具体实施方式
下面结合附图,对发明的具体实施方式作进一步描述。以下实施例仅用于更加清楚地说明本发明的技术方案,而不能以此来限制本发明的保护范围。
图1为根据本发明的实施例提供的阵列基板的结构示意图。如图1所示,本发明的实施例提供了一种阵列基板,该阵列基板包括衬底基板9、 设置在衬底基板9上的第一电极图案11、第二电极图案12和有源层图案5,包覆第一电极图案11的第一电极保护图案3,以及包覆第二电极图案12的第二电极保护图案4;其中,有源层图案5设置在第一电极图案11和第二电极图案12之间;第一电极保护图案3和第二电极保护图案4分别与有源层图案5的两侧连接。
阵列基板通过在采用低电阻特性的材料制成的第一电极图案11和第二电极图案12上形成包覆第一电极图案11的第一电极保护图案3,以及包覆第二电极图案12的第二电极保护图案4,在第一电极保护图案3和第二电极保护图案4之间形成有源层图案5,避免了第一电极图案11和第二电极图案12采用低电阻特性的材料时,因其表面氧化导致有源层图案5与第一电极图案11和第二电极图案12连接电阻过高的问题,提高了产品的良率。
第一电极图案11和第二电极图案12的材质为低电阻特性且活性较强的材质,例如铜或铜合金,本发明的实施例均以铜进行举例说明。有源层图案5的材质可以采用铟镓锌氧化物(Indium Gallium Zinc Oxide,简称IGZO)、铟锡锌氧化物(Indium Tin Zinc Oxide,简称ITZO)、氧化铟(In2O3)、以及氧化锌(ZnO)等透明金属氧化物半导体材料中的至少一种。
第一电极图案11除与衬底基板9接触的下表面外都被第一电极保护图案3所覆盖,且第一电极保护图案3向有源层图案5延伸出第一延伸部31,第一延伸部31被有源层图案5的第一侧覆盖;第二电极图案12除与衬底基板9接触的下表面外都被第二电极保护图案4所覆盖,且第二电极保护图案4向有源层图案5延伸出第二延伸部41,第二延伸部41被有源层图案5的第二侧覆盖。
为了防止在形成包覆第一电极图案11的第一电极保护图案3,和形成包覆第二电极图案12的第二电极保护图案4时,导致第一电极图案11和第二电极图案12的Cu被氧化,故上述阵列基板还包括:设置在第一电极图案11和第一电极保护图案3之间的第一缓冲层图案21,和设置在第二电极图案12和第二电极保护图案4之间的第二缓冲层图案22。该第一缓 冲层图案21和第二缓冲层图案22分别覆盖在第一电极图案11和第二电极图案12的上方,有效的防止了在形成第一电极保护图案3和第二电极保护图案4时,第一电极图案11和第二电极图案12表面的Cu被氧化。
可理解的是,上述第一电极保护图案3、第二电极保护图案4、第一缓冲层图案21和/或第二缓冲层图案22的材质为防止Cu氧化以及Cu扩散的材质,例如:钼铌合金(MoNb)或钛(Ti)。
阵列基板还包括:设置在第一电极保护图案3、第二电极保护图案4和有源层图案5上方的栅绝缘层图案6,以及设置在栅绝缘层图案6上方的栅极图案7和像素电极图案8。栅绝缘层图案6包括过孔,该过孔用于使像素电极图案8与第一电极保护图案3或第二电极保护图案4电连接。
在本发明的实施例中,上述的第一电极图案11和第二电极图案12可以为源极图案和漏极图案,也就是说,在第一电极图案11代表源极图案时,则第二电极图案12代表漏极图案,相应的,包覆第一电极图案11的第一电极保护图案3相当于与源极图案电连接,以及包覆第二电极图案12的第二电极保护图案4相当于与漏极图案电连接,像素电极图案8则与与漏极图案电连接的第二电极保护图案4电连接,相反的,若第一电极图案11代表漏极图案,第二电极图案12代表源极图案时,则像素电极图案8则与与漏极图案电连接的第一电极保护图案3电连接;应当理解的是,本发明的实施例的附图7中是以第一电极图案11代表源极图案,第二电极图案12代表漏极图案进行举例说明的。
