Micro light emitting diodes (micro LEDs, μ LEDs) are a new generation of display technology, and have higher brightness, higher light emitting efficiency, longer lifetime, and lower power consumption than existing Organic Light Emitting Diodes (OLEDs). The micro light emitting diode has the characteristics of self luminescence and no need of a backlight source, and each pixel can be addressed and independently driven to light.
The manufacturing process of the micro light emitting diode display generally includes thinning, miniaturizing and arraying a diode (LED) structure to make the size of the diode be about 10 micrometers, transferring a large number (tens of thousands to tens of thousands) of micro light emitting diode chips onto a display circuit substrate to form an LED array, and finally packaging. The key difficulty of this process is how to Transfer a large number of micro-led chips with a small scale onto a display circuit substrate, and Mass Transfer (Mass Transfer) technology is also developed. The mass transfer technology requires that micro-led chips with micron size are selectively transferred from a native substrate to a circuit substrate in batch, and because the micro-leds have very small size and the mass transfer technology requires very high yield (99.9999%), efficiency and transfer accuracy, the mass transfer technology also becomes the most challenging issue in the development process of micro-leds, and hinders the development of micro-leds.
In addition to batch transfer of micro leds onto a circuit substrate during mass transfer, selective transfer is also required to achieve the purpose of patterned transfer. At present, there are several techniques for selective transfer: 1) variable-pitch transfer is realized by film stretching and patterned laser, in the method, chips are temporarily adhered on a stretching layer of a high-molecular transparent film, then the transparent film is stretched to realize the adjustment of the chip pitch, and finally the chips are released by the patterned laser, so that the method has the problems of uneven stretching time pitch and the like, and the patterned laser has higher cost; 2) the selective transfer is realized by the transfer seal, the chip is selectively picked up by using the transfer seal with the microstructure in a patterning way, and then the chip is released to the circuit substrate, and the method has the problems of troublesome seal manufacturing, inaccurate positioning and the like.

Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, the present invention is described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not intended to limit the invention. In addition, the technical features involved in the embodiments of the present invention described below may be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
As shown in fig. 1-2, a huge transfer device of micro light emitting diode (micro led) based on selective heating demagnetization provided by the embodiment of the present invention includes a substrate 11 and a magnetic square array 12 disposed on the upper surface of the substrate 11, each magnetic square in the magnetic square array 12 has magnetism, and the upper and lower surfaces (i.e. upper and lower ends) of each magnetic square are unlike magnetic poles, i.e. the upper surface of the magnetic square is S pole, the lower surface is N pole, or the upper surface is N pole, the lower surface is S pole, the magnetic poles of each magnetic square are arranged consistently, each magnetic square can reach its curie temperature by external heating to reduce its magnetism until it disappears, during the transfer operation, the magnetic square array 12 corresponds to the magnetic micro led array to be transferred one-to-one, the magnetic square array 12 first picks up the micro led array as a whole, then selectively heating the magnetic block (i.e. selecting the magnetic block corresponding to the micro light-emitting diode to be transferred) to make it lose magnetism, so as to selectively transfer the micro light-emitting diode onto the magnetic target circuit substrate, thereby implementing the bulk transfer of the micro light-emitting diode based on selective heating demagnetization.
Specifically, the magnetic square array 12 may be formed by evaporating or sputtering a layer of magnetic material on the substrate 11, then forming the magnetic square array into an array by means of laser cutting or reactive ion etching, and finally magnetizing the magnetic square array in a magnetic field. Each magnetic square block obtained by the method has certain magnetism so as to effectively adsorb the micro light-emitting diode to be transferred. The upper surface and the lower surface of the magnetic square block are the synonym magnetic poles, so that the magnetic field around the magnetic square block is mainly concentrated on two sides of the synonym magnetic poles, namely the magnetic field intensity of the upper side and the lower side of the magnetic square block is stronger, and the magnetic field intensity of the periphery of the magnetic square block is weaker, so that the influence on the adjacent micro light-emitting diodes is avoided, and the magnetism of the magnetic square block can be quickly reduced until the magnetic square block disappears after the Curie temperature of the magnetic square block is reached through external heating. By the above characteristics of the magnetic block 12, the overall pickup can be realized, then the micro light emitting diode can be released selectively, and finally the micro light emitting diode can be patterned and transferred onto the target circuit substrate selectively.
