[0032] The present application provides a transfer device and a transfer method. The following will be described in detail. It should be noted that the description order of the following embodiments is not limited as the preferred order of the embodiments.

[0033] Reference Figure 1The present application provides a transfer device 100 for transferring a plurality of light emitting devices 30 on a carrier substrate 40 to a target substrate 50, the transfer device 100 comprising: a spraying assembly 10, the spraying assembly 10 being provided with a first medium 101 in a liquid state, the spraying assembly 10 being used for spraying the first medium 101 in a liquid state on the light emitting devices 30 located on the carrier substrate 40, the first medium 101 comprising a liquid state, a solid state and a gaseous state; a transfer assembly 20 comprising an adsorption surface 201 and a refrigeration component, the refrigeration component being used for lowering the temperature of the adsorption surface 201 to below the freezing point of the first medium 101, so as to convert the first medium 101 in a liquid state on the light emitting devices 30 to be transferred into a solid state and connect with the adsorption surface 201 of the transfer assembly 20; a heating assembly (not shown in the figure) being used for heating the first medium 101 in a solid state and converting it into a gaseous state after the transfer assembly 20 connected with the light emitting devices 30 is closed with the target substrate 50, so as to separate the transfer assembly 20 from the light emitting devices 30.

[0034] It can be understood that at present, the light emitting devices are usually transferred by adhesion through using viscous materials, such a viscous transfer method needs to use a large amount of glue materials, which increases the production cost, and after completing the mass transfer, the adhesion materials are easily left on the surface of the light emitting devices, the left adhesion materials are difficult to remove and affect the use of the light emitting devices, which leads to poor transfer effect of the light emitting devices. In the present application, the transfer device 100 uses the first medium 101 in a liquid state to convert into the first medium 101 in a solid state to connect the transfer assembly 20 and the light emitting devices 30, and the first medium 101 in a solid state converts into the first medium 101 in a gaseous state to separate the transfer assembly 20 and the light emitting devices 30, so as to complete the transfer of the light emitting devices 30, which avoids the use of viscous materials in the transfer process, reduces the production cost, solves the problem of adhesion material left in the existing transfer technology, does not affect the use of the light emitting devices, and realizes better transfer effect.

[0035] It should be noted that when the adhesive material is used to transfer the light emitting device, the adhesion between the adhesive material and the light emitting device is difficult to control, and meanwhile, the alignment of the adhesive material is difficult during the transfer process, which reduces the transfer efficiency and leads to poor transfer effect. In the embodiment of the present application, the spraying assembly 10 uniformly sprays the liquid first medium 101 on the light emitting device 30, and the adsorption surface 201 contacts the liquid first medium 101 to change the liquid first medium 101 into the solid first medium 101. The solid first medium 101 connects the transfer assembly 20 and the light emitting device 30, the adhesion between the transfer assembly 20 and the light emitting device 30 is uniform and stable, and the transfer assembly 20 does not need to be aligned with the light emitting device 30. Any area on one side of the adsorption surface 201 can contact the liquid first medium 101 on the light emitting device 30 to change the liquid first medium 101 into the solid first medium 101, connect the transfer assembly 20 and the light emitting device 30, and transfer the light emitting device 30, which further improves the transfer efficiency and achieves better transfer effect.

[0036] In the embodiment of the present application, the light emitting device 30 can be a Micro LED, and the target substrate 50 is provided with an area for placing the light emitting device 30. The positional relationship between the carrier substrate 40 and the target substrate 50 is not limited.

[0037] In some embodiments, the refrigeration component includes a sheet-shaped semiconductor refrigeration sheet (not shown in the figure), and the adsorption surface 201 is located on the heat absorption surface of the semiconductor refrigeration sheet.

[0038] It can be understood that the working principle of the semiconductor cooling sheet is to utilize the Peltier effect. When a direct current passes through an electric couple composed of two different semiconductor materials, heat can be absorbed and released at the two ends of the electric couple, respectively, so that the purpose of refrigeration can be achieved. Specifically, the refrigeration component includes the semiconductor cooling sheet, which is composed of two different semiconductor materials, such as an N-type semiconductor material and a P-type semiconductor material. When a current passes through the thermocouple composed of the two different semiconductor materials, heat transfer occurs between the two ends, and heat is transferred from one end to the other end, thereby generating a temperature difference to form cold and hot ends. The adsorption surface 201 is located at the heat absorption end of the semiconductor cooling sheet. When a current passes through the semiconductor cooling sheet, the semiconductor cooling sheet absorbs heat on one side of the adsorption surface 201, so that the temperature on one side of the adsorption surface 201 is reduced to below the freezing point of the first medium 101. Contacting the adsorption surface 201 with the first medium 101 in a liquid state on the light-emitting device 30 can convert the first medium 101 in a liquid state into the first medium 101 in a solid state, and the transfer assembly 20 and the light-emitting device 30 are connected.

