FIG. 1 shows a top-view of a display device according to an embodiment of the disclosure. The display device 100 includes a display region 104 and a driving element 106 disposed on a substrate 102. The display device 100 can be a liquid-crystal display (such as thin film transistor liquid-crystal display), or an organic electroluminescent display (such as active full-color organic electroluminescent display). The display region 104 has a plurality of pixels (not shown), and the driving element 106 is electrically connected to the display region 104 via a plurality of signal line pairs 110, in order to provide input to the pixels of the display region 110 so that the display device can display images. In particular, the display region 104 is separated from the driving element 106 by a fanout area 108, and a plurality of signal line pairs 110 are disposed on the fanout area 108. At least one of the signal line pairs 110 includes a first conductive line 112 and a second conductive line 114, wherein the first conductive line 112 and the second conductive line 114 are electrically isolated from each other. The first conductive line 112 and the second conductive line 114 transmit different signals. For example, each of the pixels disposed in the display region 104 can have at least three sub-pixels (such as red sub-pixel, blue sub-pixel, and green sub-pixel; or, red sub-pixel, blue sub-pixel, green sub-pixel, and white sub-pixel), and the various signals produced by the driving element 106 are transmitted to the sub-pixels via the first conductive lines 112 and second conductive lines 114. In addition, In the fanout area 108, at least a part of the first conductive line 112 overlaps with the second conductive line 114.
As still shown in FIG. 1, the fanout area 108 can be defined as a first circuit area 108a, a second circuit area 108b, and a third circuit area 108c, wherein the first circuit area 108a is adjacent to the display region 104, the third circuit area 108c is adjacent to the driving element 106, and the second circuit 108b area disposed between the first circuit area 108a and third circuit area 108c. 
According to an embodiment of the disclosure, in the first circuit area 108a, any of the first conductive line 112 and the adjacent second conductive line 114 are separated by a distance (minimum horizontal distance) Da. Namely, the first conductive block 112 and the second conductive block 114 adjacent to the first conductive block 112 are separated from each other. In the third circuit area 108c, any the first conductive line 112 and the adjacent second conductive line 114 are separated by a distance (minimum horizontal distance) Dc. In particular, the distance Da (the distance between the first conductive block 112 and the second conductive block 114 adjacent to the first conductive block 112) can be from 3 to 40 μm, the distance Dc can be from 3 μm to 18 μm, and the distance Da is longer than the distance Dc.
FIG. 2A shows a cross-sectional view of FIG. 1 along line A-A′. As shown in FIG. 2A, in the second circuit area 108b, the first conductive line 112 and the second conductive line 114 of the same signal line pair 110 can partially overlap each other. As a result, the horizontal projection area of the first conductive line 112 and the second conductive line 114 can be reduced, and the integration degree of the fanout area 108 can be increased.
As shown in FIG. 2A, the first conductive line 112 can be disposed on the substrate 102. A dielectric layer 116 can be disposed on the substrate 102 to cover the first conductive line 112. The second conductive line 114 can be disposed on the dielectric layer 116, and the first conductive line 112 can overlap with the second conductive line 114. A passivation layer 118 can be disposed on the dielectric layer 116 to cover the second conductive line 114. In particular, the substrate 102 can be quartz, glass, silicon, metal, plastic, or ceramic. Suitable materials for the first conductive lines 112 and the second conductive lines 114 include a single-layer or multilayer metal conductive material (such as aluminum (Al), copper (Cu), molybdenum (Mo), titanium (Ti), platinum (Pt), iridium (Ir), nickel (Ni), chromium (Cr), silver (Ag), gold (Au), tungsten (W), or an alloy thereof), metal-containing conductive material (such as: aluminum-containing compound, copper-containing compound, molybdenum-containing compound, titanium-containing compound, platinum-containing compound, iridium-containing compound, nickel-containing compound, chromium-containing compound, silver-containing compound, gold-containing compound, tungsten-containing compound, magnesium-containing compound, or a combination thereof), or a combination thereof. Furthermore, the first conductive line 112 and the second conductive line 114 can be made of the same or different material. The dielectric layer 116 can be silicon nitride, silicon oxide, silicon oxynitride, silicon carbide, aluminum oxide, or a combination thereof. The passivation layer 118 can be made of organic insulating materials (such as photosensitive resins) or inorganic insulating materials (such as silicon nitride, silicon oxide, silicon oxynitride, silicon carbide, aluminum oxide, or a combination thereof), in order to isolate the first conductive line 112 and the second conductive line 114 from air and moisture. In addition, according to an embodiment of the disclosure, the first conductive line 112 and the second conductive line 114 have tapered sidewalls, as shown in FIG. 2A. In particular, the tapered sidewall of the first conductive line 112 or the second conductive line 114 has an inclination angle of 15 to 90° from horizontal. Further, the inclination angle of the first conductive line 112 can be equal to or different from that of the second conductive line 114.
