Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments.
[0043] It should be noted that, in the description of the present application, the meaning of the terms "on", "above", "above", and "above" should be interpreted in the broadest sense, meaning that the description containing these terms is interpreted as "the component can be set on another component in direct contact, or there can be an intermediate component or layer between the components". In addition, for the convenience of description, the present application may also use spatial relative terms such as "under", "below", "under", "on", "above", "above", "lower", "upper", etc. to describe the relationship between an element or component and another element or component shown in the drawings. In addition to the orientations described in the figures, the spatial relative terms are also intended to cover different orientations of the device in use or operation. The device can be oriented in other ways (rotated 90° or in other orientations), and the spatial relative descriptors used in the present application can be interpreted accordingly.
[0044] The term "layer" as used in this application refers to a portion of a material that includes an area having a certain thickness. A layer may extend over the entire underlying or superstructure, or may extend over a localized area of the underlying or superstructure. In addition, a layer may be an area of a homogeneous or inhomogeneous continuous structure whose thickness is less than the thickness of the continuous structure. For example, a layer may be located between the top and bottom surfaces of the continuous structure or between any pair of horizontal planes therebetween. A layer may extend horizontally, vertically and / or along a tapered surface.
[0045] The current display brightness of Micro-LED micro-display chips is poor, which limits their application in high-demand display fields. Therefore, how to improve the display brightness of Micro-LED micro-display chips has become a technical problem that technicians in this field need to solve urgently.

[0050] In the embodiment of the present application, the wavelength conversion layer has two functions at the same time, specifically including the function of converting the first color light emitted by the LED unit into the second color light, and also including the function of gathering the converted color light. In this way, while improving the display brightness of the Micro-LED micro display chip, it can also make the thickness of the Micro-LED micro display chip thinner and the preparation process simpler.
[0051] Figures 1 to 3 A possible cross-sectional structure diagram of a Micro LED micro display chip is provided. Figure 1 As shown, the Micro LED micro display chip may include a driving panel 101 , a plurality of LED units 102 and a wavelength conversion layer 108 .
[0052] Among them, multiple LED units 102 can be arranged on the driving panel 101 in a regular or irregular manner. As pixels of the Micro-LED micro display chip, the size of the LED unit 102 is 0.1-10 microns. In a preferred embodiment, the size of the LED unit 102 is less than 5 microns.
[0053] In some embodiments, the LED unit 102 may be a micro light emitting diode or a micro organic light emitting diode, wherein the micro light emitting diode is formed based on an inorganic semiconductor material, for example, the inorganic semiconductor material may be gallium nitride, aluminum gallium nitrogen, gallium arsenide, aluminum gallium indium phosphide, etc., and the micro organic light emitting diode is formed based on an organic material, for example, the organic material may be a small molecule, a polymer, a phosphorescent material, etc.
[0054] In the embodiment of the present application, the color of the first color light emitted by the LED unit 102 includes but is not limited to: any one of red light, green light, blue light, yellow light or ultraviolet light.
[0055] In the embodiment of the present application, the design of the first curved surface 10811 can make the first wavelength conversion unit 1081 have the effect of gathering light. The first connecting surface can be a plane, such as Figure 1 As shown, it may not be a plane. For example, the first connection surface may cover the corresponding LED unit, and in this case, the first connection surface is not a plane.
[0056] In some embodiments, the orthographic projection of the first wavelength conversion unit may completely overlap with the orthographic projection of the corresponding LED unit, or the LED unit is located within the orthographic projection of the first wavelength conversion unit.
[0057] In some embodiments, the wavelength conversion layer also includes a plurality of second wavelength conversion units; the second wavelength conversion unit includes a second curved surface and a second connecting surface located below the second curved surface, the edge of the second connecting surface is connected to the edge of the second curved surface, the second connecting surface is arranged above the light emitting surface of at least part of the other LED units, and the second wavelength conversion unit is used to convert the first color light emitted by the LED unit into a third color light and gather the third color light.
