Description
本發明涉及有機發光元件的連續式製造系統、連續式製造方法、有機膜裝置以及施體基板組,更具體而言,涉及一種利用兩個施體基板和有機膜蒸鍍工序,在元件基板蒸鍍有機膜層,從而確保經蒸鍍的有機膜的均勻性,減少有機物的損失,並且縮減工序時間(TACT time)以提高生產性的有機發光元件的連續式製造系統、連續式製造方法、有機膜裝置以及施體基板組。 The present invention relates to a continuous manufacturing system, a continuous manufacturing method, an organic film device, and a donor substrate group of an organic light-emitting element, and more specifically, to a vapor deposition step using two donor substrates and an organic film on an element substrate Organic film coating to ensure the uniformity of the vapor-deposited organic film, reduce the loss of organic matter, and reduce the process time (TACT time) to improve the productivity of continuous production systems of organic light-emitting devices, continuous production methods, organic Membrane device and donor substrate group.
平板顯示裝置中,有機電場發光顯示裝置的響應速度在1ms以下,具有高響應速度,耗電量低,並且由於自主發光,沒有視角問題,因此與裝置大小無關地成為優秀的動態影像顯示媒介。此外,能夠在低溫下製作,並且基於現有的半導體工藝技術,製造工藝簡單,因此作為未來的新 一代平板顯示裝置,備受矚目。此外,有機電場發光顯示裝置中使用的有機膜自主發光,因此在整個面上蒸鍍多層有機膜後,對上下端施加電場時,可用於OLED照明裝置中。與現有的LED照明是點光源不同,OLED照明是面光源,因此作為新一代照明受到極大的關注。 In the flat panel display device, the response speed of the organic electroluminescence display device is less than 1 ms, has a high response speed, low power consumption, and because of autonomous light emission, there is no viewing angle problem, so it is an excellent dynamic image display medium regardless of the device size. In addition, it can be produced at a low temperature, and based on the existing semiconductor process technology, the manufacturing process is simple, so it is a new A new generation of flat panel display devices has attracted much attention. In addition, since the organic film used in the organic electroluminescence display device emits light autonomously, it can be used in an OLED lighting device when a multilayer organic film is vapor-deposited on the entire surface and an electric field is applied to the upper and lower ends. Unlike existing LED lighting which is a point light source, OLED lighting is a surface light source, so it has received great attention as a new generation of lighting.
根據這種有機電場發光顯示裝置以及OLED照明的製造工藝中形成有機薄膜時所採用的材料和工序,大致可以分為採用濕式工藝的高分子型元件以及使用蒸鍍工序的低分子型元件。例如,在高分子或者低分子發光層的形成方法中,當採用噴墨印刷方法時,除發光層以外的有機層的材料受到限制,還存在需要在基板上形成用於噴墨印刷的結構的麻煩。此外,當通過蒸鍍工序形成發光層時,會使用額外的金屬掩膜,而隨著平板顯示裝置的大型化,金屬掩膜也需要大型化,此時,隨著金屬掩膜的大型化,發生下垂現象,因此在製作大型元件方面存在困難。 According to the materials and processes used in the formation of organic thin films in the manufacturing process of such organic electroluminescent display devices and OLED lighting, it can be roughly divided into a polymer element using a wet process and a low molecular element using an evaporation process. For example, in the method of forming a polymer or low-molecular light-emitting layer, when the inkjet printing method is used, the material of the organic layer other than the light-emitting layer is limited, and there is a need to form a structure for inkjet printing on the substrate trouble. In addition, when a light-emitting layer is formed through an evaporation process, an additional metal mask is used, and as the flat panel display device becomes larger, the metal mask also needs to be enlarged. In this case, as the metal mask becomes larger, The sagging phenomenon occurs, so it is difficult to manufacture large components.
另一方面,已經公開了利用焦耳加熱形成有機發光層的技術。該技術首先將有機發光層形成在施體基板上,接著將施體基板和元件基本對置,然後通過焦耳加熱對施體基板進行加熱,從而將形成在施體基板上的有機發光層蒸鍍到元件基板上。 On the other hand, a technique of forming an organic light-emitting layer using Joule heating has been disclosed. This technique first forms an organic light-emitting layer on the donor substrate, then the donor substrate and the element are substantially opposed, and then the donor substrate is heated by Joule heating, thereby vapor-depositing the organic light-emitting layer formed on the donor substrate Onto the component substrate.