The invention also provides a micro light-emitting diode bulk transfer method based on selective heating demagnetization, which comprises the following steps:
s1 transferring the micro LED array to be transferred from the substrate 20 to the intermediate transparent carrier substrate 40 prepared with the glue layer 41, so that the electrodes of the micro LEDs are bonded with the glue layer 41;
s2 implements a global pick (as shown in fig. 4):
pressing the transfer device 10 of the invention on the micro light-emitting diode array transferred to the middle transparent carrier substrate 40, and enabling the magnetic square array 12 of the device to correspond to the micro light-emitting diode array on the middle transparent carrier substrate one by one, then irradiating the adhesive layer 41 on the middle transparent carrier substrate 40 by using ultraviolet light to reduce the viscosity of the adhesive layer, and capturing each micro light-emitting diode in the micro light-emitting diode array by the corresponding magnetic square under the action of magnetic force, thereby realizing the integral pickup of the micro light-emitting diode;
s3 achieving selective release (as shown in fig. 5):
pressing the device with the picked micro light-emitting diodes on a magnetic target circuit substrate 60, and enabling the micro light-emitting diode arrays on the device to correspond to the electrode arrays on the target circuit substrate one by one, so that the micro light-emitting diode electrodes are in good contact with the circuit substrate electrodes; the target circuit substrate electrode is then selectively energized, with the energized target circuit substrate electrode being able to illuminate the micro light emitting diode thereon, and the non-energized target circuit substrate electrode being unable to illuminate the micro light emitting diode thereon. Specifically, the target circuit substrate electrode has a certain magnetism, the intensity of which is much smaller than that of the magnetic square block on the transfer device, and the target circuit substrate electrode is selectively electrified to light the corresponding micro light-emitting diode. The micro light-emitting diode can generate a heat effect when being lightened, the heat power of the micro light-emitting diode can be controlled by controlling the magnitude of the input current, the lightened micro light-emitting diode can heat the corresponding magnetic square block, and the magnetism of the magnetic square block can be rapidly reduced until the magnetism disappears after the Curie temperature of the magnetic square block is reached. And because of different magnetic square materials, the Curie point of the target circuit substrate electrode and the electrode of the micro light-emitting diode is higher, and the magnetic action between the target circuit substrate electrode and the electrode of the micro light-emitting diode is not influenced. Under the guidance of the magnetic force of the target circuit substrate electrode, the micro light-emitting diode is captured by the electrode of the target circuit substrate, so that the selective release of the micro light-emitting diode is realized, and finally, the selective transfer of the micro light-emitting diode from the substrate to the target circuit substrate is realized.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 3, step S1 includes the following sub-steps:
s11, preparing a magnetic micro led array on a substrate 20 (e.g., a sapphire substrate), where the electrodes of the micro leds 30 have certain magnetism so as to be picked up or released by a magnetic block, and how to make the electrodes of the micro leds have magnetism, which can be realized by the conventional method, such as doping some magnetic materials or plating a layer of magnetic materials on the electrodes when making the electrodes of the micro leds, or making the electrodes of the micro leds by magnetic materials so as to have magnetism, which is not described herein in detail for the prior art, and finally forming an arrayed and tightly arranged micro led array, where the size of each micro led 30 is about 10 μm to 20 μm;
s12, pressing the micro light-emitting diode array on the adhesive layer 41 of the middle transparent carrier substrate 40 to bond the electrodes of the micro light-emitting diodes with the adhesive layer 41;
s13 irradiating the interface of the micro light emitting diode 30 and the substrate 20 with the ultraviolet laser 50 through the substrate 20, so that the adhesion strength of the interface of the micro light emitting diode 30 and the substrate 20 is significantly reduced to separate the micro light emitting diode 30 from the substrate 20, thereby transferring the micro light emitting diode 30 onto the intermediate transparent carrier substrate 40 as a whole.
