶显示面板中具有的开口区的面积越大,液晶显示面板的开口率越高,液晶显示面板的显示品质越好;非透光区位于透光区的周边。
示例性的,本公开阵列基板中,子像素400对应的驱动电路位于该子像素400对应的非透光区,阵列基板中的栅线200和数据线300也均位于非透光区。在设置触控信号线500时,可设置触控信号线500与数据线300平行且相邻,均位于子像素400的非透光区,通过这种设置方式,可以实现通过对置基板上黑矩阵同时遮挡触控信号线500和数据线300的目的,且不会再存在触控信号线500位于像素电极交叠位置而导致其左右两侧电场不均的问题,从而改善污渍不良现象。
在一些实施例中,触控电极600还可以复用为公共电极(Vcom),相应的,触控信号线500还可以复用为公共电极线。基于此,在触控阶段,触控信号线500向触控电极600提供触控驱动信号,并接收触控反馈信号;在显示阶段,触控信号线500向触控电极600提供Vcom信号,提供显示时公共电极需要的信号。当触控电极600复用为公共电极,触控信号线500复用为公共电极线时,减小了阵列基板的厚度,在阵列基板应用于触控显示面板时,减小了触控显示面板的厚度。
本公开一些实施例中,由于阵列基板上设有多个金属图形单元700,触控电极600也可以与金属图形单元700电连接,也就是说,相当于给触控电 极600并联了一个电阻,因而可以降低触控电极600的电阻,减小了触控信号线500的负载(load),有利于触控响应。此外,在触控电极600复用为公共电极的情况下,相当于降低了公共电极的电阻。
并且,第一金属条在基底上的正投影与触控信号线在基底上的正投影的重叠面积为A,重叠面积A与触控信号线在基底上的正投影面积的比值大于阈值,这样,第一金属条710还起到一个遮光作用,在一定程度上减弱对黑矩阵遮光作用的依赖,也即可有效缩小对置基板上的黑矩阵图形的面积,从而可以提高开口率。
本公开提供的阵列基板中,基底100的材质可根据实际需要进行选择,示例性的,可选用玻璃衬底,但不仅限于此。
示例性的,在平行于基底100且垂直于第二方向的方向上,触控信号线500的尺寸小于第一金属条710的尺寸。也就是说,触控信号线500的宽度小于第一金属条710的宽度。参照图2所示,本公开实施例中,第一金属条710可以位于触控信号线500靠近基底100的一侧,也即在阵列基板10与对置基板20对盒完成之后,触控信号线500位于第一金属条710朝向显示面板的发光面侧。当第一金属条710的宽度大于触控信号线500的宽度时,第一金属条710可实现对触控信号线500的完全包裹。
请参考图2所示,在平行于基底100且垂直于第二方向的方向上,第一金属条710在基底100上的正投影的边界超出触控信号线500在基底100上的正投影的边界的尺寸为0.8~2.0微米。具体的,在实际应用中,可根据显示面板的具体尺寸、子像素400的具体大小相应调整确定该尺寸,例如,第一金属条710的边界超出触控信号线500的重叠区域的宽度可为0.95微米。
此外,请参考图2所示,在平行于基底100且垂直于第二方向的方向上,触控信号线500与数据线300之间的最小间距可以为4~6微米,相应的,第一金属条710在基底上的正投影的边界与数据线300在基底上的正投影的边界之间的最小距离为2.1~8微米。具体的,在实际应用中,可根据制作工艺能力、显示面板的具体尺寸、子像素400的具体大小相应调整确定该尺寸,例如,触控信号线500与数据线300之间的最小间距可以为5.05微米,第一 金属条710与数据线300之间的最小间距可以为4.1微米。
示例性的,第一金属条710在基底100上的正投影完全覆盖触控信号线500在基底100上的正投影。这样,可以进一步增大对触控信号线500的遮光作用,在设计对置基板上的黑矩阵21时甚至可无需考虑黑矩阵21对触控信号线500的遮挡,以进一步提升开口率。
