Description
本發明是有關於一種顯示面板,且特別是有關於顯示面板間隙物的設計。 The present invention relates to a display panel, and more particularly to the design of a display panel spacer.
液晶顯示裝置具有高畫質、體積小、重量輕、低電壓驅動、低消耗功率及應用範圍廣等優點,因此已成為新一代顯示裝置的主流。傳統的液晶顯示面板是由彩色濾光基板(Color Filter)、畫素陣列基板以及配置於此兩基板間的液晶層所構成。 The liquid crystal display device has the advantages of high image quality, small size, light weight, low voltage driving, low power consumption, and wide application range, and thus has become the mainstream of the new generation display device. A conventional liquid crystal display panel is composed of a color filter substrate, a pixel array substrate, and a liquid crystal layer disposed between the two substrates.
具體來說,將畫素陣列基板以及彩色濾光膜基板組立,並於兩基板間填入液晶分子即可形成液晶顯示面板。為了維持兩基板之間的間隙,會先將間隙物(Photo spacer)形成於彩色濾光基板上。之後,再將畫素陣列基板與彩色濾光基板組立。 Specifically, a liquid crystal display panel is formed by arranging a pixel array substrate and a color filter substrate, and filling liquid crystal molecules between the substrates. In order to maintain the gap between the two substrates, a photo spacer is formed on the color filter substrate. Thereafter, the pixel array substrate and the color filter substrate are assembled.
但是,一旦兩基板間因對位誤差而錯移,會造成面板組立後機械加工制程的困難。特別是,間隙物與畫素陣列基板接觸的面積可能因而減少或是偏移而造成間隙物的支撐性不佳。舉例而言,日本專利JP-2003-156750號提出將間隙物配置於畫素陣列基板的資料線上方。不過,資料線的面積有限,若兩基板間具有錯移,將使間隙物僅接觸數據線的一側而有支撐力不均勻的情形。 However, if the two substrates are misaligned due to the alignment error, it may cause difficulty in the mechanical processing of the panel assembly. In particular, the area in which the spacers are in contact with the pixel array substrate may be reduced or offset to cause poor support of the spacers. For example, Japanese Patent No. JP-2003-156750 proposes to arrange a spacer above a data line of a pixel array substrate. However, the area of the data line is limited. If there is a misalignment between the two substrates, the spacer will only contact one side of the data line and the support force will be uneven.
為了解決因對位誤差而產生的負面影響,許多改善的設計紛紛被提出。例如,中國專利CN100485502揭露一種同時配置四個墊高圖案以及四個間隙物的設計。另外,中國專利CN1982966揭露一種在間隙物周圍設置環狀或是多個墊高圖案的設計。然而,要實現這些設計需在畫素陣列基板上額外形成多個墊高圖案而不利於制程的簡化。 In order to solve the negative effects caused by the alignment error, many improved designs have been proposed. For example, Chinese patent CN100485502 discloses a design in which four padding patterns and four spacers are simultaneously arranged. In addition, Chinese Patent No. CN1982966 discloses a design in which a ring shape or a plurality of pad pattern is arranged around the spacer. However, to achieve these designs, it is necessary to additionally form a plurality of pad pattern on the pixel array substrate, which is disadvantageous for the simplification of the process.

At the first base If a registration error occurs during the assembly of the board and the second substrate, the contact of the two spacers with the total area remains constant. Therefore, the spacer of the present invention can provide ideal support.

圖1A繪示為本發明之一第一實施例的顯示面板的局部上視示意圖,圖1B為沿圖1A中剖線I-I’所繪示的剖面圖,而圖1C為圖1A中區域Z1的放大示意圖。請同時參照圖1A與圖1B,顯示面板100主要由一第一基板102、一第二基板104、一顯示介質106、一陣列矩陣110、至少一個間隙物組120以及一共通電極層132所構成。顯示介質106夾於第一基板102與第二基板104之間。陣列矩陣110配置於第一基板102上,而共通電極層132配置於第二基板104上。間隙物組120配置於第二基板104上以維持第一基板102與第二基板104之間的間距。 1A is a partial top plan view of a display panel according to a first embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 1B is a cross-sectional view taken along line II' of FIG. 1A, and FIG. 1C is a region of FIG. An enlarged view of Z1. Referring to FIG. 1A and FIG. 1B , the display panel 100 is mainly composed of a first substrate 102 , a second substrate 104 , a display medium 106 , an array matrix 110 , at least one spacer group 120 , and a common electrode layer 132 . . The display medium 106 is sandwiched between the first substrate 102 and the second substrate 104. The array matrix 110 is disposed on the first substrate 102, and the common electrode layer 132 is disposed on the second substrate 104. The spacer group 120 is disposed on the second substrate 104 to maintain a spacing between the first substrate 102 and the second substrate 104.
