[0015] By providing a method and system for preparing a photoresist for a high-resolution display panel, the present invention solves the technical problem that the traditional photoresist preparation method cannot effectively control the bubble interference, resulting in the influence on the accuracy and details of the lithography pattern. By integrating prediction and algorithm optimization, the accuracy and reliability of the photoresist preparation parameter setting can be significantly improved, thereby effectively controlling the generation and distribution of bubbles, reducing their influence on the lithography pattern, and thus improving the accuracy, clarity, and details of the pattern.

[0016] Next, the technical solutions in the present invention will be clearly and completely described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments of the present invention. It should be understood that the present invention is not limited by the example embodiments described herein. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention. Additionally, it should be noted that for the sake of description, only the parts related to the present invention are shown in the accompanying drawings rather than all of them.

[0017] Example 1, please refer to the attached Figure 1 , the present invention provides a method for preparing a photoresist for a high-resolution display panel, which is applied to a photoresist preparation system for a high-resolution display panel, and specifically includes the following steps: S10: Obtain the range of preparation parameters during the photoresist preparation process, where the preparation parameters include at least one of photosensitive dose, resin amount, solvent amount, and stirring parameters.

[0018] Furthermore, step S10 of the present invention further includes: S11: Obtain the ranges of photosensitive dose, resin amount, solvent amount, and stirring parameters during the photoresist preparation process; S12: Combine the ranges of at least one of the photosensitive dose, resin amount, solvent amount, and stirring parameters to obtain the range of preparation parameters.

[0019] Specifically, first, obtain the ranges of photosensitive dose, resin amount, solvent amount, and stirring parameters during the preparation of photoresist. Among them, the photosensitive dose refers to the concentration of photosensitizer in the photoresist, which determines the responsiveness of the photoresist to light during exposure. Excessive photosensitizer may cause the photoresist to overreact, resulting in blurred patterns or uneven photoresist, while too little photosensitizer may lead to incomplete exposure of the photoresist. Generally, the range of photosensitive dose is 0.5% to 10% (by the proportion of photosensitizer in the total amount of photoresist); the resin amount affects the curing performance and fluidity of the photoresist. Too high a concentration of resin will make the photoresist too viscous, resulting in uneven coating; too low a resin amount may make the photoresist too thin, affecting the stability and resolution of the pattern. Generally, the range of resin amount is 20% to 50% (by the proportion of resin in the total amount of photoresist); the solvent amount determines the fluidity and coating uniformity of the photoresist. The use of solvent not only helps to dissolve the resin and photosensitizer, but also can adjust the viscosity of the photoresist. Too much solvent will increase the volatility of the photoresist, which may lead to the formation of bubbles; too little solvent may cause the photoresist to be too thick and difficult to coat evenly. Generally, the range of solvent amount is 30% to 60% (by the proportion of solvent in the total amount of photoresist). Stirring is a key step in controlling bubble generation during the preparation of photoresist. Ultrasonic stirring is usually used to reduce the generation of large bubbles, but insufficient stirring will cause bubbles to remain, while excessive stirring may generate too many tiny bubbles, affecting the uniformity and performance of the photoresist. The range of stirring parameters includes the frequency range (usually in the range of 20 kHz to 40 kHz), the power range (generally between 100 W and 500 W), and the time (generally controlled within 5 to 30 minutes).

[0020] Next, combine the ranges of at least one of the photosensitive dose, resin amount, solvent amount, and stirring parameters, that is, at least select one of the photosensitive dose, resin amount, solvent amount, and stirring parameters as the preparation parameters. The preparation parameters can be set according to the actual preparation scenario to obtain the range of preparation parameters. For example, the preparation parameters can include the photosensitive dose and resin amount, or can also include the photosensitive dose, resin amount, and solvent amount.

[0021] S20: Randomly generate the preparation parameters of the photoresist within the range of the preparation parameters, perform integrated prediction of photoresist preparation, and obtain multiple photoresist bubble distributions.

[0022] Furthermore, step S20 of the present invention further includes: S21: Randomly generate the preparation parameters of the photoresist within the range of the preparation parameters to obtain the preparation parameters.

