Array structure, manufacturing method thereof, array substrate and display device
First Claim
1. A method for manufacturing an array structure, the array structure comprising a gate signal access terminal and a source/drain signal access terminal, wherein the method comprises:
- forming a gate insulating layer on a substrate;
forming a source/drain metal layer on the gate insulating layer, etching the source/drain metal layer to form a through-hole structure provided with an outward-inclined side wall in the source/drain metal layer at a position corresponding to the source/drain signal access terminal; and
forming a conductive film at a position corresponding to the gate signal access terminal and forming a conductive film at the position corresponding to the source/drain signal access terminal,wherein the etching the source/drain metal layer to form the through-hole structure provided with the outward-inclined side wall in the source/drain metal layer at the position corresponding to the source/drain signal access terminal comprises;
forming a layer of photoresist, provided with an opening, which comprises an inclined side wall and corresponds to the source/drain signal access terminal, on the source/drain metal layer;
performing a wet etching to the source/drain metal layer to form an opening, which comprises a vertical side wall, in the source/drain metal layer at a position corresponding to the opening of the photoresist, wherein the opening, which comprises a vertical side wall, in the source/drain metal layer is aligned with the opening, which comprises the inclined side wall, in the photoresist;
performing a dry etching to both of the photoresist and the source/drain metal layer to form the through-hole structure provided with the outward-inclined side wall in the source/drain metal layer and at the position corresponding to the source/drain signal access terminal, and to remove the inclined side wall of the opening in the photoresist and obtain an opening, which comprises a vertical side wall, in the photoresist, wherein the vertical side wall of the opening in the photoresist is aligned with an upper edge of the outward-inclined side wall of the through-hole structure in the source/drain metal layer; and
removing the photoresist.

Abstract
An array structure and a manufacturing method thereof are disclosed. The method for manufacturing the array structure includes: forming a gate insulating layer on a glass substrate; and etching the gate insulating layer at a position corresponding to a source/drain signal access terminal, and forming a through-hole structure provided with an outward-inclined side wall in the gate insulating layer. Conductive films in the source/drain signal access terminal and a gate signal access terminal which have wires thereof alternate with each other have a same height, so that the forces applied to conductive balls can be more uniform, and hence the conductivity can be improved.
