在附图中,有时为了明确起见,夸大表示了一个或多个构成要素的大小、层的厚度或区域。因此,本公开的一个方式并不一定限定于该尺寸,附图中多个部件的形状和大小不反映真实比例。此外,附图示意性地示出了理想的例子,本公开的一个方式不局限于附图所示的形状或数值等。
本公开中的“第一”、“第二”、“第三”等序数词是为了避免构成要素的混同而设置,而不是为了在数量方面上进行限定的。本公开中的“多个”表示两个或两个以上的数量。
在本公开中,为了方便起见,使用“中部”、“上”、“下”、“前”、“后”、“竖直”、“水平”、“顶”、“底”、“内”、“外”等指示方位或位置关系的词句以参照附图说明构成要素的位置关系,仅是为了便于描述本说明书和简化描述,而不是指示或暗示所指的装置或元件必须具有特定的方位、以特定的方位构造和操作,因此不能理解为对本公开的限制。构成要素的位置关系根据描述构成要素的方向适当地改变。因此,不局限于在说明书中说明的词句,根据情况可以适当地更换。
在本公开中,除非另有明确的规定和限定,术语“安装”、“相连”、“连接”应做广义理解。例如,可以是固定连接,或可拆卸连接,或一体地连接;可以是机械连接,或电连接;可以是直接相连,或通过中间件间接相连,或两个元件内部的连通。对于本领域的普通技术人员而言,可以根据情况理解上述术语在本公开中的含义。
在本公开中,晶体管是指至少包括栅电极、漏电极以及源电极这三个端子的元件。晶体管在漏电极(漏电极端子、漏区域或漏极)与源电极(源电极端子、源区域或源极)之间具有沟道区域,并且电流能够流过漏电极、沟 道区域以及源电极。在本公开中,沟道区域是指电流主要流过的区域。
在本公开中,为区分晶体管除栅电极之外的两极,将其中一个电极称为第一极,另一电极称为第二极,第一极可以为源电极或者漏电极,第二极可以为漏电极或源电极,另外,将晶体管的栅电极称为控制极。在使用极性相反的晶体管的情况或电路工作中的电流方向变化的情况等下,“源电极”及“漏电极”的功能有时互相调换。因此,在本公开中,“源电极”和“漏电极”可以互相调换。

图1为一种触控显示装置的触控结构示意图。图1所示的触控显示装置可以为采用自电容式触控技术的内嵌式触控显示装置。如图1所示,在内嵌式触控显示装置中,触控结构包括阵列排列的多个触控感测块(作为自电容电极)101、以及分别与触控感测块101电连接的触控信号线102。图1中的黑色圆点表示电连接。触控控制电路103位于触控显示装置的触控区域100的一侧。触控信号线102将触控感测块101电连接至触控控制电路103。在进行触控时,触摸物(例如,人的手指)触碰触控显示装置,位于触摸点处的触控感测块101的电容会发生变化,触控控制电路103通过检测触控感测块101的自电容变化情况来确定触摸位置。
由于每个触控感测块都要连接触控信号线,多个触控信号线都要连接到触控控制电路。当触控信号线的数量较多时,存在走线困难和负载大的问题。 而且,触控信号线的走线还会对像素开口率产生影响。在一些实施例中,当图1所示的触控结构应用于大尺寸触控显示装置(例如,8K分辨率的触控显示设备)时,触控感测块和触控信号线的数据都较多,导致触控显示装置的负载较大,会影响触控显示装置的性能。而且,数量较多的触控信号线连接触控控制电路,会造成扇出走线困难,并影响像素开口率。
本公开至少一实施例提供一种阵列基板,包括:衬底基板、设置在衬底基板上的多个第一信号线、多个第二信号线、多个触控信号线、第一透明导电层以及第二透明导电层。第一透明导电层和第二透明导电层位于多个触控信号线远离衬底基板的一侧。触控信号线与至少一个触控感测块连接,触控感测块包括彼此连接且间隔开的多个触控电极,第一透明导电层或第二透明导电层包括所述多个触控电极。多个第一信号线和多个第二信号线交叉形成多个子像素区域。子像素区域包括开口区域。触控信号线与至少一个子像素区域的开口区域在衬底基板上的正投影存在交叠。
本实施例提供的阵列基板,通过设置触控信号线与子像素区域的开口区域在衬底基板上的正投影存在交叠,方便触控信号线的走线排布。而且,通过将触控信号线设置在第一透明导电层和第二透明导电层靠近衬底基板的一侧,可以提高像素开口率。
