  • the bonding pins of the IC bonding region (IC bonding region) of the display substrate are covered by an organic material film layer (eg, a planarization layer).
  • an organic material film layer eg, a planarization layer. It is found through research that in the FMLOC process, when a spacer layer (ie, a barrier layer) is formed in the IC bonding area, the adhesion between the spacer layer and the organic material film layer is poor. Also, the edge portion of the organic material film layer not covered by the spacer layer is exposed. All of these make the organic material film easily absorb water in the water washing step in the FMLOC process. When subsequent tests are performed on the display substrate, such as the reliability test of high temperature and high humidity, the moisture absorbed in the organic material film layer is thermally expanded, which may cause the spacer layer and metal layer in the IC bonding area to peel off.
  • the spacer layer when the spacer layer is formed, the spacer layer is made to cover the edge portion of the organic material film layer, so as not to be exposed. It has been found through research that when this structure is adopted, the metal layer covered on the junction pins of the IC bonding area will also cover the spacer layer covered with the organic material film layer, so its edge area is not covered with the spacer layer and the organic material. The central area of the material film layer can reach a height difference of 1.2 ⁇ m. In this way, when the electrical connection between the metal layer and the pins of the IC chip is realized through the Anisotropic Conductive Film (ACF), the conductive particles in the edge region of the ACF corresponding to the metal layer are subjected to greater force and are easily pressed.