然而,利用焦耳加熱形成有機發光層的技術需要增加施體基板或者元件基板的翻轉等不必要的工序,從而增加工序時間(TACT time)。 However, the technique of forming an organic light-emitting layer by Joule heating requires an unnecessary process such as inversion of the donor substrate or the element substrate, thereby increasing the process time (TACT time).

參照圖1,本發明的有機發光元件的連續式製造系統100在製作大型的有機電場發光顯示裝置(Organic Light Emitting Device:OLED)以及OLED照明基板時,為了確保有機膜的均勻性,減少有機物損失,並且縮短工序時間,例如,處理焦耳加熱方式的有機膜蒸鍍工序,其利用玻璃、陶瓷或者塑膠材料的第一及第二施體基板在元件基板蒸鍍有機膜。
Referring to FIG. 1, when manufacturing a large-scale organic light emitting display device (Organic Light Emitting Device: OLED) and an OLED lighting substrate in a
為此,本發明的有機發光元件的連續式製造系統100包括:塗覆裝置110,用於在第一施體基板200塗覆有機膜;加載互鎖室130,用於將塗覆有有機物的第一施體基板200投入到蒸鍍裝置150中,或者從蒸鍍裝置150中排出所述第一施體基板200;蒸鍍裝置150,用於採用焦耳加熱方式,通過第二施體基板210,將塗覆在第一施體基板200上的有機膜蒸鍍到元件基板220上;以及控制部102,用於對有機發光元件的連續式製造系統100的相關動作的處理進行控制。
To this end, the
例如,控制部102由筆記型電腦、個人電腦、觸摸面板以及可編程邏輯控制器(PLC)等構成,其控制塗覆裝置
110、加載互鎖室130以及蒸鍍裝置150以處理有機發光元件的連續式製造系統100的相關動作。關於這種控制部102的內容,將在圖9中詳細說明。
For example, the
此外,在本發明的有機發光元件的連續式製造系統100中,在塗覆裝置110、加載互鎖室130以及蒸鍍裝置150之間設有搬送裝置(未圖示),用於搬送第一施體基板200、第二施體基板210。搬送裝置可以包括傳送帶、搬送機器人等。
In addition, in the

In addition, the
其中,在第一及第二施體基板上形成有導電膜,從而在後續的蒸鍍工序中能夠產生焦耳熱。例如,導電膜由金屬或者金屬合金形成,其形狀與沉積在元件基板上的有機膜圖案的形狀相同。這種導電膜用於對電極施加電場以產生焦耳熱,使有機膜通過所產生的焦耳熱蒸發,從而將有機膜蒸鍍到第二施體基板或者元件基板上。 Among them, the conductive films are formed on the first and second donor substrates, so that Joule heat can be generated in the subsequent vapor deposition process. For example, the conductive film is formed of metal or metal alloy, and its shape is the same as the shape of the organic film pattern deposited on the element substrate. This conductive film is used to apply an electric field to the electrode to generate Joule heat, and evaporate the organic film by the generated Joule heat, thereby vapor-depositing the organic film onto the second donor substrate or the element substrate.
具體參照圖2,例如,為了能夠減少工序時間以及工序成本,塗覆裝置110通過利用例如噴頭、旋轉噴嘴等的濕式工藝塗覆有機膜。本實施例的塗覆裝置110包括塗覆室112、工作台116、至少一個噴頭118以及有機物供給裝置120。
Referring specifically to FIG. 2, for example, in order to be able to reduce process time and process cost, the
塗覆室112形成內部空間,在該內部空間內對投入到內