顯示面板100是借著共通電極層132與陣列矩陣110之間的電壓差來改變顯示介質106的狀態以進行顯示。具體而言,顯示介質106可以為一液晶層、一電漿層或一電泳顯示介質層。此外,顯示面板100更可包括一配向層134,其覆蓋共通電極層132。當然,第二基板104上也可配置有一彩色濾光層,或是陣列矩陣110中配置有彩色濾光層以達到多彩化的顯示效果。 The display panel 100 changes the state of the display medium 106 by the voltage difference between the common electrode layer 132 and the array matrix 110 for display. Specifically, the display medium 106 can be a liquid crystal layer, a plasma layer, or an electrophoretic display medium layer. In addition, the display panel 100 further includes an alignment layer 134 covering the common electrode layer 132. Of course, a color filter layer may be disposed on the second substrate 104, or a color filter layer may be disposed in the array matrix 110 to achieve a colorful display effect.
在本實施例中,陣列矩陣110包括多個掃描線組10、多條資料線 20、多個畫素組30以及多條縱向導線40。各掃描線組10包括相鄰配置的一第一掃描線12以及一第二掃描線14。資料線20交錯於掃描線組10。縱向導線40例如是平行資料線20配置而與掃描線組10相交。各畫素組30電性連接其中一個掃描線組10以及其中一條資料線20,而各畫素組30包括一第一畫素結構32以及一第二畫素結構34。陣列矩陣110例如是兩條掃描線(12、14)共用一條資料線(20)的設計。連接於同一條資料線20的第一畫素結構32以及第二畫素結構34分別地位於資料線20的相對兩側。因此,一條資料線20可以傳輸兩欄(column)畫素所需的資料訊號而有助於減輕驅動晶片的使用數量。另外,由圖1B可知,陣列矩陣110中還包括有至少兩層絕緣層112、114以維持各導電元件之間的電性獨立特性。 In this embodiment, the array matrix 110 includes a plurality of scan line groups 10 and a plurality of data lines. 20. A plurality of pixel groups 30 and a plurality of longitudinal wires 40. Each scan line group 10 includes a first scan line 12 and a second scan line 14 disposed adjacent to each other. The data lines 20 are staggered across the scan line group 10. The longitudinal wires 40 are, for example, arranged in parallel data lines 20 to intersect the scan line group 10. Each pixel group 30 is electrically connected to one of the scan line groups 10 and one of the data lines 20, and each pixel group 30 includes a first pixel structure 32 and a second pixel structure 34. The array matrix 110 is, for example, a design in which two scanning lines (12, 14) share a single data line (20). The first pixel structure 32 and the second pixel structure 34 connected to the same data line 20 are respectively located on opposite sides of the data line 20. Therefore, a data line 20 can transmit the data signals required by the two column pixels to help reduce the number of used driving chips. In addition, as can be seen from FIG. 1B, the array matrix 110 further includes at least two insulating layers 112, 114 to maintain electrical independent characteristics between the conductive elements.
除此之外,由圖1A繪示的陣列矩陣110的佈局方式可知,在本實施例中,資料線20例如具有由多條第一分支22以及多條第二分支24所組成的分支組(未標示)。各第一分支22包括包括一第一橫向部22a以及一第一縱向部22b。第一橫向部22b平行對應的第一掃描線12並與第一縱向部22a連接,且第一縱向部22a朝向對應的第一掃描線12延伸。各第二分支24則包括一第二橫向部24a以及一第二縱向部24b。第二橫向部24a平行對應的第二掃描線14並與第二縱向部24b連接,且第二縱向部24b朝向對應的第二掃描線14延伸。在實際的佈局設計中,第一分支22與第二分支24例如是由資料線20向兩側延伸出來的L型圖案。 In addition, the layout of the array matrix 110 illustrated in FIG. 1A shows that in the present embodiment, the data line 20 has, for example, a branch group composed of a plurality of first branches 22 and a plurality of second branches 24 ( Not marked). Each of the first branches 22 includes a first lateral portion 22a and a first longitudinal portion 22b. The first lateral portion 22b is parallel to the corresponding first scan line 12 and is connected to the first longitudinal portion 22a, and the first longitudinal portion 22a extends toward the corresponding first scan line 12. Each of the second branches 24 includes a second lateral portion 24a and a second longitudinal portion 24b. The second lateral portion 24a is parallel to the corresponding second scan line 14 and is connected to the second longitudinal portion 24b, and the second longitudinal portion 24b extends toward the corresponding second scan line 14. In the actual layout design, the first branch 22 and the second branch 24 are, for example, L-shaped patterns extending from the data line 20 to both sides.
另外,第一畫素結構32包括一第一主動元件32a以及電性連接第 一主動元件32a的一第一畫素電極32b,且第一主動元件32a連接對應的第一分支24。相似地,第二畫素結構34包括一第二主動元件34a以及電性連接第二主動元件34a的一第二畫素電極34b,且第二主動元件34a連接對應的第二分支24。 In addition, the first pixel structure 32 includes a first active component 32a and an electrical connection. A first pixel electrode 32b of the active component 32a, and the first active component 32a is coupled to the corresponding first branch 24. Similarly, the second pixel structure 34 includes a second active element 34a and a second pixel electrode 34b electrically connected to the second active element 34a, and the second active element 34a is connected to the corresponding second branch 24.