[0023] Specifically, any preparation parameter is randomly selected within the range of the preparation parameters. For example, assuming that the preparation parameters include photosensitive dose and resin amount, where the photosensitive dose ranges from 0.5% to 10% and the resin amount ranges from 20% to 50%, then any preparation parameter can be a photosensitive dose of 3% and a resin amount of 30%.

[0024] S22: Input the preparation parameters into a pre-trained photoresist preparation predictor to predict and obtain multiple photoresist bubble distributions, where the photoresist preparation predictor includes multiple pre-trained photoresist preparation prediction branches.

[0025] Furthermore, step S22 of the present invention further includes: S221: According to the photoresist preparation data within the historical time, collect a set of sample preparation parameters, and collect the bubble position distributions of the bubbles detected in the photoresist actually prepared with different sample preparation parameters, and label them as a set of sample photoresist bubble distributions, where each photoresist bubble distribution includes the bubble coordinates of multiple bubbles; S222: Combine the set of sample preparation parameters and the set of sample photoresist bubble distributions to obtain a set of sample preparation prediction data; S223: Randomly select K pieces of data with replacement within the set of sample preparation prediction data to obtain K pieces of preparation prediction training data; S224: Based on the generative adversarial network, construct K photoresist preparation prediction branches, where each photoresist preparation prediction branch includes a generative network and an adversarial network; S225: Respectively use the K pieces of preparation prediction training data to train and test the K photoresist preparation prediction branches. After passing the test, combine the K photoresist preparation prediction branches to obtain a photoresist preparation predictor.

[0026] Specifically, first, according to the photoresist preparation data within the historical time (such as within the most recent three months), collect the key preparation parameters in the photoresist preparation process. These data come from historical experiments or production processes to obtain multiple sample preparation parameters to construct a set of sample preparation parameters. Then, collect the bubble position distributions of the bubbles detected in the photoresist actually prepared with different sample preparation parameters, such as using technologies such as microscopes and scanning electron microscopes to detect the bubbles in the photoresist. Among them, the bubbles will be marked with different coordinate points (for example, positions on the X and Y coordinate systems), and the specific position of each bubble will form a data point. Record the bubble positions of each photoresist sample detected to form a bubble position distribution, and label it as a sample photoresist bubble distribution to construct a set of sample photoresist bubble distributions.

[0027] Next, combine the sample preparation parameters and the sample photoresist bubble distributions that have a corresponding relationship in the set of sample preparation parameters and the set of sample photoresist bubble distributions as a set of sample preparation prediction data, and obtain multiple sets of sample preparation prediction data to construct a sample preparation prediction data set. Then divide the sample preparation prediction data set into K equal parts to obtain K sample data sets, and iteratively select K times from the K sample data sets to construct the first preparation prediction training data, and use the same method to iteratively select K times to obtain K preparation prediction training data, where K is an integer greater than or equal to 10.

[0028] A generative adversarial network is a deep learning model composed of two parts, a generator and a discriminator. These two parts are jointly trained in an adversarial manner to achieve the goal of generating high-quality data. Then, based on the generative adversarial network, construct K photoresist preparation prediction branches. Each photoresist preparation prediction branch includes a generation network and an adversarial network. The generation network is used to generate fake sample data (e.g., the bubble distribution of the photoresist) to deceive the adversarial network; the adversarial network is used to determine whether the sample is "real" or "generated", that is, to distinguish between the real photoresist bubble distribution and the generated fake bubble distribution; these two parts interact through adversarial training, and finally the generation network can generate more and more real fake samples.