在有些相关技术中,显示基板的IC接合区域(IC bonding区域)的接合部引脚由有机材料膜层(例如平坦化层)进行包覆。经研究发现,在FMLOC工艺中,在IC接合区域形成间隔层(即barrier层)时,间隔层与有机材料膜层的粘附力较差。而且,有机材料膜层未被间隔层包覆的边缘部分裸露。这都使得有机材料膜层容易在FMLOC工艺中的水洗步骤中吸水。而当后续显示基板进行有关测试,例如高温高湿的信赖性测试时,有机材料膜层内吸收的水分受热膨胀,可能导致IC接合区域的间隔层以及金属层等剥落。
在另一些相关技术中,在形成间隔层时,使间隔层包覆有机材料膜层的边缘部分,不使其裸露。经研究发现,在采用这种结构时,IC接合区域的接合部引脚上覆盖的 金属层也会覆盖在包覆有机材料膜层的间隔层上,因此其边缘区域与未覆盖间隔层和有机材料膜层的中心区域可达到1.2μm的高度差。这样在通过异向导电胶膜(Anisotropic Conductive Film,简称ACF)实现金属层与IC芯片的管脚之间的电连接时,ACF对应于金属层的边缘区域的导电粒子受力较大,容易压裂间隔层,这使得有机材料膜层容易在FMLOC工艺中的水洗步骤中经过间隔层的裂缝吸水。而当后续显示基板进行有关测试,例如高温高湿的信赖性测试时,有机材料膜层内吸收的水分受热膨胀,可能导致IC接合区域的间隔层以及金属层等剥落。
有鉴于此,本公开实施例提供一种显示面板、显示装置及显示面板的制造方法,能够改善IC接合区域的间隔层以及金属层剥落等不良情形。
图1是根据本公开显示面板的一实施例中显示基板的整体布局及IC接合部的局部示意图。图2是根据本公开显示面板的一实施例中IC接合部所在区域的AA截面结构示意图。
参考图1,在一些实施例中,显示面板包括显示基板1。显示基板1具有显示区10A和围绕所述显示区10A的非显示区10B。显示区10A用于显示图像,非显示区10B用于布置相关电路和相关电子元件,以支持显示区10A的显示。
显示区10A的具体形状不限,例如呈圆形、椭圆形或者多边形等等。参考图1,在一些实施例中,显示区10A大致呈多边形,例如大致呈图1所示的矩形。这里显示区10A大致呈多边形可以理解为:在忽略显示区域的圆倒角、斜倒角或者工艺误差后,显示区10A的形状为多边形。
在图1中,所述显示基板1包括衬底10和设置在衬底10一侧且位于所述非显示区10B的IC接合部20。IC接合部20被配置为连接可向显示基板中的显示像素提供驱动信号、数据信号和时钟信号等,以及向显示基板提供检测信号等的IC芯片的管脚。
在一些实施例中,显示基板1为主动矩阵有机发光二极管(Active Matrix Organic Light-Emitting Diode,AMOLED)显示基板或被动矩阵有机发光二极管(Passive Matrix Organic Light-Emitting Diode,PMOLED)显示基板。例如,在显示基板10为AMOLED显示基板时,其衬底10可以为柔性衬底(例如聚酰亚胺材料)或者硬质衬底(例如玻璃或树脂材料)。
在图2中,IC接合部20包括:引脚21、第一钝化层(PVX)22、第一间隔层23和第一金属层24。第一钝化层22位于所述衬底10邻近引脚21的一侧,并覆盖在所 述引脚21的周边区域,并露出所述引脚21的中心区域。第一钝化层22可采用无机材料形成,例如氧化硅SiOx、氮化硅SiNx或氮氧化硅SiNO等硅的化合物。
第一间隔层23位于所述第一钝化层22远离所述衬底10的一侧,并覆盖所述钝化层22和所述第一钝化层22与所述引脚21相接的边缘。第一间隔层23可采用绝缘材料制成,例如氮化硅SiNx。第一金属层24位于所述第一间隔层23远离所述衬底10的一侧,至少覆盖所述引脚21的中心部位,并与所述引脚21电连接。
相比于相关技术中IC接合区域采用通过平坦化层等有机材料膜层包覆引脚的周边区域的结构,本实施例通过第一钝化层22包覆引脚21的周边区域,其与第一间隔层23之间粘附力优于相关技术中有机材料膜层与间隔层的粘附力,不容易从第一钝化层22上剥落,而且还可避免有机材料膜层吸收水汽并受热膨胀,而导致间隔层和金属层剥落的情形,进一步使得IC接合部中的第一间隔层23和第一金属层24更不容易剥落。
