[0062] In this embodiment, the light emitting surface of the light emitting device 28 is directed toward the driving backplane 27, and the first electrode 221 and the second electrode 222 of the light emitting device 28 are both located on the side of the epitaxial wafer 223 away from the driving backplane 27. In this way, the first electrode 221 and the second electrode 222 will not block the emitted light of the light emitting device 28, thereby improving the light emission utilization rate of the bottom-emitting display device and improving the problem of low light emission utilization rate caused by the bottom electrode of the flip chip in the bottom-emitting display device blocking the emitted light of the chip.

[0069] The light emitting device 28 is arranged on a side of the planarization layer 45 away from the substrate 40. The light emitting device 28 includes a Micro LED chip, a Mini LED chip or an LED chip. The transistor 50 is used to control the turning on and off of the light emitting device 28. Specifically, the first electrode 221 on the light emitting device 28 is bound to the driving backplane 27 through the first binding electrode 271, and is electrically connected to the transistor 50 through the first binding electrode 271, and the second electrode 222 on the light emitting device 28 is bound to the driving backplane 27 through the second binding electrode 272.

For example, in this embodiment, the orthographic projection of the transistor 50 on the substrate 40 is separated from the orthographic projection of the epitaxial wafer 223 on the substrate 40, which means that the orthographic projection of the transistor 50 on the substrate 40 and the orthographic projection of the epitaxial wafer 223 on the substrate 40 do not have overlapping parts, so as to avoid the transistor 50 blocking the emitted light of the light emitting device 28.

[0075] In one embodiment, the present invention further provides a display device, see Figures 1 to 5 , Figure 4 A schematic diagram of a display device provided in an embodiment of the utility model is shown in FIG. Figure 5 for Figure 4 Detailed structural diagram of the flip chip film structure. Figure 4 The display device 100 includes a display panel 20 and a COF structure 10. The display panel 20 is the display panel 20 of one of the above embodiments. The COF structure 10 is disposed on a side of the light emitting device 28 away from the driving backplane 27 and is bound to the driving backplane 27.
[0076] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 The COF structure 10 includes a substrate 1, a first circuit 2, a display panel binding terminal 3, and a first conductive portion 4. The substrate 1 includes a first surface 11 and a second surface 12 that are arranged opposite to each other, and a third surface 13 and a fourth surface 14 that are connected between the first surface 11 and the second surface 12. The first surface 11 can be the lower surface of the substrate 1, the second surface 12 can be the upper surface of the substrate 1, the third surface 13 and the fourth surface 14 are arranged opposite to each other, and both the third surface 13 and the fourth surface 14 can be the side surfaces of the substrate 1.

[0078] The display panel binding end 3 is located on the second surface 12 and is used to bind with the display panel. The first conductive part 4 is connected to the first line 2 and the display panel binding end 3 respectively. In this way, the driver chip binding area 21 and the display panel binding end 3 are located on opposite sides of the substrate 1. After the driver chip 8 and the display panel 20 are bound, the driver chip 8 and the display panel 20 are located on opposite sides of the substrate 1 to improve the display unevenness problem of the display panel caused by the heating of the driver chip. Among them, the top of the display panel 20 has a first binding end 24, and the first binding end 24 is arranged in the same layer as the first binding electrode 271 and the second binding electrode 272. The display panel binding end 3 is arranged facing the display panel 20 and is connected to the first binding end 24.
[0079] It should be noted that, continue to refer to Figure 1 The display device also includes a driver chip 8', and the driver chip 8' and the display panel 20' are bound to the same side of the chip-on-film structure 10', and the driver chip 8' is located between the display panel 20' and the chip-on-film structure 10'. Since the height of the driver chip 8' is relatively high, the height of the metal welding layer for binding the display panel 20' and the chip-on-film structure 10' is relatively high, resulting in a high difficulty in binding, which is prone to reliability problems and affects the binding yield. In addition, the driver chip 8' generates heat when working, causing the temperature of the display panel area close to the driver chip 8' to rise, thereby causing the luminous efficiency of the light-emitting device 28' in the display panel to decrease, and the brightness to decrease, thereby causing the display unevenness of the display panel.
[0080] The driver chip binding area 21 in this embodiment is located on the first surface 11 of the substrate 1, and the display panel binding end 3 is located on the second surface 12 of the substrate 1, that is, the driver chip binding area 21 and the display panel binding end 3 are located on opposite sides of the substrate 1, so that after the driver chip 8 and the display panel 20 are bound, the driver chip 8 and the display panel 20 are located on opposite sides of the substrate 1, so that the height of the display panel binding end 3 does not need to be too high, such as it can be less than the height of the driver chip, thereby reducing the difficulty of binding the display panel and improving the binding yield and reliability. In addition, the driver chip 8 and the display panel 20 are located on opposite sides of the substrate 1, which is conducive to the heat dissipation of the driver chip, and the heating of the driver chip will not affect the display panel, thereby improving the display unevenness problem of the display panel caused by the heating of the driver chip.
[0081] Specifically, Figure 5 As shown, the first circuit 2 covers the first surface 11 of the substrate 1. The first circuit 2 may cover the first surface 11 of the substrate 1 in whole or in part.