此外,如图1所示,在一些实施例中,触控信号线500具有沿第二方向延伸的中心线;第一金属条710具有沿第二方向延伸的中心线;触控信号线500的中心线在基底100上的正投影与第一金属条710的中心线在基底100上的正投影完全重叠。参照图2所示,本公开实施例中,触控信号线500的中心与第一金属条710的中心重叠,此时第一金属条710相当于将触控信号线500可完全包裹住,且第一金属条710对触控信号线500的包裹程度在第一方向上是相同的,从而有利于位于触控信号线500两侧的相邻两子像素400的发光显示相同,保证显示面板的显示效果。
此外,请参考图2所示,金属图形单元700在基底100上的正投影与数据线300在基底100上的正投影不重叠。这样,可以避免金属图形单元700对数据线300的电场产生影响。
示例性的,阵列基板10包括第一层氧化铟锡层(1ITO层)和第二层氧化铟锡层(2ITO层),1ITO层位于基底100和2ITO层之间,1ITO层包括公共电极600,2ITO层包括像素电极620。
考虑到若触控电极600与数据线300、栅线200在基底100上的正投影具有重叠区域,则触控电极600上的信号可能会影响数据线300和栅线200上的信号。因此,在一些实施例中,触控电极600可位于阵列基板10的触控区域,触控电极600包括多个相互独立的子触控电极610,多个触控电极600可呈阵列分布,也就是说,触控区域可划分为多个触控子区域T,触控电极600一一对应位于触控子区域T中。但不仅限于此。
每个触控电极600包括多个触控子电极610,触控子电极610在基底100上的正投影与栅线200和数据线300在基底100上的正投影无重叠区域;同一触控电极600中的各触控子电极610连接一起,并与对应的连接一根触控 信号线500,不同触控电极600之间相互断开而不连接。
由于数据线300和栅线200在基底100上的正投影均与触控子电极610在基底100上的正投影无重叠区域,这样一来,便避免了触控电极600影响数据线300和栅线200上的信号。
在此基础上,相关技术中触控电极600中多个触控子电极610通过与触控电极600同层制作的导电线连接在一起,由于触控电极600的材料一般为ITO或IZO等,因而导电线上的电阻较大,本公开实施例中,可通过金属图形单元700和触控信号线500将同一触控电极600中的多个触控子电极610连接在一起,金属图形单元700和触控电极600相互电连接,由于金属图形单元700的电阻小于ITO或IZO的电阻,因而可以减小触控电极600的电阻。
需要说明的是,触控区域的具体位置可根据实际需要设置,示例性的,触控区域与阵列基板10在形成液晶显示面板后的整个显示区域重合;或者设置触控区域位于显示区域内,且仅与显示区域中的指定区域重合。也就是说,针对阵列基板10上的多个子像素400,可以是每个子像素400均设置有触控子电极610;也可以是部分子像素400设置有触控子电极610,部分子像素400不设置触控子电极610。
还需要说明的是,金属图形单元700可以单独制作,不与阵列基板10上已有的图案层同层制作,也可以和阵列基板10上已有的图案层同层制作。例如,一些实施例中,如图1至图3所示,金属图形单元700可以与栅线200同层制作,即金属图形单元700与栅线200同层同材料。当金属图形单元700与栅线200同层同材料时,可以同时制作金属图形单元700和栅线200,从而简化了阵列基板10的制作工艺。
在金属图形单元700与栅线200同层同材料的情况下,金属图形单元700和栅线200无重叠区域,因此设计金属图形单元700时,金属图形单元700既要满足与触控电极600与触控信号线500连接以减少触控电极600的电阻的要求,同时又需要实现同一触控电极600中各触控子电极610之间的电连接,以及不同触控电极600之间的断开。
因此,在一些实施例中,如图1和图3所示,金属图形单元700还包括 第二金属条720,第二金属条720包括:第一子金属线721和第二子金属线722,第一子金属线721设置于栅线的至少一侧且沿第一方向延伸;第二子金属线722设置于数据线的至少一侧且沿第二方向延伸,其中第一子金属线721与第二子金属线722连接,且第二子金属线722与第一金属条711分设于对应的子像素的相对两侧。
采用上述方案,金属图形单元700包括第一金属条710和第二金属条720,第二金属条720又包括第一子金属线721和第二子金属线722,这样,金属图形单元700围绕子像素的开口区设置,从而可以利用金属图形单元700的遮光作用,甚至无需设置黑矩阵21。