Specifically, the electrodes of the target circuit substrate have magnetism, so as to accurately position the micro light emitting diode, and how to make the electrodes of the target circuit substrate have magnetism can be implemented by using the conventional method, for example, some magnetic materials can be doped when the electrodes of the target circuit substrate are manufactured, or a layer of magnetic materials is plated on the electrodes of the target circuit substrate, or the electrodes are made of magnetic materials so as to have magnetism, and the like, which is not described herein in detail for the prior art.
Further, in step S2, since the intermediate transparent carrier substrate performs a temporary transition function, the interfacial adhesion between the micro-led electrodes and the glue layer 41 can be reduced until disappeared, so as to release the micro-led array, wherein the method includes modifying the glue layer by ultraviolet irradiation to reduce the viscosity thereof, and the like. Specifically, the ultraviolet light 51 is irradiated on the adhesive layer 41 through the intermediate transparent carrier substrate 40 for a certain time on the non-adhesive side of the intermediate transparent carrier substrate 40, so that the adhesiveness of the adhesive layer 41 for bonding the micro light emitting diode 30 is significantly reduced. The residual viscosity of the adhesive layer can be controlled by ultraviolet irradiation light intensity and time, the transferred chip can be prevented from being polluted, and the specific irradiation light intensity and time can be determined according to actual needs. Specifically, the adhesive layer 41 may be a UV photoresist or a light-induced photoresist, which is widely used in the field of transferring micro devices and is not described herein. Under the action of the magnetic force between the magnetic block 12 of the transfer device and the micro-leds electrodes, the micro-leds 30 are captured by the corresponding magnetic block 12, thereby achieving the overall pick-up of the micro-leds 30 onto the transfer device 10.
In a preferred embodiment, in step S3, the electrodes of the target circuit substrate are selectively controlled by an external control command to energize the corresponding micro light emitting diodes 32 to be transferred, the micro light emitting diodes to be transferred generate a thermal effect when being illuminated, the illuminated micro light emitting diodes 32 to be transferred heat the corresponding magnetic squares thereon, and the magnetism of the magnetic squares is rapidly reduced until the magnetic squares disappear after the curie temperature of the magnetic squares is reached, which is an irreversible process, that is, the magnetic squares which have been heated and demagnetized still have no magnetism after the temperature of the magnetic squares is returned to room temperature. Under the action of the magnetic force of the target circuit substrate electrode, the micro light-emitting diode 32 to be transferred is captured by the target circuit substrate electrode, so that the transfer of the micro light-emitting diode is realized. The micro light emitting diode 33 which does not need to be transferred (i.e. the micro light emitting diode which is not lighted) is still adsorbed on the corresponding magnetic square block and does not transfer, thereby realizing the patterned and selective transfer of the micro light emitting diode to the target circuit substrate 60, wherein the patterning is obtained by selectively lighting the micro light emitting diode through the transfer method, and heating and demagnetizing the corresponding magnetic square block by utilizing the heat effect when the micro light emitting diode emits light, thereby realizing the selective release. The micro light emitting diodes which are not transferred at this time can wait for the next transfer, and after all the micro light emitting diode arrays on the transfer device 10 are transferred, the transfer device 10 can be placed into the magnetic field again for magnetization, and a new transfer is started.