参考图2,在一些实施例中,显示面板还包括:IC芯片4和导电胶膜41。IC芯片4具有芯片管脚42,所述IC芯片4位于所述第一金属层24远离所述衬底10的一侧。导电胶膜41位于所述IC芯片4的芯片管脚42与所述第一金属层24之间,且与所述IC芯片4的芯片管脚42与所述第一金属层24均电连接。导电胶膜41可采用ACF。
相比于相关技术中采用间隔层包覆有机材料膜层的边缘部分,并采用ACF连接金属层与IC芯片的管脚的结构,本实施例中第一间隔层23直接包覆在第一钝化层22,因此形成在第一间隔层23和IC芯片4上的第一金属层24的边缘和中心的高度差相对较小,这使得导电胶膜41对应于边缘位置的导电粒子受力相对较小,不容易压裂第一间隔层23。另一方面,也可避免有机材料膜层经间隔层的裂缝吸收水汽并受热膨胀,而导致间隔层和金属层剥落的情形,进一步使得IC接合部中的第一间隔层23和第一金属层24更不容易剥落。
在图2中,显示基板还包括:第一绝缘层12a和第二绝缘层12b。第一绝缘层12a位于所述第一钝化层22与所述衬底10之间。第二绝缘层12b位于所述第一绝缘层12a与所述第一钝化层22之间。
第一绝缘层(例如第一栅绝缘层GI1)12a和第二绝缘层(例如第二栅绝缘层GI2)12b的材料均可包括硅化合物或金属氧化物,例如,氮氧化硅SiNO、氧化硅SiOx、氮化硅SiNx、碳氧化硅SiCxOy、碳化氮硅SiCxNy、氧化铝AlOx、氮化铝AlNx、氧 化钽TaOx、氧化铪HfOx、氧化锆ZrOx、氧化钛TiOx等。第一绝缘层12a和第二绝缘层12b可以为单层或多层。
IC接合部20中的引脚21可在形成显示基板1中的显示像素过程中同步形成。参考图2,在一些实施例中,引脚21包括第一引脚金属层21a。第一引脚金属层21a位于所述第一绝缘层12a远离所述衬底10一侧的表面上,且部分地由所述第二绝缘层12b覆盖。
参考图2,在一些实施例中,显示基板还包括第三绝缘层12c。第三绝缘层12c位于所述第二绝缘层12b与所述第一钝化层22之间。第三绝缘层(例如层间绝缘层ILD)12c的材料可包括硅化合物、金属氧化物等。具体可以选择上文所列举的硅化合物和金属氧化物,这里不再赘述。
在图2中,引脚21还包括第二引脚金属层21b。第二引脚金属层21b位于所述第三绝缘层12c远离所述衬底10一侧的表面上,通过贯穿所述第二绝缘层12b和第三绝缘层12c的过孔与所述第一引脚金属层21a电连接,所述第二引脚金属层21b还与所述第一金属层24电连接。
图3是根据本公开显示面板的一实施例中显示区的截面结构示意图。
参考图3,在一些实施例中,显示面板还包括触控结构30。触控结构30采用前述的FMLOC工艺形成在显示基板1上。触控结构30至少位于所述显示基板1的显示区10A。在一些实施例中,触控结构30位于显示区10A。在另一些实施例中,触控结构30位于显示区10A和非显示区10B。
对于采用FMLOC工艺形成的触控结构30来说,由于其工艺中的每道光掩模(Photo Mask)工艺之前需要对显示基板进行水洗,相关技术中IC接合区域中的有机材料膜层容易在水洗过程中吸水,而本实施例中的IC接合部由于采用第一钝化层22包覆引脚21的周边区域,避免了采用有机材料膜层包覆引脚时有机材料容易吸水的问题。
在图3中,显示基板1还包括:多个发光元件15和封装层19。多个发光元件15设置在所述衬底10邻近所述IC接合部20的一侧,且位于所述显示区10A。对于AMOLED显示基板来说,显示基板1还可包括薄膜晶体管器件13和电容器件14。薄膜晶体管器件13与发光元件15电连接,以便向控制发光元件15,以使各个发光元件15独立发光。
薄膜晶体管器件13可包括有源层13a、栅极13b、源极13c和漏极13d。所述有 源层13a位于所述第一绝缘层12a与所述衬底10之间,所述栅极13b位于所述第一绝缘层12a远离所述衬底10一侧的表面,所述源极13c和所述漏极13d位于所述第三绝缘层12c远离所述衬底10一侧的表面,并通过贯穿所述第一绝缘层12a、所述第二绝缘层12b和所述第三绝缘层12c的过孔分别与所述有源层13a电连接。
