[0024] In related technologies, full-color Micro LED solutions primarily utilize a light-combining module (X Cube) to achieve three-color light combination. This involves attaching three monochromatic light-emitting modules, each individually connected to a circuit board and packaged, to the three surfaces of the light-combining module, with mechanical correction for alignment errors during assembly. In this solution, each monochromatic light-emitting module forms a module with its own circuit board, and the three modules are then attached to corresponding surfaces of the light-combining module. This results in a relatively large overall assembly footprint.

[0025] The present disclosure provides a method for preparing a micro LED device.

[0026] According to embodiments of the present disclosure, the pixel size in the micro LED device is typically less than 50 microns.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, the method for preparing a micro LED device includes the following steps S101-S108.

[0028] Step S101: Provide a first micro LED module, a second micro LED module, a third micro LED module, a substrate, a flexible circuit board and a light combining module, wherein the first micro LED module, the second micro LED module and the third micro LED module each include a driving substrate and a micro LED chip arranged on the driving substrate.

[0029] Step S102: Disposing one side of the driving substrate of the first micro LED module on the substrate.

[0030] Step S103: Disposing a flexible supporting layer on the substrate and around the first micro LED module.

[0031] Step S104: separately arranging the second micro LED module and the third micro LED module on the flexible supporting layer and on both sides of the first micro LED module, so that the second micro LED module and the third micro LED module are electrically connected to the driving substrate of the first micro LED module.

[0032] Step S105: removing the substrate.

[0033] Step S106: electrically connecting the driving substrate of the first micro LED module to the flexible circuit board, so that the flexible circuit board controls the first micro LED module, the second micro LED module and the third micro LED module, to obtain a first intermediate structure.

[0034] Step S107: Bend the first intermediate structure so that the second micro LED module and the third micro LED module are opposite to each other to form a receiving space, wherein light emission directions of the first micro LED module, the second micro LED module, and the third micro LED module are toward the receiving space, thereby obtaining a device assembly structure.

[0035] Step S108: placing the light combining module in the accommodation space to form the micro LED device.

[0036] According to this technical solution, a flexible support layer can be arranged around a first micro LED module, and a second micro LED module and a third micro LED module can be arranged on the flexible support layer. The second micro LED module and the third micro LED module are electrically connected to the driver substrate of the first micro LED module. The driver substrate of the first micro LED module is also electrically connected and arranged on a flexible circuit board, so that the flexible circuit board controls the first, second, and third micro LED modules, thereby forming a first intermediate structure. The first intermediate structure is then bent so that the second micro LED module and the third micro LED module face each other, forming a storage space. Finally, a light combining module is placed in the storage space to form a micro LED device. As a result, the first, second, and third micro LED modules can share a single flexible circuit board, i.e., they are controlled by only one flexible circuit board, thereby reducing the volume of the entire micro LED device and facilitating its application in smaller environments.

[0037] In step S101, a first micro LED module, a second micro LED module, a third micro LED module, a substrate, a flexible circuit board and a light combining module can be provided, wherein the first micro LED module, the second micro LED module and the third micro LED module emit light of different colors and each include a driving substrate and a micro LED chip arranged on the driving substrate.

[0038] According to the embodiments of the present disclosure, the first micro LED module, the second micro LED module, the third micro LED module, the substrate, the flexible circuit board, and the light combining module required for preparing a micro LED device can be first obtained. The first micro LED module, the second micro LED module, and the third micro LED module are any micro LED modules suitable for preparing a micro LED device and composed of a micro LED chip and a driver substrate. It is worth noting that the first micro LED module, the second micro LED module, the third micro LED module, the substrate, the flexible circuit board, and the light combining module can also be obtained in any step before the step of using these components.

