Problems solved by technology

[0004] At present, the copper / molybdenum-titanium metal film layer, because the molybdenum-titanium layer is difficult to etch, the etching solution used basically contains fluoride, although fluoride can have a certain beneficial effect on the removal of molybdenum layer residues in the etching process, but fluorine The compound will react with the substrate glass, fluoride ions (F - ) and silicon dioxide (SiO 2 ) produces a chemical reaction, and then destroys the substrate glass, affecting the subsequent process, and fluoride is an environmentally unfriendly substance, which has adverse effects on the health of personnel and increases the cost of wastewater treatment

Abstract

The invention provides an etching solution composition and a method for forming a metal circuit. The etching solution composition comprises 10-20wt% of hydrogen peroxide, 4-13wt% of organic acid, 1-5wt% of hydrogen peroxide stabilizer, 2-10wt% of organic base, 0.001-1wt% of corrosion inhibitor, 2-5wt% of PH buffering agent and 47-80wt% of deionized water. The method comprises the step of etching acopper-containing metal film by using the etching solution composition to pattern the copper-containing metal film to form the metal circuit.

Description

【Technical field】 [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of display panels, in particular to an etching solution composition and a method for forming metal circuits. 【Background technique】 [0002] The copper lines used in the gate and data metal lines of large-scale displays have the advantage of low impedance compared with the aluminum lines in the prior art, but the adhesion between copper and glass substrates is poor, so molybdenum or molybdenum alloys are usually used as transition layer. [0003] The copper / molybdenum metal structure widely used in the industry has galvanic corrosion (Galvaniccorrosion) during the etching process, which easily causes the etching rate of the two layers to mismatch, resulting in undercut phenomenon, which may lead to light leakage. Affecting the contrast ratio and producing thin film transistor (thin film transistor, TFT) electric shift and other problems, affecting the display effect. However, since the titanium in the mo...
