- Figure 7 is an enlarged schematic view of the first via hole of Figure 6. detailed description
- FIG. 1 and 2 are schematic diagrams showing the hierarchical structure of a wiring area (PAD area) on the periphery of a display area of an array substrate.
- the structure in FIG. 1 is from bottom to top: substrate substrate 1, gate lead 2, gate insulating layer 3, passivation layer 71, organic insulating layer 8 and its via holes, pixel electrode 9 (electrode material is ITO) And a photoresist 11. Since the thickness of the organic insulating layer is 10 times the thickness of the other layers, a deeper hole is formed at the via of the peripheral PAD region.
- the thicker organic insulating layer causes the photoresist of the first transparent electrode to undergo insufficient illumination when subjected to vertical illumination, and thus is at the bottom of the hole (the area shown by the dotted oval frame in FIG. 1) ) There is some photoresist residue. Further, a portion of the ITO remains in the holes due to the residual photoresist during the subsequent wet etching process.
- a second passivation layer 72 is deposited after etching the pixel electrode 9, and then the second passivation layer 72 and the gate insulating layer 3 at the via are etched.
- the ITO remaining at the time of etching the pixel electrode 9 causes the gate insulating layer region which is not covered by the remaining ITO in the via hole to be etched later when the gate insulating layer 3 is etched. Therefore, after depositing the first connection electrode 12, the actual contact area of the first connection electrode 12 with the gate lead 2 is greatly reduced compared to the design contact area of the first connection electrode 12 and the gate lead 2.
- the connection electrodes connecting the gate metal layers are formed simultaneously with the common electrodes, and the material forming these electrodes is ITO.
- the method for fabricating an array substrate according to at least one embodiment of the present invention includes the following steps.
- a pattern including a thin film transistor (TFT), a gate lead 21, and a data line lead 61 is formed on the base substrate 1, and the gate lead 21 and the data line lead 61 are located in the PAD region of the array substrate.
- TFT thin film transistor
- the TFT is formed in a non-PAD region (i.e., display region) of the array substrate and includes: a gate electrode 2, a gate insulating layer 3, an active layer 4, and a source 5 and a drain electrode 6.
- the gate lead 21 is formed in the same layer as the gate 2
- the data line lead 61 is formed in the same layer as the source 5 and the drain 6.
- the display area is located in the middle of the array substrate for the liquid crystal display, for example, surrounded by the non-display area.
- the display area includes a plurality of sub-pixel units arranged in an array, and each sub-pixel unit includes a TFT as a switching element.
- Step 2 forming a pattern of the insulating spacer layer 8, the first transparent electrode and the passivation layer 72, such that the thickness of the insulating spacer layer of the PAD region of the array substrate 1 is smaller than the thickness of the insulating spacer layer of other regions, and corresponds to the gate
- the areas of the lead 21 and the data line lead 61 form a first via 15' and a second via 16, respectively, to expose the gate lead 21 and the data line lead 61.
- an example of the second step is as follows. Forming an insulating material
- the film is removed by a patterning process including photoresist coating, exposure, development, etching, photoresist stripping, etc. (for example, a Half Tone mask can be used to remove the first transparent layer) a connection region of the electrode and the drain of the thin film transistor, a region corresponding to the gate lead 21, and a region of the insulating material corresponding to the region of the data line lead 61 to form a connection via 14, a first sub via 15, And a pattern of the second sub via 16, and such that the thickness of the insulating material film of the PAD region is smaller than the thickness of the insulating material film of the other regions to form the insulating spacer layer 8.
- the insulating spacer layer can increase the distance between the pixel electrode and the source and drain, thereby reducing parasitic capacitance and reducing power consumption.
- a passivation layer 71 is formed on the substrate before the film of the insulating material is formed, that is, a film of an insulating material is formed over the passivation layer 71 to be patterned later.
- the insulating material film and the passivation layer 71 are patterned and removed, and the insulating material film and the passivation layer 71 in the corresponding regions are removed to form the connection via 14, the first sub via 15, and the second sub.
- the pattern of the vias 16, and the thickness of the insulating material film of the PAD region is smaller than the thickness of the insulating material film of the other regions, and accordingly, the sum of the thicknesses of the insulating material film and the passivation layer 71 of the PAD region is smaller than that of other regions.
- Fig. 3 shows a pattern after the formation of the insulating spacer 8, and the thickness h2 of the insulating spacer 8 of the PAD region A is smaller than the thickness hl of the insulating spacer 8 of the other regions.
- the thickness h2 can be half of hi.
- the thickness of the insulating spacer layer 8 of the non-PAD region is, for example, 20,000A to 30000A.
- the insulating spacer layer 8 may be composed of an organic insulating material.
- the pattern of the first transparent electrode is formed in the non-PAD region by a patterning process.
- the first transparent electrode is a pixel electrode 9, and the pixel electrode 9 is connected to the drain electrode 6 of the thin film transistor through a connection via 14.
- forming the pixel electrode 9 includes the following process.
- An ITO film is deposited on the surface of the substrate after the insulating spacer layer 8 is formed, and correspondingly, the first sub via 15 and the second sub via 16 are also deposited with ITO.
- a pattern of the pixel electrode 9 in Fig. 4 is formed by a patterning process. In the patterning process, since the insulating spacer layer 8 of the PAD region has a small thickness, the first sub via 15 and the second sub via 16 have a shallow depth, and the photoresist in the holes can be sufficiently exposed. And removed, so that the ITO in the first sub via 15 and the second sub via 16 is not left as a part of ITO as in FIG.
- the thickness h2 is half of the thickness hi, which allows the photoresist to be sufficiently exposed, the ITO is not easily left in the via holes, and the patterning by using the halftone mask is also facilitated.
- the process achieves patterning while improving the poor orientation (if the thickness difference is too large (eg, 2 ⁇ or more), the orientation is likely to be poor).
- a passivation layer 72 of a certain thickness is formed thereon.
- the passivation layer 72 may have a thickness of 2000 ⁇ to 4000 ⁇ . Etching is continued in a region corresponding to the first sub via 15 and the second sub via 16' by a patterning process until the gate lead 21 and the data line lead 61 are respectively exposed to form the first Via 15 and second via 16.
- Step 3 forming a pattern including the second transparent electrode, the first connection electrode 12, and the second connection electrode 13, and connecting the first connection electrode 12 to the gate lead 21 through the first via hole 15,
- the second connection electrode 13 is connected to the data line lead 61 through the second via hole 16.
- an example of the third step includes the following process.
- a tantalum film is formed on the passivation layer 72, and the second transparent electrode, the first connection electrode 12, and the second connection electrode 13 shown in Fig. 6 are formed by a patterning process.
- the second transparent electrode is the common electrode 10.
- the common electrode 10 is connected to a common electrode line (not shown), and the common electrode line is formed simultaneously with the gate 2 and the gate lead 21.
- the first connection electrode 12 is connected to the gate lead 21 through the first via 15, and the second connection electrode 13 is connected to the data line lead 61 through the second via 16, thereby finally forming the array substrate as shown in FIG.
- the first connection electrode 12 and the second connection electrode 13 has sufficient contact area with the gate lead 21 and the data line lead 61, respectively, which reduces defects such as high brightness of the display device and abnormal lighting.
- At least one embodiment of the present invention also provides an array substrate, as shown in FIG.
- the array substrate includes a thin film transistor, a first transparent electrode, a second transparent electrode, a gate lead 21, and a data line lead 61 formed on the base substrate 1.
