[0057] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on this application are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0058] Currently, the common repair method for GCS defects in array substrates is laser welding of via locations. However, this method can only repair GCS defects caused by via abnormalities. For ESD caused by MOSFET switches in the GOA region, there is no effective repair method. Electrostatic discharge (ESD) in the GOA region of the array substrate manifests as a GCS (gate line and common electrode line defect) penetrating the edge of the LCD panel at Y=1 / 2 / 3 (Y represents the Y-axis of the pixel coordinate system, Y=n represents the nth row pixel). There is no effective repair method for this. Furthermore, in the module manufacturing process, laser equipment can only see the back side of the array substrate circuitry under a microscope. For ESD defects occurring during actual production, the defect can only be found on the front side of the array substrate, making it impossible to effectively pinpoint the actual ESD location on the back side. Therefore, it is impossible to accurately cut the short circuit location using laser welding.

[0059] In one example, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the GOA driving circuit for a 65-inch array substrate in related technologies, which includes: INPUT (data input terminal) signal, PU point (gate drive circuit pull-up point), STV (first scan enable terminal) signal, VGL (gate voltage terminal, low voltage terminal) signal, OUTPUT (gate output terminal) signal, and capacitor C between PU point and OUTPUT. Figure 2 The diagram shows a PCB (Printed Circuit Board) layout for a 65-inch array substrate in the relevant technology, including the GOA (Gateway Aspect) driving circuit area and the clock signal area. The INPUT signal for the first three Gate rows is directly provided by the STV (Signal TV). When an ESD event occurs in the preset switches (M1 and / or M2) in the first three Gate rows of the array substrate's GOA area, the vias at the STV input terminals will burn out. There will be no INPUT signal input for the first three Gate rows, the PU (Power Input Point) cannot open normally, and it will be continuously pulled low by VGL. The G-out on the opposite side will participate in the cascading on this side, and the LCD product can only be judged as low-grade, resulting in a decrease in yield (pass rate).

[0060] To enable the repair of array substrates, embodiments of this application provide a method, apparatus, electronic device, and storage medium for repairing array substrates.

[0061] First, a method for repairing an array substrate provided in the embodiments of this application will be described in detail, see [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 3 This includes the following steps:

[0062] Step S301: The array substrate to be tested is tested to obtain the test results.

[0063] The purpose of testing the array substrate is to determine whether ESD has occurred in the switches in the GOA region of the array substrate. The detection method here can be an ESD detection method in related technologies, such as voltage detection or lighting detection. There can be one or more detection methods, and the corresponding detection results can also be one or more results. Combining multiple detection methods can improve the accuracy of the final result.

[0064] Step S302: If the detection result indicates that the preset switch in the GOA driving circuit of the array substrate is short-circuited, determine the target capacitor in the GOA driving circuit; the target capacitor is a capacitor used to boost the output terminal turn-on voltage through capacitor bootstrapping.

[0065] The target capacitor is used to boost the output turn-on voltage via capacitor bootstrapping. A bootstrapping capacitor utilizes the property that the voltage across a capacitor cannot change abruptly. When a certain voltage is maintained across the capacitor, increasing the voltage at the negative terminal while maintaining the original voltage difference at the positive terminal is equivalent to the voltage at the negative terminal being "lifted up," thus boosting the output turn-on voltage (the voltage at point PU).

[0066] The preset switch can be a switch for controlling the charging and discharging of the target capacitor. In one possible implementation, the preset switch includes at least one of a charging control switch and a reset control switch in the GOA driving circuit, wherein the charging control switch is used to control the charging of the target capacitor, and the reset control switch is used to control the reset.

[0067] In one example, in the GOA drive circuit such as Figure 1 As shown, the preset switch can be Figure 1 In M31 and / or M32, the target capacitor can be Figure 1 The capacitor C in the circuit. In one example, in the GOA drive circuit such as... Figure 8 As shown, the preset switch can be Figure 8 In M7 and / or M8, the target capacitor can be Figure 8 Capacitor C2 in the circuit. In one example, in the GOA drive circuit such as... Figure 9 As shown, the preset switch can be Figure 9 In T1 and / or T2, the target capacitor can be Figure 9 The capacitor C1 in the middle.

[0068] Step S303: Weld the target capacitor so that the two plates of the target capacitor are directly connected.

[0069] In one example, in the GOA drive circuit such as Figure 1 As shown, the target capacitor can be Figure 1The capacitor C in the diagram is soldered so that its two plates are directly conductive. At this point, the conductive capacitor C can be considered as a wire. Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of the equivalent circuit before and after the capacitor C in the GOA driving circuit is soldered. When the capacitor C is soldered and connected, the OUTPUTVmax (maximum voltage value) is basically normal, and the pixels in this row are normal.

