According to the different functions of the different TFTs, the present invention employs different working structures for the Switching TFT and the Driving TFT to respectively implement deposition and photolithography, and employs different materials for the active layers of the Switching TFT and the Driving TFT to differentiate the electrical properties of different TFTs in the TFT substrate.

The present invention provides a TFT substrate structure and a manufacturing method thereof. In the manufacturing method of a TFT substrate structure according to present invention, a graphene layer is formed on a semiconductor layer and after the formation of a second metal layer, the second metal layer is used as a shielding mask to conduct injection of fluoride ions into the graphene layer to form a modified area in a portion of the graphene layer that is located on and corresponds to a channel zone of the semiconductor layer, wherein the modified area of the graphene layer shows a property of electrical insulation and a property of blocking moisture/oxygen so as to provide protection to the channel zone; portions of the graphene layer that are located under source and drain electrodes are not doped with ions and preserves the excellent electrical conduction property of graphene and thus electrical connection between the source and drain electrodes and the semiconductor layer can be achieved without formation of a via in the graphene layer, making a TFT device so manufactured showing excellent I-V (current-voltage) output characteristics and stability, saving one mask operation process, shortening the manufacturing time, and lowering down the manufacturing cost.

A thin film transistor array panel includes a first conductive layer including a gate electrode; a channel layer disposed over the gate; and a second conductive layer disposed over the channel layer. The second conductive layer includes a multi-layered portion defining a source electrode and a drain electrode, which includes a first sub-layer, a second sub-layer, and a third sub-layer sequentially disposed one over another. Both the third and the first sub-layers include indium and zinc oxide materials. An indium to zinc content ratio in the first sub-layer is greater than that in the third sub-layer. The content ratio differentiation between the first and the third sub-layers affects a lateral etch profile associated with a gap generated in the second conductive layer between the source and the drain electrodes, where the associated gap width in the third sub-layer is wider than that that in the first sub-layer.

With an image sensor in which the amplifier circuit is disposed at each pixel, there is such an issue that the threshold voltage of the transistor fluctuates so that the signal voltage fluctuates because a voltage is continuously applied between the source and the gate of the transistor at all times when using the amorphous thin film semiconductor as the transistor that constitutes an amplifier circuit. The gate-source potential of the TFT that constitutes the amplifier circuit is controlled so that the gate terminal voltage becomes smaller than the source terminal voltage in an integrating period where the pixels accumulate the signals, and controlled so that the gate terminal voltage becomes larger than the source terminal voltage in a readout period where the pixels output the signals.

A display may have an array of organic light-emitting diode display pixels. Each display pixel may have a light-emitting diode that emits light under control of a drive transistor. Each display pixel may also have control transistors for compensating and programming operations. The array of display pixels may have rows and columns. Row lines may be used to apply row control signals to rows of the display pixels. Column lines (data lines) may be used to apply display data and other signals to respective columns of display pixels. A bottom conductive shielding structure may be formed below each drive transistor. The bottom conductive shielding structure may serve to shield the drive transistor from any electric field generated from the adjacent row and column lines. The bottom conductive shielding structure may be electrically floating or coupled to a power supply line.

It is an object of the present invention to connect a wiring, an electrode, or the like formed with two incompatible films (an ITO film and an aluminum film) without increasing the cross-sectional area of the wiring and to achieve lower power consumption even when the screen size becomes larger. The present invention provides a two-layer structure including an upper layer and a lower layer having a larger width than the upper layer. A first conductive layer is formed with Ti or Mo, and a second conductive layer is formed with aluminum (pure aluminum) having low electric resistance over the first conductive layer. A part of the lower layer projected from the end section of the upper layer is bonded with ITO.

Disclosed are a manufacturing method of a dual gate TFT substrate and a structure thereof. The manufacturing method of a dual gate TFT substrate includes sequentially manufacturing a bottom gate, a first isolation layer, an island shaped semiconductor layer, and a second isolation layer on a substrate; then, depositing a second metal layer, and implementing a patterning process to the second metal layer with one mask to form a source, a drain and a top gate at the same time; and then, sequentially manufacturing a third isolation layer and a pixel electrode. It can promote the stability of the TFT, reduce the amount of the masks, and shorten the process flow, simplifying the manufacture process and diminishing the production cost. In the structure of the dual gate TFT substrate, the structure is simple, and the stability of the TFT is better, and easy to manufacture.

A plurality of ends respectively included in the plurality of scanning signal connection wirings are connected to the partial circuit, and are arranged in the Y-axis direction. A distance in the Y-axis direction between the respective centers of the two ends adjacent to each other is narrower than the pitch.

By applying an AC pulse to a gate of a transistor which easily deteriorates, a shift in threshold voltage of the transistor is suppressed. However, in a case where amorphous silicon is used for a semiconductor layer of a transistor, the occurrence of a shift in threshold voltage naturally becomes a problem for a transistor which constitutes a part of circuit that generates an AC pulse. A shift in threshold voltage of a transistor which easily deteriorates and a shift in threshold voltage of a turned-on transistor are suppressed by signal input to a gate electrode of the transistor which easily deteriorates through the turned-on transistor. In other words, a structure for applying an AC pulse to a gate electrode of a transistor which easily deteriorates through a transistor to a gate electrode of which a high potential (VDD) is applied, is included.

A concentration of the fluorine is decreasing, as the fluorine of the gate insulating layer being more adjacent to the substrate.
