而成為主流。主動矩陣式顯示裝置藉由薄膜電晶體等主動 元件來進行驅動,然而薄膜電晶體的通道長度卻受到曝光 機的解析度(resolution)的限制,而無法進一步提升驅動 的效能。 圖1A至圖1E為習知例如液晶顯示裝置所使用的薄膜 電晶體的製造流程圖。首先,如圖1A所示,在一玻璃載 板11上形成一閘極12。當然,閘極12的形成包含薄膜沉 積製程、黃光微影(photolithography

因此’如何提供一種顯示裝置、顯示面板、主動元件 癱基板及其製造方法,能夠縮短通道,進而提升元件效能, 只為重要課題之'〇 【發明内容】 有鑑於上述課題,本發明之目的為提供--種能夠縮短 通道,進而提升元件效能的顯示裝置、顯系面板、主動元 件基板及其製造方法。 為達上述目的,依本發明之_種主動元件基板的製造 方法包含以下步驟:形成一通道層於一載板之上;形成一 201113952

Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a display device, a display panel, and an active device substrate, and more particularly to a display device, a display panel, an active device substrate, and a method of fabricating the same. [Prior Art] The display device can be classified into Passive-Matrix (PM) and Active-Matrix (AM) according to the driving method, and the active matrix type can provide better performance than the passive matrix type. Become the mainstream. Active matrix display devices are driven by active components such as thin film transistors. However, the channel length of the thin film transistor is limited by the resolution of the exposure machine, and the driving efficiency cannot be further improved. 1A to 1E are flowcharts showing the manufacture of a thin film transistor used in, for example, a liquid crystal display device. First, as shown in Fig. 1A, a gate 12 is formed on a glass carrier 11. Of course, the formation of the gate 12 includes a thin film deposition process, a yellow photolithography process, and a patterning process, wherein the yellow light lithography process may include photoresist, exposure, development, and photoresist removal process. The steps are not repeated here. Then, as shown in FIG. 1B, an insulating layer 13 and a channel layer 14 are sequentially formed on the gate 12 and the glass carrier 11; wherein the channel layer 14 comprises an amorphous Si (a-Si) : H) layer 141 and a doped layer (n+ a-Si) 142. Further, as shown in Fig. 1C, a drain 15 and a source 16 are formed at the ends of the layer 14 at 201113952. In Fig. 1D, the pattern of the doping layer 142 is performed with the pattern of the drain 15 and the source 16 as a mask, so that the channel layer 14 has a recess 143. Then, as shown in Fig. 1E, a passivation layer 17 is formed to cover the drain 15, the source and the channel layer 14, and a contact hole is formed by a yellow photolithography process and an etching process. Next, as shown in Fig. ip., a patterned pixel electrode layer PE is deposited on the passivation layer 17, and the pixel electrode layer pE is in contact with the drain electrode 15 via the contact hole. In the above process, the formation of the drain 15 and the source 16 also includes a yellow-light process, so that the gate 15 and the source μ are patterned. However, due to the exposure machine used in the yellow lithography process, the resolution is limited, so that the distance D1 between the drain 15 and the source 16 also has a certain length, resulting in the channel length of the channel layer (which can be regarded as the spacing Dl). ) is limited and can no longer be shortened, thus limiting component performance. Therefore, how to provide a display device, a display panel, an active device, a substrate, and a method of manufacturing the same, which can shorten the channel and improve the performance of the device, is only an important issue. [Invention] In view of the above problems, the object of the present invention is Provided is a display device, a display panel, an active device substrate, and a method of manufacturing the same capable of shortening a channel and thereby improving component performance. In order to achieve the above object, a method for manufacturing an active device substrate according to the present invention comprises the steps of: forming a channel layer on a carrier; forming a 201113952 drain and a source at both ends of the channel layer; forming a The cover layer covers the channel layer and covers at least a portion of the drain and the source, and the cover layer has a recess corresponding to the channel layer; the cover layer is partially removed, the channel layer is partially exposed corresponding to the recess; and the channel layer is partially removed to make the channel layer There is a groove between the drain and the source. To achieve the above object, an active device substrate according to the present invention comprises a carrier, a channel layer, a cathode, a source, and a cover layer. The channel layer is placed on the carrier. The drain and the source are disposed at both ends of the channel layer, and the channel layer has a groove between the drain and the source. The cover layer is disposed on the channel layer and is located between the outer periphery of the groove and the drain and the source. To achieve the above object, a display panel according to the present invention comprises a substrate and an active device substrate. The active device substrate is disposed opposite to the substrate and includes a carrier, a channel layer, a cathode, a source, and a cover layer. The channel layer is disposed on the carrier. The drain and the source are disposed at both ends of the channel layer, and the channel layer has a groove between the drain and the source. The cover layer is disposed on the channel layer and is located between the outer periphery of the groove and the drain and the source. To achieve the above objective, a display device according to the present invention includes a display panel and a backlight module, and the backlight module is adjacent to the display panel. The display panel includes a substrate and an active component substrate. The active device substrate is opposite to the substrate and includes a carrier, a channel layer, a drain, a source and a cover layer. The channel layer is disposed above the carrier. The drain and the source are disposed at both ends of the channel layer, and the channel layer has a groove between the drain and the source. The cover layer is disposed on the