[0001] The present specification relates to a display device and a manufacturing method of a display device, and more particularly to a display device using an LED (Light Emitting Diode) and a manufacturing method of a display device. [Background technology]

[0002] Display devices used in computer monitors, TVs, mobile phones, etc. include organic light emitting displays (OLEDs), which emit light themselves, and liquid crystal displays (LCDs), which require a separate light source.

[0004] In recent years, displays that include LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) have been attracting attention as the next generation of display devices. LEDs are made of inorganic materials, not organic materials, and therefore have excellent reliability and a longer lifespan than LCDs and OLEDs. LEDs not only light up quickly, but also have excellent luminous efficiency, strong impact resistance, excellent stability, and can display high brightness images.

Thus, the light-emitting elements transferred from the donor can be fixed by disposing the light-emitting elements on the adhesive layer.

[0012] A method for manufacturing a display device according to an embodiment of the present specification includes a step of self-assembling a plurality of light emitting elements on an assembly substrate, a step of transferring the plurality of light emitting elements self-assembled on the assembly substrate to a donor, and a step of transferring the plurality of light emitting elements of the donor onto an adhesive layer of a display panel, wherein the step of self-assembling the plurality of light emitting elements includes a step of applying a voltage to a plurality of assembly electrodes to form an electric field, and self-assembling the plurality of light emitting elements on the plurality of assembly electrodes in the electric field. Thus, the light emitting elements can be self-assembled using the electric field, and the process of aligning the light emitting elements can be simplified and alignment errors can be minimized.

[0021] The advantages and features of the present specification, and the methods for achieving them, will become apparent from the following detailed description of the embodiments in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present specification is not limited to the embodiments disclosed below, and may be implemented in various different forms. The embodiments are provided solely for the purpose of making the disclosure of the present specification complete and fully conveying the scope of the specification to those skilled in the art to which the present specification pertains.

[0022] The shapes, areas, ratios, angles, numbers, etc. disclosed in the drawings for explaining the embodiments of this specification are illustrative, and the specification is not limited to the matters illustrated. The same reference symbols refer to the same components throughout the specification. In addition, in explaining this specification, if it is determined that a specific description of related known technology may unnecessarily cloud the gist of this specification, the detailed description will be omitted. When "includes," "has," "is made," etc. are used in this specification, other parts may be added since "only" is not used. When a component is expressed in the singular, it includes the case where it includes a plural, unless otherwise expressly stated.

[0023] When interpreting elements, they are interpreted as including a margin of error even if there is no other explicit description.

[0024] When describing a positional relationship, for example when describing the positional relationship of two parts using "on top of," "at the top of," "at the bottom of," "next to," etc., one or more other parts may be located between the two parts, so long as "immediately" or "directly" is not used.

[0025] When an element or layer is referred to as "on" another element or layer, this includes the case where the element or layer is directly on top of the other element, or has other layers or elements interposed therebetween.

[0026] In addition, although the terms "first", "second" and the like are used to describe various components, these components are not limited by these terms. These terms are used merely to distinguish one component from another. Therefore, the first component referred to below may be the second component within the technical concept of this specification.

[0027] Like reference numbers refer to like elements throughout the specification.

[0028] The area and thickness of each component shown in the drawings are shown for convenience of explanation, and the present specification is not necessarily limited to the area and thickness of the components shown.

[0029] The features of the various embodiments of this specification may be combined or combined with each other, either partially or in whole, and may be technically interlocked and driven in various ways, and each embodiment may be implemented independently of each other or may be implemented together in a related relationship.

[0030] In the following, the present specification will be described with reference to the drawings.

[0031] 1 is a schematic diagram of a display device according to an embodiment of the present specification, in which only a display panel PN, a gate driver GD, a data driver DD, and a timing controller TC are shown among various components of a display device 100 for ease of explanation.

[0032] Referring to FIG. 1, a display device 100 includes a display panel PN including a plurality of sub-pixels SP, a gate driver GD and a data driver DD for supplying various signals to the display panel PN, and a timing controller TC for controlling the gate driver GD and the data driver DD.

[0033] The gate driver GD supplies a plurality of scan signals to a plurality of scan lines SL in response to a plurality of gate control signals provided from a timing controller TC. Although one gate driver GD is shown to be disposed at a distance from one side of the display panel PN in FIG. 1, the number and arrangement of the gate driver GD are not limited thereto.

[0034] The data driver DD converts image data input from the timing controller TC into data voltages using a reference gamma voltage in response to a plurality of data control signals provided from the timing controller TC, and supplies the converted data voltages to a plurality of data lines DL.

[0035] The timing controller TC aligns externally input image data and supplies it to the data driver DD. The timing controller TC can generate gate control signals and data control signals using externally input synchronous signals, such as a dot clock signal, a data enable signal, and a horizontal / vertical synchronous signal. The timing controller TC can then supply the generated gate control signals and data control signals to the gate driver GD and the data driver DD, respectively, to control the gate driver GD and the data driver DD.

[0036] The display panel PN is configured to display an image to a user and includes a plurality of sub-pixels SP. A plurality of scan lines SL and a plurality of data lines DL cross each other in the display panel PN, and each of the sub-pixels SP is connected to the scan lines SL and the data lines DL. In addition, although not shown in the drawing, each of the sub-pixels SP may be connected to a high potential power supply line, a low potential power supply line, a reference line, etc.

[0037] A display area AA and a non-display area NA surrounding the display area AA can be defined in the display panel PN.

[0038] The display area AA is an area where an image is displayed on the display device 100. A plurality of sub-pixels SP constituting a plurality of pixels PX and a circuit for driving the plurality of sub-pixels SP may be arranged in the display area AA. The plurality of sub-pixels SP are the minimum units constituting the display area AA, and n sub-pixels SP may form one pixel PX. A light-emitting element and a thin film transistor for driving the light-emitting element may be arranged in each of the plurality of sub-pixels SP. The plurality of light-emitting elements may be defined differently depending on the type of the display panel PN. For example, when the display panel PN is an inorganic light-emitting display panel, the light-emitting element may be an LED (Light-emitting Diode) or a micro LED (Micro Light-emitting Diode).

[0039] In the display area AA, a plurality of signal lines are arranged to transmit various signals to the sub-pixels SP. For example, the signal lines may include a plurality of data lines DL to supply data voltages to the sub-pixels SP, and a plurality of scan lines SL to supply gate voltages to the sub-pixels SP. The scan lines SL may extend in one direction from the display area AA to be connected to the sub-pixels SP, and the data lines DL may extend in a direction different from the one direction from the display area AA to be connected to the sub-pixels SP. In addition, low potential power lines, high potential power lines, etc. may be further arranged in the display area AA, but are not limited thereto.

[0040] The non-display area NA is an area where an image is not displayed, and may be defined as an area extending from the display area AA. Link wiring and pad electrodes for transmitting signals to the sub-pixels SP of the display area AA, driving ICs such as gate driver ICs and data driver ICs, etc. may be arranged in the non-display area NA. The non-display area NA may be located on the rear surface of the display panel PN, i.e., on a surface where the sub-pixels SP are not present, or may be omitted, and is not limited to what is shown in the drawings.

[0041] Meanwhile, drivers such as the gate driver GD, the data driver DD, and the timing controller TC can be connected to the display panel PN in various ways. For example, the gate driver GD can be mounted in the non-display area NA in a GIP (Gate In Panel) manner, or can be mounted between a plurality of sub-pixels SP in the display area AA in a GIA (Gate In Active Area) manner. For example, the data driver DD and the timing controller TC can be formed on a separate flexible film and a printed circuit board, and electrically connected to the display panel PN by bonding the flexible film and the printed circuit board to pad electrodes formed in the non-display area NA of the display panel PN. If the gate driver GD is mounted in the GIP manner and the data driver DD and the timing controller TC transmit signals to the display panel PN through pad electrodes in the non-display area NA, it is necessary to secure an area in the non-display area NA for disposing the gate driver GD and the pad electrodes, and the bezel may increase.