有源层13a的材料可包括无机半导体材料(例如多晶硅或非晶硅等)、有机半导体材料或氧化物半导体材料。栅极13b的材料可包括金属、金属合金、金属氮化物、导电金属氧化物或透明导电材料等,例如银、铜、铝合金、氮化铝、氧化锡、氧化铟锡等。源极13c和漏极13d的材料可以包括金属、合金、金属氮化物、导电金属氧化物或透明导电材料等,例如,多层金属Mo-Al-Mo或Ti-Al-Ti。

在一些实施例中,栅极13b、第一电容极板14a和第一引脚金属层21a位于同层且材料相同,这样有利于栅极13b、第一电容极板14a和第一引脚金属层21a通过同一构图工艺形成,从而简化工艺。在一些实施例中,源极13c、漏极13d和第二引脚金属层21b位于同层且材料相同,这样有利于源极13c、漏极13d和第二引脚金属层21b通过同一构图工艺形成,从而简化工艺。
这里和后面提到的同层同材料的结构可以为采用同一成膜工艺形成具有特定图形的膜层,然后利用同一掩模板通过一次构图工艺对该膜层图案化所形成的层结构。根据特定图形的不同,一次构图工艺可能包括多次曝光、显影或刻蚀工艺,而形成的层结构中的特定图形可以是连续的也可以是不连续的。这些特定图形还可能处于不同的高度或者具有不同的厚度。
在图2和图3中,在第一绝缘层12a与衬底10之间还可设置缓冲层11。缓冲层11用于防止或减少金属原子或杂质从衬底扩散到晶体管的有源层中。缓冲层11可包括氧化硅SiOx、氮化硅SiNx或氮氧化硅SiNO等无机材料,并可形成为单层或多层。
参考图3,在一些实施例中,显示基板1还包括:第二钝化层16和平坦化层17。第二钝化层16位于所述第三绝缘层12c远离所述衬底10的一侧,且覆盖所述源极13c和所述漏极13d。在一些实施例中,第二钝化层16与所述第一钝化层22位于同层且材料相同,有利于通过同一构图工艺形成,从而简化工艺。
平坦化层17位于所述第二钝化层16远离所述衬底10的一侧。多个发光元件15 位于所述平坦化层17与所述封装层19之间。平坦化层的材料可以包括有机绝缘材料制成,例如聚酰亚胺、环氧树脂、压克力、聚酯、光致抗蚀剂、聚丙烯酸酯、聚酰胺、硅氧烷等树脂类材料等或氨基甲酸乙酯、热塑性聚氨酯等弹性材料。
在形成平坦化层17时,平坦化层17也可形成在IC接合区域,例如形成在第一钝化层22远离衬底10一侧的表面上。为了避免相关技术中包括有机材料的平坦化层容易吸水的问题,可通过刻蚀等工艺将平坦化层17至少对应于所述引脚21的部分去除。
参考图3,发光元件15可以为OLED发光元件。该发光元件可包括第一电极层15a、有机发光层15b和第二电极层15c。第一电极层15a位于平坦化层17和像素定义层18之间,有机发光层15b位于像素定义层18所界定的像素开口内,第二电极层15c位于有机发光层15b远离衬底10的一侧。第一电极层15a可通过贯穿平坦化层17和第二钝化层16的过孔与漏极13d电连接。
在一些实施例中,第一电极层15a作为发光元件15的阳极层,第二电极层15c作为发光元件15的阴极。第一电极层15a和第二电极层15b均可以采用金属、金属合金、金属氮化物、导电金属氧化物或透明导电材料等材料制成。有机发光层15b可以包括小分子有机材料或聚合物分子有机材料,例如荧光发光材料或磷光发光材料,可以发出红光、绿光、蓝光或白光。
参考图3,在一些实施例中,触控结构30包括第二间隔层31。第二间隔层31位于所述封装层19远离所述衬底10的一侧,且覆盖在所述封装层19的表面。在一些实施例中,第二间隔层31与所述第一间隔层23位于同层且材料相同,这样有利于第二间隔层31与第一间隔层23通过同一构图工艺形成,从而简化工艺。
参考图3,在一些实施例中,触控结构30包括第一触控电极层32。第一触控电极层32具有第一触控电极图案(TSP Metal A,简称TMA),且位于所述第二间隔层31远离所述衬底10的一侧。第一触控电极层32的材料可包括金属、合金、金属氮化物、导电金属氧化物或透明导电材料等,例如,多层金属Mo-Al-Mo或Ti-Al-Ti。