[0070] In this embodiment, by welding the target capacitor, the two plates of the target capacitor are directly connected, reducing the load. This allows for the repair of the array substrate in the case of electrostatic breakdown and short circuit of the MOS transistor switch in the GOA region of the array substrate.

[0071] In one possible implementation, the detection of the array substrate to be detected to obtain the detection result includes at least one of the following processes:

[0072] The array substrate to be tested is illuminated for detection to obtain the pixel area display detection result of the array substrate;

[0073] The Gate line voltage signal of the preset pixel row output by the GOA driving circuit of the array substrate to be tested is detected to obtain the Gate line voltage detection result.

[0074] The voltage of the PU point of the preset pixel row output by the GOA driving circuit of the array substrate to be tested is detected to obtain the PU point voltage detection result. The PU point is the voltage pull-up point.

[0075] The detection results include at least one of the following: the pixel area display detection results, the Gate line voltage detection results, and the PU point voltage detection results.

[0076] In one example, such as Figure 1 As shown, the OUTPUT signal is the gate output signal. By detecting the OUTPUT signal, the gate line voltage detection result is obtained. The PU point is the pull-up point (voltage pull-up point) of the gate drive circuit. By detecting the voltage at the PU point, the PU point voltage detection result is obtained.

[0077] In the embodiments of this application, the substrate of the array to be tested is tested using different detection methods to obtain the detection results.

[0078] In one possible implementation, the detection result is determined to indicate a short circuit in a preset switch in the GOA driving circuit of the array substrate when one or more of the following conditions are met:

[0079] The pixel area display shows that the first row of pixels, the second row of pixels, and the third row of pixels in the detection results are dark pixels;

[0080] In the Gate line voltage detection results, the Gate line voltage signals of the first to third pixel rows belong to the first preset low voltage range;

[0081] In the voltage detection results of the PU points, the voltage of the PU points in the first to third pixel rows belongs to the second preset low voltage range.

[0082] Dark pixels indicate abnormalities in the first, second, and third rows of pixels on the array substrate.

[0083] The settings of the first and second preset low-voltage ranges are related to the driving voltage of the GOA driving circuit itself in the array substrate. In one example, in the GOA driving circuit... Figure 1 As shown, the first preset low-voltage range can be set to 19V to 19.2V. In one example, in the GOA drive circuit as shown... Figure 1 As shown, the second preset low voltage range can be set to -6.72V to -4.8V.

[0084] In one example, in the GOA drive circuit such as Figure 1 As shown, the array substrate corresponding to the GOA driving circuit is tested. It should be noted that the array substrate includes multiple such... Figure 1 The GOA driving circuit shown is as follows. Figure 4 As shown, five different sets of test results are presented, and experimental verification was conducted before and after repair. Specifically: Figure 4 The experiment was divided into three main groups: the first group was a blank group on the 2160-Gate side; the second group was an experimental group on the 2158-Gate and 2159-Gate sides; and the third group was a control group on the 2155-Gate and 2157-Gate sides. Pixels 2158-2160 (the first to third rows) showed abnormal detection results, indicating a short circuit between M31 and M32 in the GOA driver circuit corresponding to 2158-2160. See [link to documentation] for the labeling of 2155 and 2157-2160. Figure 5 , Figure 5 for Figure 1 The diagram shows the location of the soldered capacitor C in the array substrate corresponding to the GOA driving circuit. The soldering positions are marked with circles.

[0085] 2160 was set as the blank group where capacitor C was not soldered through, 2158 and 2159 were set as the experimental group where capacitor C was soldered through, and 2155 and 2157 were set as the control group where there was no short circuit.

[0086] In the 2160 blank group, before soldering capacitor C in 2158 / 2159 (before repair), the voltage at the PU point is -6.72V, and the voltage at the OUTPUT terminal of the Gate line voltage signal output is 19V; after soldering capacitor C in 2158 / 2159 (after repair), the voltage at the PU point is -5.04V, and the voltage at the OUTPUT terminal of the Gate line voltage signal output is 19.2V.

[0087] In the 2159 experimental group, before soldering capacitor C in 2159 (before repair), the voltage at the PU point was -5.28V, and the voltage at the OUTPUT terminal of the Gate line voltage signal output was 19.2V; after soldering capacitor C in 2159 (after repair), the voltage at the PU point was 30.96V, and the voltage at the OUTPUT terminal of the Gate line voltage signal output was 31V.

[0088] In the 2158 experimental group, before soldering capacitor C in 2158 (before repair), the voltage at the PU point was -4.8V, and the voltage at the OUTPUT terminal of the Gate line voltage signal output was 19V; after soldering capacitor C in 2158 (after repair), the voltage at the PU point was 30.96V, and the voltage at the OUTPUT terminal of the Gate line voltage signal output was 30.8V.