[0042] Alternatively, if the gate driver GD is mounted inside the display area AA in the GIA manner, and a side wiring SRL is formed to connect the signal wiring on the front side of the display panel PN to the pad electrode on the rear side of the display panel PN, and a flexible film and a printed circuit board are bonded to the rear side of the display panel PN, the non-display area NA on the front side of the display panel PN can be minimized. That is, if the gate driver GD, the data driver DD, and the timing controller TC are connected to the display panel PN in the above manner, it may be possible to realize a zero bezel, in which there is substantially no bezel. For more detailed description, refer to Figures 2a and 2b.

[0043] Figure 2a is a partial cross-sectional view of a display device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, and Figure 2b is a perspective view of a tiling display device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0044] A plurality of pad electrodes for transmitting various signals to the sub-pixels SP are arranged in the non-display area NA of the display panel PN. For example, a first pad electrode PAD1 for transmitting signals to the sub-pixels SP is arranged in the non-display area NA on the front side of the display panel PN, and a second pad electrode PAD2 electrically connected to driving components such as a flexible film and a printed circuit board is arranged in the non-display area NA on the rear side of the display panel PN.

[0045] In this case, although not shown in the drawing, various signal wirings connected to multiple subpixels SP, such as scan wirings SL and data wirings DL, may extend from the display area AA to the non-display area NA and be electrically connected to the first pad electrode PAD1.

[0046] Also, side wirings SRL are arranged along the side surfaces of the display panel PN. The side wirings SRL can electrically connect a first pad electrode PAD1 on the front surface of the display panel PN to a second pad electrode PAD2 on the rear surface of the display panel PN. Thus, signals from driving components on the rear surface of the display panel PN can be transmitted to the sub-pixels SP through the second pad electrode PAD2, the side wirings SRL and the first pad electrode PAD1. Thus, a signal transmission path is formed from the front surface to the side surfaces and rear surface of the display panel PN, thereby minimizing the area of ​​the non-display region NA of the display panel PN.

[0047] 2b, a tiling display device TD having a large screen can be configured by connecting a plurality of display devices 100. In this case, as shown in FIG 2a, when a tiling display device TD is configured using a display device 100 with a minimized bezel, a seam area between the display devices 100 where no image is displayed can be minimized, thereby improving display quality.

[0048] For example, a plurality of sub-pixels SP may form one pixel PX, and a distance D1 between an outermost pixel PX of one display device 100 and an outermost pixel PX of another adjacent display device 100 may be configured to be the same as a distance D1 between pixels PX within one display device 100. Therefore, the distance between pixels PX may be configured to be constant between display devices 100, thereby minimizing seam regions.

[0049] However, FIG. 2a and FIG. 2b are merely illustrative, and the display device 100 according to an embodiment of the present specification may be a general display device having a bezel, and is not limited thereto.

[0050] Fig. 3 is an enlarged plan view of a display device according to an embodiment of the present specification. Fig. 4 is a cross-sectional view of a display device according to an embodiment of the present specification. Figs. 5a to 5c are diagrams illustrating a plurality of light-emitting elements of a display device according to an embodiment of the present specification.

[0051] First, referring to FIG. 3, the display panel PN includes a plurality of pixels PX, each of which includes a plurality of sub-pixels SP. Each of the sub-pixels SP includes a light-emitting element LED and a pixel circuit, and can independently emit light. One pixel PX can include one or more first sub-pixels SP1, one or more second sub-pixels SP2, and one or more third sub-pixels SP3. For example, one pixel PX can include two first sub-pixels SP1, two second sub-pixels SP2, and two third sub-pixels SP3. In this case, the first sub-pixel SP1 can be a red sub-pixel, the second sub-pixel SP can be a green sub-pixel, and the third sub-pixel SP3 can be a blue sub-pixel, but is not limited thereto.

[0052] Next, referring to FIG. 4, each of the sub-pixels SP of the display panel PN of the display device 100 according to one embodiment of this specification includes a substrate 110, a buffer layer 111, a gate insulating layer 112, a first interlayer insulating layer 113, a second interlayer insulating layer 114, a first planarization layer 115, an adhesive layer 116, a second planarization layer 117, a third planarization layer 118, a driving transistor DT, a light-emitting element LED, a plurality of reflective electrodes RE, a plurality of connecting electrodes CE, a light-shielding layer LS and an auxiliary electrode LE.

[0053] First, the substrate 110 is a component for supporting various components included in the display device 100 and may be made of an insulating material. For example, the substrate 110 may be made of glass, resin, etc. The substrate 110 may also be made of a material including a polymer or plastic and having flexibility.

[0054] A light blocking layer LS is disposed in each of the sub-pixels SP on the substrate 110. The light blocking layer LS blocks light incident on an active layer ACT of a driving transistor DT (to be described later) under the substrate 110. The light blocking layer LS blocks light incident on the active layer ACT of the driving transistor DT, thereby minimizing leakage current.

[0055] A buffer layer 111 is disposed on the substrate 110 and the light-shielding layer LS. The buffer layer 111 can reduce the penetration of moisture or impurities through the substrate 110. The buffer layer 111 can be composed of, for example, a single layer or multiple layers of silicon oxide (SiOx) or silicon nitride (SiNx), but is not limited thereto. However, the buffer layer 111 may be omitted depending on the type of substrate 110 or the type of transistor, and is not limited thereto.

[0056] The drive transistor DT is disposed on the buffer layer 111. The drive transistor DT includes an active layer ACT, a gate electrode GE, a source electrode SE, and a drain electrode DE.

[0057] An active layer ACT is disposed on the buffer layer 111. The active layer ACT may be made of a semiconductor material such as, but not limited to, an oxide semiconductor, amorphous silicon, or polysilicon.

[0058] A gate insulating layer 112 is disposed on the active layer ACT. The gate insulating layer 112 is an insulating layer for insulating the active layer ACT from the gate electrode GE, and may be composed of a single layer or multiple layers of silicon oxide (SiOx) or silicon nitride (SiNx), but is not limited thereto.

[0059] A gate electrode GE is disposed on the gate insulating layer 112. The gate electrode GE may be made of a conductive material such as, but not limited to, copper (Cu), aluminum (Al), molybdenum (Mo), nickel (Ni), titanium (Ti), chromium (Cr), or an alloy thereof.

[0060] A first interlayer insulating layer 113 and a second interlayer insulating layer 114 are disposed on the gate electrode GE. Contact holes are formed in the first interlayer insulating layer 113 and the second interlayer insulating layer 114 for connecting the source electrode SE and the drain electrode DE to the active layer ACT, respectively. The first interlayer insulating layer 113 and the second interlayer insulating layer 114 are insulating layers for protecting the components below the first interlayer insulating layer 113 and the second interlayer insulating layer 114, and may be formed of a single layer or multiple layers of silicon oxide (SiOx) or silicon nitride (SiNx), but are not limited thereto.

[0061] A source electrode SE and a drain electrode DE electrically connected to the active layer ACT are disposed on the second interlayer insulating layer 114. The source electrode SE and the drain electrode DE may be made of a conductive material, for example, but not limited to, copper (Cu), aluminum (Al), molybdenum (Mo), nickel (Ni), titanium (Ti), chromium (Cr), or an alloy thereof.

[0062] Meanwhile, in this specification, it has been described that the first interlayer insulating layer 113 and the second interlayer insulating layer 114, i.e., multiple insulating layers, are arranged between the gate electrode GE and the source electrode SE and drain electrode DE, but only one insulating layer may be arranged between the gate electrode GE and the source electrode SE and drain electrode DE, and the present invention is not limited to this.

[0063] Furthermore, as shown in the drawing, when multiple insulating layers such as a first interlayer insulating layer 113 and a second interlayer insulating layer 114 are arranged between the gate electrode GE and the source electrode SE and drain electrode DE, an electrode may be further formed between the first interlayer insulating layer 113 and the second interlayer insulating layer 114, and the further formed electrode may form a capacitor with other components arranged under the first interlayer insulating layer 113 or on the top of the second interlayer insulating layer 114.

[0064] An auxiliary electrode LE is disposed on the gate insulating layer 112. The auxiliary electrode LE is an electrode that electrically connects the light-shielding layer LS under the buffer layer 111 to one of the source electrode SE and the drain electrode DE on the second interlayer insulating layer 114. For example, the light-shielding layer LS is electrically connected to one of the source electrode SE or the drain electrode DE through the auxiliary electrode LE and does not operate as a floating gate, so that it is possible to minimize a threshold voltage fluctuation of the driving transistor DT caused by the floating light-shielding layer LS. Although the light-shielding layer LS is shown to be connected to the source electrode SE in the drawings, the light-shielding layer LS may be connected to the drain electrode DE and is not limited thereto.