[0039] Furthermore, the light combining module is used to combine the different colors of light emitted by the first micro LED module, the second micro LED module and the third micro LED module. The first micro LED module can, for example, emit blue light, the second micro LED module can, for example, emit green light, and the third micro LED module can, for example, emit red light. Of course, the first micro LED module, the second micro LED module and the third micro LED module can also emit light of other colors, as long as they are suitable for achieving full color, and there is no limitation here. The light combining module may include a light combining prism, and the light combining module may also be any other applicable device that can combine the different colors of light emitted by the first micro LED module, the second micro LED module and the third micro LED module to achieve full color. The substrate may include a transparent substrate, and the transparent substrate may include a glass substrate, a sapphire substrate, etc.

[0040] In step S102 , a driving substrate side of the first micro LED module is disposed on the substrate.

[0041] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a first micro LED module may be provided on the substrate, and a driving substrate of the first micro LED module may be connected to the substrate.

[0042] Reference Figure 2-Figure 15 ,in Figure 2 FIG. 1 shows a side view of a first micro LED module 10 disposed on a substrate 103 according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 2 As shown, the first micro LED module 10 includes a first driving substrate 101 and a first micro LED chip 102 electrically connected to the first driving substrate 101. The first micro LED module 10 can emit blue light, for example. Specifically, the first micro LED chip 102 can include a light emitting unit array consisting of at least one first light emitting unit 1021. Figure 2 Only two first light-emitting units 1021 are schematically shown, and this is not intended to be limiting. The first drive substrate 101 may be, for example, a CMOS substrate. The substrate 103 may be, for example, a transparent substrate, preferably a glass substrate. The first drive substrate 101 of the first micro LED module 10 is disposed on the substrate 103.

[0043] In step S103 , a flexible supporting layer may be provided on the substrate and around the first micro LED module.

[0044] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, after the first micro LED module is disposed on the substrate, a flexible supporting layer may be disposed on the substrate around the first micro LED module.

[0045] Furthermore, disposing a flexible supporting layer on the substrate and around the first micro LED module may include: disposing a flexible supporting material on the substrate and the first micro LED module; and grinding the flexible supporting material until the upper surface of the first micro LED module is exposed to form the flexible supporting layer. The flexible supporting material may include a fluid organic compound, which may include epoxy resin.

[0046] Reference Figure 2-Figure 15 ,in Figure 3 FIG. 1 shows a side view of a flexible support material 104 disposed on a substrate 103 and a first micro LED module 10 according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 3 As shown, a molding device can be used to cover the substrate 103 and the first micro LED module 10 with a flexible support material such as epoxy resin, and the epoxy resin with fluidity can be leveled in a vacuum environment. In addition, the molding device can control the thickness of the flexible support material by, for example, controlling a sensor, and at the same time, ensure that the flexible support material is free of bubbles in a high vacuum environment, thereby forming a film after curing. Figure 3 The flexible supporting material 104 shown is flexible and insulating. Of course, the flexible supporting material can also be any other suitable material.

[0047] Reference Figure 2-Figure 15 ,in Figure 4 FIG. 1 shows a side view of a flexible supporting layer 105 formed of a flexible supporting material 104 according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 4 As shown, the flexible support material 104 can be processed by chemical mechanical polishing using physical friction and chemical reaction until the upper surface of the first micro LED chip 102 of the first micro LED module 10 is exposed to form a flexible support layer 105. This method can obtain a plane with extremely high flatness. The mechanical friction is mainly achieved by the polishing equipment and the polishing particles (such as silicon oxide particles) added to the polishing liquid. The smaller the particle size of the silicon oxide particles, the smaller the surface roughness obtained. The chemical reaction is mainly achieved through the solvent components in the polishing liquid, such as citric acid, hydrogen peroxide, etc. The endpoint detection device of the polishing equipment can be used to monitor in real time whether the upper surface of the first micro LED chip 102 of the first micro LED module 10 is exposed.

[0048] In step S104, the second micro LED module and the third micro LED module may be separately arranged on the flexible supporting layer and on both sides of the first micro LED module, so that the second micro LED module and the third micro LED module are electrically connected to the driving substrate of the first micro LED module.

[0049] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, after setting a flexible supporting layer, a second micro LED module and a third micro LED module can be set on the flexible supporting layer and on both sides of the first micro LED module, and the second micro LED module and the third micro LED module can be electrically connected to the driving substrate of the first micro LED module.

