Description

[0002] Light-emitting diode chips (LEDs) are a new technology with broad market prospects and are receiving more and more attention. In LED panels in the prior art, such as passive matrix LED panels (PM-LED panels), the spacing between LEDs cannot be further reduced while ensuring the cost. However, as the performance of LED panels, such as resolution, improves, more LEDs need to be set on the LED panels, and accordingly, the LED panels require more sets of driver ICs. When the spacing between LEDs is smaller and the number of LEDs on the same area is greater, more driver ICs are required, resulting in a limited layout area for the driver ICs. In order to solve the problem of limited driver IC area, a driver IC with a smaller area is required, which is bound to increase the cost of the driver IC, thereby greatly increasing the cost of the LED panel.

Therefore, the drawings and descriptions are considered to be illustrative in nature and not restrictive.

[0063] The light emitting diode chip (LED chip) in the present disclosure may be a sub-millimeter light emitting diode (Mini Light Emitting Diode, referred to as Mini LED) chip, or may be a micro light emitting diode (Micro Light Emitting Diode, referred to as Micro LED) chip.

[0064] Herein, the source electrode and the drain electrode are used only to distinguish the two electrodes of the thin film transistor. It can be understood by those skilled in the art that the names of the source electrode and the drain electrode of the thin film transistor can be interchanged. For example, 231 refers to the source electrode, and 232 refers to the drain electrode; or, 231 refers to the drain electrode, and 232 refers to the source electrode.

[0065] Figure 1 is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of a control substrate in an embodiment of the present disclosure; Figure 2 is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of a control substrate in another embodiment of the present disclosure; Figure 3 is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of a control substrate in another embodiment of the present disclosure; Figure 4 is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of a control substrate in another embodiment of the present disclosure; Figure 5 is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of a control substrate in another embodiment of the present disclosure; Figure 6 FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of a control substrate in another embodiment of the present disclosure. In one embodiment, Figure 1 to Figure 6 As shown, the control substrate may include a substrate 11 , an active layer 22 , a gate electrode 211 , a source electrode 231 , a drain electrode 232 , a first metal trace 233 , a first insulating layer 12 , a first passivation layer 13 , a first organic layer 14 and a second passivation layer 16 .

[0066] like Figure 1 to Figure 6 As shown, the active layer 22, the gate electrode 211 and the first insulating layer 12 are located on one side of the substrate 11. The first metal layer is located on the side of the active layer 22, the gate electrode 211 and the first insulating layer 12 that is away from the substrate 11, and the first metal layer includes a source electrode 231, a drain electrode 232 and a first metal wiring 233. The first passivation layer 13 is located on the side of the first metal wiring 233 that is away from the substrate 11.

[0067] The first organic layer 14 is located on the side of the first passivation layer 13 facing away from the substrate 11. The first organic layer 14 is provided with a first via 141 and a second via 142. The orthographic projection of the first via 141 on the substrate 11 at least partially intersects with the orthographic projection of the drain electrode 232 on the substrate 11, and the orthographic projection of the second via 142 on the substrate 11 at least partially intersects with the orthographic projection of the first metal trace 233 on the substrate 11.

[0068] The second passivation layer 16 is located on the side of the first organic layer 14 facing away from the substrate 11. The second passivation layer 16 is provided with a third via hole 161 and a fourth via hole 162. The third via hole 161 is located at the first via hole 141, and the third via hole 161 penetrates the second passivation layer 16 and the first passivation layer 13 to expose a portion of the surface of the drain electrode 232.

[0069] Exemplarily, the thin film transistor may include an active layer 22 , a gate electrode 211 , a source electrode 231 , and a drain electrode 232 .

[0070] It should be noted that the control substrate in the embodiment of the present disclosure can be applied to the field of LED chips. In the control substrate, the partial surface of the drain electrode 232 exposed through the third via 161 and the partial surface of the first metal trace 233 exposed through the fourth via 162 can be used to bind and connect with the LED chip. For example, the partial surface of the drain electrode 232 exposed through the third via 161 can be bound and connected with the first pin of the LED chip, and the partial surface of the first metal trace 233 exposed through the fourth via 162 can be bound and connected with the second pin of the LED chip.

