Below in conjunction with the accompanying drawing in the embodiment of the present invention, the technical scheme in the embodiment of the present invention is clearly and completely described, obviously, described embodiment is only the present invention's part embodiment, rather than whole embodiment.Embodiment based in the present invention, those of ordinary skills, not making the every other embodiment obtaining under creative work prerequisite, belong to the scope of protection of the invention.
The embodiment of the present invention provides a kind of thin-film transistor 10, as shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5, this thin-film transistor 10 comprises: be successively set on grid 101, amorphous silicon layer 103 and ohmic contact layer 104 on underlay substrate 100, the size of described grid 101 is less than the size of described amorphous silicon layer 103; On this basis, described thin-film transistor 10 also comprises: be arranged on the light blocking layer 107 between described amorphous silicon layer 103 and described underlay substrate 100, the remainder of described light blocking layer 107 and the amorphous silicon layer not blocked by described grid 101 is corresponding and exceed described amorphous silicon layer 103.
Certainly, described thin-film transistor 10 also comprises: be arranged on gate insulation layer 102 between described grid 101 and described amorphous silicon layer 103, be arranged on described ohmic contact layer 104 away from the source electrode 105 of underlay substrate 100 1 sides and drain electrode 106.
It should be noted that, the first, the size of described grid 101 is less than the size of described amorphous silicon layer 103, is: the size of the projection of described grid 101 on underlay substrate 100 is less than the size of the projection of described amorphous silicon layer 103 on underlay substrate 100.
Certainly, those skilled in the art will be appreciated that, described amorphous silicon layer 103 is exactly semiconductor active layer, and described grid 101 and described amorphous silicon layer 103 are completely corresponding, and by described amorphous silicon layer 103, the projection on underlay substrate 100 covers completely in the namely projection of described grid 101 on underlay substrate 100.
Second, the remainder of described light blocking layer 103 and the amorphous silicon layer 103 not blocked by described grid 101 is corresponding and exceed described amorphous silicon layer 103, be: described light blocking layer 103, except comprising the part corresponding with the remainder of the amorphous silicon layer 101 not blocked by described grid 101, also comprises the part that surpasses described amorphous silicon layer 103.
The 3rd, because the size of described grid 101 is less than the size of described amorphous silicon layer 103, in this case when described thin-film transistor 10 is applied to array base palte, and when this array base palte is applied to liquid crystal indicator, certainly will cause being mapped to amorphous silicon layer 103 and producing photic leakage current from the illumination of bottom backlight, and one of object of the present invention is the problem that solves photic leakage current, therefore, the light blocking layer 107 that those skilled in the art mention from the embodiment of the present invention with and setting position, just will be appreciated that one of object that described light blocking layer 107 is set is the remainder that is mapped to the amorphous silicon layer 103 not blocked by grid 101 from the illumination of bottom backlight for stopping, thereby avoid producing photic leakage current, therefore, the material of described light blocking layer 107 should be can light absorbing opaque material.
On this basis, because described light blocking layer 107 is except comprising the part corresponding with the remainder of the amorphous silicon layer 101 not blocked by described grid 101, also comprise the part that surpasses described amorphous silicon layer 103, in the case, if described light blocking layer 107 conductions the words that contact with described grid 101, be equivalent to extend the size of grid 101 and made grid 101 sizes after extension be greater than described amorphous silicon layer 103, if based on an alternating floor gate insulation layer 102 between light blocking layer this described 107 and described source electrode 105 and drain electrode 106, can cause the generation of hole leakage current, therefore, if described light blocking layer 103 conductor materials in the embodiment of the present invention, and in the situation that it contacts with grid 101, also need between described light blocking layer 103 and described source electrode 105 and drain electrode 106, be formed for intercepting the insulating barrier of electric field.
The embodiment of the present invention provides a kind of thin-film transistor 10, comprising: be successively set on grid 101, amorphous silicon layer 103 and ohmic contact layer 104 on underlay substrate 100, the size of described grid 101 is less than the size of described amorphous silicon layer 103; On this basis, described thin-film transistor 10 also comprises: be arranged on the light blocking layer 107 between described amorphous silicon layer 103 and described underlay substrate 100, the remainder of described light blocking layer 107 and the amorphous silicon layer not blocked by described grid 101 is corresponding and exceed described amorphous silicon layer 103.
Like this, the process complexity with respect to the consistent grid of preparation size 101 with amorphous silicon layer 103, the embodiment of the present invention, because the size of described grid 101 is less than the size of described amorphous silicon layer 103, makes preparation technology more simple; On this basis, on the one hand, because the size of described grid 101 is less than the size of described amorphous silicon layer 103, make the overlapping region with described source electrode 105 and drain electrode 106 at described grid 101, hole accumulation layer in amorphous silicon layer 103 and ohmic contact layer 104 form PN junction, thereby have avoided the generation of hole leakage current; On the other hand, by described light blocking layer 107 and described grid 101, share effect, can stop that illumination is mapped to described amorphous silicon layer 103, thereby avoid the generation of photic leakage current.