在一些实施例中,如图3所示,第一金属条710与第二金属条720同层设置,且同一金属图形单元700中的第一金属条710与第二金属条720之间在第二方向上具有第一断开口730;不同金属图形单元700的两个第一子金属线721之间在第一方向上具有第二断开口740。
示例性的,如图3所示,同一触控电极600中,沿第一方向相邻的多个金属图形单元700之间的第一子金属线721之间通过与第一金属条710同层或异层设置的第一桥接部741连接第二断开口740,且至少一个金属图形单元与该触控电极中的至少一个触控子电极藕接;沿第一方向相邻的不同触控电极中,多个金属图形单元700之间的第一子金属线721之间,通过第二断开口740断开而不连接;
同一触控电极600中,在第二方向上排列的至少一列金属图形单元的第一金属条710与第二金属条720之间通过与第一金属条710同层或异层设置的第二桥接部742连接第一断开口730,且第一金属条710与对应的触控信号线500藕接;在第二方向上的相邻触控电极600之间,金属图形单元700不连接。
上述方案中,公共电极的材料可包括ITO,金属图形单元700的材料可包括导电金属。通常导电金属的电阻率远低于ITO的电阻率。这样,通过令同一个触控子区域T中的公共电极通过金属图形单元700来耦接,能够大大 降低阵列基板10中公共电极整体的电阻,提高同一触控子区域T中公共电极的电阻均一性。
此外,上述方案中,参照图1至图3,位于同一个触控子区域T中的多个金属图形单元之间700可通过桥接部耦接在一起。
具体的,图3表示本公开一些实施例提供的阵列基板中,位于同一触控子区域中的多个金属图形单元以及不同触控子区域中金属图形单元的布局示意图。如图3所示,一些实施例中,在位于同一个触控子区域T中的多个金属图形单元700中,沿第一方向(行方向)排列的相邻金属图形单元700之间通过第一桥接部741连接,该第一桥接部741位于相邻两个金属图形单元的第一子金属线之间,可以是与第一子金属线同层设置,即,相邻两个金属图形单元的第一子金属线连为一体,或者,第一桥接部741也可以是与第一子金属线异层设置,并通过过孔连接,从而实现在行方向上同一触控电极连接,而不同触控子区域T之间的金属图形单元700之间则通过第一断开口730在行方向上断开不连接;
在第二方向(即列方向)上,第一金属条与第二金属条720之间通过与第一金属条同层或异层设置的第二桥接部742连接第一断开口,其中该第二桥接部742位于同一金属图形单元700的第一子金属线721与第一金属条711之间,可以是与第一子金属线同层设置,即,相邻两个金属图形单元的第一子金属线连为一体,或者,第二桥接部742也可以是与第一子金属线异层设置,并通过过孔连接,且同一触控子区域T内在第二方向上排列的至少一列第一金属条可以分别与同一触控信号线(即与该触控子区域对应的触控信号线)之间通过过孔藕接(图中圆形虚线区域O即为过孔位置),而与其他不对应的触控信号线(即与该触控子区域不对应的触控信号线)之间不藕接,从而实现同一触控子区域内的金属图形单元之间在列方向上通过对应的触控信号线连接,而在列方向上由于第一金属条仅与对应的触控信号线连接,而与不对应的触控信号线不连接,从而使得在第二方向上的相邻触控电极之间,金属图形单元不连接。。
示例性的,第一桥接部741与第二桥接部742可以不与阵列基板10上已 有的图案层同层制作,也可以和阵列基板10上已有的图案层同层制作。例如,第一桥接部741和第二桥接部742可以与栅线200同层制作。即第一桥接部741和第二桥接部742与栅线200同层同材料。当第一桥接部741与第二桥接部742与栅线200同层同材料时,可以同时制作金属图形单元700和栅线200,从而简化了阵列基板10的制作工艺。
需要说明的是,以上仅是一种示例,该示例性实施例中,是通过在行方向上,将相邻的第二金属条720之间连接,通过控制第二断开口740是否连接,实现在行方向上的触控电极分块;
