Development of DIABLA Blackening Film Sputtering Target for Organic EL and Liquid Crystal TFT Wiring, and Start of its Mass Production
This is to announce that the Electronic Materials & Components Division in the Advanced Products Company of Mitsubishi Materials Corporation has developed the DIABLA blackening film sputtering target for display TFT wiring, and will start its mass production. In addition, the DIABLA series will also be launched as a new product brand.
Sputtering targets are electronic materials used to form thin films by depositing substances such as alloys and metal oxides on electronic substrates at an atomic level. Among them, sputtering targets for blackening film are used to blacken wiring by depositing a film on the TFT wiring of organic EL or liquid crystal panels, lowering the visible light reflectivity of the wiring (reduced reflection). Our newly developed product DIABLA has the benefits and effects indicated below. As compared to conventional products, it can contribute to achieving higher definition for various types of displays, more freedom of design, and reductions in noise caused by reflected light from the wiring of semiconductor-related products and other sources.
[Benefits and effects of DIABLA]
1) Reflection of visible light can be lowered after the deposition of films on wiring.
Reduced reflection can be achieved compared to conventional products.
2) DC sputtering is possible without reactive gas.
This can contribute to greater uniformity of films on large substrates than conventional products.
3) After the film deposition, etching can be performed at once with wiring.
By adjusting the material in accordance with a customer's existing etching process, it is possible to perform etching at once with wiring to the existing process. Our company will also assist customers in order to match their sputtering conditions.
4) High resistance to heat, as well as to water and alkali.
In addition to its resistance to water and alkali, it also has high heat resistance, so there will be no changes to film properties during the TFT wiring process.