Preferably, as shown in Figure 4, described light blocking layer 107 is arranged between described underlay substrate 101 and described grid 101, and described light blocking layer 107 is also corresponding with described grid 101.
That is: the size of described light blocking layer 107 is greater than the size of described amorphous silicon layer 103, and the projection of described light blocking layer 107 on described underlay substrate 100 covers the projection of described amorphous silicon layer 103 on described underlay substrate 100 completely.
On this basis, if the material of described light blocking layer 107 is insulating material, described light blocking layer 107 can directly contact with described grid 101; If the material of described light blocking layer 107 is conductor material, between described light blocking layer 107 and described grid 101, a layer insulating can be set, specifically can arrange according to actual conditions, at this, do not limit.
Like this, only need when preparing thin-film transistor, additionally make one deck light blocking layer 107, and make the size of described light blocking layer 107 be greater than the size of described amorphous silicon layer 103, just can avoid the generation of photic leakage current and hole leakage current, make preparation technology relatively simple simultaneously.

Preferably, as shown in Figure 5, described light blocking layer 107 with described grid 101 with layer and be integrated; Wherein, described light blocking layer 107 obtains for after described grid 101 materials are oxidized away from the surperficial material of described underlay substrate 100, and the material of the remainder of described light blocking layer 107 is identical with described grid 101 materials.
Here, for example can realize in the following way the integral structure of described light blocking layer 107 and described grid 101, that is: when preparing thin-film transistor, by a composition technique, first form the grid metal level that size is greater than amorphous silicon layer 103 sizes, this grid metal level comprises that size to be formed is less than the grid 101 of amorphous silicon layer 103 sizes and is positioned at grid 101 light blocking layer to be formed 107 around, then by related process, make the grid material surface oxidation in described light blocking layer 107 regions, thereby form light blocking layer 107, and make not oxidized grid metal level partly form described grid 101.
It should be noted that, the first, when selecting grid 101 material, answering after selective oxidation is nonconducting grid 101 materials.
Although the bottom of the second light blocking layer 107 is not oxidized part, still contact with grid 101, because the insulating barrier of the oxidized rear formation in surface of light blocking layer 107 can intercept electric field, therefore, still can avoid the generation of hole leakage current.
Like this, only need form described light blocking layer 107 at formation grid 101 simultaneously, just can avoid the generation of photic leakage current and hole leakage current, and can avoid the increase of composition technique and the increase of thin-film transistor 10 integral thickness.
The embodiment of the present invention also provides a kind of array base palte, and as shown in Figure 6, this array base palte comprises above-mentioned thin-film transistor 10, certainly can also comprise the pixel electrode 20 being electrically connected to the drain electrode 106 of described thin-film transistor 10.
Process complexity with respect to the consistent grid of preparation size 101 with the thin-film transistor of amorphous silicon layer 103, thin-film transistor 10 in the array base palte that the embodiment of the present invention provides, because the size of described grid 101 is less than the size of described amorphous silicon layer 103, makes preparation technology more simple; On this basis, on the one hand, because the size of described grid 101 is less than the size of described amorphous silicon layer 103, make the overlapping region with described source electrode 105 and drain electrode 106 at described grid 101, hole accumulation layer in amorphous silicon layer 103 and ohmic contact layer 104 form PN junction, thereby have avoided the generation of hole leakage current; On the other hand, by described light blocking layer 107 and described grid 101, share effect, can stop that illumination is mapped to described amorphous silicon layer 103, thereby avoid the generation of photic leakage current.
On this basis, as shown in Figure 7, described array base palte can also comprise public electrode 30.

Certainly, described method also comprises: the formation gate insulation layer 102 between described grid 101 and described amorphous silicon layer 103, at described ohmic contact layer 104, away from underlay substrate 100 1 sides, form source electrodes 105 and drain electrode 106.
Process complexity with respect to the consistent grid of preparation size 101 with amorphous silicon layer 103, the embodiment of the present invention, because the size of described grid 101 is less than the size of described amorphous silicon layer 103, makes preparation technology more simple; On this basis, on the one hand, because the size of described grid 101 is less than the size of described amorphous silicon layer 103, make the overlapping region with described source electrode 105 and drain electrode 106 at described grid 101, hole accumulation layer in amorphous silicon layer 103 and ohmic contact layer 104 form PN junction, thereby have avoided the generation of hole leakage current; On the other hand, by described light blocking layer 107 and described grid 101, share effect, can stop that illumination is mapped to described amorphous silicon layer 103, thereby avoid the generation of photic leakage current.
Preferably, shown in figure 4, described light blocking layer 107 is formed between described underlay substrate 100 and described grid 101, and described light blocking layer 107 is also corresponding with described grid 101.