而在列方向上,将各触控子区域内的金属图形单元中第一金属条710和第二金属条720之间均通过同层或异层设置的第一连接桥实现连接,第一金属条710与触控信号线500之间不全部通过过孔连接,仅在与该第一金属条710所在的触控子区域相对应的触控信号线和触控电极通过过孔连接,不对应的触控信号线和触控电极不连接,也就是,通过控制第一金属条710与不同触控信号线之间的通断,实现在列方向上的触控电极分块。
需要说明的是,在上述示例性的实施例中,如图所示,在一些实施例中,如图3所示,各触控子区域内的金属图形单元中第一金属条710和第二金属条720之间均连接;另一些实施例中,如图9所示,同一触控子区域内的多个金属图形单元中,一部分金属图形单元的第一金属条和第二金属条之间连接,另一部分金属图形单元的第一金属条和第二金属条之间通过第一断开口730断开不连接。
此外,图8表示本公开另一些实施例提供的阵列基板中,位于同一触控子区域中的多个金属图形单元以及不同触控子区域中金属图形单元的布局示意图。
如图8所示,同一触控电极中,多个金属图形单元之间的第一子金属线之间通过与第一金属条同层或异层设置的第一桥接部连接第二断开口,且至少一个金属图形单元与该触控电极中的至少一个触控子电极藕接;不同触控电极中,多个金属图形单元之间的第一子金属线之间,通过第二断开口断开而不连接;
同一触控电极中,在第二方向上排列的至少两列第一金属条分别通过过孔(图中虚线圆形区域O即为过孔位置)连接至不同的触控信号线,与该触控电极不对应的所述触控信号线所连接的第一金属条,通过第一断开口与该触控电极内的第二金属条之间断开不连接,以使在第二方向上的相邻所述触控电极之间,金属图形单元不连接。
上述实施例中,是在行方向上,相邻的第二金属条720之间连接,通过控制第二断开口740是否连接,实现在行方向上的触控电极分块;
在列方向上,第一金属条710与触控信号线500之间分别全部通过过孔连接,此时,通过控制第一断开口730是否连接,实现相对应的触控信号线和触控电极连接,不对应的触控信号线和触控电极不连接,以此实现在列方向上的触控电极分块。
此外,在一些示例性的实施例中,如图1至图3所示,相邻两个金属图形单元700中,一个金属图形单元700的第一金属条710和另一个金属图形单元700的第二子金属线722,位于同一根数据线300的相对两侧,并在平行于基底100且垂直于第二方向的方向上,在基底100上的正投影的边界与数据线300在基底100上的正投影的边界之间的距离相同。
并且,在一些实施例中,请参见图1至图3所示,第一子金属线721和第二子金属线722在基底100之上的正投影被对置基板20上对应的黑矩阵21的遮光条在基底100上的正投影完全覆盖。例如,在平行于基底100且垂直于第一方向的方向上,黑矩阵21在基底100上的正投影的边界超出第一金属条710在基底100上的正投影的边界的尺寸为1~3微米具体的,在实际应用中,可根据显示面板的具体尺寸、子像素400的具体大小相应调整确定该尺寸,例如,黑矩阵21在基底100上的正投影的边界超出第一金属条710在基底100上的正投影的边界的尺寸为1.5微米。
同样的,在平行于基底100且垂直于第一方向的方向上,黑矩阵21在基底100上的正投影的边界超出第二金属条720在基底100上的正投影的边界的尺寸为1~3微米。具体的,在实际应用中,可根据显示面板的具体尺寸、子像素400的具体大小相应调整确定该尺寸,例如,黑矩阵21在基底100上 的正投影的边界超出第二金属条720在基底100上的正投影的边界的尺寸为1.5微米。
此外,在本公开一些实施例中,在平行于基底100且垂直于第二方向的方向上,数据线300在基底100上的正投影的边界和与该数据线300相邻两个子像素400内的像素电极620在基底100上的正投影的边界之间的距离相等;数据线300在基底100上的正投影的边界和与该数据线300相邻两个子像素400内的公共电极在基底100上的正投影的边界之间的距离相等。
上述方案中,1st ITO与2nd ITO可以做到相对于数据线300对称,也就是,数据线300左右侧与电极距离相等,这样,可以减少数据线300与左右侧电极之间的寄生电容不同导致的不良。
