Cleaning force measuring sample and measuring method thereof {SAMPLE AND METHOD FOR MEASURING DETERGENCY OF DETERGENT}
[10] The present invention relates to a cleaning force measurement sample and a measuring method thereof, and more particularly, to a cleaning force measurement sample and a measuring method thereof capable of measuring the cleaning power of the cleaning agent.
[11] In general, a liquid crystal display device is one of flat panel displays that display characters, images, and moving images with liquid crystals.
[12] Liquid crystal display is a process of forming an LCD unit cell on two glass substrates, a process of forming an LCD panel by cutting an LCD unit cell from a glass substrate, a process of manufacturing an LCD panel assembly by assembling a drive module on an LCD panel, and an LCD. It consists of the process of assembling the case to the panel assembly.
[13] The process of forming the LCD unit cell in the process of manufacturing the liquid crystal display device includes a very precise thin film manufacturing process. For example, the process of forming an LCD unit cell includes a process of manufacturing a thin film transistor on a glass substrate.
[14] The thin film transistor includes a plurality of patterned thin films, such as a gate electrode, a gate line, a gate insulating film, a channel layer, a source electrode, and a drain electrode. Since the precisely patterned thin film transistor has a very small size, a wide variety of process defects are generated by fine particles or foreign matters. For example, a liquid crystal display device is composed of millions of thin film transistors, and even if only a few to several tens of thin film transistors are not operated, the liquid crystal display device cannot be commercialized.
[15] At this time, the characteristics of the channel layer are changed sensitively to particles or foreign matter. In the channel layer, a channel, which is an electron path, is formed by a voltage applied to the gate electrode. At this time, the foreign matter or particles included in the channel layer is combined with the electrons of the channel layer to change the amount of current and voltage intensity passing through the channel layer. If the amount of current passing through the channel layer and the intensity of the voltage are different, the displayed image is distorted.
[16] Recently, various cleaning agents have been developed to remove particles or foreign substances from the channel layer in order to prevent such display defects. In order to test the performance of the cleaners or to improve the performance of the cleaners, a method of manufacturing a liquid crystal display panel and then testing the test substrate is mainly used.
[17] However, such a method has a problem that it is difficult to accurately recognize the characteristics of the cleaning agent due to many factors affecting the quality of the image other than the characteristics of the cleaning agent, and takes a long time for testing.
[18] Accordingly, the present invention has been made in view of such a conventional problem, and a first object of the present invention is to provide a cleansing force measurement sample capable of simply measuring the characteristics of a cleaning agent for removing particles or foreign substances.
[19] Moreover, the 2nd objective of this invention is providing the manufacturing method of the cleaning force measurement sample which can easily measure the characteristic of the cleaning agent which removes a particle or a foreign material.

In order to provide a cleaning force measuring method for forming a channel in a channel layer and applying a test power supply to a source electrode, the current output to the drain electrode is measured.
[22] According to the present invention, it is possible to greatly shorten the manufacturing process of the sample for measuring the cleaning power of the cleaning agent, and to determine the cleaning characteristics of the cleaning agent by measuring the cleaning power only by the parameters in the process of cleaning with the cleaning agent.

In one embodiment, the gate insulating layer 230 is silicon oxide (SiO 2 ) insulating the gate electrode 220, and has a thickness of 2000 ± 200 μs. The gate insulating layer 220 is formed by a chemical vapor deposition (Chemical Vapored Deposition) process or a diffusion process. The gate insulating film 220 may use a nitride film NiO x in addition to silicon oxide.
[39] The etching layer 235 is a pattern formed by depositing a predetermined pattern, for example, an n + amorphous silicon layer on the top surface of the gate insulating layer 230, and then etching the same. An etching layer 235 is formed to test the cleaning power of the cleaning agent on the etched thin film surface.