图2为图1所示的阵列基板的制备方法的流程示意图。如图2所示,本发明实施例还提供了一种阵列基板的制备方法,在形成衬底基板9后,该方法还包括以下步骤:
步骤101、在衬底基板9上形成第一电极图案11和第二电极图案12;
步骤102、形成包覆第一电极图案11的第一电极保护图案3和包覆第二电极图案12的第二电极保护图案4;
步骤103、在第一电极保护图案3和第二电极保护图案4之间形成有源层图案5;其中,第一电极保护图案和第二电极保护图案分别与有源层 图案的两侧连接。
上述方法通过先采用低电阻特性的材料制成的第一电极图案11和第二电极图案12,然后分别在第一电极图案11和第二电极图案12上形成包覆第一电极图案11的第一电极保护图案3,以及包覆第二电极图案12的第二电极保护图案4,通过第一电极保护图案3以及第二电极保护图案4有效防止了第一电极图案11和第二电极图案12的Cu扩散;在第一电极保护图案3和第二电极保护图案4之间形成有源层图案5相对于直接在第一电极图案11和第二电极图案12之间形成有源层图案5,有效避免了刻蚀有源层图案5的过程中导致Cu氧化,进而避免了有源层图案5与第一电极图案11和第二电极图案12之间电阻过高的问题。
图3为制备本发明的实施例提供的阵列基板时完成第一步后的结构示意图。图4为制备本发明的实施例提供的阵列基板时完成第二步后的结构示意图。图5为制备本发明的实施例提供的阵列基板时完成第三步后的结构示意图。图6为制备本发明的实施例提供的阵列基板时完成第四步后的结构示意图。图7为制备本发明的实施例提供的阵列基板时完成第五步后的结构示意图。
下面对上述阵列基板的制备方法的流程进行详细说明,该阵列基板的制备方法的流程可以包括以下步骤:
步骤201、在衬底基板9上形成电极材料层1,在形成电极材料层1之后,形成缓冲材料层2,如图3所示。
举例来说,上述的衬底基板9可以为玻璃基板、石英基板或有机树脂基板。电极材料层1材质为低电阻特性且活性较强的材质,例如铜或铜合金,本发明的实施例均以Cu进行举例说明。第一缓冲层图案21和第二缓冲层图案22的材质为防止Cu氧化以及Cu扩散的材质,例如:钼铌合金(MoNb)或钛(Ti)等。
步骤202、通过一次构图工艺形成第一电极图案11、第二电极图案12以及覆盖在第一电极图案11表面上的第一缓冲层图案21和覆盖在第二电极图案12表面上的第二缓冲层图案22,如图4所示。
步骤203、形成包覆第一缓冲层图案21和第一电极图案11的第一电极保护图案3,以及形成包覆第二缓冲层图案22和第二电极图案12的第二电极保护图案4。
如图5所示,上述第一电极保护图案3包覆除与衬底基板9贴覆部分的第一电极图案11,且第一电极保护图案3的两端包括设置在衬底基板9上的第一延伸部31。第二电极保护图案4包覆除与衬底基板9贴覆部分的第二电极图案12,且第二电极图案12的两端包括设置在衬底基板9上的第二延伸部41。第一电极保护图案3的第一延伸部31与第二电极保护图案4的第二延伸部41分别与有源层图案5的两侧连接。
上述步骤103中形成第一电极保护图案3和第二电极保护图案4可以理解为在第一电极图案11、第一缓冲层图案21、第二电极图案12、第二缓冲层图案22上沉积电极保护材料层,然后通过刻蚀的构图工艺形成第一电极保护图案3和第二电极保护图案4。该实施方式仅用于举例说明,本发明的实施例不对其具体的实施方式进行限定。