在一些示例性实施方式中,本实施例的阵列基板可以采用自电容式触控技术。阵列基板包括像素电极和公共电极,公共电极被复用为触控电极。在显示阶段,通过触控信号线给公共电极提供公共电极信号,以实现显示功能;在触控阶段,利用触控信号线传输公共电极检测到的触控信号,以实现触控功能。在一些示例中,每个触控感测块可以包括多个被复用为触控电极的公共电极,例如可以包括几十乘以几十个子像素的公共电极。与触控感测块连接的触控信号线可以连接到集成显示和触控功能的驱动集成电路上。
在一些示例性实施方式中,包括本实施例的阵列基板的触控显示装置可以为液晶显示装置。触控显示装置可以包括本实施例的阵列基板、对置基板以及设置在阵列基板和对置基板之间的液晶层。在一些示例中,触控显示装置可以为高级超维场开关(ADS,Advanced Super Dimension Switch)类型的显示装置,或者,可以为高开口率高级超维场开关(HADS,High-Advanced  Dimension Switch)类型的触控显示装置。阵列基板包括的像素电极和公共电极用于产生控制液晶层中液晶分子偏转的电场。然而,本实施例对此并不限定。

在一些示例性实施方式中,第一透明导电层位于第二透明导电层靠近衬底基板的一侧。在子像素区域内,第一透明导电层在衬底基板上的正投影覆盖触控信号线在衬底基板上的正投影。在本示例性实施方式中,在子像素区域内,利用第一透明导电层对触控信号线进行遮蔽,可以提高像素开口率和透过率。
在一些示例性实施方式中,触控信号线所在膜层与第一透明导电层之间设置有机绝缘层。本示例性实施方式中,通过在触控信号线所在膜层和第一透明导电层之间设置有机绝缘层,可以降低触控信号线与第一透明导电层之间的电容。
在一些示例性实施方式中,有机绝缘层的厚度约为1微米至3微米。例如,有机绝缘层的厚度可以约为1微米,或2微米。然而,本实施例对此并不限定。
在一些示例性实施方式中,第一透明导电层包括:多个触控电极,第二透明导电层包括:多个像素电极;或者,第一透明导电层包括:多个像素电极,第二透明导电层包括:多个触控电极。然而,本实施例对此并不限定。

在一些示例性实施方式中,第一连接单元包括:第一连接线和第一连接电极。第一连接线与第一信号线为同层结构,第一连接电极位于第二透明导电层,第一连接电极配置为连接第一连接线与触控电极。在一些示例中,第一连接线可以与栅线为同层结构,且具有相同的延伸方向。在一些示例中,触控电极位于第二透明导电层,第一连接电极与触控电极可以为一体结构。在一些示例中,触控电极位于第一透明导电层,位于第二透明导电层的第一连接电极可以连接第一连接线和触控电极。然而,本实施例对此并不限定。
在一些示例性实施方式中,第二连接单元包括:第二连接电极;第二连接电极位于第二透明导电层。在一些示例中,触控电极位于第二透明导电层,第二连接可以与触控电极为一体结构。然而,本实施例对此并不限定。

在一些示例性实施方式中,如图2A至图3B所示,阵列基板包括:衬底基板10以及设置在衬底基板10上的多个第一信号线21和多个第二信号线41。多个第一信号线21位于第一导电层,沿第一方向X延伸,并沿不同于第一方向X的第二方向Y依次排列。多个第二信号线41位于第二导电层,沿第二方向Y延伸,并沿第一方向X依次排列。第一方向X与第二方向Y交叉,例如,第一方向X与第二方向Y相互垂直。第二导电层位于第一导电层远离衬底基板10的一侧。多条第一信号线21和多条第二信号线41交叉形成多个子像素区域。相邻的第一信号线21和相邻的第二信号线41相互交叉限定的区域为子像素区域。子像素区域包括开口区域和围绕开口区域的非开口区域。在一些示例中,非开口区域为被阵列基板的对置基板的黑矩阵遮挡的区域,开口区域为未被黑矩阵遮挡的区域。相邻的第一信号线21和第二信号线41都位于非开口区域中。在一些示例中,本实施例的阵列基板用于实现显示功能,每个子像素区域的开口区域配置于进行显示,非开口区域围绕开口区域且不进行显示。然而,本实施例对此并不限定。在一些示例中,阵列基板可以用于实现其他功能。
在一些示例性实施方式中,如图2A至图3B所示,第二信号线41在衬底基板10上的正投影与第一信号线21在衬底基板10上的正投影相交。例如,第一信号线21在与第二信号线41交叠的位置处具有第一宽度,第一信号线21在相邻的第二信号线41之间的位置处具有第二宽度。第一宽度和第二宽度均为第一信号线21在第二方向Y上的尺寸。第一宽度小于第二宽度。通过使第一信号线21在与第二信号线41交叠的位置处具有较小的宽度,有利 于减小第一信号线21和第二信号线41的交叠面积,以减小阵列基板的负载。