According to an embodiment of the disclosure, the width W1 of the first conductive line 112 can be from 2 to 10 μm, the width W2 of the second conductive line 114 can be from 2 to 10 μm, and the width W1 can be equal to the width W2 (as shown in FIG. 2A). Further, the width W1 of the first conductive line 112 can be different from the width W2 of the second conductive line 114 (as shown in FIG. 2B). Namely, the ratio of the width W1 of the first conductive line 112 to the width W2 of the second conductive line 114 is from 1 to 5. For example, as shown in FIG. 2B, the width W1 of the first conductive line 112 can be larger than the width W2 of the second conductive line 114. In addition, as shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B, the second conductive line 114 can completely overlap with the first conductive line 112 (i.e., the horizontal projection of the second conductive line 114 can completely overlap the horizontal projection of the first conductive line 112).
According to an embodiment of the disclosure, in the second circuit area 108b, any two adjacent first conductive lines 112 are separated by a distance D1 (i.e., the minimum horizontal distance between the two adjacent first conductive lines 112 in the second circuit area 108b). Further, in the second circuit area 108b, any two adjacent second conductive lines 114 are separated by a distance D2 (i.e., the minimum horizontal distance between the two adjacent second conductive lines 114 in the second circuit area 108b). In particular, the distance D1 can be from 2 to 30 μm, and the distance D2 can be from 2 to 30 μm.
According to an embodiment of the disclosure, in the second circuit area 108b, the sum (W1+D1) of the width W1 of the first conductive line 112 and the distance D1 can be equal to the sum (W2+D2) of the width W2 of the second conductive line 114 and the distance D2. In addition, the ratio (D1/(W1+D1)) of the distance D1 and the sum of the distance D1 and the width W1 can be from 0.1 to 0.66. When the ratio (D1/(W1+D1)) is greater than or equal to 0.1, a sealant (not shown) subsequently formed within the second circuit area 108b is apt to be completely cured after a curing process (irradiating an energy from the substrate 102 side). On the other hand, when the ratio (D1/(W1+D1)) is less than or equal to 0.66, the integration degree of conductive lines of the second circuit area 108b can be increased.
According to embodiments of the disclosure, the overlapping portion of the first conductive line 112 and the second conductive line 114 (i.e., the overlapping portion of the horizontal projection of the first conductive line 112 and the horizontal projection of the second conductive line 114) has a width W3 (i.e., the minimum horizontal width). Further, the ratio (W3/W1) of the width W3 and the width W1 of the first conductive line 112 is from 0.3 to 1.