上述第一电极保护图案3和第二电极保护图案4的材质为防止Cu氧化以及Cu扩散的材质,例如:钼铌合金(MoNb)或钛(Ti)等。
在上述步骤201至步骤203中,采用低电阻特性的电极材料层1可以制造出分辨率更高、性能更好,且尺寸较大的阵列基板。在电极材料层上形成缓冲材料层2,可以有效的防止电极材料层的Cu扩散,以及在后续刻蚀形成第一电极保护图案3和第二电极保护图案4的过程中,防止大面积的Cu被氧化。通过一次构图工艺形成第一电极图案11、第二电极图案12以及覆盖在第一电极图案表面上的第一缓冲层图案21和覆盖在第二电极图案表面上的第二缓冲层图案22,在简化形成第一电极图案11和第二电极图案12的工艺的同时还有效的防止了第一电极图案11和第二电极图案12的Cu扩散和氧化的问题。
步骤204、在第一电极保护图案3和第二电极保护图案4之间形成分别与第一电极保护图案3和第二电极保护图案4相连的有源层图案5,如图6所示。
步骤205、在第一电极保护图案3、第二电极保护图案4、有源层图案5上沉积栅绝缘层,并对栅绝缘层做图案化处理形成包括过孔的栅绝缘层图案6,如图7所示。
步骤206、在栅绝缘层图案6上沉积透明导电层(例如:ITO),并对该透明导电层通过同一次构图工艺形成栅极图案7和像素电极图案8,如图1所示。像素电极图案8通过过孔与第一电极保护图案3或第二电极保护图案4电连接。
可以理解的是,采用上述第一电极保护图案3对第一电极图案11进行保护并且第一电极保护图案3与第一电极图案11电连接,以及采用第二电极保护图案4对第二电极图案12进行保护并且第二电极保护图案4与第二电极图案12电连接,从而使像素电极图案8在与第一电极保护图案3或第二电极保护图案4电连接,相当于与第一电极图案11或第二电极图案12电连接,防止了在第一电极图案11或第二电极图案12上的Cu扩散或氧化时,导致像素电极图案8无法与第一电极图案11或第二电极图案12电连接的问题,进而提高了产品的良率。
上述栅极图案7和像素电极图案8的材质相同,且通过同一次构图工艺形成,相对于单独形成栅极图案7和像素电极图案8简化了工艺。
在本发明的实施例中,上述的第一电极图案11和第二电极图案12可以为源极图案和漏极图案,也就是说,在第一电极图案11代表源极图案时,则第二电极图案12代表漏极图案,相应的,包覆第一电极图案11的第一电极保护图案3相当于与源极图案电连接,包覆第二电极图案12的第二电极保护图案4相当于与漏极图案电连接,像素电极图案8则与与漏极图案电连接的第二电极保护图案4电连接,相反的,若第一电极图案11代表漏极图案,第二电极图案12代表源极图案时,则像素电极图案8则与与漏极图案电连接的第一电极保护图案3电连接。应当理解的是,本发明的实施例的附图1中是以第一电极图案11代表源极图案,第二电极图案12代表漏极图案进行举例说明的。
上述步骤201至步骤206中,上述电极材料层1、缓冲材料层2、电极 保护层、栅绝缘层、透明导电层均可以通过真空沉积或磁控溅射的方式形成。上述第一电极图案、第二电极图案、第一缓冲层图案、第二缓冲层图案、第一电极保护图案、第二电极保护图案、栅绝缘层图案、栅极图案和像素电极图案均可以通过刻蚀的构图工艺形成,本发明的实施例不再进行详细说明。
另外,需要说明的是,电极材料层1可以理解为包括像素电极图案8或预形成像素电极图案8的层,缓冲材料层2可以理解为包括第一缓冲层图案21和第二缓冲层图案22或预形成第一缓冲层图案21和第二缓冲层图案22的层。