在一些示例性实施方式中,第一信号线21可以为栅线,第二信号线22可以为数据线。然而,本实施例对此并不限定。例如,第一信号线可以为数据线,第二数据线可以为栅线。
在一些示例性实施方式中,如图2A所示,阵列基板还包括多个触控信号线42和多个触控感测块。在一些示例中,多个触控感测块和多个触控信号线42一一对应连接。然而,本实施例对此并不限定。
在一些示例性实施方式中,如图2A至图3B所示,多个触控信号线42沿第二信号线41的延伸方向(即第二方向Y)延伸,并沿着第一信号线21的延伸方向(即第一方向X)依次排列。一个触控信号线42在衬底基板10上的正投影位于相邻两个第二信号线41在衬底基板10上的正投影之间。多个触控信号线42可以位于第二导电层中,与多个第二信号线41为同层结构。如图2A所示,触控信号线42位于与触控信号线42相邻的两个第二信号线41的中间。例如,触控信号线42与两侧相邻的第二信号线41之间的间距可以大致相同。通过将触控信号线42设置在两侧相邻第二信号线41的中间,可以减小第二信号线41两侧的电场之间的差异,有利于避免触控信号线42影响显示效果。
在一些示例性实施方式中,如图2A至图3B所示,第一信号线21具有多个镂空部210。多个镂空部210沿第一方向X排布。触控信号线42在衬底基板10上的正投影与第一信号线21的镂空部210在衬底基板10上的正投影存在交叠。镂空部210为贯穿第一信号线21的开口。通过设置镂空部210,可以减小触控信号线42与第一信号线21的交叠面积,从而减小阵列基板的负载。在一些示例中,镂空部210沿第一方向X上的长度大于触控信号线42沿第一方向X的长度。例如,镂空部210可以为矩形。然而,本实施例对此并不限定。
在一些示例性实施方式中,如图2A至图3B所示,触控信号线42与子像素区域的开口区域在衬底基板10上的正投影存在交叠。子像素区域的开口区域设置有像素电极61和触控电极51。触控电极51被复用为公共电极。在显示阶段,触控电极51作为公共电极,被施加公共电极信号。相互隔离的多 个触控电极51彼此连接形成一个触控感测块。例如,多个子像素区域内的彼此隔离的触控电极51可以彼此连接形成一个触控感测块。
在一些示例性实施方式中,触控感测块可以包括:依次排列的多个触控电极组、以及位于相邻的触控电极组之间且电连接相邻的触控电极组的第二连接单元。至少一个触控电极组包括:间隔开的多个触控电极51以及电连接多个触控电极51的第一连接单元。在一些示例中,以一个像素单元包括三个子像素为例,设置在一个像素单元的三个子像素区域内的触控电极51可以连接形成一个触控电极组。然而,本实施例对于一个触控电极组包括的触控电极的数目并不限定。
在一些示例性实施方式中,如图2A至图2D所示,第一连接单元包括:第一连接线22和第一连接电极62。第一连接线22与第一信号线21同层设置,且第一连接线22沿着第一信号线21的延伸方向(即第一方向X)延伸。第一连接线22在衬底基板上的正投影与第二信号线41在衬底基板10上的正投影相交。例如,第一连接线22在与第二信号线41交叠的位置处具有第三宽度,第一连接线22在相邻的第二信号线41之间的位置处具有第四宽度。第三宽度和第四宽度均为第一连接线22在第二方向Y上的尺寸。第三宽度小于第四宽度。通过使第一连接线22在与第二信号线41交叠的位置处具有较小的宽度,有利于减小第一连接线22和第二信号线41的交叠面积,以减小阵列基板的负载。在一些示例中,第三宽度可以小于第一宽度。
在一些示例性实施方式中,如图2A和图2D所示,第一连接线22与触控信号线42在衬底基板10上的正投影交叠。在第一连接线22与触控信号线42的交叠位置,触控信号线42可以通过第一过孔K1与第一连接线22连接,以实现触控信号线42与对应的触控感测块的连接。然而,本实施例对此并不限定。