With respect to the signal line pair 110 in the second circuit area 108b, at least a part of the first conductive line 112 can overlap with the second conductive line 114 (i.e., at least a part of the horizontal projection of the first conductive line 112 can overlap the horizontal projection of the second conductive line 114), as shown in FIG. 2C. Herein, the relationship between the width W1 of the first conductive line 112, the width W2 of the second conductive line 114, and the width W3 can be defined by the following equation:

(W1+W2−W3)/W1≧1

FIG. 3 is a top-view of a display device 100 according to an embodiment of the disclosure. Besides the display region 104, the driving element 106, and the fanout area 108, the display device 100 further includes a first conductive loop 117 disposed outside the display region 104. As shown in FIG. 3, the first conductive loop 117 can be disposed on the substrate 102 and surround the display region 104. Further, the first conductive loop 117 can be electrically connected to the driving element 106, and the driving element 106 can provide a voltage signal to the first conductive loop 117 in order to force the first conductive loop 117 to generate a reference voltage. Since the first conductive loop 117 would overlap with the signal line pairs 110 in the fanout area 108, another conducting layer can be used as a substitute for the first conductive loop 117 or the signal line pairs 110 in order to avoid contact between the first conductive loop 117 and the signal line pairs 110.
According to an embodiment of the disclosure, at least a part of the first conductive loop 117 includes a plurality of first conductive blocks 202 and a plurality of second conductive blocks 204. The first conductive blocks 202 and the second conductive blocks 204 are electrically connected to each other. FIG. 4A shows a cross-sectional view of the display device 100 of FIG. 3 along line B-B′. According to an embodiment of the disclosure, the part of the first conductive loop 117 including the plurality of first conductive blocks 202 and the plurality of second conductive blocks 204 can be disposed on the two opposite sides of the display region 104, and the part of the first conductive loop 117 can be perpendicular to a first axis X (i.e. parallel to a second axis Y). In an embodiment of the disclosure, since there are a plurality of data lines (not shown) disposed on the two opposite sides of the display region 104 corresponding to the first axis X (i.e. the plurality of data lines perpendicular to the first axis X), the part of the first conductive loop 117 including the plurality of first conductive blocks 202 and the plurality of second conductive blocks 204 is not apt to be disposed parallel to the first axis X. In some embodiments of the disclosure, the part of the first conductive loop 117 including the plurality of first conductive block 202 and the plurality of second conductive block 204 can be also disposed on the two opposite sides of the display region 104 and parallel to a first axis X.
As shown in FIG. 4A, the plurality of first conductive blocks 202 can be disposed on the substrate 102. A dielectric layer 206 can be disposed on the substrate 102 to cover the first conductive blocks 202. The plurality of second conductive blocks 204 can be disposed on the dielectric layer 206. A passivation layer 208 can be disposed on the dielectric layer 206 to cover the second conductive blocks 204. In addition, a plurality of first via holes 205 pass through the dielectric layer 206 and the passivation layer 208, exposing the first conductive block 202. A plurality of second via holes 207 pass through the passivation layer 208, exposing the second conductive block 204. A conducting layer 210 can be disposed on the passivation layer 208 to fill into the first via hole 205 and the second via hole 207, resulting in the plurality of first conductive blocks 202 and the plurality of second conductive blocks 204 being electrically connected to each other via the conducting layer 210.