[0065] A power supply wiring VDD is disposed on the second interlayer insulating layer 114. The power supply wiring VDD is electrically connected to the light emitting element LED together with the driving transistor DT to cause the light emitting element LED to emit light. The power supply wiring VDD may be made of a conductive material, for example, but is not limited to, copper (Cu), aluminum (Al), molybdenum (Mo), nickel (Ni), titanium (Ti), chromium (Cr), or an alloy thereof.

[0066] A first planarization layer 115 is disposed on the driving transistor DT and the power supply line VDD.

The first planarization layer 115 can be configured as a single layer or multiple layers and can be made of, for example, a photoresist or an acrylic organic material, but is not limited thereto.

[0067] A plurality of reflective electrodes RE spaced apart from each other are disposed on the first planarization layer 115. The plurality of reflective electrodes RE electrically connect the light emitting element LED to the power supply line VDD and the driving transistor DT, and at the same time function as a reflector that reflects light emitted from the light emitting element LED toward the upper portion of the light emitting element LED. The plurality of reflective electrodes RE are formed of a conductive material with excellent reflective properties, and can reflect the light emitted from the light emitting element LED toward the upper portion of the light emitting element LED.

[0068] The plurality of reflective electrodes RE include a first reflective electrode RE1 and a second reflective electrode RE2. The first reflective electrode RE1 can electrically connect the driving transistor DT and the light emitting element LED. The first reflective electrode RE1 can be connected to the source electrode SE or the drain electrode DE of the driving transistor DT through a contact hole formed in the first planarization layer 115. The first reflective electrode RE1 can be electrically connected to a first electrode and a first semiconductor layer of the light emitting element LED through a first connection electrode CE1 described later.

[0069] The second reflective electrode RE2 can electrically connect the power supply wiring VDD and the light emitting element LED. The second reflective electrode RE2 is connected to the power supply wiring VDD through a contact hole formed in the first planarization layer 115, and can be electrically connected to the p-type electrodes 125, 135, 145 and the p-type semiconductor layers 123, 133, 143 of the light emitting element LED through a second connection electrode CE2 described later.

[0070] An adhesive layer 116 is disposed on the plurality of reflective electrodes RE. The adhesive layer 116 is coated on the front surface of the substrate 110 to fix the light emitting element LED disposed on the adhesive layer 116. The adhesive layer 116 may be selected from any one of, for example, an adhesive polymer, an epoxy resist, a UV resin, a polyimide series, an acrylate series, a urethane series, and Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), but is not limited thereto.

[0071] A plurality of light-emitting elements LED are disposed in each of the sub-pixels SP on the adhesive layer 116. The light-emitting elements LED are elements that emit light by current and may include light-emitting elements LED that emit red light, green light, blue light, etc., and a combination of these may realize light of various hues including white. For example, the light-emitting elements LED may be LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) or micro LEDs, but are not limited thereto.

[0072] 5a to 5c, the plurality of light-emitting elements LED includes a first light-emitting element 120, a second light-emitting element 130, and a third light-emitting element 140. The first light-emitting element 120 may be disposed in the first sub-pixel SP1, the second light-emitting element 130 may be disposed in the second sub-pixel SP2, and the third light-emitting element 140 may be disposed in the third sub-pixel SP3.

For example, the third n-type electrode 144 may be disposed adjacent to both ends of the upper surface of the third n-type semiconductor layer 141 in the long axis direction in the upper surface of the third n-type semiconductor layer 141 having an elliptical planar shape. The third n-type electrode 144 may be made of a conductive material, for example, a transparent conductive material such as ITO (Indium Tin Oxide) or IZO (Indium Zinc Oxide), or an opaque conductive material such as titanium (Ti), gold (Au), silver (Ag), copper (Cu), or an alloy thereof, but is not limited thereto.

[0089] The third p-type electrode 145 is disposed on the third p-type semiconductor layer 143.

[0090] Next, a third sealing film 146 is disposed to surround the third n-type semiconductor layer 141, the third light emitting layer 142, the third p-type semiconductor layer 143, the third n-type electrode 144, and the third p-type electrode 145. The third sealing film 146 is made of an insulating material and can protect the third n-type semiconductor layer 141, the third light emitting layer 142, and the third p-type semiconductor layer 143. Contact holes exposing the third n-type electrode 144 and the third p-type electrode 145 are formed in the third sealing film 146, and the first connection electrode CE1 and the second connection electrode CE2 can be electrically connected to the third n-type electrode 144 and the third p-type electrode 145.

[0091] Meanwhile, the first light emitting element 120, the second light emitting element 130, and the third light emitting element 140 may be formed to have different shapes. Each of the light emitting elements LED commonly includes n-type semiconductor layers 121, 131, 141, light emitting layers 122, 132, 142, p-type semiconductor layers 123, 133, 143, n-type electrodes 124, 134, 144, p-type electrodes 125, 135, 145, and sealing films 126, 136, 146, but may be formed so that some of the components have different shapes.

[0092] For example, the first n-type semiconductor layer 121, the first light emitting layer 122, the second p-type semiconductor layer 143, the first n-type electrode 124, and the first p-type electrode 125 of the first light emitting element 120 may all have a circular planar shape. Among them, the first n-type electrode 124 may be disposed around the first n-type semiconductor layer 121 to form a circular electrode having a closed loop shape. The first p-type electrode 125 may have a shape corresponding to the upper surface of the first p-type semiconductor layer 123.

[0093] For example, the second n-type semiconductor layer 131, the second p-type semiconductor layer 143, and the second p-type electrode 135 of the second light emitting element 130 may have an elliptical planar shape. At this time, the long axis direction of the second n-type semiconductor layer 131 may be configured to be different from the long axis direction of the second p-type semiconductor layer 143. For example, if the second n-type semiconductor layer 131 has an elliptical shape with a long axis in the horizontal direction, the second p-type semiconductor layer 143 may have an elliptical shape with a long axis in the vertical direction. Then, the second n-type electrode 134 may be disposed on both side ends of the second n-type semiconductor layer 131 in the long axis direction in the upper surface of the second n-type semiconductor layer 131. Thus, the multiple second n-type electrodes 134 disposed on both side ends of the second n-type semiconductor layer 131 may be formed in a semicircular shape. Finally, the second p-type electrode 135 may be formed in an elliptical shape similar to the upper surface of the second p-type semiconductor layer 143.

[0094] For example, the third n-type semiconductor layer 141, the third p-type semiconductor layer 143, and the third p-type electrode 145 of the third light emitting element 140 may have an elliptical planar shape. Unlike the second light emitting element 130, in the third light emitting element 140, the long axis direction of the third n-type semiconductor layer 141 and the long axis direction of the third p-type semiconductor layer 143 may be configured to be the same. The third n-type electrodes 144 may be disposed on both side ends of the third n-type semiconductor layer 141 in the long axis direction in the upper surface of the third n-type semiconductor layer 141, and may be formed in a semicircular shape. And the third p-type electrode 145 may be formed in an elliptical shape like the upper surface of the third p-type semiconductor layer 143.

[0095] In the display device 100 according to an embodiment of the present specification, the first light emitting element 120, the second light emitting element 130, and the third light emitting element 140 may be configured to have different shapes to separate the plurality of light emitting elements LED. For example, when the light emitting elements LED are self-assembled, the plurality of light emitting elements LED may be formed to have different shapes to be self-assembled at positions corresponding to the plurality of sub-pixels SP. However, the shapes of the plurality of light emitting elements LED are merely examples and are not limited thereto.