在一些示例性实施方式中,如图2A所示,第一连接电极62位于第二透明导电层。第一连接电极62在衬底基板10上的正投影与第一连接线22在衬底基板10上的正投影存在交叠,第一连接电极62在衬底基板10上的正投影与触控电极51在衬底基板10上的正投影也存在交叠。第一连接电极62通过第三过孔K3与触控电极51和第一连接线22电连接。在一些示例中,第一 连接电极62可以为矩形。然而,本实施例对此并不限定。本示例中,通过第一连接电极62实现触控电极51与第一连接线22之间的电连接,通过第一连接线22实现多个触控电极51之间的电连接。
在一些示例性实施方式中,如图2A至图2D所示,第二连接单元包括:第二连接电极63和第三连接电极45。第三连接电极45可以位于第二导电层,第三连接电极45可以位于触控信号线42和相邻的第二信号线41之间。第三连接电极45在衬底基板10上的正投影可以与第一信号线21在衬底基板10上的正投影交叠,也可以与第一连接线22在衬底基板10上的正投影存在交叠。第一信号线21在与第三连接电极45交叠的位置处具有第五宽度,第五宽度小于第一宽度。第五宽度为第一连接线21沿第二方向Y上的尺寸。例如,第五宽度可以小于或约等于第二宽度。然而,本实施例对此并不限定。第二连接电极63可以位于第二透明导电层。第二连接电极63可以通过第四过孔K4与第三连接电极45和触控电极51连接。在本示例中,第三连接电极45可以在第二方向Y上从一个子像素区域延伸到另一个子像素区域,在单个子像素区域内,通过第二连接电极63实现第三连接电极45和触控电极51的电连接,从而实现相邻的触控电极组的电连接。在本示例中,利用第一连接单元和第二连接单元电连接彼此隔开的多个触控电极51的方式形成触控感测块,使得触控感测块具有网络状结构,从而使得触控感测块具有较小的电阻。
在一些示例性实施方式中,如图2A至图2E所示,在子像素区域的开口区域内,位于第一透明导电层的触控电极51在衬底基板10上的正投影覆盖触控信号线42在衬底基板10上的正投影。即,在子像素区域的开口区域内,触控电极51可以将触控信号线42屏蔽,从而避免触控信号线42的边缘与第二透明导电层的像素电极61形成凌乱电场,避免造成暗场和像素开口率损失。
在一些示例性实施方式中,如图2A所示,阵列基板还包括:多个开关元件。至少一个开关元件位于相邻的第二信号线41和触控信号线42之间。至少一个开关元件与第三连接电极45位于触控信号线42的相对两侧。开关元件可以为薄膜晶体管(TFT,Thin Film Transistor)。开关元件可以包括控制极、有源层31、第一极43和第二极44。开关元件的控制极可以与第一信 号线21为一体结构,即第一信号线21的与有源层31的交叠区域可以作为控制极。开关元件的第一极43可以与第二信号线42连接,例如可以与第二信号线42为一体结构。开关元件的第二极44电连接像素电极61。有源层31可以包括沟道区、第一掺杂区和第二掺杂区。沟道区可以不掺杂杂质,并具有半导体特性。第一掺杂区和第二掺杂区可以在沟道区的两侧,并且掺杂有杂质,并因此具有导电性。杂质可以根据晶体管的类型而变化。
在一些示例性实施方式中,如图3A和图3B所示,在垂直于阵列基板的平面内,阵列基板包括:依次设置在衬底基板10上的第一导电层、半导体层、第二导电层、第一透明导电层和第二透明导电层。其中,第一导电层和半导体层之间设置有第一绝缘层11,第二导电层与第一透明导电层之间设置有第二绝缘层12,第一透明导电层与第二透明导电层之间设置有第三绝缘层13。在一些示例中,第一绝缘层11和第三绝缘层13可以为无机绝缘层,第二绝缘层12可以为有机绝缘层。
下面参照图2A至图3B通过本示例性实施例的阵列基板的制备过程进一步说明本实施例的技术方案。本实施例中所说的“构图工艺”包括沉积膜层、涂覆光刻胶、掩模曝光、显影、刻蚀和剥离光刻胶等处理。沉积可以采用选自溅射、蒸镀、化学气相沉积中的任意一种或多种,涂覆可以采用选自喷涂和旋涂中的任意一种或多种,刻蚀可以采用选自干刻和湿刻中的任意一种或多种。“薄膜”是指将某一种材料在基底上利用沉积或涂覆工艺制作出的一层薄膜。若在整个制作过程当中该“薄膜”无需构图工艺或光刻工艺,则该“薄膜”还可以称为“层”。若在整个制作过程当中该“薄膜”还需构图工艺或光刻工艺,则在构图工艺前称为“薄膜”,构图工艺后称为“层”。经过构图工艺或光刻工艺后的“层”中包含至少一个“图案”。