這樣的佈局方式可使陣列矩陣110具有可修補的特點。舉例而言,制程中的污染或是缺陷造成其中一條第一分支22與對應的主動元件32a中的汲極32c連接在一起(或是短路在一起),則可以將這一條第一分支24斷開。此時,主動元件32a仍可以具有切換開關的特性而有助於維持顯示面板100的顯示功能。另外,第二分支24若因制程缺陷而與其他金屬元件短路在一起,也可以藉由斷開第二分支24來維持顯示面板100的功能。 This layout allows the array matrix 110 to be repairable. For example, if the contamination or defect in the process causes one of the first branches 22 to be connected to the drain 32c of the corresponding active component 32a (or is shorted together), the first branch 24 can be broken. open. At this time, the active element 32a may still have the characteristics of the switch to help maintain the display function of the display panel 100. Further, if the second branch 24 is short-circuited with other metal components due to a process defect, the function of the display panel 100 can be maintained by disconnecting the second branch 24.
除此之外,請同時參照圖1A、圖1B與圖1C,間隙物組120配置於第二基板104上並用以維持第一基板102與第二基板104之間的間距。間隙物組120包括一第一間隙物122以及一第二間隙物124,且第一間隙物122以及第二間隙物124各自為一柱狀間隙物。在本實施例中,第一掃描線12與資料線20重疊以定義出第一平臺區A1,而第二掃描線14與資料線20重疊以定義第二平臺區A2,其中第一平臺區A1與第二平臺區A2呈現彼此對稱且共平面的關係。並且,第一間隙物122的第一端部122a部分地接觸第一平臺區A1以劃分出一第一接觸區C1以及一第一空白區B1。第二間隙物124的第二端部124a也部分地接觸第二平臺區A1以劃分出一第二接觸區C2以及一第二空白區B2。 In addition, referring to FIG. 1A , FIG. 1B and FIG. 1C , the spacer group 120 is disposed on the second substrate 104 and used to maintain the spacing between the first substrate 102 and the second substrate 104 . The spacer group 120 includes a first spacer 122 and a second spacer 124, and the first spacer 122 and the second spacer 124 are each a column spacer. In the present embodiment, the first scan line 12 overlaps the data line 20 to define a first land area A1, and the second scan line 14 overlaps the data line 20 to define a second land area A2, wherein the first platform area A1 The relationship with the second platform area A2 is symmetric and coplanar with each other. Moreover, the first end portion 122a of the first spacer 122 partially contacts the first land area A1 to define a first contact area C1 and a first blank area B1. The second end portion 124a of the second spacer 124 also partially contacts the second land area A1 to define a second contact area C2 and a second blank area B2.
另外,第一端部122a未接觸第一平臺區A1的一第一凸出區W1以及 第一空白區B1包圍第一接觸區C1,而第二端部124a未接觸第二平臺區A2的一第二凸出區W2以及第二空白區B2包圍第二接觸區C2。此外,第一凸出區W1係由第一接觸區C1朝一第一方向D1凸出,而第二凸出區W2則由第二接觸區C2朝一第二方向D2凸出。如此一來,第一間隙物122與第二間隙物124不會因第一基板102與第二基板104組立過程所發生的對位誤差而消減其支撐性。 In addition, the first end portion 122a does not contact a first protruding portion W1 of the first land area A1 and The first blank area B1 surrounds the first contact area C1, and the second end portion 124a does not contact a second raised area W2 of the second land area A2 and the second blank area B2 surrounds the second contact area C2. In addition, the first protruding portion W1 is protruded from the first contact region C1 toward a first direction D1, and the second protruding portion W2 is protruded from the second contact region C2 toward a second direction D2. As a result, the first spacers 122 and the second spacers 124 do not reduce the supportability due to the alignment error occurring during the assembly process of the first substrate 102 and the second substrate 104.
詳言之,在預定的佈局設計中,第一接觸區C1與第二接觸區C2分別預設為第一平臺區A1與第二平臺區A2的一半。實際上,制程中的對位誤差若使得第一間隙物122與第二間隙物124由預設位置沿著第一方向D平移,則第一凸出區W1朝向第一平臺區A1移動而增加第一接觸區C1的面積。同時,第二凸出區W2會遠離第二接觸區C2移動而減少第二接觸區A2的面積。由於第一間隙物122與第二間隙物124同時配置於第二基板104上,第一間隙物122與第二間隙物124因對位誤差中所產生的平移距離會相等。所以,第一接觸區C1的面積增加量等於第二接觸區C2的面積減少量。也就是說,在對位誤差發生時,第一接觸區C1與第二接觸區C2的總面積仍與預設值相等。 In detail, in the predetermined layout design, the first contact area C1 and the second contact area C2 are respectively preset to be half of the first platform area A1 and the second platform area A2. In fact, if the alignment error in the process causes the first spacer 122 and the second spacer 124 to be translated from the preset position along the first direction D, the first protruding region W1 moves toward the first platform region A1 to increase. The area of the first contact zone C1. At the same time, the second convex region W2 moves away from the second contact region C2 to reduce the area of the second contact region A2. Since the first spacer 122 and the second spacer 124 are simultaneously disposed on the second substrate 104, the translation distances of the first spacer 122 and the second spacer 124 due to the alignment error are equal. Therefore, the area increase amount of the first contact region C1 is equal to the area decrease amount of the second contact region C2. That is to say, when the registration error occurs, the total area of the first contact region C1 and the second contact region C2 is still equal to the preset value.