[0050] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, separately arranging the second and third micro LED modules on the flexible supporting layer and on either side of the first micro LED module so that the second and third micro LED modules are electrically connected to the driver substrate of the first micro LED module includes: separately arranging the second and third micro LED modules on the flexible supporting layer and on either side of the first micro LED module so that the driver substrate of the second micro LED module is electrically connected to a first portion to be connected on the driver substrate of the first micro LED module, and the driver substrate of the third micro LED module is electrically connected to a second portion to be connected on the driver substrate of the first micro LED module. It is worth noting that the first portion to be connected and the second portion to be connected may be intermediate connection points on the driver substrate of the first micro LED module. The intermediate connection points may be included in the driver substrate of the first micro LED module itself, or may be provided on the driver substrate of the first micro LED module. In either case, the intermediate connection points, when electrically connected to other components, do not affect the normal operation of the first micro LED module itself.

[0051] Furthermore, the second micro LED module and the third micro LED module are separately arranged on the flexible supporting layer and on both sides of the first micro LED module, so that the driving substrate of the second micro LED module is electrically connected to the first to-be-connected portion on the driving substrate of the first micro LED module, and the driving substrate of the third micro LED module is electrically connected to the second to-be-connected portion on the driving substrate of the first micro LED module. This may include: forming a first contact hole and a second contact hole on the micro LED chip of the first micro LED module, so that the first contact hole exposes the first to-be-connected portion on the driving substrate of the first micro LED module, and the second contact hole exposes the second to-be-connected portion on the driving substrate of the first micro LED module; arranging a first metal wire connected as an integral whole on the first to-be-connected portion and on the flexible supporting layer, and forming a first metal wire connected as an integral whole on the second to-be-connected portion and on the flexible supporting layer.

It is noteworthy that the corresponding portion of the driver substrate of the second micro LED module may be a connection terminal on the driver substrate, to which a component having a control function is connected to control the driver substrate. Similarly, the corresponding portion of the driver substrate of the third micro LED module can be a connection terminal on the driver substrate, and the component with control function is connected to the connection terminal to control the driver substrate. The material of the protective layer includes polyimide, and the material of the protective layer can also be any other suitable material.

[0052] Furthermore, after connecting the third intermediate structure to a corresponding portion of the driver substrate of the second micro LED module via the first metal block, and connecting the third intermediate structure to a corresponding portion of the driver substrate of the third micro LED module via the second metal block, the method may further include filling a gap between the second micro LED module, the third micro LED module, and the second intermediate structure with a protective portion. The protective portion may include an underfill and may be formed of any suitable material.

[0053] Reference Figure 2-Figure 15 ,in Figure 5 FIG. 1 shows a side view of a first contact hole 1023 and a second contact hole 1024 provided on a first micro LED chip 102 of a first micro LED module 10 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 5 As shown, photolithography can be used to form first contact holes 1023 and second contact holes 1024 on the first micro LED chip 102 of the first micro LED module 10. The first contact hole 1023 exposes the first portion 1011 to be connected on the first driving substrate 101 of the first micro LED module 10, while the second contact hole 1024 exposes the second portion 1012 to be connected on the first driving substrate 101 of the first micro LED module 10. The first and second contact holes 1023 and 1024 can be located on both sides of the periphery of the first micro LED chip 102. The number of first contact holes 1023 corresponds to the number of first portions 1011 to be connected, and the number of second contact holes 1024 corresponds to the number of second portions 1012 to be connected. The first and second portions 1011 and 1012 to be connected are used to electrically connect to a subsequently installed flexible printed circuit board. The number of first and second portions 1011 and 1012 to be connected depends on the actual control requirements of the flexible printed circuit board.

Figure 9 The side view of the second micro LED module 20 and the third micro LED module 30 on the third intermediate structure 60 is shown. Figure 10 As shown, the second micro LED module 20 includes a second driving substrate 201 and a second micro LED chip 202 electrically connected to the second driving substrate 201. The third micro LED module 30 includes a third driving substrate 301 and a third micro LED chip 302 electrically connected to the third driving substrate 301.