本公开中所说的“A和B同层设置”是指,A和B通过同一次构图工艺同时形成。“相同层”不总是意味着层的厚度或层的高度在截面图中是相同的。“A的正投影包含B的正投影”是指,B的正投影落入A的正投影范围内,或者A的正投影覆盖B的正投影。
本实施例的阵列基板的制备过程包括以下步骤(1)至步骤(7)。
(1)、提供衬底基板。
在一些示例性实施方式中,衬底基板10可以为透明基底,例如,石英基底、玻璃基底或有机树脂基底。然而,本实施例对此并不限定。
(2)、形成第一导电层。
在一些示例性实施方式中,在衬底基板10上沉积第一导电薄膜,通过构图工艺对第一导电薄膜进行构图,形成第一导电层,如图2B所示。第一导电层包括:开关元件的控制极、第一信号线21和第一连接线22。开关元件的控制极与第一信号线21为一体结构。第一信号线21和第一连接线22均沿第一方向X延伸,并沿着第二方向Y依次排布。在一些示例中,第一信号线21具有多个镂空部210,多个镂空部210沿第一方向X依次排布。镂空部210为贯穿第一信号线21的开口。通过设置镂空部210可以减小第一信号线21与触控信号线42的交叠面积,以减小阵列基板的负载。第一信号线21在与第二信号线41交叠位置处的宽度小于两个相邻第二信号线41之间位置处的宽度,可以减小第一信号线21与第二信号线41的交叠面积,以减小阵列基板的负载。第一连接线22在与第二连接线41交叠位置处的宽度小于两个相邻第二信号线41之间位置处的宽度,可以减小第一连接线22与第二信号线41的交叠面积,以减小阵列基板的负载。
(3)、形成半导体层。
在一些示例性实施方式中,在形成前述结构的衬底基板10上依次沉积第一绝缘薄膜和半导体薄膜,通过构图工艺对半导体薄膜进行构图,形成第一绝缘层11以及设置在第一绝缘层11上的半导体层图案,如图2C所示。在一些示例中,第一绝缘层11上开设有多个第一过孔K1,多个第一过孔K1内的第一绝缘层11被刻蚀掉,暴露出第一连接线22的表面。
在一些示例性实施方式中,半导体层包括开关元件的有源层31。有源层31可以包括:沟道区、第一掺杂区和第二掺杂区。沟道区可以不掺杂杂质,并具有半导体特性。第一掺杂区和第二掺杂区可以在沟道区的两侧,并且掺杂有杂质,并因此具有导电性。杂质可以根据晶体管的类型(例如,N型或P型)而变化。在一些示例中,半导体薄膜可以采用非晶态氧化铟镓锌材料(a-IGZO)、氮氧化锌(ZnON)、氧化铟锌锡(IZTO)、非晶硅(a-Si)、多晶硅(p-Si)、六噻吩、聚噻吩等一种或多种材料,即本公开实施例适用 于基于氧化物(Oxide)技术、硅技术以及有机物技术制造的晶体管。然而,本实施例对此并不限定。
(4)、形成第二导电层。
在一些示例性实施方式中,在形成前述结构的衬底基板10上沉积第二导电薄膜,通过构图工艺对第二导电薄膜进行构图,形成第二导电层,如图2D所示。第二导电层包括:多条数据线41和多条触控信号线42、开关元件的第一极43和第二极44、以及第三连接电极45。多条数据线41和多条触控信号线42均沿第二方向Y延伸,且沿着第一方向X间隔排布。触控信号线42两侧均排布有数据信号线41。开关元件位于数据信号线41和相邻的触控信号线42之间。第三连接电极45排布在触控信号线42和相邻的数据信号线41之间,且第三连接电极45和开关元件位于一个触控信号线42的相对两侧。开关元件的第一极43与有源层31的第一掺杂区交叠并直接连接,第二极44与有源层31的第二掺杂区交叠并直接连接。开关元件的第一极43与相邻的数据线43可以为一体结构。开关元件位于数据线43和相邻的触控信号线42之间。第三连接电极45的一端位于第一信号线21和第二信号线41交叉形成的一个子像素区域内,另一端横跨第一信号线21和第一连接线22延伸到另一个子像素区域内。
(5)、形成第二绝缘层和第一透明导电层。
在一些示例性实施方式中,在形成前述结构的衬底基板涂覆第二绝缘薄膜,通过对第二绝缘薄膜进行掩模、曝光和显影,形成第二绝缘层12。
随后,在形成前述结构的衬底基板10上沉积第一透明导电薄膜,通过构图工艺对第一透明导电薄膜进行构图,形成第一透明导电层,如图2E所示。第一透明导电层包括:多个触控电极51。触控电极51位于子像素区域内,且可以覆盖子像素区域的开口区域。