相似地,第一間隙物122與第二間隙物124因對位誤差而由預設位置沿第二方向D2平移時,第一接觸區C1的面積會減少,而第二接觸區A2的面積會增加。並且,第一接觸區C1的面積縮減量等於第二接觸區C2的面積增加量。因此,對位制程中無論第一基板102與第二基板104沿著第一方向D1或是第二方向D2發生對位誤差,第一接觸區C1與第二接觸區C2的面積總和都不會改變。在本實施 例中,第一方向D1與第二方向D2係平行於資料線20的延伸方向。所以,相較于習知的設計而言,顯示面板100對於資料線20的延伸方向上的對位誤差具有較高的容忍度。 Similarly, when the first spacer 122 and the second spacer 124 are translated by the preset position in the second direction D2 due to the alignment error, the area of the first contact area C1 is reduced, and the area of the second contact area A2 is increase. Also, the area reduction amount of the first contact region C1 is equal to the area increase amount of the second contact region C2. Therefore, in the alignment process, no matter the alignment error occurs between the first substrate 102 and the second substrate 104 along the first direction D1 or the second direction D2, the total area of the first contact region C1 and the second contact region C2 does not change. In this implementation In the example, the first direction D1 and the second direction D2 are parallel to the extending direction of the data line 20. Therefore, the display panel 100 has a higher tolerance for the alignment error in the extending direction of the data line 20 than the conventional design.
另外,在本實施例中,第一凸出區W1以及第二凸出區W2都為「凹」字型的區域。第一基板102與第二基板104的組立過程沿著一第三方向S1發生對位誤差時,第一接觸區C1與第二接觸區C2的面積都不會發生改變。相似地,第一基板102與第二基板104的組立過程沿著一第四方向S2發生對位誤差時,第一接觸區C1與第二接觸區C2的面積也不會發生改變。由圖1C可知,第三方向S1與第四方向S2實質上平行於掃描線組10的延伸方向。所以,顯示面板100對於掃描線組10的延伸方向上的對位誤差也具有較高的容忍度。 Further, in the present embodiment, the first convex region W1 and the second convex region W2 are both "concave"-shaped regions. When the alignment process of the first substrate 102 and the second substrate 104 occurs in a third direction S1, the areas of the first contact region C1 and the second contact region C2 do not change. Similarly, when the alignment process of the first substrate 102 and the second substrate 104 occurs in a fourth direction S2, the areas of the first contact region C1 and the second contact region C2 do not change. As can be seen from FIG. 1C, the third direction S1 and the fourth direction S2 are substantially parallel to the extending direction of the scanning line group 10. Therefore, the display panel 100 also has a high tolerance for the alignment error in the extending direction of the scanning line group 10.
整體而言,共平面的第一平臺區A1與第二平臺區A2的相對位置呈現對稱的關係,且第一間隙物122與第二間隙物124分別地與第一平臺區A1與第二平臺區A2部分接觸。此外,第一凸出區W1與第二凸出區W2的凸出方向相反。如此一來,顯示面板100在組立的過程中無論在掃描線組10的延伸方向或資料線20的延伸方向發生對位誤差,第一接觸區C1與第二接觸區C2的面積總和仍不會發生改變。所以,間隙物組120的支撐性不會因制程誤差而變差以維持顯示面板100的品質。 In general, the relative positions of the coplanar first platform area A1 and the second platform area A2 are in a symmetrical relationship, and the first spacers 122 and the second spacers 124 are respectively associated with the first platform area A1 and the second platform. Part A2 is partially in contact. Further, the convex directions of the first convex regions W1 and the second convex regions W2 are opposite. In this way, the alignment error occurs in the extending direction of the scanning line group 10 or the extending direction of the data line 20 during the assembly process, and the total area of the first contact area C1 and the second contact area C2 is still not changes happened. Therefore, the supportability of the spacer group 120 is not deteriorated by the process error to maintain the quality of the display panel 100.
