Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of Micro-LED technology, and in particular relates to a Micro-LED transfer laser vision module. Background Art

[0002] Micro-LED laser transfer technology is a key technology used to transfer Micro-LED chips from a growth substrate to a target substrate. In the production process of Micro-LED, mass transfer is a key step, because Micro-LED chips have high density and small size, and traditional transfer methods are difficult to meet the high-precision transfer requirements. Laser mass transfer technology can achieve high-precision and high-efficiency Micro-LED chip transfer, greatly improving production efficiency and product quality. Laser mass transfer technology mainly includes two steps: laser lift-off and laser transfer. Laser lift-off is the process of separating the Micro-LED chip from the native sapphire substrate, and the GaN epitaxial layer is separated from the sapphire substrate by the action of laser. Laser transfer is the process of transferring the peeled chip from the temporary substrate to the backplane, and the chip is transferred from the stamp to the receiving substrate by laser ablation or vaporization.

[0003] The Chinese patent document with publication number CN109768129B discloses a transfer device for Micro LED chips, including a transfer unit, a laser stripping unit, a pickup head switching unit, a visual inspection unit, a repair unit, and a bracket as the installation basis of the above units. The transfer device for Micro LED chips, wherein the transfer unit can realize the pickup and transfer of Micro LED chips; the laser stripping unit can realize the stripping of Micro LED chips from substrates; the top-view fixed camera can pre-judge the size, quantity, and position of the Micro LED chips to be transferred, and realize the rough positioning of the pickup head; the pickup head switching unit can automatically select and switch the pickup head to realize the pickup and transfer of Micro LED chips of different sizes and quantities; the top-view motion camera can realize the precise positioning of the pickup head; the visual inspection camera is used to detect whether the Micro LED chip works normally after transfer; the repair unit is used to repair the Micro LED chip that does not work normally, and finally realize the transfer of Micro LED chips, and obtain the effect of fast and accurate transfer of Micro LED chips.

[0004] When using the laser transfer equipment for the first time, or for different growth substrates or different types of Micro-LED chips, the height of the visual module needs to be adjusted to achieve the best imaging quality. At the same time, the height of the laser also needs to be adjusted to control the laser energy distribution, which helps to improve the transfer quality. At the same time, due to the addition of the adjustment function, the vibration generated by the movement of the motion mechanism will be transmitted to the laser vision part, which will cause a certain degree of jitter to the laser and the visual module. In the long run, its processing accuracy and service life will be significantly affected. Utility Model Content