FIG. 6 is a schematic diagram of a magnetic block being heated to remove its magnetic properties by selectively lighting micro LEDs, the general process is as follows: the transfer device 10 with the absorbed micro light-emitting diode array is pressed onto the target circuit substrate 60, so that the micro light-emitting diode array corresponds to the target circuit substrate electrode 61, and specifically, the micro light-emitting diode electrode 31 and the target circuit substrate electrode 61 are in good contact and can be normally conducted. A lead 62 is connected to each target circuit substrate electrode 61, and the target circuit substrate electrode 61 is selectively energized through each lead 62 to light the corresponding micro led 32 to be transferred. Theoretical calculations indicate that when the light irradiance of the micro led pixel increases from 1 mw/sq mm to 20 mw/sq mm at room temperature, the internal maximum temperature increases from 100 ℃ to about 150 ℃. The thermal power of the micro light-emitting diode can be controlled by controlling the magnitude of the current input by the electrode lead, the photovoltaic illumination of the micro light-emitting diode and the temperature of the working environment of the micro light-emitting diode, and further the surface temperature of the micro light-emitting diode is controlled. The lighted micro light emitting diode 32 to be transferred can heat the magnetic square block above the light emitting diode, the magnetism of the heated magnetic square block 13 is rapidly reduced until the heated magnetic square block disappears after reaching the Curie temperature of the heated magnetic square block, and the magnetic square block still has no magnetism after being recovered to the normal temperature. A feasible magnetic square material for the step is a soft magnetic ferrite material which is prepared by mixing and sintering powders of iron oxide, manganese oxide, zinc oxide and the like, has a mature preparation process, is commonly used for a temperature sensing magnet part of a temperature sensor in an electric cooker, has the Curie temperature of about 103 +/-2 degrees, and can be adjusted and controlled to a larger extent by changing the proportion of the components and doping other materials. The micro light-emitting diode electrode 31 and the target circuit substrate electrode 61 are made of materials with Curie temperature higher than that of the magnetic square block, so that the heat effect of the micro light-emitting diode only reaches the Curie temperature of the magnetic square block but not reaches the Curie temperature of the micro light-emitting diode electrode 31 and the target circuit substrate electrode 61, and the magnetic action between the micro light-emitting diode electrode 31 and the target circuit substrate electrode 61 is not influenced. The electrode can be made of various materials, such as Al-Ni-Co permanent magnetic alloy with Curie temperature of about 860 ℃, Fe-Cr-Co permanent magnetic alloy with Curie temperature of about 680 ℃, which is far higher than that of the magnetic square. The micro light emitting diode 32 to be transferred is captured by the target circuit substrate electrode by the magnetic force of the target circuit substrate electrode 61, thereby realizing the transfer of the micro light emitting diode. The unlighted micro light-emitting diodes are still adsorbed on the corresponding unheated magnetic blocks 14 and are not transferred, so that the micro light-emitting diodes are selectively transferred to the target circuit substrate in a patterning mode.
Fig. 7 is a schematic diagram of a control unit of a driving circuit of a target circuit substrate, in which the driving circuit system mainly selectively energizes electrodes on the target circuit substrate to selectively light the micro light emitting diodes, so as to finally achieve the purpose of selective and patterned transfer. The drive circuit control unit is a conventional control system in the field, and mainly comprises an upper computer 63, a lower computer 64 which is communicated with the upper computer 63, and a row drive 65 and a column drive 66 which are respectively connected with the lower computer 64 and a target circuit substrate electrode, wherein the upper computer 63 can adopt a common PC (personal computer) and is mainly responsible for editing display data and transmitting the display data to the lower computer 64, the rows of electrodes of the target circuit substrate 60 are then sequentially gated under the control of the lower computer 64 (i.e. the electrodes of the corresponding row of the target circuit substrate 60 are brought into communication by the row drive 65), the data for each row and column is also prepared before each row is strobed, and once the row is strobed, the electrodes on that row are selectively energized according to the column data, that is, the column driver 66 is used to make the electrodes of the corresponding column of the target circuit substrate 60 communicate, so as to selectively energize the corresponding electrodes on the target circuit substrate 60.
The transfer device and the method provided by the invention selectively light the micro light-emitting diode by utilizing the mature drive circuit control technology, so as to utilize the heat effect when the micro light-emitting diode emits light to rapidly heat the corresponding magnetic block to ensure that the temperature of the magnetic block reaches the Curie temperature, thus the magnetism of the magnetic block can be rapidly reduced until the magnetic block disappears, and the individually controllable patterning and selective mass transfer of the micro light-emitting diode can be realized.
It will be understood by those skilled in the art that the foregoing is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and is not intended to limit the invention, and that any modification, equivalent replacement, or improvement made within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included in the scope of the present invention.