圖2A繪示為本發明之一第二實施例的顯示面板的局部上視示意圖,圖2B為圖2A中區域Z2的放大示意圖。請同時參照圖2A與圖2B,顯示面板200與第一顯示面板100大致相同,所以兩者之間相同的元件將以相同的標號表示。在本實施例中,這些相同的元件可以 參照第一實施例的描述而不另作贅述。值得一提的是,顯示面板200中,第一平臺區A1係由縱向導線40與第一掃描線12重疊而定義出來的,而第二平臺區A2則係由縱向導線40與第二掃描線14重疊而定義出來的。 2A is a partial top view of a display panel according to a second embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2B is an enlarged schematic view of a region Z2 of FIG. 2A. Referring to FIG. 2A and FIG. 2B simultaneously, the display panel 200 is substantially the same as the first display panel 100, so the same elements will be denoted by the same reference numerals. In this embodiment, these same components can Reference is made to the description of the first embodiment without further elaboration. It is worth mentioning that in the display panel 200, the first platform area A1 is defined by the vertical wire 40 overlapping with the first scanning line 12, and the second platform area A2 is composed of the longitudinal wire 40 and the second scanning line. 14 overlap and defined.
在本實施例中,第一間隙物122與第二間隙物124也都分別地部分接觸第一平臺區A1以及第二平臺區A2。此外,第一接觸區A1與第二接觸區A2之間的關係與前述實施例所述相同。因此,即使制程中有對位誤差的發生,間隙物組120依然可以提供良好的支撐作用而有助於維持顯示面板200的品質。當然,由顯示面板200的陣列矩陣110佈局可知,顯示面板200具有驅動晶片需求數量少的特點以及具有可修補的特性。 In this embodiment, the first spacer 122 and the second spacer 124 also partially contact the first platform area A1 and the second platform area A2, respectively. Further, the relationship between the first contact area A1 and the second contact area A2 is the same as that described in the foregoing embodiment. Therefore, even if a registration error occurs in the process, the spacer group 120 can provide a good supporting effect to help maintain the quality of the display panel 200. Of course, it can be seen from the layout of the array matrix 110 of the display panel 200 that the display panel 200 has the characteristics of requiring a small number of driving wafers and has repairable characteristics.
圖3A繪示為本發明之一第三實施例的顯示面板的局部上視示意圖,圖3B為沿圖3A中剖線II-II’、III-III’所繪示的剖面圖,而圖3C為圖3A中區域Z3的放大示意圖。請同時參照圖3A、圖3B以及圖3C,顯示面板300與第一實施例的顯示面板100大致上相同,而兩者間相同的元件係以相同的元件符號標示。以下將針對本實施例與第一實施例之差異進行說明。 3A is a partial top view of a display panel according to a third embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 3B is a cross-sectional view taken along line II-II' and III-III' of FIG. 3A, and FIG. 3C It is an enlarged schematic view of the region Z3 in Fig. 3A. Referring to FIG. 3A, FIG. 3B, and FIG. 3C, the display panel 300 is substantially the same as the display panel 100 of the first embodiment, and the same components are denoted by the same reference numerals. The difference between the present embodiment and the first embodiment will be described below.
在本實施例中,掃描線組10其中一者的第一掃描線12未被資料線20以及畫素組30遮蔽的部分定義出第一平臺區A1,而對應的第二掃描線14未被資料線20以及畫素組30遮蔽的部分定義出第二平臺區A2。也就是說,間隙物組320中,第一間隙物322位於第一掃描線12未被資料線20以及畫素組30遮蔽的區域上,而第二間隙物324位於第二掃描線14末被資料線20以及畫素組30遮蔽的區域上 。另外,本實施例的第一凸出區W1與第二凸出區W2例如都是方形。 In this embodiment, the portion of the scan line group 10 in which the first scan line 12 is not obscured by the data line 20 and the pixel group 30 defines the first land area A1, and the corresponding second scan line 14 is not. The data line 20 and the portion shaded by the pixel group 30 define a second platform area A2. That is, in the spacer group 320, the first spacer 322 is located on the area where the first scan line 12 is not blocked by the data line 20 and the pixel group 30, and the second spacer 324 is located at the end of the second scan line 14. The data line 20 and the area covered by the pixel group 30 . In addition, the first protruding portion W1 and the second protruding portion W2 of the embodiment are both square, for example.
詳言之,第一端部322a所定義出的第一凸出區W1由第一接觸區C1沿一第一方向D1凸出,而第二端部324a所定義出的第二凸出區W2由第二接觸區C2沿一第二方向D2凸出。此外,第一空白區B1包圍第一接觸區C1未與第一凸出區W1鄰接的其他邊緣,而第二空白區B2包圍第二接觸區C2未與第二凸出區W2鄰接的其他邊緣。所以,第一基板102與第二基板104的組立過程中,無論在掃描線組10的延伸方向或是資料線20的延伸方向上發生對位誤差,間隙物組320都可以提供良好的支撐性而可以使顯示面板300具有相當不錯的品質及良率。 In detail, the first protruding portion W1 defined by the first end portion 322a is protruded from the first contact region C1 in a first direction D1, and the second protruding portion W2 defined by the second end portion 324a is defined. The second contact region C2 protrudes in a second direction D2. Further, the first blank area B1 surrounds other edges of the first contact area C1 that are not adjacent to the first convex area W1, and the second blank area B2 surrounds other edges of the second contact area C2 that are not adjacent to the second convex area W2. . Therefore, during the assembly process of the first substrate 102 and the second substrate 104, the spacer group 320 can provide good support regardless of the alignment error in the extending direction of the scanning line group 10 or the extending direction of the data line 20. The display panel 300 can be made to have a fairly good quality and yield.