Specifically, the second micro LED chip 202 can include a light-emitting unit array consisting of at least one second light-emitting unit 2021, and the third micro LED chip 302 can include a light-emitting unit array consisting of at least one third light-emitting unit 3021.

[0060] In step S105 , the substrate may be removed.

[0061] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, after obtaining Figure 11 After the structure shown, the substrate can be removed. The substrate can include a transparent substrate, which can include a glass substrate.

[0062] Reference Figure 2-Figure 15 ,in Figure 12 An embodiment according to the present disclosure is shown Figure 11 The structure shown is a side view after removing the substrate 103. Figure 12 As shown, in the case where the substrate 103 is a transparent substrate such as a glass substrate, a laser can be used to irradiate the flexible supporting layer 105 and the bottom surface of the first micro LED module through the glass substrate, so that the bottom surface is partially decomposed and melted, thereby separating the substrate 103 and obtaining the following Figure 12 It is worth noting that the substrate 103 may also be any other applicable type, for example, it may be an opaque substrate, so that the substrate can be removed using a corresponding method.

[0063] In step S106 , the driving substrate of the first micro LED module may be electrically connected and disposed on the flexible circuit board, so that the flexible circuit board controls the first micro LED module, the second micro LED module and the third micro LED module, thereby obtaining a first intermediate structure.

[0064] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, electrically connecting the driving substrate of the first micro LED module to the flexible circuit board may include: connecting the first to-be-connected portion and the second to-be-connected portion to corresponding portions of the flexible circuit board, respectively. Notably, the corresponding portions of the flexible circuit board may be connection terminals of the flexible circuit board, through which the flexible circuit board can control other components.

[0065] Specifically, when obtaining Figure 12 Following the structure shown, the driver substrate of the first micro LED module in this structure can be electrically connected to a flexible circuit board, allowing the flexible circuit board to control the first micro LED module. Furthermore, the first and second portions to be connected on the driver substrate of the first micro LED module are respectively connected to corresponding portions of the flexible circuit board. As described above, the first portion to be connected is electrically connected to the second micro LED module via the first metal wire, the first metal layer, and the first metal block, while the second portion to be connected is electrically connected to the third micro LED module via the second metal wire, the second metal layer, and the second metal block. Thus, the flexible circuit board controls the second and third micro LED modules. Thus, the first, second, and third micro LED modules can share a single flexible circuit board and, therefore, be controlled by the same flexible circuit board.

[0066] Reference Figure 2-Figure 15 ,in Figure 13 An embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. Figure 12 The structure shown is a side view of the flexible circuit board 40 electrically connected together. Figure 13As shown, the first driving substrate 101 of the first micro LED module 10 can be electrically connected to the flexible circuit board 40, so that the flexible circuit board 40 can control the first micro LED module 10. Furthermore, the first to-be-connected portion 1011 and the second to-be-connected portion 1012 on the first driving substrate 101 of the first micro LED module 10 are respectively connected to corresponding portions of the flexible circuit board. This connection can be achieved by connecting the first to-be-connected portion 1011 and the second to-be-connected portion 1012 to corresponding portions on the flexible circuit board 40 via internal wiring passing through the first driving substrate 101, or by providing through-holes connected to the first to-be-connected portion 1011 and the second to-be-connected portion 1012 in the flexible supporting layer 105 and the first micro LED chip 102, and then routing metal wires to connect the corresponding portions on the flexible circuit board 40. Of course, any other connection method is also possible and is not limited here. Furthermore, since the first portion to be connected 1011 is electrically connected to the second micro LED module 20 via the first metal wire 106, the first metal layer 109, and the first metal block 111, and the second portion to be connected 1012 is electrically connected to the third micro LED module 30 via the second metal wire 107, the second metal layer 110, and the second metal block 112, the flexible circuit board 40 can control the second micro LED module 20 and the third micro LED module 30. Thus, the first micro LED module 10, the second micro LED module 20, and the third micro LED module 30 can share the same flexible circuit board 40, that is, be controlled by the same flexible circuit board 40, thereby obtaining the following: Figure 13 The first intermediate structure 70 shown in FIG. The first intermediate structure 70 has only one flexible circuit board 40, so the volume of the first intermediate structure 70 is greatly reduced.