在一些示例性实施方式中,第二绝缘层12可以采用聚酰亚胺、亚克力或聚对苯二甲酸乙二醇酯等有机材料。在一些示例中,第二绝缘层12的厚度可以约为1微米至3微米。第二绝缘层12的介电常数可以为无机材料SiNx的1/2。然而,本实施例对此并不限定。本示例性实施方式,通过设置采用有机材料制备的第二绝缘层,可以有利于降低触控信号线42与第一透明导电层的 触控电极51之间的电容。
在本示例性实施方式中,公共电极复用为触控电极,在显示阶段对公共电极施加公共电极信号以实现显示功能,在触控阶段对公共电极施加触控信号以实现触控功能。如此一来,无需额外制作触控电极所在的膜层,从而可以节省制作工艺且减小阵列基板的厚度。
(6)、形成第三绝缘层。
在一些示例性实施方式中,在形成前述结构的衬底基板10上沉积第三绝缘薄膜,通过对第三绝缘薄膜进行构图,形成第三绝缘层13图案,如图2F所示。第三绝缘层13上形成有多个第二过孔K2、多个第三过孔K3和多个第四过孔K4。多个第二过孔K2内的第三绝缘层13和第二绝缘层12被刻蚀掉,暴露出开关元件的第二极44的表面。至少一个第三过孔K3包括第一半孔和第二半孔。第一半孔内的第三绝缘层13、第二绝缘层12和第一绝缘层11被刻蚀掉,暴露出第一连接线22的表面,第二半孔内的第三绝缘层13被刻蚀掉,暴露出触控电极51的表面。至少一个第四过孔K4包括:第三半孔和第四半孔。第三半孔内的第三绝缘层13和第二绝缘层12被刻蚀掉,暴露出第三连接线45的表面,第四半孔内的第三绝缘层13被刻蚀掉,暴露出触控电极51的表面。
(7)、形成第二透明导电层。
在一些示例性实施方式中,在形成前述结构的衬底基板10上沉积第二透明导电薄膜,通过对第二透明导电薄膜进行构图,形成第二透明导电层,如图2A所示。第二透明导电层包括:多个像素电极61、第一连接电极62和第二连接电极63。像素电极61通过第二过孔K2与开关元件的第二极44连接。第一连接电极62通过第三过孔K3的第一半孔与第一连接线22连接,通过第三过孔K3的第二半孔与触控电极51连接。即,第一连接电极62通过第三过孔实现与第一连接线22和触控电极51的电连接。第二连接电极63通过第四过孔K4的第三半孔与第三连接电极45连接,通过第四过孔K4的第四半孔与触控电极51连接。即,第二连接电极63通过第四过孔K4实现与触控电极51与第三连接电极45的电连接。第三连接电极45的一端在一个子像素区域内通过一个第二连接电极63与一个触控电极组内的一个触控电极51 连接,第三连接电极45的另一端在另一个子像素区域内通过一个第二连接电极63与前述触控电极组的相邻触控电极组内的一个触控电极51连接。在本示例性实施方式中,通过第二连接电极63和第三连接电极45可以实现相邻触控电极组之间的连接,通过第一连接电极62和第一连接线33实现触控电极组内的多个触控电极之间的连接。
在一些示例性实施方式中,像素电极61具有多个狭缝。多个狭缝贯穿像素电极61。多个狭缝的延伸方向与第二方向Y交叉。像素电极61具有两种不同方向的狭缝,从而形成双畴结构。然而,本实施例对此并不限定。例如,像素电极可以形成单畴或多畴结构。
在一些示例性实施方式中,第一绝缘层11和第三绝缘层13可以采用硅氧化物(SiOx)、硅氮化物(SiNx)和氮氧化硅(SiON)中的任意一种或更多种,可以是单层、多层或复合层。第一导电薄膜和第二导电薄膜可以采用金属材料,例如银(Ag)、铜(Cu)、铝(Al)、钛(Ti)和钼(Mo)中的任意一种或更多种,或上述金属的合金材料,如铝钕合金(AlNd)或钼铌合金(MoNb),可以是单层结构,或者多层复合结构,如Ti/Al/Ti等。第一透明导电薄膜和第二透明导电薄膜可以采用氧化铟锡(ITO)或氧化铟锌(IZO)等透明导电材料。然而,本实施例对此并不限定。
在本示例性实施方式中,触控电极51位于衬底基板10和像素电极61之间。触控电极51为片状电极结构,不具有狭缝,每个触控电极51具有更大的面积,有利于增强触控性能。由于触控电极51距离衬底基板10更近且具有更大的面积,可以实现双侧触控的模式。换言之,在正面触控模式中,触控物(例如用户的手指)可以从衬底基板10设置有触控电极51的一侧进行触控;在背面触控模式中,触控物可以从衬底基板10未设置触控电极51的一侧进行触控。