由前述的實施例可知,本發明不需額外配置任何元件就可以使間隙物組具有良好的支撐性。不過,隨著不同的需求與設計,陣列矩陣中也可以額外設置平臺圖案以與間隙物組接觸。圖4A繪示為本發明之一第四實施例的顯示面板的局部上視示意圖,圖4B為沿圖4A中剖線IV-IV’、V-V’所繪示的剖面圖,而圖4C為圖4A中區域Z4的放大示意圖。請同時參照圖4A、圖4B以及圖4C,顯示面板400與第三實施例的顯示面板300大致上相同,而兩者間相同的元件係以相同的元件符號標示。以下將針對本實施例與第三實施例之差異進行說明。 It can be seen from the foregoing embodiments that the present invention can provide good support for the spacer group without any additional components. However, with different needs and designs, an additional platform pattern can be placed in the array matrix to contact the spacer group. 4A is a partial top view of a display panel according to a fourth embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 4B is a cross-sectional view taken along line IV-IV' and V-V' of FIG. 4A, and FIG. 4C It is an enlarged schematic view of the region Z4 in Fig. 4A. Referring to FIGS. 4A, 4B, and 4C, the display panel 400 is substantially the same as the display panel 300 of the third embodiment, and the same components are denoted by the same reference numerals. Differences between the present embodiment and the third embodiment will be described below.
在本實施例中,陣列矩陣110更包括多個平臺圖案432以及434。平臺圖案432配置於掃描線組10其中一者的第一掃描線12未被資料線20以及畫素組30遮蔽的部分上以定義出第一平臺區A1,而平 臺圖案434配置於第二掃描線14未被資料線20以及畫素組30遮蔽的部分上以定義出第二平臺區A2。平臺圖案432以及434例如為多個半導體圖案,或是平臺圖案432以及434可以與資料線20為同一膜層。另外,各平臺圖案432以及434例如包括一半導體圖案以及疊置於半導體圖案上的一導體圖案,且導體圖案與資料線20為同一膜層。也就是說,本實施例係利用陣列矩陣100原有的材料膜層來製作平臺圖案432與434。此外,平臺圖案432與平臺圖案434例如是平行於掃描線組10的延伸方向的長條狀圖案。 In the present embodiment, the array matrix 110 further includes a plurality of platform patterns 432 and 434. The platform pattern 432 is disposed on a portion of the scan line group 10 where the first scan line 12 is not covered by the data line 20 and the pixel group 30 to define the first platform area A1, and is flat. The stage pattern 434 is disposed on a portion of the second scan line 14 that is not blocked by the data line 20 and the pixel group 30 to define the second land area A2. The platform patterns 432 and 434 are, for example, a plurality of semiconductor patterns, or the land patterns 432 and 434 may be the same film layer as the data lines 20. In addition, each of the land patterns 432 and 434 includes, for example, a semiconductor pattern and a conductor pattern superposed on the semiconductor pattern, and the conductor pattern and the data line 20 are the same film layer. That is to say, in this embodiment, the original film layers 432 and 434 are formed by using the original material film layer of the array matrix 100. Further, the land pattern 432 and the land pattern 434 are, for example, elongated patterns parallel to the extending direction of the scanning line group 10.
間隙物組420的第一間隙物422的部分面積接觸第一平臺區A1的部分面積以定義出第一接觸區C1。此外,在掃描線組10的延伸方向上,平臺圖案432的寬度大於第一間隙物422的寬度。同時,第一接觸區C1位於平臺圖案432的中央,所以第一平臺區A1被劃分出兩個第一子空白區B1a以及B1b。第一子空白區B1a與第一子空白區B1b分別位於第一接觸區C1的相對兩側。相似地,在掃描線組10的延伸方向上,平臺圖案434的寬度大於第二間隙物424的寬度。所以,第二間隙物424接觸平臺圖案434的方式可將第二平臺區A2劃分為第二接觸區C2、第二子空白區B2a以及第二子空白區B2b,且第二子空白區B2a以及第二子空白區B2b分別位於第二接觸區C2的相對兩側。 A portion of the area of the first spacer 422 of the spacer group 420 contacts a portion of the area of the first land area A1 to define a first contact area C1. Further, in the extending direction of the scanning line group 10, the width of the land pattern 432 is larger than the width of the first spacer 422. At the same time, the first contact area C1 is located at the center of the land pattern 432, so the first land area A1 is divided into two first sub-space areas B1a and B1b. The first sub-space area B1a and the first sub-space area B1b are respectively located on opposite sides of the first contact area C1. Similarly, the width of the land pattern 434 is greater than the width of the second spacer 424 in the direction in which the scan line group 10 extends. Therefore, the manner in which the second spacer 424 contacts the platform pattern 434 may divide the second land area A2 into the second contact area C2, the second sub-space area B2a, and the second sub-space area B2b, and the second sub-space area B2a and The second sub-space areas B2b are respectively located on opposite sides of the second contact area C2.
