【具体实施方式】
下面将结合本发明实施例中的附图,对本发明所提供的示例性的实施例的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述。
图2是本发明一实施例的阵列基板的结构剖视图。如图2所示,所述阵列基板20(Array Substrate,又称Thin Film Transistor Substrate,TFT基板或薄膜晶体管基板)包括衬底基材21以及形成于衬底基材21上的薄膜晶体管22、平坦钝化层(Over coat Layer)23以及像素电极24,薄膜晶体管22包括栅极221、栅极绝缘层222、主动层223以及源极224和漏极225。其中,栅极221形成于衬底基材21上;栅极绝缘层222形成于衬底基材21上并覆盖栅极221;主动层223形成于栅极绝缘层222上且位于栅极221的上方,主动层223背向栅极221的一侧形成有沟道P,该沟道P为薄膜晶体管22的背沟道;源极224和漏极225形成于主动层223上且分别位于主动层223的两端;平坦钝化层23形成于源极224、漏极225、主动层223以及未被薄膜晶体管22覆盖的栅极绝缘层222上,平坦钝化层23形成有暴露漏极225表面的接触孔O1;像素电极24形成于平坦钝化层23上以及接触孔O1内,像素电极24可以通过接触孔O1与薄膜晶体管22的漏极225电连接。
与图1所示现有技术不同的是,在本发明实施例的薄膜晶体管22的结构中,主动层223在衬底基材21上的正投影覆盖栅极221以及位于栅极221两侧的衬底基材21,且沟道P在衬底基材21上的正投影位于栅极221所在区域之内,其中所述正投影指的是沿垂直于衬底基材21的视线方向主动层223以及沟道P在衬底基材21上的投影。
结合图2所示,a表示栅极221所对应区域,b表示主动层223所对应区域,c表示沟道P所对应区域,其中a、b、c也可分别表示栅极221、主 动层223、沟道P沿图中水平方向的宽度。也就是说,本发明实施例设计栅极221的宽度a小于主动层223的宽度b且大于沟道P的宽度c,即c<a<b。与现有技术相比,本发明实施例通过缩短栅极221的宽度,减小了源极224与栅极221(在衬底基材21上的正投影)的重叠区域以及漏极225与栅极221(在衬底基材21上的正投影)的重叠区域之和,从而能够缩小源极224和漏极225与栅极221之间的寄生电容,提升具有阵列基板20的液晶显示面板及液晶显示装置的显示品质。
另外,图2所示d和e表示欧姆接触区域,其中d表示背光照射区,e表示栅极遮挡区,当然d、e也可分别表示背光照射区、栅极遮挡区沿图中水平方向的宽度,e=a-c。在薄膜晶体管22导通时,通过对栅极221施加电压,从而为区域c和区域e的主动层223提供载子;通过背光照射激发,从而为栅极221遮挡之外且位于区域d的主动层223提供载子。在薄膜晶体管22关闭时,由不透光的栅极221遮挡主动层223,从而降低薄膜晶体管22在区域c和区域e之处的漏电流。
在本实施例中,主动层223包括依次形成于栅极绝缘层222上的多晶硅(a-Si)半导体层2231、欧姆接触层2232。其中,欧姆接触层2232包括区域d和区域e,且为多晶硅半导体层2231进行重掺杂之后所形成,多晶硅半导体层2231包括但不限于金属氧化物半导体层,例如包含铟镓氧化物(IGO)、铟锌氧化物(IZO)、铟镓锌氧化物(IGZO)、铟锡氧化物(ITO),多晶硅半导体层2231背向栅极221的一侧形成有所述沟道P,欧姆接触层2232位于沟道P上方且形成有与沟道P相通的狭缝O2。由于金属氧化物半导体层的载子迁移率高,因此本发明实施例即使在薄膜晶体管22的结构设计上使得源极224和漏极225与栅极221的重叠区域较小,也能够在主动层223中形成导电通道。
