이하, 첨부한 도면을 참조하여 본 발명에 따른 액정표시소자의 제조방법을 상세히 설명한다.Hereinafter, a method of manufacturing a liquid crystal display device according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

도 2(a), (b), 및 (c)는 본 발명에 따른 횡전계방식 액정표시소자의 제조방법을 나타내는 도면으로서, 도면에서 A-A'선은 박막트랜지스터와 공통전극의 연장선의 단면영역을, B-B'선은 게이트패드와 데이터패드의 연장선의 단면영역을 나타낸다.2 (a), 2 (b) and 2 (c) show a method of manufacturing a transverse electric field liquid crystal display device according to the present invention, in which the line A-A 'is a cross section of an extension line of a thin film transistor and a common electrode.

본 발명에 따른 횡전계방식 액정표시소자의 제조는, 우선, 제1기판(110) 위에 Al, Cr 또는 Mo과 같은 금속을 연속증착한 후 제1마스크로 상기 금속층을 블로킹한 상태에서 동시 식각하여 버스배선(203), 게이트(205) 및 공통전극(203a, 205a)을 형성한다(도 2a), 이때, 도면에는 나타내지 않았지만, 게이트배선과 공통배선이 동시에 형성되고, 절연성의 향상을 위해 상기한 게이트전극과 공통전극을 양극산화하여 양극산화막(anodization layer)을 형성할 수 도 있다. 그 후, SiOx나 SiNx와 같은 무기물, 비정질실리콘(a-Si), 불순물 비정질실리콘(n+a-Si)을 PECVD(Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition)방법으로 연속 적층하여 게이트절연막(207), 반도체층(209) 및 오믹컨택층(도시하지 않음)을 형성한 후, 그 위에 Cr 또는 Mo와 같은 금속을 스퍼터링방법으로 적층한 후 제2마스크로 블로킹한 후 식각하여 소스/드레인전극(211), 데이터전극(211a), 및 데이터배선(211b)을 형성하고, 상기한 소스/드레인전극(211)을 마스크로 사용하여 상기한 오믹컨택층을 패터닝한다(도 2b). 이때 박막트랜지스터의 반도체층(209) 위에는 오믹컨택층 식각시 상기한 반도체층(209)이 식각되는 것을 방지하기 위한 식각방지층(etching stopper layer)을 형성할 수도 있다.In the manufacture of the transverse electric field liquid crystal display device according to the present invention, first, by continuously depositing a metal such as Al, Cr or Mo on the first substrate 110, and then simultaneously etching in a state in which the metal layer is blocked with a first mask. The bus wiring 203, the gate 205 and the common electrodes 203a and 205a are formed (FIG. 2A). At this time, although not shown in the drawing, the gate wiring and the common wiring are formed at the same time, and the above-described method is used to improve insulation. Anodization layer may be formed by anodizing the gate electrode and the common electrode. Thereafter, inorganic materials such as SiOx or SiNx, amorphous silicon (a-Si), and impurity amorphous silicon (n + a-Si) are successively stacked by PECVD (Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition) to form a gate insulating film 207 and a semiconductor layer. 209 and an ohmic contact layer (not shown), a metal such as Cr or Mo is deposited thereon by a sputtering method, blocked with a second mask, and then etched to form a source / drain electrode 211 and data. The electrode 211a and the data wiring 211b are formed, and the ohmic contact layer is patterned using the source / drain electrode 211 as a mask (FIG. 2B). In this case, an etching stopper layer may be formed on the semiconductor layer 209 of the thin film transistor to prevent the semiconductor layer 209 from being etched when the ohmic contact layer is etched.

계속해서, SiOx나 SiNx 등과 같은 무기물 또는 BCB(benzocyclobutane)와 같은 유기물을 적층하여 보호막(213)을 형성한 후 제3마스크로 블로킹한 상태에서 식각하여 상기 보호막(213), 게이트절연막(207), 및 비정질실리콘층(209)을 패터닝한다(도 2c). 이때 상기 보호막(213)은 도면에서 나타내듯이 패드영역의 컨택홀(215) 및 반도체층(209)의 보호층을 형성하고, 공통전극(203a, 205a)과 데이터전극(211a)을 보호하는 패턴만 남기고 모두 제거한다.Subsequently, an inorganic material such as SiOx, SiNx or the like or an organic material such as benzocyclobutane (BCB) is stacked to form a protective film 213 and then etched in a blocked state with a third mask to etch the protective film 213, the gate insulating film 207, And the amorphous silicon layer 209 is patterned (FIG. 2C). In this case, as shown in the drawing, the passivation layer 213 forms a passivation layer of the contact hole 215 and the semiconductor layer 209 of the pad region, and only protects the common electrodes 203a and 205a and the data electrode 211a. Remove all that is left.

계속해서, 기판 전체에 걸쳐서 제1배향막을 도포한다. 배향막으로는 폴리이미드(polyimide), 폴리아미드(polyamide)계열의 물질 또는 폴리실록산(polysiloxanecinnamate), 폴리비닐신나메이트(polyvinylcinnamate) 또는 셀루로즈신나메이트(cellulosecinnamate) 등의 광배향물질을 사용한다. 폴리이미드 또는 폴리아미드 계열의 물질을 배향막으로 사용하는 경우에는 배향막의 배향방향을 결정하기 위해 러빙(rubbing)과 같은 기계적인 방법이 사용되지만, 폴리실록산, 폴리비닐신나메이트 또는 셀루로즈신나메이트 등의 광배향물질을 사용하는 경우에는 자외선과 같은 광을 배향막에 조사하여 배향방향을 결정한다. 특히, 광반응성 배향막에 결정되는 배향방향은 조사되는 광의 편광방향과 같이 광의 고유한 성질에 따라 배향방향이 달라지기 때문에, 기계적인 러빙을 사용했을 때 배향막에 먼지나 정전기가 생기는 문제를 해결할 수 있게 된다.Subsequently, a first alignment film is applied over the entire substrate. As the alignment layer, an optical alignment material such as polyimide, polyamide-based material or polysiloxanecinnamate, polyvinylcinnamate or cellulosecinnamate is used. When a polyimide or polyamide-based material is used as the alignment layer, a mechanical method such as rubbing is used to determine the alignment direction of the alignment layer, but light such as polysiloxane, polyvinylcinnamate or cellulose rosincinate is used. In the case of using the alignment material, the alignment direction is determined by irradiating the alignment film with light such as ultraviolet rays. In particular, since the orientation direction determined by the photoreactive alignment layer varies depending on the inherent properties of the light, such as the polarization direction of the irradiated light, it is possible to solve the problem of dust or static electricity generated in the alignment layer when mechanical rubbing is used. do.

이후, 도면으로 나타내지는 않았지만, 상기 기판과 대향하는 기판에 Cr, CrO, 또는 수지 등으로 이루어진 블랙매트릭스, 컬러필터층, 제2배향막을 형성한 후, 제1기판과 제2기판 사이로 액정을 주입하여 횡전계방식 액정표시소자를 완성한다.Subsequently, although not shown in the drawings, a black matrix, a color filter layer, and a second alignment layer made of Cr, CrO, or resin, etc. are formed on a substrate facing the substrate, and then liquid crystal is injected between the first substrate and the second substrate. A transverse electric field liquid crystal display device is completed.