[0039] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 , the transfer assembly 20 includes a transfer substrate 203, the refrigeration component includes a containing cavity 2023 arranged inside the transfer substrate 203 and a second medium 2024 arranged in the containing cavity 2023, and the adsorption surface 201 is located on one side of the transfer substrate 203.

[0040] It can be understood that the second medium 2024 is used to reduce the temperature of the transfer substrate 203, so that the temperature of the adsorption surface 201 is lower than the freezing point of the first medium 101. Contacting the adsorption surface 201 with the first medium 101 in a liquid state on the light-emitting device 30 can convert the first medium 101 in a liquid state into the first medium 101 in a solid state, and the transfer assembly 20 and the light-emitting device 30 are connected.

[0041] It should be noted that the shape of the containing cavity 2023 is not specifically required. In this embodiment, the shape of the containing cavity 2023 is rectangular. In other embodiments, the shape of the containing cavity 2023 can be circular, elliptical, rhombic, or a combination of one or more irregular shapes. It can be understood that the containing cavity 2023 provides sufficient space to accommodate the second medium 2024, so that the second medium 2024 is sufficient to reduce the temperature of the adsorption surface 201 to below the freezing point of the first medium 101. There is no necessary connection between the shape and volume of the containing cavity 2023. Therefore, the shape of the containing cavity is not specifically required.

[0042] In some embodiments, continuing to refer to Figure 2 , the thickness of the inner wall of the transfer substrate 203 on the side of the accommodating cavity 2023 close to the adsorption surface 201 is less than or equal to the thickness of the inner wall on the side of the accommodating cavity 2023 away from the adsorption surface 201.

[0043] Specifically, the second medium 2024 is arranged in the accommodating cavity 2023, and the inner wall between the accommodating cavity 2023 and the adsorption surface 201 serves as a temperature conduction medium, so that the temperature of the adsorption surface 201 is reduced to below the freezing point of the first medium 101. The smaller the thickness of the inner wall between the accommodating cavity 2023 and the adsorption surface 201, the higher the heat conduction rate, the shorter the time for reducing the temperature of the adsorption surface 201 to below the freezing point of the first medium 101, the higher the transfer efficiency, and the temperature of the adsorption surface 201 can also be closer to the temperature of the second medium 2024. When the adsorption surface 201 contacts the first medium 101 in a liquid state on the light emitting device 30, the time for converting the first medium 101 in a liquid state to the first medium 101 in a solid state can be shortened, further improving the transfer efficiency. Further, the inner wall of the transfer substrate 203 on the side of the accommodating cavity 2023 away from the adsorption surface 201 and the inner wall of the transfer substrate 203 in the direction perpendicular to the adsorption surface 201 are both provided with a vacuum layer 2025, that is, except for the inner wall between the adsorption surface 201 and the accommodating cavity 2023, the other inner walls are provided with the vacuum layer 2025. The vacuum layer 2025 is conducive to maintaining the temperature of the second medium 2024 in the accommodating cavity 2023, reducing the heat transfer between the external environment and the second medium 2024, and further improving the transfer efficiency.

[0044] In some embodiments, the first medium 101 can be water, and the second medium 2024 can be liquid nitrogen or dry ice. Specifically, water is a non-toxic, harmless and non-polluting liquid, water has no corrosion to the light emitting device 30 and the transfer assembly 20, and the water vapor state after vaporization diffuses in the air, which also does not pollute the environment; the temperature of liquid nitrogen is minus 196℃ at normal pressure, and the temperature of dry ice is minus 78.5℃ at normal pressure, both of which are lower than the freezing point of water (0℃). Therefore, the second medium 2024 can reduce the temperature of the adsorption surface 201 to below the freezing point of the first medium 101, and when the adsorption surface 201 contacts the first medium 101 in a liquid state on the light emitting device 30, the first medium 101 in a liquid state can be quickly converted to the first medium 101 in a solid state, greatly improving the transfer efficiency.

[0045] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 3The transfer substrate 203 is provided with a plurality of grooves 2026 on one side of the adsorption surface 201. When the transfer substrate 203 is aligned with the light emitting device 30 on the carrier substrate 40, any of the grooves 2026 corresponds to any of the light emitting devices 30 on the carrier substrate 40.