[0058] The wavelength conversion layer also includes a plurality of third wavelength conversion units; the third wavelength conversion unit includes a third curved surface and a third connecting surface located below the third curved surface, the edge of the third connecting surface is connected to the edge of the third curved surface, the third connecting surface is arranged above the light emitting surface of at least part of the other LED units, and the third wavelength conversion unit is used to convert the first color light emitted by the LED unit into a fourth color light and gather the fourth color light.
[0059] The second curved surface and the third curved surface also have the effect of gathering light. The second connecting surface and the third connecting surface, like the first connecting surface, can be set to be a plane or a non-plane.
[0060] In some embodiments, the second color light, the third color light and the fourth color light are all different and correspond arbitrarily to RGB (red, green, blue), thereby obtaining a color Micro-LED micro display chip.
[0061] Exemplarily, the first color light is ultraviolet light, and the second color light is red light. The first wavelength conversion unit 1081 converts the ultraviolet light emitted by the LED unit 102 into red light, and gathers the red light, so that the brightness of the red light can be improved; the first color light emitted by the LED unit 102 is ultraviolet light, and the third color light is green light. The second wavelength conversion unit 1082 converts the ultraviolet light emitted by the LED unit 102 into green light, and gathers the green light, so that the brightness of the green light can be improved; the first color light emitted by the LED unit 102 is ultraviolet light, and the fourth color light is blue light. The third wavelength conversion unit 1083 converts the ultraviolet light emitted by the LED unit 102 into blue light, and gathers the blue light, so that the brightness of the blue light can be improved.
[0062] See also Figure 1 ,exist Figure 1 The wavelength conversion layer 108 includes a first wavelength conversion unit 1081, a second wavelength conversion unit 1082 and a third wavelength conversion unit 1083. It should be noted that due to Figure 1 The size limit is Figure 1 Only one first wavelength conversion unit 1081 , one second wavelength conversion unit 1082 and one third wavelength conversion unit 1083 are shown. In fact, the Micro-LED micro display chip includes multiple first wavelength conversion units 1081 , multiple second wavelength conversion units 1082 and multiple third wavelength conversion units 1083 .
[0063] In some embodiments, the second wavelength conversion unit and the third wavelength conversion unit may be the same as the first wavelength conversion unit, and the orthographic projection may completely overlap with the orthographic projection of the corresponding LED unit 102, or the LED unit is located within the orthographic projection.
[0064] In the embodiment of the present application, the first wavelength conversion unit 1081, the second wavelength conversion unit 1082 and the third wavelength conversion unit 1083 can have two functions at the same time, one of which is to convert the first color light emitted by the LED unit 102 into other color lights, and the other is to gather the converted color light. In this way, while improving the display brightness, since the first wavelength conversion unit 1081, the second wavelength conversion unit 1082 and the third wavelength conversion unit 1083 all have two functions at the same time, there is no need to use two components with separate functions, such as a component with a conversion function and another component with a light gathering function, so that the thickness of the Micro-LED micro display chip is thinner and the preparation process is simpler.
[0065] In some embodiments, when the first color light emitted by the LED unit 102 and the color light converted by the wavelength conversion unit (including the first wavelength conversion unit 1081, the second wavelength conversion unit 1082 and the third wavelength conversion unit 1083) are the same color, the wavelength conversion unit may not be set above the light emitting surface of the LED unit 102.
[0066] Exemplarily, the first color light emitted by the LED unit 102 is blue light, and the fourth color light converted by the third wavelength conversion unit 1083 is blue light. In this case, the third wavelength conversion unit 1083 may not be set, and only the first connecting surface of the first wavelength conversion unit 1081 and the second connecting surface of the second wavelength conversion unit 1082 may be set above the light emitting surface of the LED unit 102.
[0067] In some embodiments, the wavelength conversion layer also includes a plurality of transparent units; the transparent unit includes a fourth curved surface and a fourth connecting surface located below the fourth curved surface, the edge of the fourth connecting surface is connected to the edge of the fourth curved surface, the fourth connecting surface is arranged above the light emitting surface of at least part of the other LED units, and the transparent unit allows the first color light emitted by the LED unit to pass through and gathers the first color light.
