Description

The dot structure of light sensing unit and this light sensing unit of tool and display panels
Technical field
The invention relates to a kind of dot structure and display panel, and particularly relevant for a kind of dot structure and display panels with light sensing unit.
Background technology
Along with the progress of science and technology, also constantly development and its demand grow with each passing day the technology of display.It is early stage that (Cathode Ray Tube CRT) has excellent display quality and technology maturation, therefore monopolizes the monitor market all the year round owing to cathode-ray tube (CRT).Yet, recently because the rise of environmental protection notion, the big and bigger characteristic of generation radiant quantity of energy resource consumption based on cathode-ray tube (CRT), cathode-ray tube (CRT) adds that its product flattening space is limited, so can't satisfy the market trend of market for light, thin, short, little, U.S. and low consumpting power.Therefore, (Flat Panel Display FPD) replaces the thick and heavy negative electrode crt display of tradition to frivolous flat-panel screens gradually.Common flat-panel screens comprises plasma display (PlasmaDisplay Panel, PDP), LCD (Liquid Crystal Display, LCD) and Thin Film Transistor-LCD (Thin Film Transistor Liquid Crystal Display, TFT-LCD) etc., have wherein that high image quality, space utilization efficient are good, the Thin Film Transistor-LCD of low consumpting power, advantageous characteristic such as radiationless becomes the main flow in market gradually.
Thin Film Transistor-LCD is that (Thin Film Transistor, TFT) as active member, and thin film transistor (TFT) can be divided into amorphous silicon film transistor (a-Si TFT) and polycrystalline SiTFT (p-Si TFT) with thin film transistor (TFT).Polycrystalline SiTFT can be divided into low-temperature polysilicon film transistor (Low Temperature p-Si TFT) and high temperature polysilicon thin film transistor (TFT) (High Temperaturep-Si TFT) again.Normally (Low PressureChemical Vapor Deposition, LPCVD) and through the cycle of annealing more than 900 ℃, so the substrate of polycrystalline SiTFT LCD mostly is quartz material by low-pressure chemical vapor deposition in the formation of polysilicon.Yet, because the present substrate that mostly adopts glass to be used as the polycrystalline SiTFT LCD, and the glass substrate fusing point is about between 500 ℃ to 600 ℃, therefore develops low temperature polycrystalline silicon (Low Temperature p-Si, LTPS) technology.
Because the low temperature polycrystalline silicon technology has semiconductor element (as thin film transistor (TFT), optical diode etc.) is made in ability on the glass substrate, so existing document proposes to utilize the low temperature polycrystalline silicon technology to produce optical sensor and dot structure simultaneously on substrate, so that LCD not only has the function that image shows, also has the function of identification of fingerprint.

Yet no matter whether user's finger presses on the optical sensor 10, optical sensor 10 all can be subjected to the irradiation of backlight L2.In other words, even under the situation of the irradiation that is not subjected to reflected light L1, optical sensor 10 still can be subjected to the irradiation of backlight L2 and produce photocurrent, so optical sensor 10 just can descend for the sensing sensitivity of reflected light L1.In addition, under most situation, the intensity of backlight L2 can be greater than the intensity of reflected light L1, and under the prolonged exposure of backlight L2, optical sensor 10 is difficult to sense the photocurrent variations that reflected light L1 is brought.
Hold above-mentioned, in above-mentioned optical sensor 10, since P type doped region 14a and N type doped region 14b be with dot structure in low-temperature polysilicon film transistor make in the lump, therefore, the doping content of P type doped region 14a and N type doped region 14b is subjected to the restriction of the low-temperature polysilicon film transistor in the dot structure easily.In other words, existing low temperature polycrystalline silicon processing procedure can't be taken into account the photoelectric characteristic of optical sensor 10 and the opering characteristic of electric apparatus of low-temperature polysilicon film transistor.
