TFT-LCD manufacture technology metal or metal composite film layer profile
In the thin film transistor liquid crystal display (TFT-LCD) panel process
Gate(grid) layer and SD layer (source) circuit can use pure metal film layers according to the product requirements
such as molybdenum
copper and other metal film
can also use metal composite film layers such as aluminum molybdenum
aluminum neodymium molybdenum
molybdenum aluminum molybdenum metal composite film. When different metal or metal composite layers are used as Gate and SD circuits
different etchant should be applied. But in actual production
it is often an etchant which corresponds to the metal film layers or metal composite film layers. The molybdenum metal film layers etch rate is larger than the aluminum molybdenum composite film layers etch rate. When the aluminum molybdenum composite film etching complete
the profile is abnormal sometimes
such as film larger angle (80~90°)
top metal occurs tip or shrink phenomenon. When the macro defect occurs and the subsequent process will produce the corresponding optical defects or lead to residual material in the rear layer and affect the quality of products. In this paper
the factors affecting the profile of metal film layers or metal composite film layers are mainly affected by the etching process and exposure process. Through adjusting the etchant concentration
temperature
etching mode and exposure step to adjust the angle
the metal molybdenum occurrence probability of the metal film indentation is reduced
the slope angle of the metal film is controlled at 60°
and the metal composite film slope angle is controlled at 50° so as to reduce the bad incidence and improve the product quality.