[0068] In this way, if the first color light emitted by the LED unit 102 is the same color as the color light converted by the wavelength conversion unit, a transparent unit can be directly arranged on the light-emitting surface of the LED unit 102. The transparent unit can enhance the brightness of the first color light emitted by the LED unit 102 without the wavelength conversion unit arranged above the light-emitting surface. The transparent unit only has the function of gathering the first color light, and does not have the function of converting the first color light into other color lights. In some embodiments, the transparent unit can have the same shape as the wavelength conversion unit. Exemplarily, the first color light emitted by the LED unit 102 is blue light, and the color light converted by the wavelength conversion unit is also blue light. In this case, the wavelength conversion unit can be arranged on the light-emitting surface of the LED unit 102 without the wavelength conversion unit arranged. The transparent unit can be arranged directly.
[0069] In some embodiments, the material of the wavelength conversion layer 108 includes wavelength conversion particles and photoresist. The wavelength conversion particles may be, for example, phosphors and / or quantum dots, etc., and the present embodiment does not specifically limit this. For example, the quantum dots may be colloidal quantum dots. The photoresist in the present embodiment includes, but is not limited to, Overcoat glue, SU8 (near-ultraviolet negative photoresist), benzocyclobutene (BCB), etc., and may also be SiO 2 , Al 2 O 3 , Si 3 N 4The phosphor can be yttrium aluminum garnet, cerium phosphor, (oxy) nitride phosphor, silicate phosphor and Mn 4+ Activated fluoride phosphors, etc. The quantum dots may include one or more combinations of CdSe, CdS, CdZnSe, CdZnS, CdZnSeS, ZnSeS, ZnSe, CuInS, CuInSe, InP, InZnP, and perovskite quantum dots, etc., and the present application does not impose specific restrictions on this.
[0070] In some embodiments, the material of the first wavelength conversion unit 1081 includes photoresist, quantum dots and / or phosphor; the material of the second wavelength conversion unit 1082 includes photoresist, quantum dots and / or phosphor; the material of the third wavelength conversion unit 1083 includes photoresist, quantum dots and / or phosphor.
[0071] In some embodiments, the Micro-LED micro display chip further includes a filter layer, which includes a plurality of first filter units 1094 , and the first filter units 1094 cover the first curved surface 10811 ; the first filter units 1094 allow the second color light to pass through and filter out other color lights.
[0072] In the embodiment of the present application, in order to prevent the first wavelength conversion unit 1081 from being unable to completely convert the first color light into the second color light, a first filter unit 1094 is provided on the first curved surface 10811 of the first wavelength conversion unit 1081, so that the first filter unit 1094 is highly selective, and only allows the second color light to pass smoothly, while efficiently filtering out all other color lights other than the second color light. In some embodiments, the first filter unit is a curved structure, and the first filter unit can further gather the second color light. In one example, the LED unit 102 emits blue light, and the first wavelength conversion unit 1081 converts the blue light into red light. The first filter unit 1094 only allows red light to pass through and filters out color lights other than red light. The purpose of such a design is to ensure that the red light emitted in the Micro-LED micro display chip is purer, and to achieve accurate screening of light and optimize the display effect.
[0073] In some embodiments, the filter layer further includes a plurality of second filter units 1096 , and the second filter units 1096 cover the second curved surface of the second wavelength conversion unit 1082 ; the second filter units 1096 allow the third color light to pass through, and filter out color light other than the third color light.
[0074] In one example, the LED unit 102 emits blue light, the second wavelength conversion unit 1082 converts the blue light into green light, and the second filter unit 1096 only allows green light to pass through and filters out light of colors other than green light. The purpose of this design is to ensure that the green light emitted from the Micro-LED micro display chip is purer, to achieve precise screening of light and optimize the display effect.
[0075] In some embodiments, the filter layer further includes a plurality of third filter units 1098, wherein the third filter units 1098 cover the third curved surface of the third wavelength conversion unit 1083, and the third filter units 1098 allow the fourth color light to pass through and filter out color light other than the fourth color light.