channel layer and is located at the outer periphery of the groove and the drain and the source of the 201113952. The display device of the present invention, the display panel, the active device substrate and the manufacturing method thereof are formed in the bungee After the source and the source, the cover layer of the channel layer is not directly formed, but a cover layer is formed to cover the channel layer, and at least a part of the drain and the source, and the cover layer has a recess corresponding to the channel layer. The cover layer is then partially removed (e.g., etched) such that the channel layers are partially exposed and partially exposed. At this time, the length of the exposed portion of the channel layer must be smaller than the distance between the drain and the source, and then the channel layer is partially removed, that is, the exposed portion of the channel layer is removed, so that the channel layer has a concave between the drain and the source. Slot 'This groove can be seen as a channel for an active component. Thus, the present invention can break the limit of the resolution of the conventional exposure machine, shorten the length of the channel, thereby promoting the electric field distribution and improving the performance of the component. In addition, the 'cover layer can also protect the portion of the channel layer that is not to be removed from ions during the removal process', thereby avoiding leakage current. [Embodiment] Hereinafter, a display device, a display panel, an active device substrate, and a method of manufacturing the same according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings, wherein the same elements will be described with the same reference numerals. A flow of a method of manufacturing the active device substrate 20 of the preferred embodiment of the present invention is shown in Figs. 2A to 2G. In this embodiment, the active device is exemplified by a Thin Film Transistor (TFT). First, as shown in FIG. 2A, a gate 22 is formed on a carrier 21. The material of the carrier 21 may be selected from the group consisting of glass, plastic, sapphire, polymer, and combinations thereof. The carrier 21 is exemplified by a slab; > 201113952 The gate 22 is deposited by thin film. Micro-patterning and forming on the carrier 2], wherein the yellow two-second photoresist, the exposure, the development of the wire after the process, etc. (4), the product can be sputtered, the etching can be wet etching (Wd In addition, the material of the gate 22 may include a metal or an alloy such as chromium, aluminum, copper or molybdenum. As shown in FIG. 2B, an insulating layer 23 is formed on the gate 22, And forming a channel layer 24 on the insulating layer 23. The insulating layer 23 and the channel layer 24 are formed by chemical vapor deposition (CVD). The stomach material of the insulating layer 23 may comprise a nitrogen cerium compound (SiNx). A semiconductor layer 241 and a doped layer 242 are sequentially formed on the insulating layer 23. The material of the semiconductor 241 includes an amorphous germanium (a-Si:H). The doped layer 242 is doped with N^. For example, +a-Si), for example, germanium containing a high concentration of phosphorus, the doped layer 2仏 can reduce the interface potential difference and form an ohmic junction (〇hmicc〇mact) As shown in Fig. 2C, a drain 25 and a source 26 are formed at both ends of the channel layer 24. The drain 25 and the source 26 can be patterned by a yellow lithography process, in which a pattern is formed. The steps of the drain 25 and the source 26 include sputtering and wet etching. The material of the drain 25 and the source 26 may include a metal or an alloy such as chromium, aluminum, copper or molybdenum. As shown in FIG. 2D, a cover layer 28 is formed. The channel layer 24 is covered and covers at least a portion of the drain 25 and the source 26, as exemplified by full coverage. Further, the cover layer 28 has a recess 281 corresponding to the channel layer 24. The cover layer 28 can be chemically vaporized. Formed by spin coating, spin coating, or slit coating. In this embodiment, the cover layer 201111952 can be made of a material having better shape (c〇nformity). For example, tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) enables the cover layer 28 to form a distinct recess 281 after formation. As shown in Fig. 2E, the cover layer 28 is partially removed so that the channel layer 24 corresponds to the recess 281 and partially Exposed. Here, removal of anisotropy, for example, by etching Anisotropic) etching, non-isotropic etching, for example, dry etching. After etching, a portion of the cap layer 28 is left between the drain 25 and the source 26, and on both sides of the recess 281, and The mask is passed through for 24 seconds. As shown in Fig. 2F, the channel layer 24 is partially removed such that the channel layer 24 has a recess 243 between the drain 25 and the source 26. In this embodiment, the etching mode is an anisotropic residue, such as dry silver etching, and the portion of the channel layer 24 is mainly an etch doped layer 242. After etching, a portion of the cap layer 28 is located between the outer periphery of the recess 243, the drain 25 and the source 26. In the present embodiment, the channel of the channel layer 24 can be regarded as the width 1 of the groove 243. 2 ' Since the partial cover layer 28 is located between the drain 25 and the source 26 and is a mask etched by the channel layer 24, The present invention can obtain a shorter channel than the prior art. In general, conventional channels can reach 5 microns (μιη) due to the resolution of the exposure machine, while this embodiment can be less than 5 microns, for example up to 2 microns. As shown in Fig. 2G, the present embodiment may further include a formation-purification layer 27 to cover the drain layer 24, the portion of the source electrode 26, and the portion of the drain electrode 25.