部的第一施體基板200塗覆有機膜。塗覆室112的一側設有開閉的門114,另一側設有在加載互鎖室130之間開閉的第一門132。通過門114,將第一施體基板200投入到塗覆室112中。塗覆室112的下部配置有安放第一施體基板200的工作台116,上部配置有噴頭118。為了在第一施體基板200上塗覆有機膜,塗覆室112被門114以及加載互鎖室130的第一門132密閉,並在其內部形成氮氣氛圍。
The
工作台116用於安放投入到塗覆室112中的第一施體基板200。例如,工作台116由真空卡盤、靜電卡盤或者花崗岩平板等構成,以安放並固定大型的第一施體基板200。
The table 116 is used to place the
噴頭118形成為噴霧式,為了在塗覆室112內部對安放在工作台116上的第一施體基板200的表面塗覆有機物而噴射有機物。根據第一施體基板200的大小,第一施體基板200的上部設置至少一個噴頭118。
The
並且,有機物供給裝置120向噴頭118供給有機物。此外,塗覆裝置110中可以設有回收裝置(未圖示),用於將在第一施體基板200塗覆有機膜之後剩餘的有機物回收到有機物供給裝置120中。為了便於說明,以採用噴頭的噴塗裝置進行了說明,然而也可以是基於旋轉塗覆等公知的濕式工藝的塗覆裝置。
In addition, the organic
這種塗覆裝置110在將第一施體基板200投入到塗覆室112中並安放到工作台116上之後,從有機物供給裝置120向噴頭118供給有機物,並從噴頭118將有機物噴射到第一施體基板200上。被噴射的有機物沉積在第一施體基板200
上,從而塗覆有機膜。此時,塗覆在第一施體基板200上的有機膜的厚度只需能夠充分地覆蓋形成在第一施體基板200上的導電膜即可。這是因為,在後續工序的蒸鍍裝置150中,通過對施加到第一施體基板200的電極的電場施加條件進行控制,就能夠對蒸鍍在元件基板(圖4的220)上的有機膜的厚度進行調節。如此塗覆有有機膜的第一施體基板200通過搬送裝置搬送到加載互鎖室130中。
After applying the
如圖3所示,加載互鎖室130包括:第一門132,設置在一側,用於從塗覆裝置110接收第一施體基板200;第二門134,設置在另一側,用於將第一施體基板200投入到蒸鍍裝置150中或者從蒸鍍裝置150中排出第一施體基板200。由此,加載互鎖室130將塗覆有有機膜的第一施體基板200投入到蒸鍍裝置150中,或者排出將有機物蒸鍍到第二施體基板210上的第一施體基板200。
As shown in FIG. 3, the
並且,參照圖3至圖5,蒸鍍裝置150利用第一及第二施體基板,在元件基板蒸鍍有機膜。本實施例的蒸鍍裝置150包括蒸鍍室152、固定台154、固定部156、驅動部158、供電裝置160。
3 to 5, the
蒸鍍室152形成內部空間,在該內部空間中採用焦耳加熱方式,將有機膜從投入到加載互鎖室130中的第一施體基板200蒸鍍到第二施體基板210上,並採用焦耳加熱方式,將有機膜從第二施體基板210蒸鍍到元件基板220上。在蒸鍍室152的一側配置有加載互鎖室130的第二門134,用於投入並排出第一施體基板200,另一側設有門162,用於投入
並排出元件基板220。
The
此外,下部設有用於固定第二施體基板210的固定台154,從而將第二施體基板210固定並置於所述固定台154上。
In addition, the lower part is provided with a fixing table 154 for fixing the
另一方面,當投入第一施體基板200時,通過加載互鎖室130的第二門134和門162,將蒸鍍室152的內部空間形成為真空氛圍。在蒸鍍室152中,第二施體基板210被固定並置於下部的固定台154上的狀態下,上部固定有第一施體基板200的固定部156進行升降,以使第一施體基板200與第二施體基板配置為隔開最小限度的一定距離d。通過第二門134和門162對這種蒸鍍室152進行密閉。
On the other hand, when the
固定台154設置在蒸鍍室152的下部,用於安放並固定第二施體基板210。此時,第二施體基板210在進行本發明涉及的利用焦耳加熱的有機膜蒸鍍工序時,發揮將塗覆在第一施體基板200上的有機膜蒸鍍到元件基板220上的媒介的功能。
The fixing table 154 is provided at the lower part of the
固定部156設置在蒸鍍室152的上部,呈下部末端的一部分折彎的形狀,以便固定從加載互鎖室130投入的第一施體基板200,並且為了處理有機膜蒸鍍工序,通過驅動部158進行升降,從而使第一施體基板200與第二施體基板210之間保持最小限度的一定距離。
The fixing
此時,固定部156並非局限於如上所述的、下部末端的一部分折彎以便承載第一施體基板200的形狀,只要能夠固定第一施體基板200並進行升降,就不局限於特定形狀,也
可以使用靜電卡盤等卡盤來從上部固定第一施體基板200。
At this time, the fixing