[0071] The control substrate of the disclosed embodiment uses a thin film transistor driving circuit to drive the LED chip, and no longer uses a driver IC. The area of ​​the thin film transistor is much smaller than the area of ​​the driver IC, so the control substrate can be provided with more thin film transistors, which can drive more LED chips, reduce the spacing between LEDs, improve the resolution of the product, and meet the market demand for product resolution. In addition, the preparation process of thin film transistors is relatively mature, so the control substrate of the disclosed embodiment will not lead to cost increases, and while meeting higher resolution, it ensures lower production costs.

[0072] Exemplarily, the material of the substrate 11 may include glass, for example, the material of the substrate 11 is glass.

[0073] In one embodiment, the second metal layer may include a gate electrode 211. The material of the second metal layer includes copper. Copper can reduce the resistance of the second metal layer. Exemplarily, the second metal layer includes a fourth sub-metal layer, a fifth sub-metal layer and a sixth sub-metal layer stacked in sequence.

[0074] Exemplarily, the material of the fourth sub-metal layer may include molybdenum, titanium, and nickel. For example, the fourth sub-metal layer may be MTD (molybdenum-titanium-nickel alloy). Exemplarily, the material of the sixth sub-metal layer may include molybdenum, titanium, and nickel. For example, the sixth sub-metal layer may be MTD (molybdenum-titanium-nickel alloy). Exemplarily, the second metal layer may be a three-layer structure of MTD / Cu / MTD.

[0075] Exemplarily, the material of the fourth sub-metal layer may include molybdenum (Mo) and niobium (Nb), for example, the fourth sub-metal layer may be a molybdenum-niobium alloy (MoNb). Exemplarily, the material of the sixth sub-metal layer may include molybdenum (Mo) and niobium (Nb), for example, the sixth sub-metal layer may be a molybdenum-niobium alloy (MoNb). Exemplarily, the second metal layer may be a three-layer structure of MoNb / Cu / MoNb.

[0076] The second metal layer adopts a laminated structure, and the copper metal layer is sandwiched between the fourth sub-metal layer and the fifth sub-metal layer, which can improve the adhesion between the second metal layer and the substrate 11, avoid copper diffusion, and avoid copper surface oxidation.

[0077] In one embodiment, the thickness of the fourth sub-metal layer may be in a range of 250 angstroms to 350 angstroms (including end values). For example, the thickness of the fourth sub-metal layer may be 300 angstroms.

[0078] In one embodiment, the thickness of the fifth sub-metal layer may range from 2800 angstroms to 3200 angstroms (including end points). For example, the thickness of the fifth sub-metal layer may be 3000 angstroms.

[0079] In one embodiment, the thickness of the sixth sub-metal layer may be in a range of 150 angstroms to 250 angstroms (including end values). Exemplarily, the thickness of the sixth sub-metal layer may be 200 angstroms.

[0080] In one embodiment, the material of the first insulating layer 12 may include at least one of silicon nitride (SiNx), silicon oxide (SiOx) and silicon oxynitride (SiON). Exemplarily, the first insulating layer 12 may be a three-layer structure of SiOx / SiON / SiNx or a two-layer structure of SiOx / SiNx. The SiN layer is close to the substrate 11, and the SiO layer is close to the active layer 22, so that SiO can supplement oxygen for the active layer 22. This can optimize the device structure.

[0081] Exemplarily, the first insulating layer 12 includes a first sub-insulating layer and a second sub-insulating layer which are stacked, the material of the first sub-insulating layer includes silicon nitride (SiNx), and the material of the second sub-insulating layer includes silicon oxide (SiOx). The second sub-insulating layer is close to the active layer 22. The thickness of the first sub-insulating layer may range from 2800 angstroms to 3200 angstroms (including the endpoint values). For example, the thickness of the first sub-insulating layer may be 3000 angstroms. Exemplarily, the thickness of the second sub-insulating layer ranges from 800 angstroms to 1200 angstroms (including the endpoint values). For example, the thickness of the second sub-insulating layer is 1000 angstroms.

[0082] In one embodiment, the material of the active layer 22 may include an oxide semiconductor or low temperature polysilicon (LTPS). For example, the material of the active layer 22 may be indium gallium zinc oxide (IGZO). The thickness of the active layer 22 may range from 500 angstroms to 700 angstroms (including the end values). For example, the thickness of the active layer 22 may be 600 angstroms.

