Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of chip transfer technology, specifically to an adsorption structure for Micro LED chip transfer. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, in the field of Micro LED new displays, the following methods are commonly used to transfer Micro LED chips:

[0003] One method involves coating the organic insulating material of the stamp head with a layer of photosensitive organic material. This material has a structure similar to bristles, utilizing van der Waals forces. When the bristle structure comes into contact with the chip, the chip is adsorbed due to the intermolecular van der Waals forces. However, this structure has a significant drawback. Because the coating is a photosensitive organic material, when a laser passes through, the high temperature generated by the laser causes the material to easily fail. This limits the structure's lifespan to only 30 uses, greatly restricting its practical application value.

[0004] Another method uses electromagnetic adsorption. The specific structure involves creating a small window on the chip's surface during chip fabrication and depositing magnetic material within the window. Then, photolithographic lines are etched inside the stamp head, and the magnetic force is controlled by switching the circuit on and off, thus controlling the chip's adsorption. This method also has significant problems. First, depositing magnetic material on the chip increases the difficulty of chip fabrication, posing a challenge to the manufacturing process. Second, when adsorbed by electromagnetic force, the application of electricity charges the chip, and this charging process may damage the chip, affecting its performance and lifespan.

[0005] These existing technologies have many shortcomings in the Micro LED chip transfer process, including short lifespan, complex manufacturing processes, and potential damage to the chip. These problems severely restrict the development and application of Micro LED chip transfer technology and affect the promotion of this novel display technology. Therefore, developing a novel, efficient, and chip-free adsorption structure is of great significance for improving the efficiency and quality of Micro LED chip transfer.

[0006] To address the aforementioned issues, existing technologies urgently need improvement. Utility Model Content

[0010] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the adsorption hole includes an adsorption pattern disposed on the adsorption surface of the stamp adsorption head and a negative pressure hole connecting the adsorption pattern and the vent hole, and the stamp adsorption head absorbs the chip through the negative pressure generated by the adsorption pattern.

[0011] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the adsorption texture is formed by laser processing of grooves on the adsorption surface.

[0012] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the diameter of the negative pressure hole is smaller than the diameter of the vent hole.

[0013] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the stamp substrate and the stamp adsorption head are welded into an integral structure using infrared femtosecond laser.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, not all of them.

[0027] Reference Figures 1-4, an embodiment of the present utility model provides an adsorption structure for Micro LED chip transfer, including a mounting substrate 1, a stamp substrate 2 and a stamp adsorption head 3. An adsorption cavity 8 is provided inside the mounting substrate 1, and a threaded hole 9 is provided on the mounting substrate 1. The threaded hole 9 is communicated with the adsorption cavity 8, and the threaded hole 9 is used to install an air pipe joint, which is connected to an external vacuum device through the air pipe joint, so as to control the air pressure in the adsorption cavity 8. An adsorption hole is provided at the bottom of the stamp adsorption head 3, and a ventilation hole 7 communicated with the adsorption hole and the adsorption cavity 8 is provided on the stamp substrate 2. The ventilation hole 7 on the stamp substrate 2 is formed by laser processing.

[0028] Among them, through the adjustment of the external vacuum device, a negative pressure is formed in the adsorption cavity 8, and the negative pressure is transmitted to the adsorption hole through the ventilation hole 7, so as to realize the firm adsorption of the chip. Specifically, the adsorption hole provided at the bottom of the stamp adsorption head 3 can ensure the stability and reliability of the adsorption process. Compared with the photosensitive organic material and electromagnetic adsorption methods in the prior art, the adsorption structure of this embodiment avoids the problems of material failure and high manufacturing difficulty. Through the structural design of vacuum adsorption, not only the service life is extended, but also the electromagnetic damage to the chip is avoided. Therefore, the adsorption structure of this embodiment has obvious advantages in MicroLED chip transfer.