[0096] A second planarization layer 117 and a third planarization layer 118 are disposed on the adhesive layer 116. The second planarization layer 117 may be overlapped with a portion of the side surface of the light emitting elements LED to fix and protect the light emitting elements LED. Specifically, in FIG. 4, the first sealing film 126 is illustrated as surrounding all the side surfaces of the first n-type semiconductor layer 121, but a portion of the side surface of the first n-type semiconductor layer 121 may be exposed from the first sealing film 126. The light emitting element LED manufactured on the wafer may be separated from the wafer and transferred to the display panel PN. However, a portion of the sealing films 126, 136, and 146 may be peeled off during the process of separating the light emitting element LED from the wafer. For example, a portion of the first sealing film 126 adjacent to the lower edge of the first n-type semiconductor layer 121 of the first light emitting element 120 may be peeled off during the process of separating the first light emitting element 120 from the wafer, thereby exposing a portion of the lower side surface of the first n-type semiconductor layer 121 to the outside. The second light emitting element 130 and the third light emitting element 140 may also have portions of the encapsulation films 136, 146 peeled off to expose portions of the side surfaces of the n-type semiconductor layers 131, 141. However, even if the lower portion of the first light emitting element 120 is exposed from the first encapsulation film 126, the first connection electrode CE1 and the second connection electrode CE2 are formed after the second planarization layer 117 covering the side surfaces of the first n-type semiconductor layer 121 is formed, so that short circuit defects can be minimized.

[0097] In addition, the third planarization layer 118 is formed to cover the second planarization layer 117 and an upper portion of the light emitting element LED, and contact holes exposing the n-type electrodes 124, 134, 144 and the p-type electrodes 125, 135, 145 of the light emitting element LED may be formed therein. The n-type electrodes 124, 134, 144 and the p-type electrodes 125, 135, 145 of the light emitting element LED are exposed from the third planarization layer 118, and the third planarization layer 118 is partially disposed in the regions between the n-type electrodes 124, 134, 144 and the p-type electrodes 125, 135, 145, thereby minimizing short circuit defects.

[0098] The second planarization layer 117 and the third planarization layer 118 may be configured as a single layer or multiple layers and may be made of, for example, photoresist or an acrylic organic material, but are not limited thereto. Meanwhile, in the present specification, the second planarization layer 117 and the third planarization layer 118 are described as being disposed, but the planarization layer may be configured as a single layer, but are not limited thereto.

[0099] A plurality of connection electrodes CE are disposed on the third planarization layer 118. The plurality of connection electrodes CE include a plurality of first connection electrodes CE1 and second connection electrodes CE2.

[0100] The first connection electrode CE1 is an electrode disposed in each of the sub-pixels SP to electrically connect the light emitting element LED and the driving transistor DT. The first connection electrode CE1 may be connected to the first reflective electrode RE1 through a contact hole formed in the third planarization layer 118, the second planarization layer 117, and the adhesive layer 116. Thus, the first connection electrode CE1 may be electrically connected to one of the source electrode SE and the drain electrode DE of the driving transistor DT through the first reflective electrode RE1. The first connection electrode CE1 may be connected to the n-type electrodes 124, 134, and 144 of each of the light emitting elements LED through a contact hole formed in the third planarization layer 118. Thus, the first connection electrode CE1 may electrically connect the driving transistor DT to the n-type electrodes 124, 134, and 144 and the n-type semiconductor layers 121, 131, and 141 of the light emitting elements LED.

[0101] The second connection electrode CE2 is an electrode for electrically connecting the light-emitting element LED and the power supply wiring VDD. The second connection electrode CE2 can be connected to the second reflective electrode RE2 through contact holes formed in the third planarization layer 118, the second planarization layer 117, and the adhesive layer 116. Therefore, the second connection electrode CE2 can be electrically connected to the power supply wiring VDD through the second reflective electrode RE2. And, the second connection electrode CE2 can be connected to the p-type electrodes 125, 135, and 145 of the plurality of light-emitting elements LED through contact holes formed in the third planarization layer 118. Therefore, the second connection electrode CE2 can electrically connect the power supply wiring VDD to the p-type electrodes 125, 135, and 145 and the p-type semiconductor layers 123, 133, and 143 of the plurality of light-emitting elements LED.

[0102] Meanwhile, the first connection electrode CE1 connecting the driving transistor DT and the light-emitting element LED arranged in each of the subpixels SP may be arranged individually in each of the subpixels SP. And the second connection electrodes CE2 arranged in each of the subpixels SP connecting the power supply wiring VDD and the light-emitting element LED may be connected to each other. That is, since the power supply voltage of the power supply wiring VDD is commonly applied to all of the light-emitting elements LED of the subpixels SP, one second connection electrode CE2 may be arranged over the entire subpixels SP.

[0103] 3 and 4, in each of the sub-pixels SP, the first connection electrode CE1 may be formed with a concave portion corresponding to the p-electrodes 125, 135, 145 so as to be connected only to the n-electrodes 124, 134, 144 of the light-emitting element LED and not to the p-electrodes 125, 135, 145. The concave portion of the first connection electrode CE1 may overlap the p-electrodes 125, 135, 145 of each of the light-emitting element LEDs. The second connection electrode CE2 may extend convexly inside the concave portion of the first connection electrode CE1 and be electrically connected to the p-electrodes 125, 135, 145 of each of the light-emitting element LEDs. The convex portion of the second connection electrode CE2 may overlap the p-electrodes 125, 135, 145 of each of the light-emitting element LEDs.

[0104] Meanwhile, the display device 100 according to one embodiment of the present specification can be manufactured by self-assembling a plurality of light-emitting elements LED on a separate assembly substrate 200, and then transferring the self-assembled light-emitting elements LED from the assembly substrate 200 to the display panel PN using a donor 300.

[0105] Hereinafter, with reference to FIGS. 6 to 11b, an assembly substrate 200 and a donor 300 according to an embodiment of the present specification will be described first, and then a manufacturing method of a display device 100 according to an embodiment of the present specification will be described.

[0106] Fig. 6 is a plan view of an assembly substrate according to an embodiment of the present specification. Fig. 7a is an enlarged plan view of an assembly region of an assembly substrate of a display device according to an embodiment of the present specification. Fig. 7b is a cross-sectional view taken along line VIIb-VIIb' of Fig. 7a. Fig. 8 is an enlarged plan view of a first align region of an assembly substrate of a display device according to an embodiment of the present specification.

[0107] 6, the assembly substrate 200 includes an assembly region 200A and an outer region 200B. The assembly region 200A is a region where a plurality of light-emitting elements LED are self-assembled, and a plurality of assembly wirings AL and a plurality of assembly electrodes AE for self-assembling the light-emitting elements LED are arranged in the assembly region 200A. The outer region 200B is a remaining region excluding the assembly region 200A, and a plurality of assembly pads and a plurality of align keys AK, etc. may be arranged in the assembly region 200A.

[0108] 6 to 7c, the assembly substrate 200 includes an assembly substrate 210, a plurality of assembly wirings AL, a plurality of assembly electrodes AE, a plurality of assembly pads, an organic layer OL, and an assembly insulating layer IL.

[0109] First, referring to FIGS. 7a and 7b, a plurality of assembly wirings AL and a plurality of assembly electrodes AE are disposed on an assembly substrate 210 in an assembly area 200A.

[0110] The plurality of assembly wirings AL include a plurality of first assembly wirings AL1 and a plurality of second assembly wirings AL2. The plurality of first assembly wirings AL1 and the plurality of second assembly wirings AL2 may be arranged at regular intervals. The plurality of first assembly wirings AL1 and the plurality of second assembly wirings AL2 may be arranged alternately. Different voltages are applied to the plurality of first assembly wirings AL1 and the plurality of second assembly wirings AL2, and an electric field may be formed between the plurality of first assembly wirings AL1 and the plurality of second assembly wirings AL2. The plurality of light-emitting elements LED may be self-assembled between the plurality of first assembly wirings AL1 and the plurality of second assembly wirings AL2 by using the electric field formed between the plurality of first assembly wirings AL1 and the plurality of second assembly wirings AL2.

[0111] Each of the first assembly wirings AL1 includes a first wiring portion LP1 and a plurality of first protrusion portions PP1. The first wiring portion LP1 is a portion extending in a straight line along the first direction DR1 in the assembly region 200A. The first wiring portion LP1 extends from the assembly region 200A to the outer region 200B and can be electrically connected to a plurality of assembly pads in the outer region 200B.