According to an embodiment of the disclosure, the first conductive block 202 and the second conductive block 204 can be a made of single-layer or multilayer metal conductive material (such as aluminum (Al), copper (Cu), molybdenum (Mo), titanium (Ti), platinum (Pt), iridium (Ir), nickel (Ni), chromium (Cr), silver (Ag), gold (Au), tungsten (W), or an alloy thereof), metal-containing conductive material (such as: aluminum-containing compound, copper-containing compound, molybdenum-containing compound, titanium-containing compound, platinum-containing compound, iridium-containing compound, nickel-containing compound, chromium-containing compound, silver-containing compound, gold-containing compound, tungsten-containing compound, magnesium-containing compound, or a combination thereof), or a combination thereof. Further, the materials of first conductive blocks 202 and second conductive blocks 204 can be the same or different. According to an embodiment of the disclosure, the first conductive blocks 202 and the first conductive line 112 can be formed in the same process and made of the same material; and/or, the second conductive blocks 204 and the second conductive line 114 can be formed in the same process and made of the same material. The dielectric layer 206 can be silicon nitride, silicon oxide, silicon oxynitride, silicon carbide, aluminum oxide, or a combination thereof. Further, the dielectric layer 206 and the dielectric layer 116 can be formed in the same process and made of the same material. The passivation layer 208 can be organic insulating materials (such as photosensitive resins) or inorganic insulating materials (such as silicon nitride, silicon oxide, silicon oxynitride, silicon carbide, aluminum oxide, or a combination thereof). The passivation layer 208 and the passivation layer 118 can be formed in the same process and made of the same material. In addition, the conducting layer 210 can be a single-layer or multilayer transparent conducting layer, and the material of the conducting layer 210 can be ITO (indium tin oxide), IZO (indium zinc oxide), AZO (aluminum zinc oxide), ZnO (zinc oxide), tin oxide, indium oxide, or a combination thereof.
As still shown in FIG. 4A, in order to prevent the display device 100 from damage caused by electrostatic discharge during the fabrication of the display device, the first conductive block 202 can have a length L1 between 10 and 10000 μm, and the second conductive block 204 can have a length L2 between 10 and 10000 μm. In addition, any two adjacent first conductive blocks 202 are separated by a distance D3, any two adjacent second conductive blocks 204 are separated by a distance D4, and any two adjacent first and second conductive blocks 202 and 204 are separated by a distance D5. In particular, the distance D3 is from 16 to 100 μm, the distance D4 is from 16 to 100 μm, and the distance D5 is from 3 to 40 μm.
According to another embodiment of the disclosure, any two adjacent first conductive blocks 202 can be electrically connected to each other via the second conductive block 204 adjacent to the two adjacent first conductive blocks 202. As shown in FIG. 4B, the plurality of first conductive blocks 202 can be disposed on the substrate 102. The dielectric layer 206 can be disposed on the substrate 102 to cover the first conductive block 202. A plurality of third via holes 209 pass through the dielectric layer 206 exposing the first conductive block 202. The plurality of second conductive blocks 204 can be disposed on the dielectric layer 206 to fill into the third via hole 209, forcing the second conductive block 204 to overlap with the two first conductive block 202 adjacent to the second conductive block 204. Therefore, the first conductive blocks 202 and the second conductive blocks 204 can be electrically connected to each other in the absence of the conducting layer 210.
According to other embodiments of the disclosure, as shown in FIG. 4C, a planarization layer 212 can be further formed on the passivation layer 208. A plurality of fourth via holes 211 pass through the dielectric layer 206, the passivation layer 208, and the planarization layer 212, exposing the first conductive blocks 202. A plurality of fifth via holes 213 pass through the passivation layer 208 and the planarization layer 212, exposing the second conductive blocks 204. The conducting layer 210 can be formed on the planarization layer 212 to be filled into the fourth via hole 211 and the fifth via hole 213, resulting in the first conductive blocks 202 and the second conductive blocks 204 being electrically connected to each other via the conducting layer 210. In particular, the planarization layer 212 can be a layer with insulating properties, such as a dielectric material, or photosensitive resin.
FIG. 5 shows a top view of the display device 100 according to an embodiment of the disclosure. In addition to the display region 104, the driving element 106, the fanout area 108, and the first conductive loop 117, the display device 100 can further include a second conductive loop 119. The second conductive loop 119 can be disposed on substrate 102 outside the display region 104 and the first conductive loop 117. As shown in FIG. 5, the second conductive loop 119 can be disposed on the substrate 102 to surround the display region 104 and connect to the driving element 106. The second conductive loop 119 can serve as an electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection element, preventing the pixels within the display region 104 from damage caused by electrostatic discharge. In addition, a sealant 120 can be disposed on the substrate 102 to cover a part of the second conductive loop 119. In particular, a region defined by projecting the sealant 120 to the substrate 102 serves as a package region (not shown). The second conductive loop 119 within the package region is completely covered by the sealant 120.