[0046] In the embodiment, the projection of the grooves 2026 on the carrier substrate 40 is rectangular. When the adsorption surface 201 is in contact with the first medium 101 in liquid state on the light emitting device 30, the grooves 2026 are above the light emitting device 30 and correspond to the light emitting device 30 one by one. Any of the grooves 2026 adsorbs any of the light emitting devices 30 on the carrier substrate 40. The projection of any of the grooves 2026 on the carrier substrate 40 covers at least the projection of any of the light emitting devices 30 on the carrier substrate 40. The depth of any of the grooves 2026 is greater than 1 / 2 of the thickness of any of the light emitting devices 30 and less than or equal to the thickness of any of the light emitting devices 30. When the grooves 2026 on the transfer substrate 203 are aligned with the light emitting device 30, the bottom of the grooves 2026 should be in contact with the first medium 101 in liquid state on the light emitting device 30. It can be understood that when the transfer substrate 203 adsorbs the light emitting device 30, the light emitting device 30 is in the groove 2026, the temperature conduction in the groove is faster, and the first medium 101 in liquid state on the light emitting device 30 can be quickly converted into the first medium 101 in solid state, achieving higher transfer efficiency. In other embodiments, the projection of the grooves 2026 on the carrier substrate 40 can also be circular or other irregular shapes, as long as the projection of any of the grooves 2026 on the carrier substrate 40 covers at least the projection of any of the light emitting devices 30 on the carrier substrate 40 when the grooves 2026 on the transfer substrate 203 are aligned with the light emitting device 30, and the depth of any of the grooves 2026 is greater than 1 / 2 of the thickness of any of the light emitting devices 30 and less than or equal to the thickness of any of the light emitting devices 30.

[0047] Referring to Figure 4 and Figure 6 In some embodiments of the present application, the spraying assembly 10 comprises a moving member 102 and at least one spraying element 103 arranged on the moving member 102.

[0048] It can be understood that the moving member 102 comprises a moving device and a liquid storage device, the moving device can be a ball screw or a mechanical arm, the moving device comprises a driving element for driving the moving device to move the spraying assembly 10, and the liquid storage device is used for storing the first medium 101 in a liquid state for spraying by the spraying element 103. The spraying assembly 10 is moved by the moving member 102 in a direction parallel to the carrier substrate 40, the spraying assembly 10 comprises a plurality of spraying elements 103, and the arrangement direction of the spraying elements 103 on the spraying assembly 10 is perpendicular to the moving direction of the spraying assembly 10 moved by the moving member 102. For example, the spraying elements 103 are arranged in a row in a first direction X on the spraying assembly 10, any spraying element 103 corresponds to any light emitting device 30 arranged in the first direction on the carrier substrate 40, the moving direction of the spraying assembly 10 moved by the moving member 102 is a second direction Y, the first direction X is perpendicular to the second direction Y, and both the first direction X and the second direction Y are on a horizontal plane parallel to the carrier substrate 40. When the spraying assembly 10 sprays above the light emitting device 30, the spraying elements 103 on the spraying assembly 10 correspond to the light emitting devices 30 on the carrier substrate 40 one by one, any spraying element 103 corresponds to any light emitting device 30 on the carrier substrate 40, and the spraying is more uniform. The transfer assembly 20 is as described above, and details are not described here. The projection of the adsorbing surface 201 on the carrier substrate 40 covers at least the projection of the light emitting device 30 sprayed by the spraying assembly 10 on the carrier substrate 40.

[0049] In some embodiments of the present application, the heating assembly comprises a welding device, and the welding temperature is higher than the temperature at which the first medium 101 in a solid state is converted into the first medium 101 in a gaseous state. The welding device is used for welding the pins of the light emitting device 30 with the target substrate 50, so as to fix the light emitting device 30 on the target substrate 50. The light emitting device 30 is heated during the welding process, and due to the temperature difference between the light emitting device 30 and the first medium 101 in a solid state on the light emitting device 30, the light emitting device 30 releases heat to the first medium 101 in a solid state. When the temperature of the light emitting device 30 exceeds the temperature at which the first medium 101 in a solid state is converted into the first medium 101 in a gaseous state, the first medium is finally completely converted into a gaseous state and diffused into the air, and there is no residue on the light emitting device 30, and the performance of the light emitting device 30 is not affected.

[0055] Specifically, referring to Figure 7 , the refrigeration member absorbs the heat of the adsorption surface 201 to reduce the temperature of the adsorption surface 201 to below the freezing point of the liquid first medium 101, the adsorption surface 201 being in contact with the liquid first medium 101 on the light emitting devices 30, and since the temperature of the adsorption surface 201 is below the freezing point of the liquid first medium 101, there is a temperature difference between the adsorption surface 201 and the liquid first medium 101, the liquid first medium 101 releases heat and solidifies between the adsorption surface 201 and the light emitting devices 30, and the solid first medium 101 connects the transfer assembly 20 and the light emitting devices 30.