[0083] Exemplarily, the material of the active layer 22 may be doped with tungsten (W), Ta or rare earth elements to improve the mobility of the device and thus improve product performance.

[0084] In one embodiment, the material of the first metal layer includes copper. The first metal layer may include a source electrode 231, a drain electrode 232, and a first metal trace 233. Copper can reduce the resistance of the trace in the first metal layer. Exemplarily, the first metal layer includes three sub-metal layers arranged in a stacked manner, and the material of the sub-metal layer in the middle includes copper. For example, the first metal layer includes a first sub-metal layer, a second sub-metal layer, and a third sub-metal layer arranged in a stacked manner. The material of the second sub-metal layer can be copper. The first sub-metal layer is close to the substrate 11.

[0085] Exemplarily, the material of the first sub-metal layer may include molybdenum, titanium, and nickel. For example, the first sub-metal layer may be MTD (molybdenum-titanium-nickel alloy). Exemplarily, the material of the third sub-metal layer may include molybdenum, titanium, and nickel. For example, the third sub-metal layer may be MTD (molybdenum-titanium-nickel alloy). Exemplarily, the first metal layer may be a three-layer structure of MTD / Cu / MTD.

[0086] Exemplarily, the material of the first sub-metal layer may include molybdenum (Mo) and niobium (Nb), for example, the first sub-metal layer may be a molybdenum-niobium alloy (MoNb). Exemplarily, the material of the third sub-metal layer may include molybdenum (Mo) and niobium (Nb), for example, the third sub-metal layer may be a molybdenum-niobium alloy (MoNb). Exemplarily, the first metal layer may be a two-layer structure of MoNb / Cu / MoNb.

[0087] The first metal layer adopts a laminated structure, and the copper metal layer is sandwiched between the first sub-metal layer and the second sub-metal layer, which can improve the adhesion between the first metal layer and the substrate 11, avoid copper diffusion, and avoid copper surface oxidation.

[0088] In one embodiment, the exposed surface of the drain electrode 232 is made of copper, and the exposed surface of the first metal wiring 233 is made of copper. That is, when the third via 161 and the fourth via 162 are formed by an etching process, over-etching can be performed, and the third sub-metal layer in the first metal layer can be etched away to expose the second sub-metal layer. As a result, the exposed surface of the drain electrode 232 is made of copper, and the exposed surface of the first metal wiring 233 is made of copper. This can reduce the binding resistance and improve the binding yield.

[0089] In one embodiment, the thickness of the first sub-metal layer may be in a range of 250 angstroms to 350 angstroms (including end values). Exemplarily, the thickness of the first sub-metal layer may be 300 angstroms.

[0090] In one embodiment, the second sub-metal layer may have a thickness ranging from 2500 angstroms to 3500 angstroms (including end points). For example, the second sub-metal layer may have a thickness of 3000 angstroms.

[0091] In one embodiment, the thickness of the third sub-metal layer may be in a range of 150 angstroms to 250 angstroms (including end values). Exemplarily, the thickness of the third sub-metal layer may be 200 angstroms.

[0092] In one embodiment, the material of the first passivation layer 13 may include at least one of silicon nitride (SiNx), silicon oxide (SiOx) and silicon oxynitride (SiON).

[0093] In one embodiment, the first passivation layer 13 may include a first sub-passivation layer and a second sub-passivation layer in a stacked arrangement. Exemplarily, the material of the first sub-passivation layer may include SiOx, and the material of the second sub-passivation layer may include SiNx. The first sub-passivation layer is close to the active layer 22, so that the SiOx in the first sub-passivation layer can supplement oxygen for the active layer 22.

[0094] In the case where the second sub-passivation layer includes SiNx, ammonia (NH 3 ), which is convenient for benchmarking the mass production lines in the existing technology and realizing mass production.

[0095] The first passivation layer 13 is made of SiNx instead of SiON. SiNx has better compactness, which is beneficial to improving the uniformity of the characteristics of the thin film transistor device.

[0096] For example, during the deposition of the first passivation layer 13 , the temperature is 230° C. to 290° C. Such a temperature can prevent bubbling of copper metal in the metal layer.