當完成將有機膜從第一施體基板200蒸鍍到第二施體基板210上的工序時,第一施體基板200上升,然後通過第二門134從蒸鍍室152排出,並通過第一門132再次投入到塗覆裝置112中。
When the process of vapor-depositing the organic film from the
第一施體基板200從蒸鍍室152排出後,元件基板220通過搬送裝置170,從蒸鍍室152的門162投入到蒸鍍室152中,然後通過搬送裝置170進行下降,從而位於與蒸鍍有機膜的第二施體基板210保持最小限度的一定距離d之處。作為搬送裝置170,可以使用諸如機械臂的常規的搬送裝置。
After the
此時,為了精確地保持第二施體基板210和元件基板220之間的最小距離d,如圖6所示,可以在蒸鍍室152的側面設置側面支撐部164。
At this time, in order to accurately maintain the minimum distance d between the
此外,大面積的元件基板220有可能發生基板中心部的下垂,因此,如圖7所示,也可以具備固定在蒸鍍室152的下部,朝向下部工作台154的側面上部凸出並且末端的一部分被折彎的下部支撐部166。此時,可以在固定工作台154的上部設置一個以上的中央支撐部168。如圖8a及圖8b所示,中央支撐部168設置在第二施體基板210所處的區域之外,可以構成為形態連續的凸出部,也可以以鑷子形式彼此隔開地設置多個。
In addition, the large-
驅動部158結合於蒸鍍室152的上部,通過控制部102的控制,使固定有第一施體基板的固定部156和元件基板220搬送用搬送裝置170上下移動。
The driving
並且,供電裝置160進行供電,以對第一施體基板200或者第二施體基板210的電極施加電場。為此,供電裝置160接觸形成在第一施體基板200以及第二施體基板210上的導電膜,從而施加電場。此時,可以根據導電膜的電阻、長度、厚度等各種因素確定電場施加條件。本實施例中施加的電流可以是直流或者交流,施加的電場可以是約1kW/cm2至1000kW/cm2,施加一次電場的時間可以約在1/1000000~100秒以內。
In addition, the
如圖3所示,這種蒸鍍裝置150首先在將塗覆有有機膜的第一施體基板200從加載互鎖室130投入到蒸鍍室152中後,將第一施體基板200置於固定部156上並進行固定。蒸鍍裝置150通過驅動部158,使固定在固定部156上的第一施體基板200下降,以接近或遠離位於固定台154上的第二施體基板210一定距離,然後由供電裝置160向第一施體基板200供電,從而對第一施體基板200施加電場。由此,塗覆在第一施體基板200上的有機膜被進行焦耳加熱,從而在第二施體基板210上蒸鍍有機膜。即,當對第一施體基板200施加電場時,形成在第一施體基板200上的導電膜上產生焦耳熱,所產生的焦耳熱傳遞到形成在第一施體基板200上部的有機膜,通過所傳遞的焦耳熱,形成在存在導電膜的部分的有機膜進行蒸發而轉印到第二施體基板210上,從而在第二施體基板210上蒸鍍有機膜。
As shown in FIG. 3, this
此外,蒸鍍裝置150在將有機膜蒸鍍到第二施體基板210上後,通過驅動部158上升固定部156,以使第二施體基
板210與第一施體基板200隔開,然後將第一施體基板200排出到加載互鎖室130。
In addition, after vapor-depositing the organic film on the
該工序結束後,如圖5所示的蒸鍍裝置150,搬送裝置170通過門162將元件基板220投入到蒸鍍室152中,然後元件基板220下降以與第二施體基板210保持一定間隔。
After this process is completed, as shown in the
此外,蒸鍍裝置150由供電裝置160向第二施體基板210供電,以對第二施體基板210施加電場,由此將蒸鍍在第二施體基板210上的有機膜轉印到元件基板220上,從而在元件基板220上蒸鍍有機膜。同樣,在此對第二施體基板210施加電場時,形成在第二施體基板210上的導電膜上產生焦耳熱,所產生的焦耳熱傳遞到形成在第二施體基板210上部的有機膜,由此使形成在第二施體基板210上存在導電膜的部分的有機膜蒸發,以使有機膜蒸鍍到元件基板220上,從而完成通過焦耳加熱對於一個元件基板220的有機膜蒸鍍工序。
In addition, the
接著,蒸鍍裝置150通過搬送裝置170使蒸鍍有有機膜的元件基板220上升後,從蒸鍍室152排出,並通過加載互鎖室130投入另一個第一施體基板200,由此反復處理上述的有機膜蒸鍍工序。此外,對於完成有機膜蒸鍍工序而從蒸鍍裝置150排出的第一施體基板200,通過清洗裝置以及乾燥裝置而被清洗以及乾燥。
Next, the
本實施例中說明的結構為,在蒸鍍裝置150中,通過蒸鍍室152上部的固定部156固定或者通過搬送裝置170移動第一施體基板200或者元件基板220,並且將第二施體基板