[0089] In the 2157 control group, before soldering capacitor C in 2158 / 2159 (before repair), the voltage at the PU point was 31.44V, and the voltage at the Gate line voltage signal output terminal OUTPUT was 31.2V; after soldering capacitor C in 2158 / 2159 (after repair), the voltage at the PU point was 31.92V, and the voltage at the Gate line voltage signal output terminal OUTPUT was 31.4V.

[0090] In the 2155 control group, before soldering capacitor C in 2158 / 2159 (before repair), the voltage at the PU point was 32.88V, and the voltage at the Gate line voltage signal output terminal OUTPUT was 31.4V; after soldering capacitor C in 2158 / 2159 (after repair), the voltage at the PU point was 43.92V, and the voltage at the Gate line voltage signal output terminal OUTPUT was 31.6V.

[0091] Figure 4 It should be noted that the INPUT on the 2157Gate side is cascaded from the 2160Gate side, so the voltage at the PU point is only 31.92V (which does not reach the normal value of 43.92V).

[0092] After repairing the 2159 Gate side (by soldering capacitor C), which showed abnormal test results, the voltage at the PU point was 30.96V, and the voltage at the OUTPUT output terminal of the Gate line voltage signal was 31V. Similarly, after repairing the 2158 Gate side (also showing abnormal test results) (by soldering capacitor C), the voltage at the PU point was 30.96V, and the voltage at the OUTPUT output terminal of the Gate line voltage signal was 30.8V. Compared to the control group (the 2155 and 2157 Gate sides, which had no short circuits), the voltage values ​​at the PU point and the OUTPUT signal were essentially the same. This demonstrates that soldering capacitor C effectively repaired the array substrate with short circuits.

[0093] In this embodiment of the application, different abnormal conditions are used to determine the detection results, indicating that the preset switch in the GOA driving circuit of the array substrate is short-circuited, thereby repairing the array substrate.

[0094] In one possible implementation, welding the target capacitor to make the two plates of the target capacitor directly conductive includes:

[0095] The target capacitor is welded using a laser with a welding area not less than a preset welding area, so that the two plates of the target capacitor are directly connected.

[0096] The preset welding area is set based on the area between the two plates of the target capacitor, and it is necessary to ensure that the preset welding area is not less than the area between the two plates of the target capacitor.

[0097] In one possible implementation, the preset welding area is 3 micrometers × 3 micrometers.

[0098] Generally, the area between the two plates of the target capacitor is less than 3 micrometers × 3 micrometers. Welding is performed using a laser with a welding area of ​​not less than 3 micrometers × 3 micrometers to ensure that the laser can melt and break through the capacitor.

[0099] In this embodiment, a laser with a welding area of ​​not less than 3 micrometers × 3 micrometers is used to weld the target capacitor to ensure that the laser can melt and break through the capacitor.

[0100] In one example, in the GOA drive circuit such as Figure 1 As shown, during actual testing, the INPUT voltage supplied by STV is 0, there is no input voltage at the PU point, and the short circuit of M2 causes the PU point to be directly connected to VGL (-8V), and the voltage at the PU point is pulled down to a negative voltage. Due to the influence of the capacitor C load, the OUTPUT is only 19V, and the phenomenon that occurs is a GCS that runs through the upper edge (Y=1 / 2 / 3) of the LCD panel.

[0101] Taking the above-mentioned 2158 experimental group as an example, after welding capacitor C with a laser with a welding area of ​​not less than 3 micrometers × 3 micrometers, the PU point is directly connected to the OUTPUT. The OUTPUT is raised to 30.8V (slightly lower than 31.6V in the above-mentioned 2155 control group). The voltage of the PU point can only be raised to 30.96V due to the limited single-sided driving on the other side.

[0102] Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of the equivalent circuit before and after welding capacitor C in the GOA driving circuit. When capacitor C is laser welded through, OUTPUT Vmax (maximum voltage value) is basically normal, and the pixels in this row are normal. It can be seen that the pixels are normal after repair. The actual repair is simple and does not require additional repair auxiliary lines. It is only necessary to find the capacitor C in the first three pixel rows and weld 2 points in each row. It is not easy to cause new defects, which can improve the grade of LCD products and increase the pass rate.

[0103] Figure 7 for Figure 1 The diagram shown illustrates the via anomaly in the array substrate corresponding to the GOA driving circuit. Figure 2 and Figure 5 It can be seen that the via at the INPUT on the 2158Gate side to the 2160Gate side is abnormal, while the via at the INPUT on the 2157Gate side is OK (normal). The actual measured INPUT voltage supplied by STV is 0. It is determined that the MOSFET M1 has excessive ESD current, which has caused the via to break down.

[0104] In this embodiment, the repair is performed on the MOS transistor switch in the GOA area of ​​the 65-inch array substrate that is short-circuited due to electrostatic breakdown. The actual repair is simple, highly practical, and unlikely to cause new defects, which can improve the grade of LCD products and increase the pass rate.