[0029] Next, use the K sets of preparation prediction training data to train and test the K photoresist preparation prediction branches respectively. During the training process, the generator receives the photoresist preparation parameters as input and generates the predicted photoresist bubble distribution; the discriminator receives the generated bubble distribution and the real bubble distribution, and calculates their authenticity probabilities respectively. The goal of the generator is to maximize the discriminator's judgment probability for fake data, so that the generated data can be considered "real" by the discriminator. The task of the discriminator is to judge the gap between the generated bubble distribution and the real data. After each forward propagation, by calculating the loss function of the discriminator, execute the backpropagation algorithm to update the weights of the discriminator; after the discriminator is updated, train the generator, and by calculating the loss function of the generator, execute backpropagation to update the weights of the generator. During the testing process, use a data set (test set) different from the training set, input the photoresist preparation parameters, and generate the bubble distribution through the trained photoresist preparation prediction branch; then, compare the bubble distribution generated by the generator with the real bubble distribution to evaluate the prediction accuracy of the model; the discriminator evaluates the authenticity of the generated bubbles and outputs its judgment result; if the generated bubble distribution cannot be distinguished as real or fake by the discriminator, the performance of the generator is better; if the output of the generator meets the set accuracy standard and the discriminator successfully distinguishes between real and fake data, then this branch is considered to pass the test. At this time, obtain K photoresist preparation prediction branches that pass the test, and integrate them to construct a photoresist preparation predictor.

[0030] By training K branches and independently training and testing each branch, the generalization ability of the model can be improved, and the integrated method is used to combine each branch to finally obtain a photoresist preparation predictor with strong robustness and high accuracy.

[0031] Finally, the preparation parameters are input into the pre-trained photoresist preparation predictor. Through forward propagation calculation, the predictor will generate corresponding photoresist bubble distributions according to the input preparation parameters and output multiple photoresist bubble distributions.

[0032] S30: Randomly perform etching simulations within the multiple photoresist bubble distributions to obtain multiple etching blur rates.

[0033] Furthermore, step S30 of the present invention further includes: S31: Obtain the etching specification parameters for the current etching, where the etching specification parameters include the minimum etching pattern size; S32: According to the etching specification parameters, randomly select etching positions within the multiple photoresist bubble distributions to obtain multiple etching position distributions, where each etching position distribution includes multiple etching position coordinates, and the distance between adjacent etching position coordinates is the minimum etching pattern size; S33: Calculate the interval distances between the etching position coordinates and the nearest bubble position coordinates within the multiple etching position distributions and the multiple photoresist bubble distributions, and calculate the proportion of the etching position coordinates with the interval distance less than the preset distance threshold to obtain multiple etching blur rates.

[0034] Specifically, first, obtain the etching specification parameters for the current etching, where the etching specification parameters include the minimum etching pattern size, and the minimum etching pattern size determines the size of the smallest pattern for each etching. For example, assume the minimum etching pattern size is 50 nm. Then, for each photoresist bubble distribution, randomly select an etching position in the bubble distribution and ensure that the distance between adjacent etching positions meets the minimum etching pattern size. For example, randomly select an etching position from the bubble distribution area, and then when selecting a new position, ensure that the distance from the previously selected etching position is at least the minimum etching pattern size to obtain multiple etching position distributions, where each etching position distribution includes multiple etching position coordinates.

[0035] Then, within the distributions of the multiple etching positions and the multiple photoresist bubble distributions respectively, calculate the interval distance between the etching position coordinates and the coordinates of the nearest bubble position, that is, for each etching position, find the bubble position closest to this etching position and calculate its distance; then count the proportion of the etching position coordinates with an interval distance less than a preset distance threshold (which can be set according to the standard preparation requirements, such as 100 nm). If the distance is less than this threshold, it is considered that this etching position is interfered by bubbles, resulting in a blurred pattern, and set the proportion of the etching positions affected by bubbles as the etching blur rate, obtaining multiple etching blur rates. By calculating the distance between each etching position and the bubble position and determining whether it is interfered by bubbles (the distance is less than the preset threshold), the blur rate of each etching position distribution can be calculated. This process helps to analyze and optimize the preparation process of the photoresist to improve the accuracy and details of the lithography pattern.

[0036] S40: According to the multiple photoresist bubble distributions and the multiple etching blur rates, calculate and obtain the lithography fitness, perform iterative optimization of the photoresist preparation parameters, obtain the optimal photoresist preparation parameters, and carry out photoresist preparation.