此外,示例性的,阵列基板10还包括:有机绝缘层810;触控信号线500与数据线300同层且同材质设置,且有机绝缘层810设置在数据线300所在层与触控电极600所在层之间。
上述方案中,示例性的,有机绝缘层810的厚度较厚,具有平坦作用。上述设置有机绝缘层810的至少部分位于触控信号线500和公共电极之间,增加了触控信号线500与像素电极620之间的距离,有利于改善由像素电极620工艺波动导致的触控信号线500与像素电极620之间形成的左右侧电场不对称的问题,从而改善了开口区透过率偏差,更好的解决了由透过率偏差导致的视觉上亮暗不一,视觉上形成黑污渍或者白污渍的不良,有效提升了产品的良率。
在将位于同一个触控子区域T中的公共电极复用为该触控子区域T中的触控电极600的情况下,在利用阵列基板10形成液晶显示面板后,利用该液晶显示面板实现触控显示功能的具体过程如下:
在触控阶段,触控信号线500向所耦接的公共电极(也即触控电极600)提供触控信号,当在液晶显示面板的触控区域发生触控操作时,触控操作发生位置处的触控电极600单元对应的触控信号会发生变化,触控电极600单元将该变化的触控信号通过对应的触控信号线500传输至芯片,该芯片基于该变化的触控信号判断触控操作发生的具体位置;在显示阶段,触控信号线 500向所耦接的公共电极提供显示需要的公共电极信号,同时阵列基板10中的子像素400驱动电路为对应的像素电极620提供驱动信号,从而使得在像素电极620和公共电极之间产生驱动液晶偏转的电场,进而使得液晶显示面板实现显示功能。
此外,如图2所示,一些实施例中,阵列基板10还包括:栅绝缘层(GI层)820和钝化层830;沿背离基底100的方向,金属图形单元700所在层、栅绝缘层820、触控信号线500和数据线300所在层、有机绝缘层(ORG)810、触控电极600所在层、钝化层(PVX)830、像素电极620所在层依次设置;触控电极600通过第一连接过孔Via1与金属图形单元700耦接,第一连接过孔Via1至少贯穿钝化层830、有机绝缘层810和栅绝缘层820;触控信号线500通过第二连接过孔Via2与金属图形单元耦接,第二连接过孔Via2至少贯穿钝化层830、有机绝缘层810和栅绝缘层820。
请参见图4,示例性的,第一连接过孔Via1包括第一子过孔和第二子过孔;第一子过孔贯穿钝化层830,将触控电极600部分裸露出来;第二子过孔贯穿有机绝缘层810和栅绝缘层820,将金属图形单元700部分裸露出来;阵列基板10还包括第一连接图形910,第一连接图形910在基底100上的正投影覆盖第一连接过孔Via1的第一子过孔和第二子过孔在基底100上的正投影,以将触控电极600和金属图形单元700耦接。
示例性的,请参见图5,第二连接过孔Via2包括第三子过孔和第四子过孔;
第三子过孔贯穿钝化层830,将触控信号线500部分裸露出来;第四子过孔贯穿有机绝缘层810和栅绝缘层820,将金属图形单元700部分裸露出来;阵列基板10还包括第二连接图形920,第二连接图形920在基底100上的正投影覆盖第二连接过孔Via2的第三子过孔和第四子过孔在基底100上的正投影,以将触控信号线500和金属图形单元700耦接。
在上述方案中,触控电极600可通过第一连接图形910与金属图形连接。其中,第一连接图形910在基底100上的正投影覆盖第一连接过孔Via1的第一子过孔以及第二子过孔在基底100上的正投影。本公开实施例中,可在阵 列基板10的制备过程中,先进行一次构图工艺将有机绝缘层810上的过孔(对应第一过孔的第一子过孔)去掉,以暴露出来部分触控电极600;然后在进行另一次构图工艺制作钝化层830上过孔时,可将金属图形单元700上面的栅绝缘层820和钝化层830同时去掉,以暴露出来部分金属图形单元,这样,可省去对栅绝缘层820的单独刻蚀步骤,节省一道掩膜工艺,从而简化阵列基板10的制作工艺流程,节约阵列基板10的制作成本。
在一些实施例中,第一连接图形910、第二连接图形920均可以与像素电极620同层设置且材料相同。将第一连接图形910、第二连接图形920与像素电极620同层同材料设置,使得第一连接图形910、第二连接图形920与像素电极620能够在同一次构图工艺中形成,有利于简化阵列基板10的制作工艺流程,降低阵列基板10的制作成本。当然可以理解的是,第一连接图形910和第二连接图形920也可以是单独制作。
