Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of electronic paper manufacturing, and in particular to a TFT panel structure and its process for preventing high-temperature leakage current. Background Art
[0002] Electronic paper (also known as digital paper) combines the characteristics of ordinary paper for displaying information with those of a computer display screen. Since existing printed products mainly use paper, with the rapid increase in paper consumption, it has caused great damage to the environment. Electronic paper can reflect the display characteristics of paper and can be reused, so it does not cause great damage to the environment, and electronic paper can display dynamic images, so electronic paper is considered likely to replace existing paper documents in the near future.
[0003] The electronic paper ink screen display has the characteristics of ultra-low power consumption, low-frequency display, and power saving, and has a wide application market in fields such as price tags, educational tablets, and bus stops. As electronic paper is increasingly attractive to end customers, optimizing the TFT panel structure design to optimize panel performance has become an important means to enhance product competitiveness.
[0004] With the diversification of end customers' product requirements, higher requirements have been derived for the development of electronic paper TFT panels. The existing mainstream electronic paper architecture mainly includes a glass substrate, a TFT circuit, an OCA adhesive, an electronic paper film, and an ITO film layer; in this structure, the OCA adhesive (optical transparent adhesive) between the electronic paper film and the pixel ITO has micro-conductivity in a high-temperature environment above 40°C. Therefore, when conducting an RA test related to high temperature, the voltage existing between adjacent pixels will leak out through the optical transparent adhesive, that is, the phenomenon of leakage current occurs, resulting in the electronic paper becoming blurred, and further affecting the display quality. Summary of the Invention

The TFT panel structure body includes a glass substrate, a COM electrode located on the glass substrate, a first insulating layer located on the glass substrate and covering the COM electrode, a plurality of data lines located on the first insulating layer and distributed at equal intervals, a pixel electrode located on the first insulating layer and disposed between two adjacent data lines, and a second insulating layer located on the first insulating layer and completely covering the data lines and the pixel electrode. The second insulating layer includes a convex step located above each data line and a concave region located on the pixel electrode and disposed between two adjacent convex steps. The TFT panel structure body further includes a pixel ITO located in each concave region, and the distance between the upper surface of the pixel ITO and the bottom surface of the glass substrate is less than or equal to the distance between the upper surface of the convex step and the bottom surface of the glass substrate.

The convex step in this structure plays an insulating and isolating role for two adjacent pixel ITOS, which can prevent a voltage difference from forming between two adjacent pixel ITOS, avoid the occurrence of high-temperature leakage current, thereby preventing the occurrence of leakage current and avoiding the blurring of the electronic paper. This structure is simple, highly practical, and improves the reliability and lifespan of the product.

This structure is simple, highly practical, and improves the reliability and lifespan of the product, and also saves costs.
[0010] Preferably, the distance between the upper surface of the convex step and the bottom surface of the glass substrate is greater than the distance between the upper surface of the pixel electrode and the bottom surface of the glass substrate. With this structure, by setting the distance between the upper surface of the convex step and the bottom surface of the glass substrate to be greater than the distance between the upper surface of the pixel electrode and the bottom surface of the glass substrate, a recessed area can be formed between the two convex steps. This structure is simple and the process is convenient.

With this structure, the OCA optical adhesive is covered on the second insulating layer and the pixel ITO, and then the electronic paper film is covered on the OCA optical adhesive. This structure is simple and realizes the display function of the electronic paper ink screen.