[0112] A plurality of first protrusions PP1 are connected to one first wiring portion LP1. The plurality of first protrusions PP1 may extend from one side surface of the first wiring portion LP1 toward the adjacent second assembly wiring AL2. The plurality of first protrusions PP1 may be arranged between one adjacent first assembly wiring AL1 and one adjacent second assembly wiring AL2 to self-assemble the plurality of first light emitting elements 120, the plurality of second light emitting elements 130, and the plurality of third light emitting elements 140. The plurality of first protrusions PP1 are arranged alternately with the plurality of second protrusions PP2 of the second assembly wiring AL2 described later, and can form a plurality of electric fields that self-assemble the light emitting element LED to correspond to the plurality of first sub-pixels SP1, the plurality of second sub-pixels SP2, and the plurality of third sub-pixels SP3, respectively. Therefore, the plurality of first protrusions PP1 are arranged in the region between the first assembly wiring AL1 and the second assembly wiring AL2, and the first light emitting element 120, the second light emitting element 130, and the third light emitting element 140 can be self-assembled in the intervals between the plurality of sub-pixels SP.

[0113] If the first light emitting elements 120, the second light emitting elements 130, and the third light emitting elements 140 are self-assembled using different assembly wirings AL, the assembly wirings AL for self-assembling the first light emitting elements 120, the assembly wirings AL for self-assembling the second light emitting elements 130, and the assembly wirings AL for self-assembling the third light emitting elements 140 are all required. In this case, the number of assembly wirings AL increases, making it difficult to secure the design area. In addition, in the process of forming the assembly wirings AL to correspond to the intervals between the sub-pixels SP, the width of the assembly wirings AL may be narrowed, increasing the resistance, which may lead to a decrease in the assembly rate.

[0114] Therefore, in order to self-assemble the first light-emitting element 120, the second light-emitting element 130 and the third light-emitting element 140 between one adjacent first assembly wiring AL1 and one second assembly wiring AL2, multiple first protrusion portions PP1 can be connected to one first wiring portion LP1.

[0115] Each of the multiple first protrusions PP1 includes a first portion PP1a and a second portion PP1b. The first portion PP1a extends from the first wiring portion LP1 in the second direction DR2. The first portion PP1a may be a connection member for transmitting a voltage to the second portion PP1b. One end of the first portion PP1a may be connected to the first wiring portion LP1, and the other end may be connected to the second portion PP1b.

[0116] The second portion PP1b is connected to the other end of the first portion PP1a and extends in the first direction DR1. The second portion PP1b may be arranged alternately with the second protruding portion PP2 of the second assembly wiring AL2 while extending in the first direction DR1. The second portion PP1b may be arranged in a region between the fourth portion PP2b of the second protruding portion PP2 of the second assembly wiring AL2 and the second wiring portion LP2. The second portion PP1b is arranged adjacent to the fourth portion PP2b of the second protruding portion PP2 and the second wiring portion LP2, and may form an electric field for self-assembling the plurality of first light-emitting elements 120, the plurality of second light-emitting elements 130, and the plurality of third light-emitting elements 140.

[0117] Each of the second assembly wirings AL2 includes a second wiring portion LP2 and a plurality of second protrusion portions PP2. The second wiring portion LP2 is a portion extending in a straight line along the first direction DR1 in the assembly region 200A. The second wiring portion LP2 may be arranged alternately with the first wiring portion LP1 in the second direction DR2. The second wiring portion LP2 may extend from the assembly region 200A to the outer region 200B and be electrically connected to a plurality of assembly pads in the outer region 200B.

[0118] A plurality of second protrusions PP2 are connected to the second wiring portion LP2. The plurality of second protrusions PP2 may extend from the other side surface of the second wiring portion LP2 in the second direction DR2. Each of the plurality of second protrusions PP2 includes a third portion PP2a and a fourth portion PP2b. The third portion PP2a is a portion extending from the second wiring portion LP2 in the second direction DR2. The third portion PP2a may be a connection member for transmitting a voltage to the fourth portion PP2b. One end of the third portion PP2a may be connected to the second wiring portion LP2, and the other end may be connected to the fourth portion PP2b. The third portion PP2a may be arranged alternately with the first portion PP1a of the adjacent first assembly wiring AL1. Thus, the third portion PP2a and the first portion may be arranged alternately, and the fourth portion PP2b connected to the third portion PP2a and the second portion PP1b connected to the first portion PP1a may be arranged alternately.

[0119] The fourth portion PP2b is connected to the other end of the third portion PP2a and extends in the first direction DR1. The fourth portion PP2b extends in the first direction DR1 and may be arranged alternately with the second portion PP1b of the first protruding portion PP1 of the first assembly wiring AL1. The fourth portion PP2b may be arranged in a region between the second portion PP1b of the first protruding portion PP1 of the first assembly wiring AL1 and the first wiring portion LP1. In the second direction DR2, the fourth portion PP2b of the second assembly wiring AL2 and the second portion PP1b of the first assembly wiring AL1 may face each other. Therefore, the fourth portion PP2b of the second assembly wiring AL2 may form an electric field for self-assembling the plurality of first light-emitting elements 120, the plurality of second light-emitting elements 130, and the plurality of third light-emitting elements 140 together with the first wiring portion LP1 and the second portion PP1b of the adjacent first assembly wiring AL1.

[0120] The plurality of assembly electrodes AE include a plurality of first assembly electrodes AE1 and a plurality of second assembly electrodes AE2. The plurality of first assembly electrodes AE1 may be connected to a plurality of first assembly wirings AL1, and the plurality of second assembly electrodes AE2 may be connected to a plurality of second assembly wirings AL2. The pair of first assembly electrodes AE1 and second assembly electrodes AE2 may be arranged adjacent to each other to form an electric field for self-assembling the light-emitting element LED. Each of the pair of first assembly electrodes AE1 and second assembly electrodes AE2 may be arranged corresponding to a fixed position where the light-emitting element LED is transferred in the plurality of sub-pixels SP.

[0121] Some of the first assembly electrodes AE1 may be arranged to protrude from one side surface of the first wiring portion LP1 in the second direction DR2. Other parts of the first assembly electrodes AE1 may be arranged to protrude from both side surfaces of the second portion PP1b of the first protrusion portion PP1 in the second direction DR2. For example, four first assembly electrodes AE1 may be connected to each of both side surfaces of one second portion PP1b.

[0122] Some of the second assembly electrodes AE2 may be arranged to protrude from the other side surface of the second wiring portion LP2 in the second direction DR2. Some of the second assembly electrodes AE2 connected to the second wiring portion LP2 may face the first assembly electrodes AE1 protruding from the second portion PP1b of the adjacent first assembly wiring AL1. Some of the second assembly electrodes AE2 may protrude from both side surfaces of the fourth portion PP2b of the second protruding portion PP2 in the second direction DR2. Among these, the second assembly electrodes AE2 protruding from one side surface of the fourth portion PP2b may face the first assembly electrodes AE1 protruding from the other side surface of the second portion PP1b of the adjacent first assembly wiring AL1. The second assembly electrodes AE2 protruding from the other side surface of the fourth portion PP2b may face the first assembly electrodes AE1 protruding from the first wiring portion LP1 of the adjacent first assembly wiring AL1.

[0123] Any one of the first light emitting element 120, the second light emitting element 130, and the third light emitting element 140 may be self-assembled between the first assembly electrode AE1 and the second assembly electrode AE2 of the fourth portion PP2b facing each other at intervals and arrangements corresponding to each of the sub-pixels SP. For example, the first light emitting element 120 may be self-assembled between the first assembly electrode AE1 of the first wiring portion LP1 and the second assembly electrode AE2 of the fourth portion PP2b facing each other, the second light emitting element 130 may be self-assembled between the first assembly electrode AE1 of the second portion PP1b and the second assembly electrode AE2 of the fourth portion PP2b facing each other, and the third light emitting element 140 may be self-assembled between the first assembly electrode AE1 of the second portion PP1b and the second assembly electrode AE2 of the second wiring portion LP2 facing each other.

[0124] Therefore, by arranging a plurality of first protrusions PP1 and a plurality of second protrusions PP2 alternately between a first assembly wiring AL1 and a second assembly wiring AL2 adjacent to each other, the first light-emitting element 120 of the first sub-pixel SP1, the second light-emitting element 130 of the second sub-pixel SP2, and the third light-emitting element 140 of the third sub-pixel SP3 can be self-assembled at once.