[0082] The display panel binding end 3 is arranged near one end of the substrate 1, for example, the display panel binding end 3 is arranged near the third surface 13 of the substrate 1.

In this way, after binding the driver chip 8 and the display panel 20, the driver chip 8 can be electrically connected to the display panel 20 through the first circuit 2, the first conductive part 4 and the display panel binding terminal 3. Among them, the first conductive part 4 and the display panel binding terminal 3 are spaced apart in the target direction A (i.e., the direction parallel to the second surface 12). The material of the first conductive part 4 is a conductive metal, such as tungsten, cobalt, copper, aluminum, etc.
[0084] In addition, when manufacturing the second circuit 5 in this embodiment, the second circuit 5 completely covers the second surface 12 of the substrate 1, and there is no need to etch the second circuit 5, so as to reduce the height of the display panel binding end 3, reduce the process difficulty of the display panel binding end 3, and simplify the manufacturing process of the second circuit 5.
[0085] Alternatively, if Figure 5 As shown, the flip chip structure 10 may further include a heat insulating layer 6, which is located on the side of the second circuit 5 away from the substrate 1. The heat insulating layer 6 may be provided in other areas of the second circuit 5 except the connection area with the display panel binding end 3 to isolate the heat generated by the second circuit 5, so as to prevent the heat generated by the second circuit 5 from affecting the display panel after the display panel is bound, thereby avoiding the problem of uneven display of the display panel caused by the heat dissipation of the second circuit 5.
[0086] Alternatively, if Figure 5 As shown, the flip chip structure 10 may further include a first protective layer 71, which is located on the side of the first circuit 2 away from the substrate 1.

All areas of the second circuit 5 except the connection area with the display panel binding end 3 may be covered with the second protective layer 72, so that the second protective layer 72 can protect the second circuit 5. The thermal insulation layer 6 may completely cover the second protective layer 72 to ensure that the heat generated by the second circuit 5 is effectively isolated.

The display panel binding end 3 and the first conductive part 4 are spaced apart in the target direction A, and the second surface 12 of the substrate 1 partially covers the second circuit 5, that is, the second circuit 5 is located between the display panel binding end 3 and the first conductive part 4, and the display panel binding end 3 is located on the side of the second circuit 5 away from the substrate 1, so that the other end of the first conductive part 4 is connected to the display panel binding end 3 through the second circuit 5. This embodiment can reduce the height of the display panel binding end 3 and reduce the process difficulty of the display panel binding end 3, while avoiding the first conductive part 4 from being exposed, thereby avoiding the first conductive part 4 from being short-circuited with other conductive structures.
[0095] like Fig. 9 As shown, the flip chip structure may further include a heat insulating layer 6, which is located on the side of the second circuit 5 away from the substrate 1. The heat insulating layer 6 may be provided in other areas of the second circuit 5 except the connection area with the display panel binding end 3 to isolate the heat generated by the second circuit 5, so as to prevent the heat generated by the second circuit 5 from affecting the display panel after the display panel is bound, thereby avoiding the problem of uneven display of the display panel caused by the heat dissipation of the second circuit 5.
[0096] The chip-on-film structure may further include a second protective layer 72, which is located between the second circuit 5 and the thermal insulation layer 6. All areas of the second circuit 5 except the connection area with the display panel binding end 3 may be covered with the second protective layer 72, so that the second protective layer 72 can protect the second circuit 5.
