Etchant and method for fabricating a thin film transistor substrate including conductive wires using the etchant and the resulting structure
View Patent ↗Provided are an etchant, a method for fabricating a wire using the etchant, and a method for fabricating a thin film transistor (TFT) substrate using the etchant. The etchant includes a material having the formula 1, ammonium acetic acid, and the remainder of deionized water, wherein the formula 1 is expressed by: M(OH) X L Y (1) where M indicates Zn, Sn, Cr, Al, Ba, Fe, Ti, Si, or B, X indicates 2 or 3, L indicates H 2 O, NH 3 , CN, COR, or NH 2 R, Y indicates 0, 1, 2, or 3, and R indicates an alkyl group.
1. An etchant comprising a material having the formula 1, ammonium acetic acid, and the remainder of deionized water, wherein the formula 1 is expressed by:
M(OH) X L Y (1)
where M indicates Zn, Sn, Cr, Al, Ba, Fe, Ti, Si, or B, X indicates 2 or 3, L indicates H 2 O, NH 3 , CN, COR, or NH 2 R, Y indicates 0, 1, 2, or 3, and R indicates an alkyl group.
2. The etchant of claim 1 , wherein an amount of the material is in a range of 0.1-5 wt % and ammonium acetic acid is in a range 0.001-0.1 wt %.
3. The etchant of claim 1 or 2 , further comprising phosphoric acid in a range of 60-70 wt %, nitric acid in a range of 0.5-5 wt %, and acetic acid in a range of 2-10 wt %.