在這樣的佈局設計下,第一基板102與第二基板104的組立過程中若沿掃描線組10的延伸方向發生對位誤差,則第一接觸區C1的面積不會改變,且第二接觸區C2的面積也不會改變。所以,若沿掃描線組10的延伸方向所發生的對位誤差並不影響間隙物組420的 支撐性。 Under such a layout design, if the alignment error occurs along the extending direction of the scan line group 10 during the assembly process of the first substrate 102 and the second substrate 104, the area of the first contact region C1 does not change, and the second contact The area of the area C2 will not change. Therefore, if the alignment error occurring along the extending direction of the scanning line group 10 does not affect the spacer group 420 Supportive.
此外,本實施例中第一間隙物422的第一端部422a未與第一平臺區A1接觸的部分例如定義出一第一內凸區W1a以及一第一外凸區W1b。第一內凸區W1a由第一接觸區C1朝第一方向D1凸出,而第一外凸區W1b由第一接觸區C1朝第二方向D2凸出。所以,無論第一間隙物422的位置相對于第一平臺區A1沿第一方向D1平移或是沿第二方向D2平移,第一接觸區C1都維持恒定的面積。 In addition, the portion of the first end portion 422a of the first spacer 422 that is not in contact with the first land area A1 in the embodiment defines, for example, a first inner convex portion W1a and a first outer convex portion W1b. The first inner convex region W1a is protruded from the first contact region C1 toward the first direction D1, and the first outer convex region W1b is protruded from the first contact region C1 toward the second direction D2. Therefore, regardless of whether the position of the first spacer 422 is translated relative to the first land area A1 in the first direction D1 or in the second direction D2, the first contact area C1 maintains a constant area.
相似地,第二間隙物424的第二端部424a未與第二平臺接觸的部分定義出一第二內凸區W2a以及一第二外凸區W2b。第二內凸區W2a由第二接觸區C2朝第二方向D2凸出,而第二外凸區W2b由第二接觸區C2朝第一方向D1凸出。也就是說,第一內凸區W1a與第二內凸區W2a的凸出方向相反,而第一外凸區W1b與第二外凸區W2b的凸出方向相反。在這樣的設計下,無論第二間隙物424的位置相對于第二平臺區A2沿第一方向D1平移或是沿第二方向D2平移,第二接觸區C2都維持恒定的面積。 Similarly, the portion of the second spacer 424 of the second spacer 424 that is not in contact with the second platform defines a second inner land W2a and a second outer land W2b. The second inner convex region W2a is protruded from the second contact region C2 toward the second direction D2, and the second outer convex region W2b is protruded from the second contact region C2 toward the first direction D1. That is, the convex directions of the first inner convex regions W1a and the second inner convex regions W2a are opposite, and the convex directions of the first outer convex regions W1b and the second outer convex regions W2b are opposite. With such a design, the second contact zone C2 maintains a constant area regardless of whether the position of the second spacer 424 is translated relative to the second land area A2 in the first direction D1 or in the second direction D2.
值得一提的是,第一平臺區A1與第二平臺區A2在本實施例中呈現對稱且共平面的關係。並且,第一端部422a以及第一平臺區A1未重疊的部分係被其他部分包圍,而第二端部424a以及第二平臺區A2未重疊的部分係被其他部分包圍。所以,第一接觸區C1與第二接觸區C2的面積總和不會因任何方向的對位誤差而改變。整體而言,無論制程中是否發生對位誤差,間隙物組420都具有理想支撐性而使顯示面板400具有良好的品質。 It is worth mentioning that the first platform area A1 and the second platform area A2 exhibit a symmetric and coplanar relationship in this embodiment. Also, the portions where the first end portion 422a and the first land area A1 are not overlapped are surrounded by other portions, and the portions where the second end portion 424a and the second land portion A2 are not overlapped are surrounded by other portions. Therefore, the sum of the areas of the first contact region C1 and the second contact region C2 does not change due to the alignment error in any direction. Overall, the spacer group 420 has ideal support regardless of whether or not a registration error occurs in the process, so that the display panel 400 has good quality.