[0125] 6, a plurality of assembly pads are arranged on the assembly substrate 200 in the outer region 200B. The plurality of assembly pads include a plurality of first assembly pads APAD1 and a plurality of second assembly pads APAD2. The plurality of first assembly wires AL1 and the plurality of first assembly electrodes AE1 may be connected to the plurality of first assembly pads APAD1 to apply a voltage, and the plurality of second assembly wires AL2 and the plurality of second assembly electrodes AE2 may be connected to the plurality of second assembly pads APAD2 to apply a voltage. Some of the first assembly wires AL1 among the plurality of first assembly wires AL1 may be connected to one first assembly pad APAD1, and some of the second assembly wires AL2 among the plurality of second assembly wires AL2 may be connected to one second assembly pad APAD2.

[0126] Next, an organic layer OL including a plurality of openings OLH is disposed on the plurality of assembly wirings AL and the plurality of assembly electrodes AE. The organic layer OL includes a first organic layer OL1 and a second organic layer OL2. The first organic layer OL1 is disposed on the plurality of assembly wirings AL, and the second organic layer OL2 is disposed on the first organic layer OL1. The organic layer OL has a limited thickness that can be formed in one process. If the thickness of the organic layer OL is below a certain level, the light-emitting element LED self-assembled in the opening OLH of the organic layer OL may not be properly fixed in the opening OLH. Conversely, if the thickness of the organic layer OL is excessively thick, the light-emitting element LED self-assembled inside the opening OLH of the organic layer OL may not be easily attached to the donor 300. Therefore, the thickness of the organic layer OL may be adjusted while forming the organic layer OL in a plurality of layers. The organic layer OL may have a thickness that is at least lower than the height of the light-emitting element LED. In FIG. 7b, the organic layer OL is shown to include a first organic layer OL1 and a second organic layer OL2, but the organic layer OL may be formed as a single layer or may further include an additional organic layer OL in addition to the first organic layer OL1 and the second organic layer OL2, and is not limited thereto.

[0127] The organic layer OL includes a plurality of openings OLH. Each of the plurality of openings OLH formed by opening a portion of the organic layer OL is a region in which a plurality of light-emitting elements LED are self-assembled. The plurality of openings OLH may be arranged so as to overlap a region between a pair of a first assembly electrode AE1 and a second assembly electrode AE2. Then, each of the plurality of openings OLH may be formed at a position corresponding to each of the plurality of sub-pixels SP of the display device 100. Each of the plurality of openings OLH may be arranged in one-to-one correspondence with each of the plurality of sub-pixels SP, and the light-emitting elements LED self-assembled in the plurality of openings OLH may be directly transferred to the plurality of sub-pixels SP.

[0128] The openings OLH include a plurality of first openings OLH1, a plurality of second openings OLH2, and a plurality of third openings OLH3. The first openings OLH1, the second openings OLH2, and the third openings OLH3 may be arranged to correspond to the first sub-pixels SP1, the second sub-pixels SP2, and the third sub-pixels SP3, respectively.

[0129] The first openings OLH1 may have a shape corresponding to the planar shape of the first light emitting element 120, the second openings OLH2 may have a shape corresponding to the planar shape of the second light emitting element 130, and the third openings OLH3 may have a shape corresponding to the planar shape of the third light emitting element 140. For example, the first opening OLH1 may be circular so that only the first light emitting element 120 is self-assembled inside the first opening OLH1, and the second opening OLH2 may be elliptical so that only the second light emitting element 130 is self-assembled inside the second opening OLH2. And the third opening OLH3 may be elliptical having a longer major axis than the second opening OLH2, so that only the third light emitting element 140 is self-assembled inside the third opening OLH3. Therefore, the shapes of the first opening OLH1, the second opening OLH2 and the third opening OLH3 can be formed to correspond to the first light-emitting element 120, the second light-emitting element 130 and the third light-emitting element 140, respectively, so that only light-emitting element LEDs of a specific shape can be self-assembled in each opening OLH.

[0130] An assembly insulating layer IL is disposed on the organic layer OL. The assembly insulating layer IL protects the assembly wirings AL, the assembly electrodes AE, and the organic layer OL from the fluid WT, and can prevent defects such as corrosion of the assembly wirings AL.

[0131] 6 and 8, the outer region 200B includes one or more first alignment regions 200Ba. The first alignment region 200Ba is a region in which a plurality of first alignment patterns AP1 are arranged and a plurality of align keys AK are self-assembled. For example, each of the first alignment regions 200Ba may be formed adjacent to each of the four corners of the assembly region 200A.

[0132] A plurality of first align patterns AP1 are arranged on the assembly substrate 200 in the first align region 200Ba. The plurality of first align patterns AP1 are marks for aligning the assembly substrate 200 with the donor 300 described below. The assembly substrate 200 and the donor 300 can be aligned by aligning the plurality of first align patterns AP1 of the assembly substrate 200 with the plurality of second align patterns AP2 of the donor 300. For example, the plurality of first align patterns AP1 may be formed in a donut shape.

[0133] An assembly wiring AL and an assembly electrode AE ​​may be further disposed on the assembly substrate 200 in the first align region 200Ba. The assembly wiring AL disposed in the first align region 200Ba may apply a voltage to the assembly electrode AE ​​to form an electric field for self-assembling the align key AK at the assembly electrode AE.

[0134] An alignment key AK may be self-assembled in a region between the assembly electrodes AE of the first alignment region 200Ba. The alignment key AK may be transferred to the donor 300 together with the plurality of light-emitting elements LED, and the alignment key AK transferred to the donor 300 may be used to align the donor 300 and the display panel PN. That is, the alignment key AK is a mark for aligning the donor 300 and the display panel PN. The alignment key AK may be made of at least a part of the same material as the light-emitting element LED. For example, the first light-emitting element 120 may be used as the alignment key AK. In this case, a first opening OLH1 of the organic layer OL may be formed on the assembly electrode AE ​​so that only the first light-emitting element 120 functioning as the alignment key AK may be self-assembled.

[0135] In the following, a donor 300 according to one embodiment of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to Figures 9 to 11b.

[0136] Figure 9 is a plan view of a donor according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figures 10a and 10b are cross-sectional views along X-X' in Figure 9. Figure 11a is an enlarged plan view of a displacement measurement region of a donor according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 11b is an enlarged plan view of a second alignment region of a donor according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0137] 9 to 10b, the donor 300 includes a base substrate 310, a resin layer 330, a plurality of tip protrusions 331, a plurality of dummy protrusions 332, and a plurality of align protrusions 333. The donor 300 may optionally include an adhesive layer 320.

[0138] First, the base substrate 310 is configured to support various components included in the donor 300. The base substrate 310 may be made of a material harder than the resin layer 330 in order to minimize warping of the resin layer 330. The base substrate 310 is disposed under the resin layer 330 and may support the resin layer 330, the chip protrusions 331, the dummy protrusions 332, and the align protrusions 333 disposed on the resin layer 330. The base substrate 310 may be made of a rigid and transparent material, for example, glass. As another example, the base substrate 310 may include a polymer or plastic, and may be made of PC (Poly Carbonate) or PET (Poly Ethylene Terephthalate), but is not limited thereto.

[0139] Meanwhile, when the base substrate 310 of the donor 300 is made of glass, the edge portion of the base substrate 310 can be processed to be smooth before use. When the donor 300 is separated from the substrate 200 for assembly or the display panel PN, it can be peeled off sequentially from one edge of the donor 300. That is, the donor 300 can be linearly peeled off from the substrate 200 for assembly or the display panel PN, and the donor 300 can be warped during the linear peeling process. However, the base substrate 310 made of glass is vulnerable to warping at its edge portion, and cracks can occur. For example, microcracks formed during the cutting process of the base substrate 310 exist at the edge portion of the base substrate 310, and the cracks can propagate to the entire base substrate 310 due to stress generated while the donor 300 is warped. Therefore, the edge portion of the base substrate 310 can be mechanically polished or processed to be smooth through a chemical treatment to remove the microcracks, thereby improving the reliability of the base substrate 310.

