The present disclosure relates to, but is not limited to, the field of display technology, and more particularly, to a display substrate, a method for manufacturing the display substrate, and a display device.
Flexible materials such as PI (polyimide) substrate are widely used in high-end OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode) and Mini-LED Display products. In a manufacturing process, the PI substrate needs to be combined with a rigid substrate to be manufactured, and the PI substrate carrying a driving circuit and display chip on a surface of the rigid substrate is processed through a lift off process such as LLO (Laser Lift Off) for subsequent assembly of a whole machine. With increasingly stringent requirements of users on a thickness of the whole machine, the thickness of the whole machine is getting smaller and smaller, which leads to the thickness of the PI substrate to be reduced from the original 100 microns to 50 microns or even below 50 microns.

The positional relationships between the constituent elements are changed as appropriate based on directions for describing the constituent elements. Therefore, appropriate replacements may be made according to situations without being limited to the wordings described in the specification.

According to the inventor's research, during a lift-off process of the flexible substrate 20′ and the carrier substrate 10, the laser will vaporize part of the flexible substrate 20′ in the structure of the display substrate in the related art to form apertures, or reduce an overall thickness of the flexible substrate 20′, so that most of the laser penetrates through the flexible substrate 20′ and irradiates the circuit structure layer 301 on the flexible substrate 20′, thus the circuit in the circuit structure layer 301 is damaged. The circuit structure layer 301 is usually used to be connected with functional components, such as light emitting elements or driving chips, etc. Damages to circuits in the circuit structure layer 301 will reduce an overall display effect of the display product.
If the energy of laser irradiation is reduced in the lift-off process, there are problems such as difficulty in separating the flexible substrate 20′ from the carrier substrate 10, low lift-off efficiency. During the lift-off process, as the thickness of the flexible substrate 20′ decreases, when small molecular foreign matter is precipitated on a surface of the carrier substrate 10, it is easy to produce bubbling on the flexible substrate 20′, which will reduce airtightness of the display substrate, lead to the failure of the display substrate to pass a reliability evaluation test and increase a defective rate of products.
The present disclosure provides a display substrate including a substrate structure layer. The substrate structure layer includes a substrate material layer, a sacrificial layer and an optical film layer between the substrate material layer and the sacrificial layer which are stacked. A reflectivity of the optical film layer is greater than a transmittance of the optical film layer.
A laser lift-off process may be used for the display substrate of the present disclosure, and the substrate structure layer may be lifted off from the carrier substrate by laser. In this display substrate, the optical film layer is configured to have a reflectivity greater than a transmittance thereof, so that a proportion of lift-off light penetrating through the substrate material layer can be reduced, the damage caused by the lift-off light to the circuit structure layer and the like in the display substrate can be avoided, and a qualified rate of the product can be improved, and an overall manufacturing cost of the display product can be reduced.
The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present disclosure will be illustrated in detail below by the embodiments.
In an exemplary implementation, as shown in
In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the technical solution is described by an example in which the lift-off light is provided as laser.
In an exemplary implementation, a side of the sacrificial layer 50 away from the optical film layer 40 is a laser lift-off surface. The laser lift-off surface is a surface of the display substrate after being lift off from the carrier substrate 10 by laser irradiation. The laser lift-off surface can be left with lift-off holes, or uneven surface, or basically flat surface, and the like after the laser irradiation. Different laser lift-off surfaces can be obtained according to different laser settings. For example, the laser may be arranged in points, lines, or surfaces, i.e. constituting a point light source or a line light source or a surface light source. In a process of laser lift-off of the display substrate, laser energy may be absorbed by the sacrificial layer 50 provided, so that a portion of the sacrificial layer 50 is decomposed to form a laser lift-off surface to achieve lift-off of the display substrate from the carrier substrate 10.
In an exemplary implementation, the sacrificial layer 50 may be made of a photosensitive organic material, such as a photosensitive resin material, or the like. Or, the sacrificial layer 50 may be made of a photosensitive photoresist material, or the like. The sacrificial layer 50 may be prepared by an inkjet-printed process.
In an exemplary embodiment, the sacrificial layer 50 may include one of polyimide (PI), polyacrylate, polyphenylene sulfide, polyaryl ester, cellulose acetate propionate, polyethylene naphthalate (PEN), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyethersulfone resin (PES), polycarbonate (PC), polyetherimide (PEI), cycloolefin polymer (COP), silica gel resin, polyaryl compound (PAR) or glass fiber reinforced plastic (FRP), or a mixture of a plurality of polymers. When a laser irradiates a polymer, such as a polyimide, the polyimide is carbonized and decomposed due to absorption of light to achieve lift-off of the display substrate from the carrier substrate 10.
