Array substrate, manufacturing method thereof and touch panel

Abstract

The invention discloses an array substrate, a manufacturing method thereof and a touch panel. The array substrate comprises a substrate body, wherein grid lines and data lines are formed on the substrate body, and pixel units are defined by the grid lines and the data lines. Each pixel unit comprises a display thin film transistor and pixel electrodes. Scanning lines, receiving lines and touch electrodes are further formed on the substrate body. Touch thin film transistors connected with the touch electrodes are further arranged on part of the pixel units or all pixel units, and the touch thin film transistors are connected with the scanning lines and the receiving lines. According to the array substrate, the manufacturing method thereof and the touch panel, the touch thin film transistors are formed in the pixel units, the display thin film transistors and the touch thin film transistors are all arranged in the pixel units, space beyond the pixel units on the array substrate does not need to be occupied, and therefore the structure of the array substrate is simplified.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of display technology, in particular to an array substrate, a manufacturing method thereof, and a touch screen. Background technique [0002] According to the composition and structure, the touch screen can be divided into: Add on Mode Touch Panel, On Cell Touch Panel and In Cell Touch Panel. Wherein, the in-cell touch screen is a touch screen formed by embedding the touch electrodes of the touch screen in the liquid crystal display panel. [0003] The array substrate is an important part of the touch screen. In the prior art, the array substrate may include: a base substrate and gate lines and data lines formed on the base substrate. The gate lines and data lines define pixel units, and display thin film transistors and pixel electrodes are formed in the pixel units. A touch electrode and a touch thin film transistor are also formed on the bottom substrate. Both the display thin film transistor and the touch thin f...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0004] In the prior art, the display thin film transistor and the touch thin film transistor are arranged separately, and the touch thin film transistor is formed separately outside the pixel unit, which needs to occupy the space outside the pixel unit on the array substrate, thus making the structure of the array substrate complicated.
