AI Technical Summary
In the design of related display backplanes, the active layer of the low-temperature polycrystalline silicon thin-film transistor and the oxide thin-film transistor do not overlap with the deep hole below. This causes the semiconductor layer to climb at the deep hole location, and the difference in morphology leads to non-uniform characteristics, affecting display abnormalities.
A display substrate is designed by setting an active layer overlapping structure of driving transistors and second switching transistors in the driving circuit layer, forming a recessed region in the first via, and setting a dielectric layer on the side of the second electrode away from the substrate. The dielectric layer is used to fill the recessed region to achieve the overlapping of active layers and the effective construction of capacitors.
It improves the space utilization of the display substrate, increases the storage capacitance, reduces short-channel effect and parasitic capacitance, and improves display performance.