In an exemplary implementation, the thickness of the sacrificial layer 50 may be in a range from 2.0 microns (μm) to 5.0 microns (μm).
In an exemplary implementation, a range of a refractive index of the sacrificial layer 50 may be set to be 1.65 to 1.80.
In an exemplary implementation, the reflectivity of the optical film layer 40 is greater than the transmittance thereof. The display substrate can reflect the lift-off light to the sacrificial layer 50 by using a semi-transparent and semi-reflective property of the optical film layer 40, which can generally improve a utilization efficiency of the lift-off light.
In an exemplary implementation, as shown in
In an exemplary implementation, as shown in
As shown in
According to the optical principle, when light is incident from a material with one refractive index to a material with another refractive index, a transmission route of light will change, and refraction, reflection or total reflection will occur at an interface between the two materials. For example, when light is incident from a material with large refractive index to a material with small refractive index, as an incident angle of the incident light exceeds a critical angle, the incident light will be totally reflected at the interface, and when the incident angle of the incident light does not exceed the critical angle, the incident light will be refracted. By utilizing the differences between refractive indices of the dielectric layers in the optical film layer 40, the proportion of laser incident on the substrate material layer 20 can be reduced, a proportion of light changing the transmission route can be increased, and a proportion of laser reflected back to the sacrificial layer 50 can be increased, which includes reflected light, refracted and then reflected light, or refracted, reflected and then refracted light.

As shown in
In some embodiments, the optical film layer 40 may include a plurality of first dielectric layers 401 and a plurality of second dielectric layers 402. The plurality of first dielectric layers 401 and the plurality of second dielectric layers 402 are arranged in an overlapped manner along the direction away from the sacrificial layer 50, a film layer in the optical film layer 40 adjacent to the substrate material layer 20 is a second dielectric layer 402, and a film layer in the optical film layer 40 adjacent to the sacrificial layer 50 is a second dielectric layer 402.
In an exemplary embodiment, the optical film layer 40 may include a plurality of first dielectric layers 401 and a plurality of second dielectric layers 402. The plurality of first dielectric layers 401 and the plurality of second dielectric layers 402 are arranged in an overlapped manner along a direction away from the sacrificial layer 50, a film layer in the optical film layer 40 adjacent to the substrate material layer 20 is a first dielectric layer 401, and a film layer in the optical film layer 40 adjacent to the sacrificial layer 50 is a first dielectric layer 401.
In an exemplary embodiment, a film layer in the optical film layer 40 adjacent to the substrate material layer 20 is the first dielectric layer 401, and a film layer in the optical film layer 40 adjacent to the sacrificial layer 50 is the first dielectric layer 401.
In some embodiments, the optical film layer may further include other numbers of first dielectric layers and second dielectric layers that are sequentially arranged in an overlapped manner along the direction away from the sacrificial layer as long as the refractive index of the first dielectric layers is different from the refractive index of the second dielectric layers. Embodiments of the present disclosure are not repeated here.
In the display substrate according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, the optical film layer 40 is provided as a multi-layer structure, and the optical film layer 40 can reflect lasers with different wavelengths by alternately arranging films with different refractive indices, for example, the alternate arrangement of the first dielectric layers 401 and the second dielectric layers 402, so as to improve a diversity of display products. For example, in actual production, it is possible to improve the efficiency of laser lift-off of the display substrate by changing a material combination of a plurality of film layers in the optical film layer 40 without adjusting the existing production equipment.
Table 1 illustrates a structure of an optical film layer to be simulated. The carrier substrate can be glass. Along a direction away from the carrier substrate 10, the optical film layer to be simulated includes a second dielectric layer (Nb2O5), a first dielectric layer (SiO2), and a second dielectric layer (Nb2O5) sequentially arranged along the direction away from the carrier substrate. A thickness in Table 1 indicates a thickness of a corresponding film layer, and the thickness being “0” means that the defined thickness of the layer in the simulation software is 0, that is, there is no such film layer in the actual optical film layer.
It can be seen from the above experimental results that different reflectivity can be obtained based on the same optical film 40 due to different laser wavelengths. For example, when the wavelength of laser is 400 nm and the reflectivity of the optical film to laser can reach 60%. In actual production, the number of dielectric layers and the materials of the dielectric layer inside the optical film 40 can be adjusted according to the laser wavelengths and the reflectivity required by the design.
In the actual production of the display substrate, different lasers can be selected to obtain the required laser wavelengths. A range of the laser wavelength is from 375 nm to 1650 nm. For example, a range of a laser wavelength of a blue-violet laser is 375 nm, 405 nm. Laser wavelengths of the blue laser are 450 nm, 457 nm and 473 nm. A wavelength of a green laser is 532 nm. A wavelength of a yellow laser is 589 nm. Wavelengths of red laser are 635 nm, 660 nm and so on.