[0037] Furthermore, step S40 of the present invention further includes: S41: Construct a resolution evaluation function, and based on the multiple photoresist bubble distributions and the multiple etching blur rates, calculate and obtain the resolution fitness according to the resolution evaluation function.

[0038] Furthermore, step S41 of the present invention further includes: S411: Construct a resolution evaluation function as follows: ; where RESfit is the resolution fitness, K is the number of multiple photoresist bubble distributions, and are weights, is the preset number of bubbles, is a small real number, is the number of bubbles in the i-th photoresist bubble distribution, is the preset etching blur rate, is the i-th etching blur rate; S412: Obtain the multiple numbers of bubbles in the multiple photoresist bubble distributions, combine the multiple etching blur rates, and calculate and obtain the resolution fitness based on the resolution evaluation function.

[0039] Specifically, in the resolution evaluation function, RESfit is the resolution fitness. Among them, the larger the resolution fitness, the better the characterization of the preparation parameters; K is the number of multiple photoresist bubble distributions, and are weights, where is the bubble number weight, is the etching blur rate weight, and The sum of them is 1, and the weight value can be set according to the influence degree of the index on the resolution fitness. The greater the influence degree, the greater the weight; is the preset number of bubbles, is a small real number, which can be set according to actual requirements. For example, 10; is the number of bubbles in the i-th photoresist bubble distribution, is the preset etching blur rate, usually an ideal small value, representing the ideal situation without bubble interference, and can be set according to the preparation requirements, is the i-th etching blur rate. By constructing a resolution evaluation function, the influence of the bubble distribution and the etching blur rate on the resolution during the photoresist preparation process can be accurately quantified, thereby providing a specific numerical basis for optimizing the preparation parameters.

[0040] Obtain the multiple numbers of bubbles in the multiple photoresist bubble distributions, and then use the resolution evaluation function to calculate the resolution fitness according to the multiple numbers of bubbles and the multiple etching blur rates, which reflects the comprehensive influence of the number of bubbles and the etching blur rate on the pattern clarity.

[0041] S42: Continue to randomly generate preparation parameters within the range of the preparation parameters, calculate the resolution fitness, and perform iterative optimization of the photoresist preparation parameters until optimization convergence; S43: Output the preparation parameters with the maximum resolution fitness, obtain the optimal photoresist preparation parameters, and perform photoresist preparation.

[0042] Specifically, then randomly generate other preparation parameters within the range of the preparation parameters and calculate the resolution fitness; use the same method for iterative selection of the preparation parameters and fitness calculation until the predetermined number of iterations is reached. For example, set the number of iterations to 500 times. At this time, multiple preparation parameters and multiple resolution fitnesses are obtained. Finally, select the preparation parameters with the maximum resolution fitness as the optimal photoresist preparation parameters and perform photoresist preparation. By performing iterative optimization within the range of the preparation parameters to find the preparation parameters that make the pattern accuracy and clarity of the photoresist reach the best effect, the quality of photoresist preparation can be effectively improved.

[0043] In summary, a method for preparing a photoresist for a high-resolution display panel provided by the present invention has the following technical effects: By obtaining the range of preparation parameters in the photoresist preparation process, where the preparation parameters include at least one of photosensitive dose, resin amount, solvent amount, and stirring parameters; then randomly generating the preparation parameters of the photoresist within the range of the preparation parameters, performing integrated prediction of photoresist preparation to obtain multiple photoresist bubble distributions; then randomly performing etching simulation within each of the multiple photoresist bubble distributions to obtain multiple etching blur rates; further calculating the photolithography fitness based on the multiple photoresist bubble distributions and multiple etching blur rates, performing iterative optimization of the photoresist preparation parameters to obtain the optimal photoresist preparation parameters; and finally preparing the photoresist according to the optimal photoresist preparation parameters. That is to say, through integrated prediction and algorithm optimization, the accuracy and reliability of the setting of photoresist preparation parameters can be significantly improved, thereby effectively controlling the generation and distribution of bubbles, reducing their impact on the photolithography pattern, and thus improving the accuracy, clarity, and details of the pattern.