第一触控电极图案可用于形成桥接区域的下层通道,还可用于位于周边的触控驱动电极TX的上下接入与触控感应电极RX信号走线的左右接入。在另一些实施例中,触控驱动电极TX和触控感应电极RX可分别横向和纵向,或者根据需要采用其他布置方式。
在图3中,触控结构30还包括:触控绝缘层33和第二触控电极层34。触控绝缘 层33具有触控绝缘图案,且位于所述第一触控电极层32远离所述衬底10的一侧。触控绝缘层33的材料可包括无机材料,例如氧化硅SiOx、氮化硅SiNx或氮氧化硅SiNO,可作为层间介质层起到绝缘作用。在一些实施例中,触控绝缘层33与所述第一间隔层23位于同层且材料相同,这样有利于触控绝缘层33与第一间隔层23通过同一构图工艺形成,从而简化工艺。
第二触控电极层34具有第二触控电极图案(TSP Metal B,简称TMB),且位于所述触控绝缘层33远离所述衬底10的一侧,部分所述第二触控电极图案通过贯穿所述触控绝缘层33的过孔与所述第一触控电极图案电连接。第二触控电极图案可用于形成桥接区域的上层通道,还可用于形成桥接区域之外的金属网电极以及位于周边的信号走线。在一些实施例中,第二触控电极层34与所述第一金属层24位于同层且材料相同,这样有利于第二触控电极层34与所述第一金属层24通过同一构图工艺形成,从而简化工艺。

在步骤110之前,先形成衬底10。在步骤110中,在所述衬底10一侧形成引脚21。在步骤120中,在所述衬底10邻近引脚21的一侧形成第一钝化层22,并使所述第一钝化层22覆盖在所述引脚21的周边区域,并露出所述引脚21的中心区域。
在步骤130中,在所述第一钝化层22远离所述衬底10的一侧形成第一间隔层23, 并使所述第一间隔层23覆盖所述第一钝化层22和所述第一钝化层22与所述引脚21相接的边缘。在步骤140中,在所述第一间隔层23远离所述衬底10的一侧形成第一金属层24,并使所述第一金属层24至少覆盖所述引脚21的中心部位,并与所述引脚21电连接。
相比于相关技术中IC接合区域采用通过平坦化层等有机材料膜层包覆引脚的周边区域的结构,本实施例通过第一钝化层22包覆引脚21的周边区域,其与第一间隔层23之间粘附力优于相关技术中有机材料膜层与间隔层的粘附力,不容易从第一钝化层22上剥落,而且还可避免有机材料膜层吸收水汽并受热膨胀,而导致间隔层和金属层剥落的情形,进一步使得IC接合部中的第一间隔层23和第一金属层24更不容易剥落。
在一些实施例中,在图4中形成所述第一钝化层22的步骤120和形成所述第一间隔层23的步骤130之间,还可包括:在所述第一钝化层22远离所述衬底10的一侧形成平坦化层17;去除所述平坦化层17至少对应于所述引脚21的部分。在去除平坦化层时,可通过激光或化学刻蚀的方式去除平坦化层材料。在另一些实施例中,还可在步骤120之后,通过设置平坦化层的掩膜版的开口位置使得平坦化层不覆盖IC接合区域中的第一钝化层22和引脚21。

在步骤260中,在所述触控绝缘层33远离所述衬底10的一侧形成具有第二触控电极图案的第二触控电极层34,并使部分所述第二触控电极图案通过贯穿所述触控绝缘层33的过孔与所述第一触控电极图案电连接。在步骤270中,在所述第二触控电极层34远离所述衬底10的一侧形成具有绝缘保护图案的绝缘保护层35,以便对所述第二触控电极层34进行绝缘保护。
在上述实施例中,所述第二间隔层31与所述第一间隔层23通过同一构图工艺形成,所述第二触控电极层34与所述第一金属层24通过同一构图工艺形成。这样有利于简化工艺。在另一些实施例中,触控绝缘层33与所述第一间隔层23通过同一构图工艺形成,这样有利于简化工艺。
上述步骤240到步骤270中均可采用光掩模(Photo Mask)工艺分别形成第一触控电极图案、第二触控电极图案、触控绝缘图案和绝缘保护图案。在另一些实施例中,这些图案也可采用化学气相沉积(Chemical Vapor Deposition,简称CVD)工艺形成。
本说明书中多个实施例采用递进的方式描述,各实施例的重点有所不同,而各个实施例之间相同或相似的部分相互参见即可。对于方法实施例而言,由于其整体以及涉及的步骤与显示面板实施例中的内容存在对应关系,因此描述的比较简单,相关之处参见显示面板实施例的部分说明即可。