[0097] Exemplarily, the thickness of the first sub-passivation layer ranges from 2000 angstroms to 2800 angstroms (including the end values), for example, the thickness of the first sub-passivation layer can be 2400 angstroms. The thickness of the second sub-passivation layer can range from 300 angstroms to 700 angstroms (including the end values), for example, the thickness of the second sub-passivation layer can be 500 angstroms.

[0100] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the thickness of the second passivation layer 16 can be greater than 8000 angstroms. Therefore, the second passivation layer 16 can play a role of buffering and protection, and can prevent external water vapor from entering the substrate, thereby ensuring the performance of the thin film transistor device.

[0101] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the material of the first organic layer 14 includes black organic material. Such a first organic layer 14 can absorb stray light of the LED chip, prevent the light of the LED chip from irradiating the active layer 22 and affecting the malfunction of the thin film transistor, and ensure the device reliability of the thin film transistor.

[0102] In one embodiment, if Figure 4 As shown, the control substrate may further include a shielding layer 151, and the shielding layer 151 is located between the first organic layer 14 and the second passivation layer 16. The orthographic projection of the shielding layer 151 on the substrate 11 may include the orthographic projection of the active layer 22 on the substrate 11.

[0103] It should be noted that when the LED chip is bound and connected to the control substrate, the upper side of the control substrate is the light emitting side.

The material of the shielding layer 151 can be a metal with light shielding properties, or the material of the shielding layer 151 can be a metal with reflective properties. The material of the shielding layer 151 can be selected as needed, as long as it can prevent the light emitted by the LED chip from irradiating the active layer 22.

[0104] In one embodiment, if Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the control substrate may further include a reflective layer, and the reflective layer is located between the first organic layer 14 and the second passivation layer 16 .

[0110] In one embodiment, the angle between the side wall of the first via 141 and the plane parallel to the substrate 11 is 45° to 75° (including the endpoint values). Thus, the angle β between the side wall of the first reflection ring 152 and the plane parallel to the substrate 11 is 45° to 75° (including the endpoint values). The first reflection cup can reflect the light of the LED chip to improve the light extraction efficiency. By setting β to 45° to 75°, better light extraction efficiency can be obtained. Exemplarily, β can be one of 45°, 60°, 65°, 70°, and 75°.

[0111] After testing and verification, when β is 45°, the light collection efficiency of the first reflector cup is about 29.59%; when β is 60°, the light collection efficiency of the first reflector cup is about 31.02%; when β is 65°, the light collection efficiency of the first reflector cup is about 31.15%; when β is 70°, the light collection efficiency of the first reflector cup is about 31.18%; when β is 75°, the light collection efficiency of the first reflector cup is about 30.76%. The higher the light collection efficiency, the better the light output efficiency.

[0112] In one embodiment, the angle between the side wall of the second via 142 and the plane parallel to the substrate 11 is 45° to 75° (including the endpoint values). Thus, the angle β between the side wall of the second reflection ring 153 and the plane parallel to the substrate 11 is 45° to 75° (including the endpoint values). The second reflection cup can reflect the light of the LED chip to improve the light extraction efficiency. By setting β to 45° to 75°, better light extraction efficiency can be obtained. Exemplarily, β can be one of 45°, 60°, 65°, 70°, and 75°.

Exemplarily, the materials of the first sub-film layer and the second sub-film layer include at least one of indium tin oxide (ITO) and indium zinc oxide (IZO). The material of the second sub-film layer includes silver or aluminum. In the reflective layer of this structure, the second sub-film layer is sandwiched between the first sub-film layer and the third sub-film layer, and the first sub-film layer and the third sub-film layer can protect the second sub-film layer, avoid oxidation of the second sub-film layer material, improve the adhesion between the reflective layer and the adjacent film layer, and avoid peeling problems caused by insufficient adhesion.

[0116] In one embodiment, the thickness of the third sub-layer may be in a range of 70 angstroms to 90 angstroms (including end points). For example, the thickness of the third sub-layer may be 80 angstroms.

[0117] In one embodiment, if Figure 2 , Figures 4 to 6 As shown, the thickness of the second passivation layer 16 may range from 1300 angstroms to 1900 angstroms (including end values). For example, the thickness of the second passivation layer 16 may be 1600 angstroms.

