Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to technical field of liquid crystal display, particularly a kind of thin-film transistor array base-plate and method for repairing and mending thereof with pixel preparing structure.
Background technology
At present, LCD is applied in the every field widely as a kind of of flat-panel monitor, and it has advantages such as low-power consumption, thin type light weight.Usually, LCD comprises a liquid crystal panel, liquid crystal panel comprise thin-film transistor array base-plate, have the colored filter substrate of public electrode and be filled in thin-film transistor array base-plate with pixel electrode and colored filter substrate between liquid crystal layer.Produce electric field between pixel electrode and the public electrode, and control the transmissivity that the electric field strength that is applied to liquid crystal layer is controlled incident light, thereby realize the bright and dark control of liquid crystal panel by two electrodes.
The thin-film transistor array base-plate of LCD comprises the pixel electrode that is formed by tin indium oxide (ITO) in a plurality of pixel regions that many gate lines, many data wires, many gate lines and many data wire mutually insulated cross arrangements limit, and be arranged near the infall of data wire and gate line thin-film transistor (Thin Film Transistor, TFT).Thin-film transistor is controlled the voltage that is applied to pixel electrode.Thin-film transistor comprises the grid that electrically connects with gate line, the drain electrode that electrically connects with pixel electrode and the source electrode that electrically connects with data wire.
But, in the production process of LCD, often being vulnerable to production process pollutes or electrostatic breakdown, make thin-film transistor short circuit or open circuit singularly, perhaps make short circuit between the pixel electrode of pixel and the public electrode owing to the influence of electrically conductive particles, then pixel can not normally show, thereby causes the point defect of pixel.Point defect can be divided into bright spot and dim spot, in order to ensure the display quality of liquid crystal panel, can carry out the point defect that liquid crystal panel is found in black full picture inspection and complete white picture inspection usually behind the production process of finishing array base palte and colored filter substrate.Bright spot is bright when complete black picture is checked, because human eye is very responsive and be easy to identification to bright spot, thus when only having the minority bright spot to take place, usually can adopt laser to repair, thus the dim spot that bright spot reparation is become to be difficult for being identified by the human eye.
At present, utilize laser that pixel has been repaired multiple implementation.
Fig. 1 shows the structural representation of single pixel in the prior art thin-film transistor array base-plate.As shown in Figure 1, gate line 11 and data wire 12 vertically insulated cross arrangements on the underlay substrate (not shown), thereby define pixel region.Be formed with pixel electrode 16 in the pixel region, wherein pixel electrode 16 comprises an extension 161, projection on underlay substrate is partly overlapping in projection on the underlay substrate and last gate line 11 in this extension, and pixel electrode 16 and extension 161 and last gate line 11 are insulated from each other.Wherein, last gate line 11 refers to be located at the gate line of thin-film transistor offside in the pixel region.Near the infall of data wire 12 and gate line 11, be formed with thin-film transistor, this thin-film transistor comprises source electrode 121, drain electrode 15 and grid 111, wherein source electrode 121 is electrically connected to data wire 12, drain electrode 15 is electrically connected to pixel electrode 16, grid 111 is electrically connected to gate line 11, and grid 111 is the part of gate line 11.Public electrode wire 13 is parallel with gate line 11.Form liquid crystal capacitance CLC between the public electrode (not shown) of pixel electrode 16 and colored filter substrate.
When pixel shown in Figure 1 fleck defect occurs and need repair, repair schematic diagram such as Fig. 2.Pixel electrode 16 at the AB place by this pixel of laser cutting drains being connected between 15 with thin-film transistor, simultaneously, at the extension 161 of pixel electrode 16 and the extension 161 and last gate line 11 of the C point place laser welding pixel electrode 16 of the overlapping region of last gate line 11, make the two reach electric connection, thereby pixel electrode 16 electrically connects with last gate line 11, pixel electrode, promptly first end of liquid crystal capacitance obtains the voltage on the gate line.The public electrode of colored filter substrate, promptly second end of liquid crystal capacitance receives public voltage signal Vcom.There is voltage difference in the two ends of liquid crystal capacitance, thereby bright spot is repaired into dim spot.
