Abstract
一种阵列基板、显示面板及显示装置。所述阵列基板包括:多条数据线(30)和多条栅线(10),所述多条数据线(30)和所述多条栅线(10)定义的多个像素单元,每一像素单元包括第一像素电极(41)、第二像素电极(42),以及至少三个薄膜晶体管,所述像素单元还包括:充放电元件,所述充放电元件与所述至少三个薄膜晶体管中的第三薄膜晶体管对所述像素单元进行充放电,使得该像素单元形成电压不同的第一电压畴区和第二电压畴区。
Description
本申请涉及显示技术领域,具体地,涉及一种阵列基板、显示面板及显示装置。
液晶显示器因其具有体积小、重量轻、功耗低、驱动电压低以及无辐射等优点,已广泛应用于电视、手机及公共信息显示等领域,是目前使用最为广泛的显示技术。对于液晶显示器而言,特别是针对大尺寸液晶电视之类的应用而言,要求液晶显示器具有宽阔的视角范围。
在传统的液晶显示器中,主要是利用像素电极和公共电极之间的垂直电场驱动液晶分子偏转。在此情况下,如果在偏离垂直于显示器平面的方向较大的角度下观看,则会存在对比度低、色彩失真的问题,即,存在可视角度(下文中简称为“视角”)狭窄的问题。
为此现有技术中提出了多种显示模式以克服视角过窄缺陷,多种显示模式包括:90°扭曲向列型液晶加补偿膜模式、像素电极图形化垂直排列模式以及利用边缘场的平面驱动模式等。
虽然上述显示模式先后被提出并逐渐实现产业化,但在实际使用中,上述各种显示模式仍然存在缺陷。90°扭曲向列型液晶加补偿膜模式对视角的改善十分有限,一般只应用于笔记本电脑和台式机监视器;像素电极图形化垂直排列模式需要将像素电极制作成复杂的狭缝结构,影响了光利用效率;利用边缘场的平面驱动模式要求工艺控制精度高,制造工艺难度大,且影响对比度。
综上所述,现有技术中用于克服液晶显示视角过窄缺陷的多种显示模式均存在相应的缺陷,无法有效的提高液晶显示器的显示视角。

第一辅助电极13,从而第一辅助电极13与第三薄膜晶体管的漏极323构成的电容器可以作为该像素单元的充放电元件。
下面将参考图1至图3对根据实施例一的阵列基板的制备过程进行详细说明。制备根据实施例一的阵列基板的步骤包括:
步骤一、在阵列基板的衬底1上溅射沉积金属层,该金属层例如铝(Al),并对沉积的金属层进行图案化以形成包括栅极11的栅线10和第一辅助电极13;
步骤二、采用等离子体增强化学气相沉积法(Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition,PEVCD)沉积栅极绝缘层21,所用材料例如是氮化硅;
步骤三、沉积半导体层,例如采用PECVD沉积非晶硅(a-Si)或溅射沉积铟镓锌氧化物(Indium Gallium Zinc Oxide,IGZO),并对沉积的半导体层进行图案化以形成有源层22;
步骤四、溅射沉积金属层,该金属层例如铝(Al),并对沉积的金属层进行图案化以形成包括连接部分31的数据线30、第一薄膜晶体管和第二薄膜晶体管的源极311、第三薄膜晶体管的源极312、第一薄膜晶体管的漏极321、第二薄膜晶体管的漏极322和第三薄膜晶体管的漏极323,将第三薄膜晶体管的漏极323形成为作为充放电元件的电容器的一极,而第一辅助电极13为该电容器的另一极;
步骤五、沉积钝化层23,例如采用PECVD沉积氮化硅或涂覆树脂层,并在钝化层23中形成第一过孔361和第二过孔362以分别暴露出第一薄膜晶体管的漏极321和第二薄膜晶体管的漏极322;以及
步骤六、溅射透明金属氧化物导电材料层,例如氧化铟锌(Indium Tin Oxides,ITO),并对透明金属氧化物导电材料层进行图案化以形成第一像素电极41和第二像素电极42,第一像素电极41通过第一过孔361与第一薄膜晶体管的漏极321电连接,第二像素电极42通过第二过孔362与第二薄膜晶体管的漏极322电连接,并且在第一辅助电极13与第二像素电极42之间形成存储电容。
根据本公开的各个实施例,可以采用铜(Cu),铝(Al),钼(Mo),钛(Ti),铬(Cr),钨(W)等金属材料制备栅线和数据线,也可以采用这些材料的合金制备栅线和数据线。此外,栅线可以是单层结构,也可以采用多层结构,例如Mo\Al\Mo,Ti\Cu\Ti,MoTi\Cu。
根据本公开的各个实施例,可以采用氮化硅或氧化硅制备栅极绝缘层21。此外,栅极绝缘层21可以是单层结构,也可以是多层结构,例如氧化硅\氮化硅。
根据本公开的各个实施例,有源层22可以采用非晶硅,或氧化物半导体;钝化层23可以采用无机物(例如氮化硅),也可以采用有机物(例如树脂);第一像素电极41和第二像素电极42采用透明导电的氧化铟锌(IZO)、ITO或其他透明金属氧化物导电材料制备。
根据本公开的实施例一,作为充放电元件的电容器的一极为第三薄膜晶体管的漏极323,另一极为第一辅助电极13。该电容器可以为像素单元的一个畴区(例如,低电压畴区)起分压作用。在对该畴区进行充电(即,栅线电压为高电平)时,需要额外对该电容器进行充电,从而减小了该畴区的电压。当栅线电压为低电平时,第三薄膜晶体管断开,从而不会对畴区电压产生影响。因此,形成了电压彼此不同的高电压畴区和低电压畴区,使得液晶分子存在多个取向不同的畴区,以实现液晶的宽视角显示,从而克服现有技术中液晶显示视角过窄的缺陷,有效提高液晶显示器的显示视角。
实施例二
图4为本公开的实施例二提供的另一阵列基板的结构示意图。

第四薄膜晶体管的栅极15可以与第二辅助电极14和栅线10同时形成,第四薄膜晶体管的有源层可以与第一至第三薄膜晶体管的有源层同时形成,并且第四薄膜晶体管的源极325和漏极324可以与第一至第三薄膜晶体管的源极和漏极同时形成,特别地第四薄膜晶体管的源极325与第三薄膜晶体管的漏极323相连。此外,补搭层43和44可以与第一像素电极41和第二像素电极42同时并且采用相同的材料形成。
图5示出了图4所示的阵列基板的修改实施例。
参考图5,在图5所示的修改实施例中不包括使第四薄膜晶体管的漏极324和第三辅助电极16(对应于图4中的第二辅助电极14)相连补搭层44。从而第四薄膜晶体管的漏极324和第三辅助电极16之间形成第一电容,同时第三辅助电极16与第二像素电极42之间形成存储电容。
根据本公开的实施例二,作为充放电元件的二极管(通过第四薄膜晶体管实现)与三个薄膜晶体管(即,第一至第三薄膜晶体管)对
像素单元的不同畴区进行充放电。例如,一个畴区(例如,低电压畴区)用一个薄膜晶体管来进行充放电,并且用另一个薄膜晶体管及该二极管对该畴区进行单向放电,从而形成了电压彼此不同的高电压畴区和低电压畴区,使得液晶分子存在多个取向不同的畴区,以实现液晶的宽视角显示,从而克服现有技术中液晶显示视角过窄的缺陷,有效提高液晶显示器的显示视角。