Excimer laser can also be selected. The excimer laser is the laser produced when the molecules formed by a mixed gas of inert gas and halogen gas are excited by electron beam and transitioned to their ground state. The excimer laser belongs to ultraviolet light, and its wavelength ranges from 157 nm to 353 nm. The wavelengths of common excimer lasers are 157 nm, 193 nm, 248 nm and 308 nm.
In an exemplary implementation, both the first dielectric layer 401 and the second dielectric layer 402 may be made of an inorganic material. As an example, the material of the first dielectric layer 401 may include any one of silicon oxynitride (SiOxNy), silicon nitride (SiN), silicon oxide (SiO), silicon dioxide (SiO2), aluminum oxide (Al2O3), titanium dioxide (TiO2), niobium pentoxide (Nb2O5), etc. The material of the second dielectric layer 402 may include any one of silicon oxynitride (SiOxNy), silicon nitride (SiN), silicon oxide (SiO), silicon dioxide (SiO2), aluminum oxide (Al2O3), titanium dioxide (TiO2), niobium pentoxide (Nb2O5), etc. It will be acceptable as long as the refractive index of the second dielectric layer 402 is greater than the refractive index of the first dielectric layer 401.
In an exemplary embodiment, the range of the refractive index of the first dielectric layer 401 may be set to 1.4 to 1.6, and the range of the refractive index of the second dielectric layer 402 may be set to 2.0 to 2.3. The two kinds dielectric layers with two refractive indices can be used in combination to realize semi-transparent and semi-reflective optical property, so as to improve the reflectivity of lift-off light and improve the utilization efficiency of light.
In an exemplary embodiment, other film layers may be disposed between the first dielectric layer 401 and the second dielectric layer 402 in the optical film layer 40 which are adjacent. For example, a third dielectric layer may be disposed between the first dielectric layer 401 and the second dielectric layer 402 in the optical film layer 40 which are adjacent. A refractive index of the third dielectric layer is greater than that of the first dielectric layer and smaller than that of the second dielectric layer. The material of the third dielectric layer may include any one of silicon oxynitride (SiOxNy), silicon nitride (SiN), silicon oxide (SiO), silicon dioxide (SiO2), aluminum oxide (Al2O3), titanium dioxide (TiO2), niobium pentoxide (Nb2O5), etc.

The refractive indices of the first dielectric layer, the second dielectric layer, the third dielectric layer, the fourth dielectric layer and the fifth dielectric layer are all different, and the arrangement of the plurality of dielectric layers is not limited herein.
In an exemplary embodiment, a refractive index of a film layer in the optical film layer 40 adjacent to the substrate material layer 20 is greater than a refractive index of the substrate material layer 20, which may increase a proportion of light returning to the optical film layer 40.
In an exemplary embodiment, a refractive index of a film layer in the optical film layer 40 adjacent to the sacrificial layer 50 is greater than the refractive index of the sacrificial layer 50, which may increase the ratio of the returned light.
In an exemplary embodiment, the thickness of the optical film layer 40 may be set in a range from 2.0 microns (u m) to 5.0 microns (u m). The thickness of the optical film 40 can be adjusted according to incident energy of different lights.
In an exemplary embodiment, the optical film 40 has higher stiffness than the sacrificial layer 50, that is, the stiffness of the optical film 40 is greater than a stiffness of the sacrificial layer 50, so that the optical film 40 can not only provide stable support for the substrate material layer 20, but also serve as a protective layer. When small molecular foreign matter is precipitated on the surface of the carrier substrate 10, the optical film 40 can well isolate adverse effects caused by foreign matter on the substrate material layer 20. For example, the optical film 40 can reduce the probability of defects, such as bubbling, in the substrate material layer 20 and improve an overall qualified rate of the display product.
In an exemplary embodiment, the substrate material layer 20 may include one of polyimide (PI), polyacrylate, polyphenylene sulfide, polyaryl ester, cellulose acetate propionate, polyethylene naphthalate (PEN), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyethersulfone resin (PES), polycarbonate (PC), polyetherimide (PEI), cycloolefin polymer (COP), silica gel resin, polyaryl compound (PAR) or glass fiber reinforced plastic (FRP), or a mixture of a plurality of polymers. The substrate material layer 20 may be of a same material as the sacrificial layer 50.
In an exemplary embodiment, the thickness of the substrate material layer 20 may be set in a range from 6.0 microns (μm) to 50 microns (μm).