Voltage on the gate line comprises the high voltage Vgh of gate line and the low-voltage Vgl of gate line.In a frame time, the duration of the high voltage Vgh of gate line is very of short duration with respect to the low-voltage Vgl of gate line, can ignore, and therefore, the voltage on the pixel electrode receiving grid polar curve is considered as the low-voltage Vgl of gate line.So the voltage at the liquid crystal capacitance two ends after the repairing equals the poor of voltage on the gate line and public voltage signal, i.e. Vpr=Vgl-Vcom.In actual applications, using the pressure reduction of dull gray rank L0 correspondence usually (is V as 6V
L0+=6V, V
L0-The LCD of=-6V), and get Vgh=20V, Vgl=-6V, therefore Vcom=4~5V can draw
|Vpr|=|Vgl-Vcom|=10~11V>|V
L0-|。
As shown in Figure 3, liquid crystal molecule 301 is filled between colored filter substrate 302 and the thin-film transistor array base-plate 303, respectively at the attached one deck compensate film 304 of the outer surface of two substrates.Because the birefringent characteristic of liquid crystal molecule, the light by liquid crystal layer can present elliptically polarized light, also produces a phase difference simultaneously.Because the appearance of phase difference causes observing LCD with different visual angles and can produce different brightness and GTG.Therefore, in order to compensate this phase difference, must use a compensate film to improve the visual angle problem.Yet compensate film is normally at the pressure reduction V of dull gray rank L0 correspondence
L0The phase difference of liquid crystal designs in advance during for 6V.And after repairing, the voltage at liquid crystal capacitance two ends is greater than the pressure reduction V of dull gray rank L0 correspondence
L0, therefore, the phase difference of liquid crystal will be different from the pressure reduction V of dull gray rank L0 correspondence this moment
L0The phase difference of corresponding liquid crystal, this compensate film will not have the effect that improves the visual angle, after repairing is finished, watch from different visual angles having light leakage phenomena.Equal the pressure reduction V of dull gray rank L0 correspondence for the voltage that can make the liquid crystal capacitance two ends after the repairing
L0, because the voltage Vpr=Vgl-Vcom at the liquid crystal capacitance two ends after repairing, so can consider to change Vgl or Vcom.But, because change the TFT electric leakage that Vgl can cause other defect-free pixel, then when dark attitude because the electric leakage of TFT causes the dark value that can not reach actual, and then cause the contrast of LCD to reduce.The GTG of the whole front panel pixel of LCD all can change when changing Vcom, so also be worthless.Owing to be subjected to the restriction that low-voltage Vgl on the gate line and public voltage signal Vcom can't change, the voltage at the liquid crystal capacitance two ends after the repairing can't be conditioned the pressure reduction V that makes it to equal dull gray rank L0 correspondence
L0, therefore, can't solve the problem that when different visual angles are watched, has light leak for this kind method for repairing and mending.

The resistance R2 of the resistance R1 of first element 1 and second element 2 is respectively the resistance of the semiconductor layer 405 of first element 1 and second element 2, semiconductor layer 405 comprises active layer and ohmic contact layer, because minimum can the ignoring of ohmic contact layer resistance in the semiconductor layer 405, thus the resistance R2 of the resistance R1 of first element 1 and second element 2 respectively equivalence be the resistance of the active layer of first element and second element.
According to resistance formula R=ρ L/S, can get:
The resistance R1=ρ L1/S1=ρ L1/ of first element (W1 * T1),
The resistance R2=ρ L2/S2=ρ L2/ of second element (W2 * T2),
Wherein ρ is the active layer resistance coefficient, because first element 1 and second element 2 are to form in the lump in the process of making thin-film transistor, therefore, the active layer resistance coefficient of first element 1 equates with the active layer resistance coefficient of second element 2; L1, L2 are respectively the channel length of the active layer of first element 1 and second element 2; W1, W2 are respectively the channel width of the active layer of first element 1 and second element 2, and L1, W1, L2, W2 can determine when the etching composition forms first element 1 and second element 2; T1, T2 are respectively the channel thickness of the active layer of first element 1 and second element 2, and T1, T2 can determine when the deposition active layer.
L1, W1, L2, W2 specifically as shown in Figure 9, Fig. 9 is the enlarged drawing of first element 1 and second element 2 among Fig. 4.As shown in Figure 9, the channel length L1 of the active layer of first element 1 equals the channel length in first source electrode 401 of first element 1 and the semiconductor layers 405 that first drain electrode 402 limits, be first source electrode 401 of first element 1 and the interval between first drain electrode 402, the channel length L2 of the active layer of second element 2 equals the channel length in second source electrode 403 of second element 2 and the semiconductor layers 405 that second drain electrode 404 limits, be second source electrode 403 of second element 2 and the interval between second drain electrode 404, the channel width W1 of the active layer of first element 1 equals the channel width of first source electrode 401 and the semiconductor layer 405 that first drain electrode 402 limits of first element 1, be the width of one of first source electrode 401/ drain electrode 402 of first element 1, the channel width W2 of the active layer of second element 2 equals the channel width of second source electrode 403 and the semiconductor layers 405 that second drain electrode 404 limits of second element 2, is the width of one of second source electrode, 403/ drain electrode 404 of second element 2.
Because first element and the active layer of second element and the active layer of thin-film transistor deposit simultaneously, so in general, for the channel thickness of the active layer of first element and second element deposition malleable not, otherwise can influence the characteristic of thin-film transistor simultaneously.So the resistance R1 of first element is relevant with the first channel width-over-length ratio W1/L1 of the active layer of first element, the resistance R2 of second element is relevant with the second channel width-over-length ratio W2/L2 of the active layer of second element, resistance R and channel width-over-length ratio W/L are inversely proportional to, resistance R reduces along with the increase of channel width-over-length ratio W/L, and resistance R increases along with reducing of channel width-over-length ratio W/L.