本发明实施例的首要目的是通过设计栅极221的宽度a小于主动层223的宽度b以减小源极224和漏极225与栅极221的重叠区域,核心在于栅极221的宽度a小于主动层223的宽度b,而对于源极224和漏极225的宽度无必然限制,当然,为了进一步减小源极224和漏极225与栅极221的重叠区域,本发明实施例在上述基础上还可以进行其他设计,例如:第一种,源极224在衬底基材21上的正投影与栅极221部分重叠,而漏极225 在衬底基材21上的正投影与栅极221无重叠;第二种,漏极225在衬底基材21上的正投影与栅极221部分重叠,而源极224在衬底基材21上的正投影与栅极221无重叠;第三种,源极224和漏极225在衬底基材21上的正投影与栅极221均无重叠。
当然,阵列基板20还具有现有技术的其他结构,例如还包括形成于阵列基板20中的公共电极以及位于公共电极与像素电极24之间的保护层。图3是本发明另一实施例的阵列基板的结构剖视图。为描述各实施例之间的不同,相同结构元件采用相同标号。如图3所示,在图2所示实施例的描述基础上但与之不同的是,本实施例的阵列基板20还包括形成于平坦钝化层23和像素电极24之间的公共电极30和绝缘层31,即:公共电极30形成于平坦钝化层23上;绝缘层31形成于公共电极30上,其中绝缘层31又称PV(Passivation,钝化)层;像素电极24形成于绝缘层31和平坦钝化层23上以及接触孔O1内,像素电极24可以通过接触孔O1与薄膜晶体管22的漏极225电连接。
图4是本发明又一实施例的阵列基板的结构剖视图。为描述各实施例之间的不同,相同结构元件采用相同标号。如图4所示,在图2所示实施例的描述基础上但与之不同的是,本实施例的阵列基板20还包括形成于沟道P上的保护层41。由于形成沟道P的半导体是一种对水和氧极其敏感的材料,水分子和氧分子极易对其电学性能产生影响,因此为了提高沟道P的电学稳定性,需要在沟道P上形成一保护层41,也可称为水氧阻隔层或刻蚀阻挡(Etch Stop Layer,ESL)层。
保护层41的材质包括但不限于为氧化硅SiO2、氮化硅Si3N4,可采用化学气相沉积(Chemical vapor deposition,CVD)、原子层外延(Atom Layer Deposition,ALD)、磁控溅射(Sputter)等方式制得。
当然,保护层41的表面还可以包括Al2O3层,Al2O3层由采用磁控溅射法形成的Al层在氧气浓度高于21%的氛围中以300~400℃的温度进行热退火处理制得。具体地,Al原子在氧气O2浓度高于21%的富氧氛围中发生氧化反应,能够最大程度的生成Al2O3,同时300~400℃的温度能够促使所述氧化反应以使Al层中尽可能多的Al原子被氧化,从而最大程度的保证所形成的Al2O3层的致密性,使其膜质较高,进一步确保沟道P的电学性能。 另外,在富氧氛围中进行热退火处理可同时具有三个作用:一是,降低沟道P的缺陷态密度,获得良好的主动层电学特性;二是,一定程度上修复在主动层223的沉积和图案化过程中,磁控溅射或者刻蚀等制造工艺对沟道P造成的损伤;三是,将Al层氧化为膜质较高的Al2O3层,以形成较好的沟道保护层。
本发明实施例还提供一种如图5所示的液晶显示面板。如图5所示,所述液晶显示面板50包括相对间隔设置的阵列基板51和彩膜基板(Color Filter,CF基板或彩色滤光片基板)52,以及夹持于阵列基板51和彩膜基板52之间的液晶(液晶分子)53,其中,液晶53位于阵列基板51和彩膜基板52叠加组合成的液晶盒内。所述阵列基板51包括上述任一实施例的阵列基板20,因此具有与其相同的有益效果。
本发明实施例还提供一种如图6所示的液晶显示装置60,该液晶显示装置60包括上述液晶显示面板50以及为液晶显示面板50提供光线的背光模组61。由于该液晶显示装置60也具有阵列基板20的上述设计,因此亦具有相同的有益效果。
应理解,以上所述仅为本发明的实施例,并非因此限制本发明的专利范围,凡是利用本发明说明书及附图内容所作的等效结构或等效流程变换,例如各实施例之间技术特征的相互结合,或直接或间接运用在其他相关的技术领域,均同理包括在本发明的专利保护范围内。