[0067] In step S107, the first intermediate structure can be bent so that the second micro LED module and the third micro LED module are opposite to each other to form an accommodation space, wherein the light emission directions of the first micro LED module, the second micro LED module and the third micro LED module are toward the accommodation space, thereby obtaining a device component structure.

[0068] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, after obtaining the first intermediate structure as described above, the first intermediate structure can be bent so that the light-emitting surface of the second micro LED module is opposite to the light-emitting surface of the third micro LED module, thereby forming an accommodating space for the first micro LED module, the second micro LED module and the third micro LED module, and the light-emitting directions of the first micro LED module, the second micro LED module and the third micro LED module are toward the accommodating space.

[0069] Reference Figure 2-Figure 15 ,in Figure 14FIG. 8 shows a side view of a device structure 80 formed by bending the first intermediate structure 70 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 14 As shown, Figure 13 The first intermediate structure 70 is bent so that the second light-emitting unit 2011 of the second micro LED module 20 and the third light-emitting unit 3011 of the third micro LED module 30 are opposite each other. As a result, the first micro LED module 10, the second micro LED module 20, and the third micro LED module 30 form a receiving space 801, and the light emission directions of the first micro LED module 10, the second micro LED module 20, and the third micro LED module 30 are toward the receiving space 801. It is worth noting that Figure 13 The lateral distances between the second micro LED module 20 and the third micro LED module 30 and the first micro LED module 10 in the first intermediate structure 70 are schematic. In practical applications, the lateral distances can ensure that the first intermediate structure 70 can be bent into Figure 14 The device structure 80 is shown, and the lateral distance can be determined according to the size of the subsequently arranged composite module.

[0070] In step S108 , the light combining module may be placed in the accommodation space to form the micro LED device.

[0071] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, after obtaining Figure 14 After the structure shown, the light combining module can be placed in the accommodation space. Specifically, as described above, the accommodation space is determined based on the size of the light combining module. Therefore, when the light combining module is placed in the accommodation space, the surfaces of the first micro LED module, the second micro LED module, and the third micro LED module can be close to the light combining module.

[0072] Furthermore, the light combining module is used to combine the lights of different colors emitted by the first micro LED module, the second micro LED module and the third micro LED module, and the light combining module includes a light combining prism.

[0073] Reference Figure 2-Figure 15 ,in Figure 15 According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, Figure 14 A side view of the light combining module 90 provided in the structure shown. Figure 15As shown, a light combining module 90 such as a light combining prism is inserted into the accommodation space 801, and the surfaces of the first micro LED module 10, the second micro LED module 20 and the third micro LED module 30 are close to the corresponding parts of the three surfaces of the light combining module 90, so that the light combining module 90 combines the lights of different colors emitted by the first micro LED module 10, the second micro LED module 20 and the third micro LED module 30, and the combined light is emitted from the surface of the light combining module 90 that is different from the three surfaces, that is, from the attached surface shown in FIG. Figure 15 Emitted from the upper surface.

[0074] Thus, the micro LED device is prepared. Figure 15 The micro LED device 1 is shown in FIG. 1 . It is worth noting that, since the micro LED device 1 uses only one flexible circuit board 40, the size of the micro LED device 1 is greatly reduced, which is conducive to the application of the device in a smaller size environment. In addition, since a flexible support layer such as epoxy resin is used in the preparation of the micro LED device 1, the micro LED device 1 is easily bent. Figure 13 The first intermediate structure shown has bending convenience and ductility, and after inserting the synthesis module, the bending degree can also be adjusted to change the position of the second micro LED module and the third micro LED module, thereby conveniently reducing the alignment error between the first micro LED module, the second micro LED module and the third micro LED module and the light combining module.
