Description

A kind of thin-film transistor structure of organic light emitting device pixel circuit
Technical field
The present invention relates to the plane Display Technique, relate in particular to organic luminescent device (OLED) image element circuit.
Background technology
Usually, organic light emitting display is to be combined according to matrix structure by N * M light emitting pixel unit, and each light emitting pixel unit comprises the image element circuit of an Organic Light Emitting Diode and a correspondence.As shown in Figure 1, existing image element circuit mainly is comprised of two transistors and an electric capacity, wherein, the grid of switching transistor T1 be connected with source electrode be connected scanning with scan line SCAN and select signal SCAN) be connected data-signal DATA with data wire DATA) connect, the grid connection is connected in the drain electrode of switching transistor T1 with driving transistors T2; Power supply signal VDD is connected in the drain electrode of driving transistors T2 with power line VDD) connect, thus source electrode is connected with organic electroluminescent LED D1 and is provided for the luminous electric current of D1; Capacitor C1 is connected to and is used for keeping in the given time the voltage that driving transistors T2 is applied between the source electrode of driving transistors T2 and the grid.The running of the image element circuit of said structure is: when switching transistor T1 selects signal SCAN to be switched on according to the scanning that puts on its grid, data-signal DATA is applied on the grid and capacitor C1 of driving transistors T2, the electric current that is complementary with data-signal DATA is stored among the capacitor C1, when driving transistors T2 is switched on, is stored in electric current among the capacitor C1 and is released the organic electroluminescent LED D1 and make it luminous of flowing through.
Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 are manufacture method and the structures corresponding to the panel of the switching transistor T1 of image element circuit shown in Figure 1, form resilient coating at substrate, then utilize conventional method, by on resilient coating, in succession forming active layer 1, gate insulation layer 2 and gate electrode layer 3 and insulating barrier 7, then perforate in the upper strata at active layer 1 two ends, be respectively in the hole and active layer 1 two ends contacted source electrode 4 and drain electrode 5, thereby form the switching transistor T1 of image element circuit, in order to increase the conductive effect of contact position, also be provided with connection metal film 6 at source electrode 4 and drain electrode 5.
Under the perfect condition, when switching transistor T1 was cut off, the electric current that flows to drain electrode (Drain) from the source electrode (Source) of switching transistor T1 should be zero; But, but can there be very small electric current under the virtual condition, this electric current is called as leakage current, and leakage current is less, on the just impact minimum of luminescent properties of pixel current.
Summary of the invention
The objective of the invention is the leakage current for the switching transistor that reduces organic light emitting device pixel circuit, a kind of thin-film transistor structure of organic light emitting device pixel circuit is provided.
Technical scheme of the present invention: a kind of thin-film transistor structure of organic light emitting device pixel circuit, comprise and be positioned at undermost active layer, be positioned at gate insulation layer and the gate electrode layer that is positioned on the gate insulation layer on the active layer, the two ends of described active layer are connected with drain electrode with the source electrode respectively, it is characterized in that, described active layer top forms at least twice crosspoint in order to metallic film band and the active layer that forms gate electrode layer in the centre position of active layer.
Above-mentioned active layer is meander-like usefulness so that form at least twice crosspoint in the centre position of fixing size metal membrane band and active layer.
The centre position of above-mentioned active layer has at least one contact hole, and described contact hole is embedded in metal material in order to reduce the impedance of the active layer after prolonging.
The invention has the beneficial effects as follows: because after the size of organic light emitting display and the resolution decision, the size of pixel itself has also just been decided, the size of image element circuit in panel that forms so pixel also just is fixed, under the size that limits, to design the length of the increase active layer that the thin-film transistor of the image element circuit of wanting can not be random, in order in fixed dimension, to increase the length of active layer in order to can arrange the crosspoint of more metallic film band and active layer, therefore so that active layer is meander-like, the crosspoint of only having a metallic film band and active layer with respect to the top of switching transistor T1 in the prior art, after having increased the crosspoint of metallic film band and active layer, so that the switch better effects if of switching transistor T1, the generation of leakage current can be better suppressed, therefore better display effect can be obtained.But, although increased length and be convenient to arrange more metallic film band because active layer is meander-like, but itself has impedance active layer, but increased the impedance of active layer, affect the performance of image element circuit from another angle, just can avoid active layer length to increase the increase of rear impedance by beating contact hole in the centre position of active layer and being embedded in metal material at contact hole.