[48] Referring to FIG. 4A, a gate electrode 20 is formed on the base substrate 10. In one embodiment, the gate electrode 20 is a single crystal silicon doped with metal or ions. In the present invention, preferably, single crystal silicon doped with ions is deposited on the gate electrode 20.
[49] 4B is a flowchart illustrating a gate insulating film formed on an upper surface of a gate electrode according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.
[50] Referring to FIG. 4B, a gate insulating layer 30 is formed on the top surface of the gate electrode 20. The gate insulating film 30 is an oxide film (SiO 2 ) or a nitride film (NiO x ) formed by a chemical vapor deposition process. At this time, the oxide film or nitride film is formed on the surface of the gate electrode 20 to a thickness of about 2000 ± 200 Å.
[51] 4C is a flowchart illustrating cleaning the surface of the gate insulating layer according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.
[52] Referring to FIG. 4C, the cleaning bath 75 including the cleaning agent is supplied to the cleaning bath 70, and the base substrate 10 having the gate insulating film 30 is contained in the cleaning solution 75. Particles and foreign matter adhering to the surface of the gate insulating film 30 are cleaned by the cleaning liquid 75 including the cleaning agent. At this time, various kinds of cleaning agents may be used.
[53] 4D is a process diagram illustrating the formation of a channel layer on the surface of a gate insulating film according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.
[54] Referring to FIG. 4D, after the gate insulating film 30 is cleaned and the gate insulating film 30 is dried, the channel layer 40 is formed on the surface of the gate insulating film 30. An amorphous silicon thin film or a polycrystalline silicon thin film is used for the channel layer 40. Preferably, the channel layer 40 used in the present invention is a polycrystalline silicon thin film.
[55] In order to form the channel layer 40, first, an amorphous silicon thin film 45 is formed on the surface of the gate insulating film 30 to a thickness of 500 ± 50 Å. The amorphous silicon thin film 45 is formed by a chemical vapor deposition process. The excimer laser beam 48 is scanned again by the excimer laser beam generator 49 on the amorphous silicon thin film 45 formed on the gate insulating film 30.

[56] 4E is a flowchart illustrating a source electrode and a drain electrode on an upper surface of a channel layer according to an embodiment of the present invention.
[57] Referring to FIG. 4E, mercury is dropped on the upper surface of the channel layer 40 to form the source electrode 50 and the drain electrode 60. The source electrode 50 is dropped to the channel layer 40 in a dot shape, and the drain electrode 60 is formed in the channel layer 40 to surround the source electrode 50.
[58] Hereinafter, a process of evaluating the performance of the cleaning agent with the cleaning force measurement sample will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[59] 5 is a conceptual diagram illustrating that test power is applied to a cleaning force measurement sample according to an embodiment of the present invention.
[60] Referring to FIG. 5, the first test probe 25 to which the gate voltage is applied is contacted to the gate electrode 20, and the second test probe 55 to which the reference voltage is applied is contacted to the source electrode 50. A third test probe 65 for measuring a current output to the drain electrode 60 is contacted with the drain electrode 60.
[61] At this time, the cleaning power measurement samples are used in all two types in one embodiment.
[62] The cleaning force measurement sample is composed of the first cleaning force measurement sample without the etching layer and the second cleaning force measurement sample with the etching layer. In this case, the first cleaning force measurement sample and the second cleaning force measurement sample are not cleaned of the gate insulating film, the gate insulating film is cleaned with HF, the gate insulating film is cleaned with an organic material, and the gate insulating film is cleaned with pure water. The interface characteristics of the insulating film and the channel layer are measured. Interface properties are measured by current. This is summarized in <Table 1>.

[64] In Table 1, the numerical value is amperes [A] output from the drain electrode.
[65] According to Table 1, the amount of current in the measurement sample without cleaning the gate insulating film was relatively small. The small amount of current means that a large number of traps, ions, particles, and the like are attached to the interface between the gate insulating film and the channel layer.
[66] On the other hand, the amount of current in the cleaning force measurement sample which cleaned the gate insulating film with HF increased significantly compared with the case without cleaning. This means that when the gate insulating film is cleaned with HF, most of the ions or particles on the surface of the gate insulating film are removed.
[67] In addition, the amount of current in the cleaning force measurement sample in which the gate insulating film was cleaned with the organic material was increased rather than without cleaning, but was somewhat smaller than when cleaning with HF. In particular, when there is an etching layer between the gate insulating film and the channel layer, the amount of current is significantly reduced.
[68] Finally, the amount of current in the cleaning force measurement sample which cleaned the gate insulating film with pure water showed almost the same amount of current as when the gate insulating film was cleaned with HF.
[69] In this way, even when the concentration of HF is changed or when other additives are mixed with HF, the characteristics of the cleaning agent can be easily known as the amount of current.
[70] Therefore, the characteristics of the cleaning agent can be determined only by forming the channel layer, the gate insulating film, the cleaning and the channel layer on the base substrate, and then forming the drain electrode and the source electrode with mercury.
[71] As described in detail above, the characteristics of the cleaner are judged by changing the type of the cleaner or the components contained in the cleaner little by little to greatly shorten the time required for the development of the cleaner, and to accurately determine the characteristics of the cleaner.
[72] In the detailed description of the present invention described above with reference to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, those skilled in the art or those skilled in the art having ordinary knowledge in the scope of the invention described in the claims to be described later It will be understood that various modifications and variations can be made in the present invention without departing from the scope of the present invention.