本公开实施例的显示基板的结构及其制备过程仅仅是一种示例性说明。在一些示例性实施方式中,可以根据实际需要变更相应结构以及增加或减少构图工艺。例如,位于第一透明导电层中的触控电极可以通过设置在第二绝缘层上的过孔直接与第二导电层中的第三连接电极电连接,以实现触控电极组之间的电连接。又如,第一连接电极可以通过两个独立过孔分别与第一连 接线和触控电极连接。然而,本实施例对此并不限定。
本示例性实施例提供的阵列基板,通过设置触控信号线穿过子像素区域的开口区域,且一个子像素区域的开口区域仅穿过一个触控信号线,使得开口率损失区域仅为被触控信号线挡住区域,有利于改善较多触控信号线存在的走线困难和开口率受限情况。而且,通过第一透明导电层对触控信号线进行遮挡,可以避免凌乱电场造成暗场和开口率损失。另外,通过在第一透明导电层和触控信号线之间设置有机绝缘层,可以降低第一透明导电层和触控信号线之间的电容。
图4A为本公开至少一实施例的阵列基板的另一俯视示意图。图4B为图4A中形成第二导电层后的阵列基板的俯视意图。图4C为图4A中形成第一透明导电层后的阵列基板的俯视图。图4D为图4A中形成第三绝缘层后的阵列基板的俯视图。图5A为图4A中沿P-P方向的局部剖面示意图。图5B为图4A中沿R-R方向的局部剖面示意图。本示例的图示中示意了三个子像素区域以及其余子像素区域的部分结构。
在一些示例性实施方式中,如图4A至图5B所示,在垂直于阵列基板的平面内,阵列基板包括:依次设置在衬底基板10上的第一导电层、半导体层、第二导电层、第一透明导电层和第二透明导电层。其中,第一导电层和半导体层之间设置有第一绝缘层11,第二导电层与第一透明导电层之间设置有第二绝缘层12,第一透明导电层与第二透明导电层之间设置有第三绝缘层13。在一些示例中,第一绝缘层11和第三绝缘层13可以为无机绝缘层,第二绝缘层12可以为有机绝缘层。如图4A和图4B所示,第一导电层包括:多个第一信号线21和多个第一连接线22。半导体层包括开关元件的有源层31。第二导电层包括:多个第二信号线41、多个触控信号线42、开关元件的第一极43和第二极44。
在一些示例性实施方式中,如图4A和图4C所示,第一透明导电层包括:多个像素电极52。在子像素区域的开口区域内,像素电极52在衬底基板10上的正投影覆盖触控信号线42在衬底基板10上的正投影,以实现对触控信号线42的遮蔽,避免凌乱电场造成暗场和开口率损失。第二透明导电层包括:多个触控电极64、第四连接电极65和第二连接电极66。在本示例中,第三 绝缘层13上开设有多个第五过孔K5和多个第六过孔K6。至少一个第五过孔K5包括第五半孔和第六半孔。第五半孔内的第三绝缘层13和第二绝缘层12被刻蚀掉,暴露出开关元件的第二极44。第六半孔内的第三绝缘层13被刻蚀掉,暴露出像素电极52。第四连接电极65通过第五过孔K5的第五半孔与开关元件的第二极44连接,通过第五过孔K5的第六半孔与像素电极52连接。即第四连接电极65通过第五过孔K5实现像素电极52和开关元件的第二极44的电连接。第六过孔K6内的第三绝缘层13、第二绝缘层12和第一绝缘层11被刻蚀掉,暴露出第一连接线22的表面。触控电极64可以通过第六过孔K6与第一连接线22电连接。换言之,在本示例中,第一连接电极可以与触控电极64为一体结构。在本示例中,第二连接电极66与相邻两个触控电极64为一体结构,以实现相邻触控电极组的电连接。
在一些示例性实施方式中,像素电极52位于衬底基板10和触控电极64之间。触控电极64具有多个狭缝。多个狭缝的延伸方向与第二方向Y交叉。触控电极64具有两种不同方向的狭缝,从而形成双畴结构。然而,本实施例对此并不限定。例如,触控电极可以形成单畴或多畴结构。
本示例性实施例提供的阵列基板,通过设置触控信号线穿过子像素区域的开口区域,且一个子像素区域的开口区域仅穿过一个触控信号线,使得开口率损失区域仅为被触控信号线挡住区域,有利于改善较多触控信号线存在的走线困难和开口率受限情况。而且,通过第一透明导电层对触控信号线进行遮挡,可以避免凌乱电场造成暗场和开口率损失。另外,通过在第一透明导电层和触控信号线之间设置有机绝缘层,可以降低第一透明导电层和触控信号线之间的电容。
本示例性实施例的阵列基板的其余结构可以参照前述实施例的描述,故于此不再赘述。

关于本实施例的制备方法的详细说明可以参照前述实施例,故于此不再赘述。