[0140] 10a and 10b, a separate adhesive layer 320 may be formed between the base substrate 310 and the resin layer 330, or the resin layer 330 may be formed directly on the base substrate 310. The adhesive layer 320 bonds the resin layer 330 to the base substrate 310. The adhesive layer 320 may be made of a material having adhesive properties, such as, but not limited to, an OCA (Optical Clear Adhesive), a PSA (Pressure Sensitive Adhesive), etc.

[0141] However, as shown in Fig. 10b, the adhesive layer 320 may be omitted depending on the design. For example, the resin layer 330 may be formed by directly coating a material constituting the resin layer 330 on the base substrate 310 and then curing the material. In this case, since the resin layer 330 can be attached to the base substrate 310 without disposing the adhesive layer 320, the adhesive layer 320 may be omitted depending on the design, and is not limited thereto.

[0142] A resin layer 330 is disposed on the base substrate 310. The resin layer 330 may be formed only on a portion of the base substrate 310 instead of on the entire base substrate 310. The resin layer 330 may support a plurality of chip protrusions 331 to which a plurality of light emitting elements LEDs are attached during a transfer process. The resin layer 330 may be made of a polymer resin having viscoelasticity, for example, the resin layer 330 may be made of PDMS (Poly Di Methyl Siloxane; PDMS), PUA (Poly Urethane Acrylate), PEG (Poly Ethylene Glycol), PMMA (Poly Methyl Meth Acrylate), PS (Poly Styrene), epoxy resin, urethane resin, acrylic resin, etc., but is not limited thereto.

[0143] The resin layer 330 includes a transfer area 300A and a non-transfer area 300B. The transfer area 300A is an area in which a plurality of chip protrusions 331 are arranged. The transfer area 300A is an area in which a plurality of chip protrusions 331 to which a plurality of light-emitting element LEDs are attached are arranged, and may be arranged so as to overlap at least a part of the assembly area 200A of the assembly substrate 200 or the display area AA of the display panel PN during the transfer process.

[0144] The non-transfer area 300B is an area in which a plurality of dummy protrusions 332 and a plurality of alignment protrusions 333 are arranged. The non-transfer area 300B includes a displacement measurement area 300Ba and a second alignment area 300Bb. The displacement measurement area 300Ba is an area for measuring the flatness of the donor 300, and the second alignment area 300Bb is an area for aligning the assembly substrate 200 or the display panel PN with the donor 300.

[0145] Next, a plurality of chip protrusions 331 are disposed on the resin layer 330 in the transfer region 300A. The plurality of chip protrusions 331 are protrusions to which a plurality of light emitting elements LEDs are temporarily attached, and may be formed extending from one surface of the resin layer 330. The plurality of chip protrusions 331 may be integral with the resin layer 330, and may be made of a polymeric material having viscoelasticity similar to the resin layer 330. For example, the plurality of chip protrusions 331 may be made of, but is not limited to, PDMS (Poly Di Methyl Siloxane), PUA (Poly Urethane Acrylate), PEG (Poly Ethylene Glycol), PMMA (Poly Methyl Meth Acrylate), PS (Poly Styrene), epoxy resin, urethane resin, acrylic resin, etc.

[0146] A plurality of light-emitting elements LED may be temporarily attached to upper surfaces of the plurality of chip protrusions 331. The plurality of light-emitting elements LED self-assembled on the assembly substrate 200 may be transferred to the upper surfaces of the plurality of chip protrusions 331, and the plurality of light-emitting elements LED may be temporarily attached to the upper surfaces of the plurality of chip protrusions 331 before being transferred to the display panel PN.

[0147] At this time, a plurality of light emitting elements LED included in one pixel PX may be transferred together onto one chip protrusion 331. For example, one pixel PX may include two first sub-pixels SP1, two second sub-pixels SP2, and two third sub-pixels SP3, and six light emitting elements LED included in each sub-pixel SP may be disposed on one chip protrusion 331. However, the number of light emitting elements LED disposed on one chip protrusion 331 may vary depending on the design and is not limited thereto.

[0148] 11a and 11b, a plurality of dummy protrusions 332 are disposed on the resin layer 330 in the non-transfer region 300B. The plurality of dummy protrusions 332 can improve the adhesion between the assembly substrate 200 and the donor 300 during the transfer process, and can also minimize deformation of the plurality of chip protrusions 331 due to an impact applied to the donor 300. For example, when the assembly substrate 200 and the donor 300 are attached and then the plurality of light-emitting elements LED are transferred onto the donor 300, the plurality of light-emitting elements LED may move onto the donor 300 and an impact may be applied to the donor 300. The plurality of dummy protrusions 332 in the non-transfer region 300B disposed to surround the transfer region 300A can maintain a state of being attached to the assembly substrate 200, and can minimize deformation of the resin layer 330 and the plurality of chip protrusions 331 in the transfer region 300A due to an impact. In addition, the plurality of dummy protrusions 332 may contact the organic layer OL of the assembly substrate 200 to maintain the assembly substrate 200 and the donor 300 in a bonded state. The plurality of dummy protrusions 332 may be formed in a different shape and size than the chip protrusions 331, but are not limited thereto.

[0149] 11a, a plurality of displacement measurement regions 300Ba are disposed in the non-transfer region 300B. The displacement measurement region 300Ba is a region for aligning the parallelism of the donor 300, and may be an empty space in which no separate protrusions are disposed. The displacement measurement region 300Ba may be a transparent region in which only the resin layer 330 is disposed and a laser can pass through. The parallelism of the donor 300 can be aligned using a laser passing through the displacement measurement region 300Ba. In this case, the displacement measurement region 300Ba may be disposed adjacent to the upper side, lower side, left side, and right side of the transfer region 300A in order to measure the parallelism of the donor 300.

[0150] 11b, a plurality of second align regions 300Bb are arranged in the non-transfer region 300B. The second align regions 300Bb are regions for aligning the assembly substrate 200 or the display panel PN with the donor 300. When the assembly substrate 200 and the donor 300 are attached to each other, the second align regions 300Bb may correspond to the first align regions 200Ba of the assembly substrate 200. The second align regions 300Bb may be arranged adjacent to each of the four corners of the transfer region 300A.

[0151] A second align pattern AP2 is disposed on the resin layer 330 in the second align region 300Bb. The second align pattern AP2 is a mark for aligning the assembly substrate 200 and the donor 300. The donor 300 and the assembly substrate 200 can be aligned by aligning the second align pattern AP2 with the first align pattern AP1 of the assembly substrate 200. For example, the second align pattern AP2 may be a circular protrusion disposed on the resin layer 330. The donor 300 and the assembly substrate 200 can be aligned by aligning the circular second align pattern AP2 with the empty space inside the doughnut-shaped first align pattern AP1.

[0152] In the second alignment region 300Bb, an alignment protrusion 333 is disposed on the resin layer 330. The alignment protrusion 333 is a protrusion to which an alignment key AK self-assembled on the assembly substrate 200 is transferred. An alignment key AK may be temporarily disposed on the alignment protrusion 333. A plurality of light emitting elements LED on the assembly substrate 200 may be transferred to the chip protrusion 331, and at the same time, the alignment key AK on the assembly substrate 200 may be transferred to the alignment protrusion 333. The alignment key AK transferred to the alignment protrusion 333 may be used when aligning the donor 300 and the display panel PN thereafter.

[0153] A method for manufacturing a display device 100 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure will be described below with reference to FIGS. 12a to 12h.

[0154] 12a to 12h are process diagrams for explaining a method for manufacturing a display device according to an embodiment of the present specification. FIG. 12a and FIG. 12b are diagrams for explaining a process of self-assembling a light-emitting element LED on an assembly substrate 200. FIG. 12c is a diagram for explaining a process of transferring a light-emitting element LED on an assembly substrate 200 to a donor 300. FIG. 12d is a plan view of a first alignment region 200Ba and a second alignment region 300Bb when the assembly substrate 200 and the donor 300 are joined. FIG. 12e is a plan view of an assembly region 200A and a transfer region 300A when the assembly substrate 200 and the donor 300 are joined. FIG. 12f and FIG. 12g are diagrams for explaining a process of transferring a light-emitting element LED on a donor 300 to a display panel PN. FIG. 12h is a cross-sectional view of a display panel PN for explaining a process of forming a first connection electrode CE1 and a second connection electrode CE2.