[0029] In specific applications, the external vacuum device is connected to the threaded hole 9 of the mounting substrate 1 through an air pipe joint to form a negative pressure adsorption environment. The adsorption hole at the bottom of the stamp adsorption head 3 is communicated with the adsorption cavity 8 through the ventilation hole 7 to ensure the effective transmission of negative pressure, so as to realize the effective adsorption of the chip and improve the efficiency and reliability of Micro LED chip transfer.

[0030] In this embodiment, referring to Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the adsorption hole includes an adsorption pattern 6 and a negative pressure hole 5. The adsorption pattern 6 is formed by a groove laser-processed on the adsorption surface 4. The adsorption pattern 6 has a structure in the shape of a Chinese character 'ri'. The negative pressure hole 5 communicates the adsorption pattern 6 with the ventilation hole 7. When the external vacuum device is connected to the adsorption cavity 8 through an air pipe joint, a negative pressure can be generated in the adsorption pattern 6 to suck the chip. The negative pressure in the adsorption pattern 6 is stable and the adsorption force is uniform, which improves the adsorption effect of the stamp adsorption head 3 on the Micro LED chip and effectively ensures that the Micro LED chip will not be damaged.

[0031] In the above embodiments, the adsorption texture 6 can be formed using various laser processing techniques, such as laser etching and laser cutting. These techniques can precisely form the required grooves on the adsorption surface 4. The depth and width of the grooves can be adjusted according to actual needs to ensure the best adsorption effect. The grooves formed by laser processing have high precision and high consistency, which can significantly improve the adsorption effect of the adsorption surface 4 on the Micro LED chip.

[0032] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 The stamp substrate 2 and the stamp adsorption head 3 are welded into an integral structure using infrared femtosecond laser welding. The diameter of the negative pressure hole 5 is smaller than that of the vent hole 7, so that the laser can enter through the vent hole 7 to weld the connection between the stamp substrate 2 and the stamp adsorption head 3. Infrared femtosecond laser welding technology can achieve high-precision welding effect and ensure a firm connection between the stamp substrate 2 and the stamp adsorption head 3. Specifically, infrared femtosecond laser welding technology forms a tiny molten pool on the material surface through an ultra-short pulse laser, thereby achieving material welding. It has the advantages of small heat-affected zone, high welding precision, and fast welding speed, which can effectively improve the service life of the stamp adsorption head 3.

[0033] Furthermore, the top of the mounting substrate 1 is provided with a first mounting hole, in which a transparent sealing plate 10 is embedded. After the transparent sealing plate 10 is embedded in the first mounting hole, it ensures the sealing of the adsorption cavity 8. In this way, the infrared femtosecond laser can pass through the transparent sealing plate 10 to realize the welding work between the stamp substrate 2 and the stamp adsorption head 3.

[0034] In some embodiments, the transparent sealing plate 10 and the stamp substrate 2 are made of a transparent brittle material. This material has good light transmittance and mechanical strength, facilitating the penetration of infrared femtosecond lasers, while not failing due to the high temperature of the laser. Specifically, the transparent sealing plate 10 and the stamp substrate 2 can be made of transparent brittle materials such as glass, quartz, calcium fluoride, or arsenic sulfide. These materials have excellent optical properties and mechanical strength, and can withstand the high temperatures during laser processing. In addition, the transparent sealing plate 10 is coated with a high-transmittance film, further improving its light transmittance and durability. The back side of the stamp adsorption head 3 is also coated with a high-transmittance film to improve light transmittance, reduce glare and reflection, ensure the smooth progress of laser welding processing, and improve welding quality.

[0035] In some embodiments, the bottom of the mounting substrate 1 is provided with a second mounting hole, the stamp substrate 2 is embedded in the second mounting hole, and the stamp substrate 2 is embedded in the second mounting hole to ensure the sealing of the adsorption cavity 8. This can ensure the tight connection between the stamp substrate 2 and the mounting substrate 1, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the entire adsorption structure.

[0036] The above is a detailed description of the preferred embodiments of the present utility model. However, the present utility model is not limited to the described embodiments. Those skilled in the art can make various equivalent modifications or substitutions without departing from the spirit of the present utility model. All such equivalent modifications or substitutions are included within the scope defined by the claims of this application.