[0076] In one example, the LED unit 102 emits ultraviolet light, the third wavelength conversion unit 1083 converts the ultraviolet light into blue light, and the third filter unit 1098 only allows blue light to pass through and filters out color light other than blue light. The purpose of this design is to ensure that the blue light emitted from the Micro-LED micro display chip is purer, to achieve precise screening of light and optimize the display effect.
[0077] In some embodiments, the materials of the first filter unit 1094, the second filter unit 1096 and the third filter unit 1098 include but are not limited to organic color filter photoresist, Bragg distributed reflector, etc.
[0078] In the embodiment of the present application, the first filter unit 1094, the second filter unit 1096 and the third filter unit 1098 allow different colors of light to pass through, and correspond to RGB (red, green, blue) at will. In this embodiment, by preparing R / G / B three-color color filter (Color Filter, CF) graphics on the Micro-LED micro-display chip, not only the color separation effect is enhanced, but also the color reproduction ability and display quality of the Micro-LED micro-display chip are improved.
[0079] In some embodiments, the Micro-LED micro display chip further includes a first etch stop layer 1112 ; the first etch stop layer 1112 is disposed on the surface of the LED unit 102 and on the upper surface of the driving panel 101 .
[0080] Etching technology is used in the process of preparing the Micro-LED micro display chip. In order to better protect the LED unit 102 and the driving panel 101 in the Micro-LED micro display chip, a first etching stop layer 1112 is provided in the embodiment of the present application.
[0081] In some embodiments, the first etch stop layer 1112 should have sufficient transparency, and generally can be made of silicon dioxide, silicon nitride, aluminum oxide and the like. It should be noted that the first etch stop layer 1112 is a continuous film structure. In some embodiments, the thickness of the first etch stop layer 1112 can be, for example, 300 to 800 nm. Of course, the thickness of the first etch stop layer 1112 can also be selected according to specific circumstances.
[0082] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the Micro-LED micro display chip further includes a transmissive reflective layer 1132, which is disposed between the light emitting surface of the LED unit and the wavelength conversion layer. The transmissive reflective layer is used to transmit the first color light and reflect other color lights.
[0083] In some embodiments, the transflective layer has a preset thickness, so that the focus of the first curved surface is located below the transflective layer.
[0084] In the embodiment of the present application, the transmissive reflective layer can be regarded as a light source. When the light source is located within the focal length of the first curved surface, even if the intensity of the light source is low, an amplified virtual image of sufficient brightness can be obtained through the first wavelength conversion unit, and ultimately a high-intensity light source is obtained, thereby improving the brightness of the second light displayed by the Micro-LED micro display chip.
[0085] In some embodiments, the transflective layer is a continuous structure.
[0086] In some embodiments, the transmissive reflective layer 1132 includes a plurality of transmissive reflective units 1131 ; each transmissive reflective unit 1131 is correspondingly disposed below the light emitting surface and the first connecting surface of an LED unit 102 , and the transmissive reflective unit 1131 is used to transmit the first color light and reflect other color lights.
[0087] Exemplarily, the LED unit 102 emits a first color light (e.g., blue light), and the first wavelength conversion unit converts the first color light into a second color light (e.g., red light) and gathers the second color light. The transmissive reflective unit is located between the light emitting surface of the LED unit 102 and the first wavelength conversion unit 1081, and is used to transmit the first color light (e.g., blue light) emitted by the LED unit 102, and reflect the second color light (e.g., red light) converted by the first wavelength conversion unit 1081, which can effectively reduce the interface light loss between the LED unit 102 and the wavelength conversion layer 108, and improve the light energy utilization efficiency.
[0088] In some embodiments, the transflective layer includes a distributed Bragg reflector and / or a high refractive index mirror.
[0089] Specifically, this embodiment can use a distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) and / or a high refractive index reflector (HBR) to prepare a transmissive reflective layer. The distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) is based on the Bragg scattering principle and is prepared by alternating two materials with different refractive indices. The thickness of each layer is precisely set to 1 / 4n wavelength, where n refers to the refractive index of the material of the layer. The reflection performance of the DBR is mainly subject to factors such as the number of alternating layers, the difference in refractive index between layers, and the layer boundary conditions. It can achieve precise reflection for specific wavelengths and allow other wavelengths to pass through.