此外,一些示例性的实施例中,请参见图6所示,阵列基板10还包括:驱动电路,驱动电路的输出电极840的至少部分位于有机绝缘层810靠近基底100的一侧;像素电极620通过第三连接过孔Via3与输出电极840耦接,第三连接过孔Via3至少贯穿有机绝缘层810和钝化层830,以将驱动电路的输出电极840裸露出来,使像素电极620与输出电极840耦接。
示例性的,驱动电路包括:驱动晶体管;第三连接过孔Via3包括:第五子过孔和第六子过孔;第五子过孔贯穿有机绝缘层810,第六子过孔贯穿钝化层830,第五子过孔在基底100上的正投影包括第六子过孔在基底100上的正投影;像素电极620通过第三连接过孔Via3与输出电极840耦接。
上述方案中,薄膜晶体管的栅极与相应的栅线200耦接,薄膜晶体管的输入电极与相应的数据线300耦接,薄膜晶体管的输出电极840作为驱动电路的输出电极840,输出电极840与像素电极620耦接。示例性的,输出电极840包括薄膜晶体管的源极。
示例性的,输出电极840与数据线300和触控信号线500同层同材料设置。如图1至图9所示,沿远离基底100的方向,栅绝缘层820,输出电极840,有机绝缘层810,公共电极,钝化层830和像素电极620依次层叠设置。
示例性的,形成有机绝缘层810后,进行一次构图工艺,在有机绝缘层810上形成开孔,形成贯穿有机绝缘层810的第五子过孔。然后形成钝化层830,进行下一次构图工艺,对钝化层830进行构图形成贯穿钝化层830的第六子过孔。需要说明,钝化层830的一部分位于第五子过孔内,对该一部分进行刻蚀,形成第六子过孔,第五子过孔在基底100上的正投影包围第六子过孔在基底100上的正投影,形成套孔。然后形成像素电极620,像素电极620通过第一子过孔和第二子过孔与输出电极840耦接。
上述实施例提供的显示基板中,通过设置第五子过孔的边界在基底100上的正投影与输出电极840在基底100上的正投影至少部分重叠,使得第五子过孔的边界的至少部分能够位于输出电极840上,进而可以控制第六子过孔的边界的至少部分能够位于输出电极840上,这样能够避免像素电极62040在输出电极840的边界处完全断开,从而保证了像素电极620与输出电极840良好的连接性能。
在相关技术中,为了降低像素电极的电阻,像素电极上设置有多个狭缝(slit),为了保证液晶显示面板正常的显示功能,需要设置配向层中沟槽的延伸方向与狭缝的延伸方向相同,即在配向的过程中,取向布需要沿着与数据线的延伸方向垂直的方向对配向膜进行摩擦,这样取向布在数据线附近进行摩擦时,在数据线处需要爬坡,容易导致在数据线附近出现较大的配向阴影(即Rubbing Shadow)区域,而由于该区域容易产生漏光现象,因此该区域需要在对盒后,需要由对置基板上的黑矩阵图形进行遮挡,从而导致增加了黑矩阵图形在垂直于数据线延伸方向上的宽度,降低液晶显示面板的开口率。
基于上述问题的存在,本公开的公开人经研究发现,可通过改变狭缝的延伸的方向,使狭缝的延伸方向与数据线的延伸方向相同,并使配向层配向后的沟槽方向与数据线的延伸方向相同,这样在配向的过程中,就能够避免在数据线附近形成配向阴影区域,从而减小了用于遮挡数据线的黑矩阵图形在垂直于数据线延伸方向上的宽度,有效提升了液晶显示面板的开口率。
可选的,如图1所示,每个像素电极620包括多个沿第二方向延伸的狭 缝620a。
此处,狭缝620a沿第二方向延伸指的是,狭缝620a整体上沿第二方向延伸。在一些实施例中,像素电极620包括一个畴,在此情况下,狭缝620a为直线状;在另一些实施例中,像素电极620划分两个畴,在此情况下,如图1所示,每条狭缝620a包括第一子狭缝和第二子狭缝,第一子狭缝和第二子狭缝的夹角θ为钝角。
在阵列基板上形成配向层的过程包括:
先在阵列基板设置有像素电极的一侧制作配向材料薄膜,然后利用取向布沿像素电极中狭缝的延伸方向(即数据线的延伸方向)进行摩擦配向,形成具有沟槽的配向层,该沟槽的延伸方向与狭缝的延伸方向相同。