The second conductive loop 119 can be single-layer or multilayer metal conductive material (such as aluminum (Al), copper (Cu), molybdenum (Mo), titanium (Ti), platinum (Pt), iridium (Ir), nickel (Ni), chromium (Cr), silver (Ag), gold (Au), tungsten (W), or an alloy thereof), metal-containing conductive material (such as aluminum-containing compound, copper-containing compound, molybdenum-containing compound, titanium-containing compound, platinum-containing compound, iridium-containing compound, nickel-containing compound, chromium-containing compound, silver-containing compound, gold-containing compound, tungsten-containing compound, magnesium-containing compound, or a combination thereof), or a combination thereof. According to an embodiment of the disclosure, the second conductive loop 119 can be formed simultaneously during the process for forming the first conductive blocks 202 and the second conductive blocks 204. In addition, the sealant can be a resin.
As shown in FIG. 5, the display device 100 has a peripheral boundary 122. In the package region, there is no distance between the sealant 120 and the peripheral boundary 122 (the horizontal distance between the sealant 120 and the peripheral boundary 122 is 0). FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view of the display device 100 as shown in FIG. 5 along line C-C′. As shown in FIG. 6, the second conductive loop 119 and the peripheral boundary 122 are separated by a distance D6, and the sealant 120 is disposed on the second conductive loop 119 within the peripheral boundary 122. Namely, the space between the second conductive loop 119 and the peripheral boundary 122 is filled with the sealant 120. It should be noted that the distance D6 is from 50 to 300 μm in order to prevent the second conductive loop 119 from erosion and corrosion by moisture and air and achieve the electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection ability of the second conductive loop 119.
In order to ensure that the second conductive loop 119 is not be uncovered by the sealant 120 due to a processing error, a so-called “cutting-on-sealant process” is employed during the processes for fabricating the display device of the disclosure. FIG. 7 shows a schematic top view of a display device mother substrate 201 according to an embodiment of the disclosure. The display device as shown in FIG. 5 can be obtained after cutting the display device mother substrate 201 via a cutting process. As shown in FIG. 7, when forming the sealant 120 on the substrate 102, the sealant 120 is formed to cover the predetermined cutting line 124. Therefore, after performing the cutting process (using for example, a single-tool cutting process, a multi-tool cutting process, or a laser cutting process) along the predetermined cutting line 124, there is no distance between the peripheral boundary 122 and the sealant 120 of the obtained display device 100 (such as the display device 100 as shown in FIG. 5). Further, the second conductive loop 119 is separated from the peripheral boundary 122 by the distance D6. As shown in FIG. 7, the sealant 120 can be formed to contact the peripheral boundary 122.
In addition, according to an embodiment of the disclosure, when forming the sealant 120 on the substrate 102, the sealant 120 can cover the predetermined cutting line 124 and not contact the peripheral boundary 122, as shown in FIG. 8. After performing the cutting process along the predetermined cutting line 124, the display device 100 as shown in FIG. 5 can be still obtained.
Accordingly, the area occupied by the fanout area of the display device of the disclosure can be lowered resulting from increasing the conductive line integration degree in the fanout area. Therefore, the display device can have a larger display region under the premise that the size of the display device is fixed. In addition, the display device of the disclosure can further include a first conductive loop outside the display region, wherein the first conductive loop includes a plurality of conductive blocks. Therefore, the first conductive loop can prevent the display device from damage caused by electrostatic discharge during the fabrication of the display device. Moreover, the display device of the disclosure can further include a second conductive loop outside the display region, wherein a sealant is disposed on the second conductive loop and within the peripheral boundary of the display device, in order to achieve high electrostatic discharge ability of the second conductive loop.