[0118] In one embodiment, if Figure 2 , Figures 4 to 6 As shown, the control substrate may further include a second organic layer 17, and the second organic layer 17 is located on the side of the second passivation layer 16 facing away from the substrate 11. The second organic layer 17 is provided with a fifth via hole 171 and a sixth via hole 172. The orthographic projection of the third via hole 161 on the substrate 11 falls within the orthographic projection of the fifth via hole 171 on the substrate 11, and the orthographic projection of the fourth via hole 162 on the substrate 11 falls within the orthographic projection of the sixth via hole 172 on the substrate 11.

[0119] When the second passivation layer 16 is relatively thin, a second organic layer 17 may be provided. The second organic layer 17 is made of organic material and can play a role of buffering and protection. It can effectively block external water vapor, ensure the device characteristics of the thin film transistor, and help improve the bonding yield.

[0120] In one embodiment, the thickness of the second organic layer 17 is in the range of 20,000 angstroms to 30,000 angstroms (including end points). For example, the thickness of the second organic layer 17 may be 25,000 angstroms.

[0121] In one embodiment, the orthographic projection of the third via hole 161 on the substrate 11 falls within the orthographic projection of the first via hole 141 on the substrate 11, and the orthographic projection of the fourth via hole 162 on the substrate 11 falls within the orthographic projection of the second via hole 142 on the substrate 11. Thus, a portion of the second passivation layer 16 is retained between the sidewall of the third via hole 161 and the sidewall of the first via hole 141, and between the sidewall of the fourth via hole 162 and the sidewall of the second via hole 142, as shown in FIG. Figure 1 to Figure 6 As shown, the retained second passivation layer 16 can prevent external water and oxygen from entering the substrate through the side wall, which is beneficial to improving the stability of the thin film transistor device.

[0122] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 to Figure 6 As shown, the thin film transistor in the control substrate can be a bottom-gate thin film transistor. Among them, the gate electrode 211 is located on one side of the substrate 11, and the first insulating layer 12 (which can be called a gate insulating layer) is located on the side of the gate electrode 211 away from the substrate 11. The active layer 22 is located on the side of the first insulating layer 12 away from the substrate 11, and the first metal layer is located on the side of the active layer 22 and the first insulating layer 12 away from the substrate 11. The use of a bottom-gate thin film transistor can reduce the process steps of the control substrate and reduce costs.

[0123] Figure 7 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a cross-sectional structure of a control substrate in another embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 7 As shown, the thin film transistor in the control substrate may also be a top-gate thin film transistor. The control substrate further includes a second insulating layer 19, and the active layer 22 may be located on one side of the substrate 11, and the second insulating layer 19 is located on the side of the active layer 22 away from the substrate 11. The gate electrode 211 is located on the side of the second insulating layer 19 away from the substrate 11, the first insulating layer 12 is located on the side of the gate electrode 211 away from the substrate 11, and the first metal layer is located on the side of the first insulating layer 12 away from the substrate 11. The source electrode 231 and the drain electrode 232 are connected to the active layer 22 through vias penetrating the first insulating layer 12 and the second insulating layer 19, respectively.

[0124] In one embodiment, if Figure 6As shown, the control substrate may further include an etch stop layer 18, and the etch stop layer 18 is located between the first metal layer and the active layer 22. The orthographic projection of the etch stop layer 18 on the substrate 11 includes the orthographic projection of the channel region of the active layer 22 on the substrate 11, and the channel region of the active layer 22 is the region of the active layer 22 between the source electrode 231 and the drain electrode 232.

[0125] It should be noted that during the etching process of forming the source electrode 231 and the drain electrode 232 , since the source electrode 231 and the drain electrode 232 are respectively overlapped with the active layer 22 , in order to prevent the etching from damaging the active layer 22 , a wet etching process is required to pattern the first metal layer. Figure 6 In the illustrated embodiment, an etching stopper layer 18 is provided, and the orthographic projection of the etching stopper layer 18 on the substrate 11 includes the orthographic projection of the channel region of the active layer 22 on the substrate 11, so that when the source electrode 231 and the drain electrode 232 are formed by an etching process, the active layer 22 will not be etched due to the blocking of the etching stopper layer 18. Therefore, a dry etching process can be used to etch the first metal layer and pattern the first metal layer. The dry etching process can reduce the size of the thin film transistor and further improve the resolution of the product.