That is: the size of described light blocking layer 107 is greater than the size of described amorphous silicon layer 103, and the projection of described light blocking layer 107 on described underlay substrate 100 covers the projection of described amorphous silicon layer 103 on described underlay substrate 100 completely.
On this basis, if the material of described light blocking layer 107 is insulating material, described light blocking layer 107 can directly contact with described grid 101; If the material of described light blocking layer 107 is conductor material, between described light blocking layer 107 and described grid 101, can form a layer insulating, specifically can arrange according to actual conditions, at this, do not limit.
Like this, only need when preparing thin-film transistor, additionally make one deck light blocking layer 107, and make the size of described light blocking layer 107 be greater than the size of described amorphous silicon layer 103, just can avoid the generation of photic leakage current and hole leakage current, make preparation technology relatively simple simultaneously.

S101, as shown in Figure 8 a forms successively light blocking layer film 107a, grid metallic film 101a, and form photoresist 40 on described grid metallic film 101a on underlay substrate 100.
S102, as shown in Figure 8 b, adopts normal masks plate to being formed with the base board to explosure of described photoresist 40, forms the complete reserve part 401 of photoresist and photoresist is removed part 402 completely after developing; Wherein, the size of the complete reserve part 401 of described photoresist is greater than the size of described grid 101, and the complete reserve part 401 of described photoresist covers described grid 101 completely, and described photoresist is removed corresponding other regions of part 402 completely.
S103, as shown in Figure 8 c, adopts wet-etching technology pair to remove described grid metallic film 101a corresponding to part 402 completely with described photoresist and carries out etching, forms described grid 101.
In this step, adopt wet-etching technology, because wet etching has anisotropy, not only there is vertical etching, also has horizontal undercutting, thereby not only etching is removed described grid metallic film 101a corresponding to part 402 completely with described photoresist, can also etching be positioned at the grid metallic film 101a of the complete reserve part of described photoresist 401 belows, and then form the described grid 101 that size is less than the complete reserve part 401 of described photoresist.
It should be noted that, by controlling the etching parameters of wet etching, can controlling, be positioned at the degree that the grid metallic film 101a of the complete reserve part of described photoresist 401 belows is etched, thereby control the size of the grid 101 forming.
S104, as shown in Fig. 8 d, the complete reserve part 401 of the described photoresist of take is mask, adopts dry etch process to carry out etching to described light blocking layer film 107a, forms described light blocking layer 107.
In this step, adopt dry etch process, be because dry etching can only have vertical etching, thereby only by removing light blocking layer film 107a corresponding to part 402 completely with described photoresist, etch away.
It should be noted that, due to the size of the complete reserve part 401 of photoresist and the consistent size of described light blocking layer 107, and the object that forms described light blocking layer 107 is to stop that illumination is mapped to the remainder of the amorphous silicon layer 103 not blocked by grid 101, therefore, those skilled in the art will be appreciated that, in above-mentioned steps S102, when the size of controlling the complete reserve part 401 of described photoresist is greater than the size of described grid 101, need to consider to make the size of amorphous silicon layer 103 of follow-up formation between the size of described grid 101 and the size of the complete reserve part 401 of described photoresist.
S105, as shown in Fig. 8 e, adopt stripping technology to remove the photoresist of the complete reserve part of described photoresist.
On this basis, shown in figure 4, when forming described amorphous silicon layer 103, only need make its size be greater than the size of described grid 101 and be less than the size of described light blocking layer 107.
By above-mentioned steps S101-S105, can only pass through a composition technique, just can form described light blocking layer 107 and described grid 101.

S201, as shown in Fig. 9 a, on underlay substrate 100, form grid metallic film 101a, and form photoresist 40 on described grid metallic film 101a.
S202, as shown in Fig. 9 b, adopt half rank or gray-tone mask plate to being formed with the base board to explosure of described photoresist, after developing, form the complete reserve part 401 of photoresist, photoresist half reserve part 403 and photoresist and remove part 402 completely; Wherein, the region of the corresponding described grid 101 of the complete reserve part 401 of described photoresist, the region of the corresponding described light blocking layer 107 of described photoresist half reserve part 403, described photoresist is removed corresponding other regions of part 402 completely.
It should be noted that, owing to forming the object of described light blocking layer 107, be to stop that illumination is mapped to the remainder of the amorphous silicon layer 103 not blocked by grid 101, therefore, those skilled in the art will be appreciated that, when the size of photoresist half reserve part 403 is set, need to consider to make the size of amorphous silicon layer 103 of follow-up formation between the size and described grid 101 and the overall dimensions of described light blocking layer 107 of described grid 101.
S203, as shown in Fig. 9 c, adopt etching technics to remove the described grid metallic film 101a that described photoresist is removed part completely.