圖5A繪示為本發明之一第五實施例的顯示面板的局部上視示意圖,圖5B為沿圖5A中剖線VI-VI’、VII-VII’所繪示的剖面圖,而圖5C為圖5A中區域Z5的放大示意圖。請同時參照圖5A、圖5B以及圖5C,顯示面板500與第一實施例的顯示面板100大致上相同,而兩者間相同的元件係以相同的元件符號標示。以下將針對本實施例與第一實施例之差異進行說明。 5A is a partial top view of a display panel according to a fifth embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 5B is a cross-sectional view taken along line VI-VI' and VII-VII' of FIG. 5A, and FIG. 5C It is an enlarged schematic view of the region Z5 in Fig. 5A. Referring to FIG. 5A, FIG. 5B, and FIG. 5C, the display panel 500 is substantially the same as the display panel 100 of the first embodiment, and the same components are denoted by the same reference numerals. The difference between the present embodiment and the first embodiment will be described below.
在本實施例中,間隙物組520的第一間隙物522以及第二間隙物524分別位於資料線20的第一分支22以及第二分支24上。也就是說,第一平臺區A1例如由第一分支22的第一縱向部22b定義出來,而第二平臺區A2則由第二分支24的第二縱向部24b定義出來。第一間隙物522局部地接觸第一平臺區A1以將第一平臺區A1劃分為第一接觸區C1以及第一空白區B1。同樣地,第二間隙物524局部地接觸第二平臺區A2以劃分出第二接觸區C2以及第二空白區B2。此外,第一間隙物522的第一端部522a未接觸第一平臺區A1的部分定義出第一凸出區W1,而第二間隙物524的第二端部524b未接觸第二平臺區A2的部分定義出第二凸出區W2。 In the present embodiment, the first spacer 522 and the second spacer 524 of the spacer group 520 are respectively located on the first branch 22 and the second branch 24 of the data line 20. That is, the first platform area A1 is defined, for example, by the first longitudinal portion 22b of the first branch 22, while the second platform area A2 is defined by the second longitudinal portion 24b of the second branch 24. The first spacer 522 partially contacts the first land area A1 to divide the first land area A1 into the first contact area C1 and the first blank area B1. Likewise, the second spacer 524 partially contacts the second land area A2 to define the second contact area C2 and the second blank area B2. In addition, a portion of the first end portion 522 of the first spacer 522 that does not contact the first land area A1 defines a first convex portion W1, and a second end portion 524b of the second spacer 524 does not contact the second platform portion A2. The portion defines the second convex region W2.
在本實施例中,第一凸出區W1的凸出方向與第二凸出區W2的凸出方向相反。並且,第一接觸區C1被第一凸出區W1與第一空白區B1包圍,而第二接觸區C2被第二凸出區W2以及第二空白區B2包圍。所以,組立第一基板102與第二基板104時若發生對位誤差,第一接觸區C1與第二接觸區C2的面積總和仍舊不變。換言之,組立制程中的對位誤差並不影響間隙物組520的支撐性,而有助於維持顯示面板500的品質。 In this embodiment, the convex direction of the first convex portion W1 is opposite to the convex direction of the second convex portion W2. Also, the first contact region C1 is surrounded by the first convex region W1 and the first blank region B1, and the second contact region C2 is surrounded by the second convex region W2 and the second blank region B2. Therefore, if a registration error occurs when the first substrate 102 and the second substrate 104 are assembled, the total area of the first contact region C1 and the second contact region C2 remains unchanged. In other words, the alignment error in the assembly process does not affect the support of the spacer group 520, and contributes to maintaining the quality of the display panel 500.
綜上所述,本發明在兩條掃描線共用一條資料線的陣列矩陣中定義出對稱且共平面的兩個平臺區。並且,成組的兩個間隙物部分地接觸兩平臺區的部分面積,而部分地凸出于兩平臺區。所以,對位誤差造成第一基板與第二基板相對偏移時,兩間隙物與兩平臺區接觸的總面積仍不改變。尤其是,對位誤差無論發生於平行掃描線的方向(一般稱為X方向)或是平行資料線的方向(一般稱為Y方向),兩間隙物與兩平臺區接觸的總面積仍不改變。也就是說,在製程中,X方向及Y方向的對位誤差都不會對本發明之顯示面板的良率造成負面的影響。所以,間隙物組提供的支撐作用不會受到對位誤差影響而有助於維持顯示面板的品質。 In summary, the present invention defines two symmetrical and coplanar platform regions in an array matrix in which two scan lines share a data line. Also, the two spacers in the group partially contact a portion of the area of the two platform regions and partially protrude from the two platform regions. Therefore, when the alignment error causes the first substrate and the second substrate to be relatively offset, the total area of the two spacers in contact with the two platform regions does not change. In particular, the alignment error does not change regardless of the direction in which the parallel scan lines (generally referred to as the X direction) or the direction of the parallel data lines (generally referred to as the Y direction), the total area of contact between the two spacers and the two platform regions. . That is to say, in the process, the alignment errors in the X direction and the Y direction do not adversely affect the yield of the display panel of the present invention. Therefore, the support provided by the spacer group is not affected by the alignment error and helps to maintain the quality of the display panel.