本公开至少一实施例还提供一种触控显示装置,包括如上所述的阵列基板。
在一些示例性实施方式中,本实施例的触控显示装置还包括:至少一个第一触控控制电路和至少一个第二触控控制电路。阵列基板包括:第一触控区域和位于第一触控区域一侧的第二触控区域。第一触控控制电路位于第一触控区域远离第二触控区域的一侧,第一触控控制电路通过触控信号线与第一触控区域内的触控感测块连接;第二触控控制电路位于第二触控区域远离所述第一触控区域的一侧,第二触控控制电路通过触控信号线与第二触控区域内的触控感测块连接。
图6为本公开至少一实施例的触控显示装置的触控结构的示意图。如图6所示,触控显示装置包括:阵列基板、第一触控控制电路703、第二触控控制电路704。阵列基板包括:第一触控区域700a和位于第一触控区域700a一侧的第二触控区域700b。例如,第一触控区域700a为触控显示装置的上 半触控区域,第二触控区域700b为触控显示装置的下半触控区域。第一触控控制电路703位于第一触控区域700a远离第二触控区域700b的一侧,第一触控控制电路703通过触控信号线702与第一触控区域700a内的触控感测块701连接。第二触控控制电路704位于第二触控区域700b远离第一触控区域700a的一侧。第二触控控制电路704通过触控信号线702与第二触控区域700b内的触控感测块701连接。在一些示例中,第一触控控制电路和第二触控控制电路可以均为触控与显示驱动器集成(TDDI,Touch and Display Driver Integration)电路。
在一些示例性实施方式中,触控显示装置可以包括:阵列基板、对置基板以及设置在阵列基板和对置基板之间的液晶层。阵列基板包括的像素电极和公共电极(被复用为触控电极)用于产生控制液晶层中液晶分子偏转的电场。在一些示例中,对置基板可以包括衬底基板、以及设置在衬底基板上的黑矩阵。然而,本实施例对此并不限定。
在一些示例性实施方式中,触控显示装置可以为:液晶面板、电子纸、手机、平板电脑、电视机、显示器、笔记本电脑、数码相框、导航仪等任何具有触控和显示功能的产品或部件。
相较于图1所示的单边驱动方式的触控结构,本实施例提供的触控显示装置采用双边驱动方式。触控信号线的负载包括电阻和电容两部分,触控信号线的电阻与触控信号线的长度成正比。在图1所示的单边驱动方式下,触控信号线距离触控控制电路的最大长度例如为L,在触控显示装置的尺寸一致的情况下,采用本实施例的双边驱动方式下,触控信号线距离触控控制电路的最大长度可以为L/2,使得触控信号线的电阻下降50%。
在一些示例性实施方式中,假设触控显示装置包括M个触控感测块,每个触控控制电路具有N个触控信号通道,则触控显示装置需要M/N个触控控制电路。在图1所示的单边驱动方式下,M/N个触控控制电路要均匀排布在一侧,而在本实施例的双边驱动方式下,M/N个触控控制电路可以排布在触控区域的两侧,例如,每侧仅需排布M/2N个触控控制电路。在一些示例中,第一触控区域远离第二触控区域的一侧排布有M/2N个第一触控控制电路,第二触控区域远离第一触控区域的一侧排布有M/2N个第二触控控制电 路。如此一来,可以降低触控信号线的扇出走线难度。
在一些示例性实施方式中,以触控显示装置为86寸的8K产品为例,每个触控感测块的形状接近正方形,例如边长约为6.5毫米至7.0毫米,则整个触控显示装置可以包括约45000个触控感测块,即需要引出45000个触控信号线。8K产品的分辨率为7680*4320,横向一共有7680*3=23040个子像素。在采用图1所示的单边驱动方式下,则每个子像素区域中要穿过两根触控信号线;而采用本实施例提供的双边驱动方式,则第一触控区域和第二触控区域分别只需排布45000/2=22500根触控信号线,这样每个子像素区域中只需要穿过一根触控信号线即可,可以极大地提升像素开口率。
本实施例提供的触控显示装置,可以改善触控信号线数量较多存在的走线困难和像素开口率受限的情况。
本公开中的附图只涉及本公开涉及到的结构,其他结构可参考通常设计。在不冲突的情况下,本公开的实施例及实施例中的特征可以相互组合以得到新的实施例。
本领域的普通技术人员应当理解,可以对本公开的技术方案进行修改或者等同替换,而不脱离本公开技术方案的精神和范围,均应涵盖在本公开的权利要求的范围当中。