由于狭缝620a沿第二方向延伸,利用取向布对取向薄膜进行取向时,取向布沿第二方向移动,使得在阵列基板上对配向材料薄膜配向的过程中,不会在数据线的附近形成较大的Rubbing Shadow区域。由于无Rubbing Shadow区域产生的漏光问题,因而黑矩阵21图案中遮光条沿第一方向的宽度可以设计的更窄,进而可以有效提高开口率。
如图1所示,在本公开一些实施例中,由于第二金属条720与触控电极之间通过第一连接过孔Via1连接,为了对该第一连接过孔处进行避让,像素电极的形状适应性的具有缺口,相应的,在缺口对应区域的狭缝620a沿第二方向的长度小于其他区域的狭缝620a沿第二方向的长度。以图1所示的具体实施例为例,一个像素电极中狭缝的数量可以有7个,其中靠近第二子金属线一侧的2个狭缝的上端对齐、下端对齐设置,这2个狭缝的长度小于靠近第一金属条的一侧5个狭缝的长度,靠近第一金属条的一侧5个狭缝的上端对齐、下端对齐设置。
当然,以上仅是示例,在实际应用中,对于狭缝的数量以及长度等不以此为限。
需要说明的是,图1表示本公开实施例提供的一种阵列基板中子像素的布局示意图,图中走线会存在弯折转向的部位,且图中在走线弯折转向位置为尖角,在实际产品由于制作工艺,走线弯折转向部位应为圆角过渡,这里 仅是为了画图方便未示意成圆角。
本公开实施例还提供一种显示装置,包括相对设置的阵列基板10和对置基板20、以及设置在阵列基板10和对置基板20之间的液晶层,阵列基板10为本公开实施例提供的阵列基板10。
对置基板20上设有黑矩阵21,黑矩阵21在阵列基板上的正投影位于子像素的非透光区,且在平行于基底且垂直于第二方向的方向上,黑矩阵在基底上的正投影的边界和与与黑矩阵相邻两个子像素内的像素电极在基底上的正投影的边界之间的距离相等;黑矩阵在基底上的正投影的边界和与与黑矩阵相邻两个子像素内的公共电极在基底上的正投影的边界之间的距离相等。
上述方案中,1st ITO与2nd ITO可以做到相对于黑矩阵21对称,也就是,黑矩阵21左右侧与电极距离相等,因此黑矩阵对子像素的遮挡效果会更有利于子像素透光率的均匀性,也就是说,有利于像素的对称性。
需要说明的是,显示装置可以为:液晶显示面板、电视、显示器、数码相框、手机、电子纸、平板电脑、笔记本电脑、数码相框、导航仪等任何具有显示功能的产品或部件等。
本公开实施例提供的显示装置在包括上述阵列基板10时同样具有上述有益效果,此处不再赘述。
本公开实施例还提供了一种阵列基板10的制备方法,该制备方法包括:
步骤S01、提供基底100;
步骤S02、在基底100上制作多条栅线200、多条数据线300、多条触控信号线500、多个触控电极600和金属图形单元700等,多条栅线200沿第一方向延伸、多条数据线300沿第二方向延伸,多条栅线200和多条数据线300相互交叉限定出多个子像素400;多条触控信号线500沿第二方向延伸,触控信号线500设置在相邻子像素400之间的非透光区;多个触控电极600相互绝缘;多个金属图形单元700设置在相邻子像素400之间的非透光区,一个金属图形单元700对应一个触控电极600,触控电极600通过对应的金属图形单元700与对应的触控信号线500藕接,且金属图形单元700在基底100上的正投影与触控信号线500在基底100上的正投影至少部分重叠。
本公开实施例所提供的阵列基板10的制造方法,将触控信号线500与数据线300平行设置,且触控信号线500位于相邻子像素400之间的非透光区,这样,触控信号线500可以与数据线300共同被对置基板20上的黑矩阵21所覆盖,从而可解决相关技术中触控信号线500位于子像素400中间时所存在的触控信号线500与左右电极之间电场不均匀的问题,减少污渍不良现象;并且,触控电极600与触控信号线500通过金属图形电连接,能够减少触控电极600的电阻,有效降低触控信号线500上的损耗,提升触控灵敏度,整体上提升产品品质;此外,触控信号线500可被金属图形单元至少部分覆盖,金属图形单元还可以起到遮光作用,减弱对黑矩阵21遮光作用的依赖,从而可减少对置基板20上黑矩阵21的图形遮光面积。