[0090] Furthermore, the high refractive index reflector (HBR) can be made of a more complex combination of multiple materials and multiple thicknesses, and can be optimized through simulation software, and different refractive index materials can be selected for irregular alternating superposition. Among them, HBR can achieve higher reflection of the corresponding wavelength while achieving higher transmission of other wavelengths.
[0091] This embodiment uses a distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) and / or a high refractive index reflector (HBR) to prepare a transmissive reflective layer, which can take into account both preparation cost and performance optimization. On the one hand, the DBR structure is easy to manufacture and cost-controlled, and is suitable for large-scale production environments; on the other hand, the HBR structure has good flexibility and efficiency, and is suitable for use in quantum dot structure designs that require extremely high light conversion efficiency, to ensure that the color purity and brightness performance of the Micro-LED microdisplay chip are maximized. Through the above dual design, a balance between optical performance and cost can be achieved in different application scenarios.
[0092] In some embodiments, the high refractive index reflector can be composed of a plurality of materials with different refractive indices and thicknesses alternatingly fitted by simulation software, wherein the number of groups of alternating film layers composed of materials with different refractive indices alternatingly is greater than five.
[0093] Specifically, the high refractive index reflector (HBR) can be made of a complex combination of multiple materials and multiple thicknesses, which can be optimized through simulation software simulation, and different refractive index materials are selected for irregular alternating superposition. Compared with the distributed Bragg reflector (DBR), the high refractive index reflector (HBR) can achieve a higher reflectivity wavelength range on the same device, while maintaining a high transmittance for other wavelengths. In order to achieve the ideal high reflectivity, the HBR structure usually requires at least five pairs of alternating film layers. Among them, alternating film layers refer to a group of film layers composed of multiple different materials alternating.
[0094] This embodiment provides a DBR / HBR structure on the lower surface of the wavelength conversion layer, and can utilize the gradual change characteristics from high refractive index to low refractive index in the DBR / HBR structure, and select a variety of materials with different refractive indices, so as to effectively reduce the interface light loss between the LED unit 102 and the wavelength conversion layer. In particular, in the HBR design, the blue light emitted by the bottom LED unit 102 can be fully transmitted, and at the same time, the converted light emitted downward by the wavelength conversion layer 108 will be reflected back to the upper surface, which greatly improves the overall light conversion efficiency of the film layer, thereby obtaining a color LED chip with higher brightness. In addition, through the DBR / HBR design, the blue light that the wavelength conversion layer 108 fails to absorb will be reflected back to the wavelength conversion layer 108 for absorption and conversion again. For green quantum dots with weaker absorption capacity, this secondary absorption and conversion mechanism significantly improves its light conversion effect, thereby enhancing the color purity and overall performance of the display chip.
[0095] Further, see Figure 4 By setting the HBR structure on the lower surface of the wavelength conversion layer, the HBR can adjust the reflection curve to a situation without a secondary peak, and the reflection curve is smoother. It can achieve higher reflection of the corresponding wavelength while having higher transmission of other wavelengths, thereby obtaining a brighter and purer conversion spectrum.

[0097] In this way, the wavelength conversion layer 108 can be arranged on the plane formed by the upper surface of the LED unit 102 and the upper surface of the planarization structure 1101, so that the wavelength conversion layer 108 is more stably supported, improving the stability of the Micro-LED micro display chip, and at the same time, it is easier to complete the arrangement of the wavelength conversion layer 108 on the plane, and the process difficulty is lower. In the embodiment of the present application, the planarization structure 1101 can be made of any transparent material.

The third planarization layer 1103 is a continuous structure, and the third planarization layer 1103 can support the transmissive reflective layer 1132 disposed thereon more stably, thereby improving the stability of the Micro-LED micro display chip.
[0104] In some embodiments, the Micro-LED micro display chip further includes a second etch stop layer 1111 ; the second etch stop layer is disposed above a plane formed by an upper surface of the LED unit 102 and an upper surface of the third planarization layer 1103 .