[0155] Referring to FIG. 12 a , a plurality of light-emitting elements LEDs are self-assembled on an assembly substrate 200 .

[0156] First, a plurality of light emitting elements LED grown on a wafer are placed in a chamber CB filled with a fluid WT. The fluid WT may include water, and the chamber CB filled with the fluid WT may have an open top.

[0157] Then, the assembly substrate 200 may be placed on the chamber CB filled with the light emitting device LED. The assembly substrate 200 may be disposed such that the organic layer OL having the plurality of openings OLH of the assembly substrate 200 faces the chamber CB.

[0158] Then, a magnet MG can be placed on the assembly substrate 200. The light-emitting element LED that is sunk to the bottom or floating in the chamber CB can be moved to the assembly substrate 200 side by the magnetic force of the magnet MG.

[0159] In this case, the light emitting element LED may include a magnetic material so as to move due to a magnetic field. For example, any one of the n-type electrodes 124, 134, 144 or the p-type electrodes 125, 135, 145 of the light emitting element LED may include a ferromagnetic material such as iron (Fe), cobalt (Co) or nickel (Ni) to align the light emitting element LED toward the magnet MG.

[0160] Next, referring to FIG. 12b, the light-emitting element LED moved to the assembly substrate 200 by the magnet MG can be self-assembled to the assembly substrate 200 by the electric field formed between the assembly electrodes AE.

[0161] Specifically, a voltage is applied to the plurality of assembly wirings AL and the plurality of assembly electrodes AE to self-assemble the plurality of light-emitting elements LED in the opening OLH of the organic layer OL. For example, different AC voltages may be applied to the plurality of first assembly wirings AL1 and the plurality of first assembly electrodes AE1 and the plurality of second assembly wirings AL2 and the plurality of second assembly electrodes AE2 to form an electric field. The light-emitting element LED may be dielectrically polarized by the electric field to have a polarity. The dielectrically polarized light-emitting element LED may move or be fixed in a specific direction by dielectrophoresis (DEP), i.e., the electric field. Therefore, the plurality of light-emitting elements LED may be temporarily self-assembled inside the opening OLH of the assembly substrate 200 by using dielectrophoresis.

[0162] In this case, the elliptical second light emitting element 130 and the third light emitting element 140 may be aligned such that a pair of n-type electrodes faces the adjacent assembly electrodes AE. For example, the second light emitting element 130 may be self-assembled inside the second opening OLH2 by being aligned such that one of the pair of second n-type electrodes 134 faces the first assembly electrode AE1 and the other faces the second assembly electrode AE2.

[0163] After the self-assembly is completed, the fluid WT can be evaporated from the assembly substrate 200. At this time, before the fluid WT is completely evaporated, an electric field can be formed between the assembly electrodes AE to fix the light emitting element LED to the inside of the opening OLH. Then, when the assembly substrate 200 is completely dried, the electric field can be removed. At this time, even after the electric field is removed, the light emitting element LED can be temporarily fixed to the assembly substrate 200 through van der Waals force.

[0164] Next, referring to FIGS. 12C to 12E, the light-emitting elements LED and the alignment keys AK of the assembly substrate 200 are transferred to a donor 300. As shown in FIG.

[0165] 12c and 12d, the assembly substrate 200 and the donor 300 are aligned so that the light emitting elements LED and the donor 300 face each other. At this time, the assembly substrate 200 and the donor 300 can be aligned by overlapping the first align area 200Ba of the assembly substrate 200 and the second align area 300Bb of the donor 300 with each other. For example, the assembly substrate 200 and the donor 300 can be aligned so that the first align pattern AP1 of the assembly substrate 200 and the second align pattern AP2 of the donor 300 overlap with each other. The assembly substrate 200 and the donor 300 can be aligned so that the circular second align pattern AP2 is disposed in the empty space inside the doughnut-shaped first align pattern AP1. In this case, the align keys AK of the assembly substrate 200 can be aligned so as to overlap with each other on the align protrusions 333 of the donor 300.

[0166] 12e, when the first align pattern AP1 and the second align pattern AP2 are aligned, the chip protrusions 331 may be aligned to correspond to the light-emitting elements LED. The chip protrusions 331 may be disposed on the pair of first light-emitting elements 120, the pair of second light-emitting elements 130, and the pair of third light-emitting elements 140.

[0167] Therefore, after aligning the assembly substrate 200 and the donor 300, the assembly substrate 200 and the donor 300 can be joined together to bring the upper portions of the light emitting elements LED into contact with the donor 300. At this time, since the donor 300 is made of a material having adhesive properties, the upper portions of the light emitting elements LED can be attached to the donor 300 and moved from the assembly substrate 200 to the donor 300 side. In addition to the light emitting elements LED transferred to the chip protrusions 331 side, the alignment keys AK can also be transferred to the alignment protrusions 333 side of the donor 300. Next, referring to FIG. 12f, the plurality of light-emitting element LEDs on the donor 300 are transferred onto the adhesive layer 116 of the display panel PN.

[0168] First, the display panel PN, which has been formed up to the adhesive layer 116, and the donor 300 are aligned. After the donor 300 is arranged so that the plurality of light emitting elements LED of the donor 300 and the adhesive layer 116 of the display panel PN face each other, the display panel PN and the donor 300 can be aligned. When aligning the display panel PN and the donor 300, the align key AK temporarily attached on the align protrusion 333 of the donor 300 can be aligned with the third align pattern AP3 of the display panel PN to align the donor 300 and the display panel PN. The third align pattern AP3 is a pattern disposed in the non-display area NA of the display panel PN, and may be formed of the same material as any one of the plurality of wirings or the plurality of electrodes disposed in the display panel PN. For example, the third align pattern AP3 may be formed in a square shape with an X-shaped pattern disposed therein. Thus, the donor 300 and the display panel PN can be aligned so that the align key AK is disposed at the center of the X-shaped portion of the third align pattern AP3.

[0169] 12f and 12g, the donor 300 and the display device 100 are bonded together, and the light emitting element LED on the donor 300 can be transferred onto the adhesive layer 116. The light emitting element LEDs on the donor 300 are arranged in an array corresponding to the sub-pixels SP, and all the light emitting element LEDs on the donor 300 can be transferred to the display panel PN at once without the need to selectively transfer the light emitting element LEDs. The light emitting element LEDs transferred to the display panel PN can be temporarily fixed by being attached to the adhesive layer 116.

[0170] The alignment key AK may be transferred together with the plurality of light emitting elements LED. The alignment key AK may be transferred onto the third alignment pattern AP3 of the non-display area NA. However, the alignment key AK transferred onto the display panel PN is not connected to a separate connection electrode CE and does not emit light.

[0171] Next, referring to FIG. 12h, after transferring the light emitting element LED onto the adhesive layer 116 of the display panel PN, the first connection electrode CE1 and the second connection electrode CE2 can be formed to electrically connect the light emitting element LED to the driving transistor DT and the power supply wiring VDD.

[0172] First, a second planarization layer 117 and a third planarization layer 118 are formed to cover the plurality of light-emitting elements LED. Then, contact holes exposing the n-type electrodes 124, 134, 144 and the p-type electrodes 125, 135, 145 of the plurality of light-emitting elements LED are formed in the third planarization layer 118, and contact holes exposing the first reflective electrode RE1 and the second reflective electrode RE2 are formed in the third planarization layer 118, the second planarization layer 117, and the adhesive layer 116.

[0173] Then, the first connection electrode CE1 and the second connection electrode CE2 may be formed on the third planarization layer 118. A conductive material layer may be formed on the front surface of the substrate 110 and patterned to form the first connection electrode CE1 and the second connection electrode CE2.

[0174] Therefore, in the display device 100 and the manufacturing method of the display device 100 according to an embodiment of the present specification, the light emitting element LED is self-assembled on the assembly substrate 200 in an arrangement corresponding to the sub-pixels SP, and then the light emitting element LED on the assembly substrate 200 can be transferred to the display panel PN using the donor 300. When the light emitting element LED is self-assembled using an electric field, a process of aligning the light emitting element LED to correspond to the intervals of the sub-pixels SP and transferring it from the wafer to the donor 300 can be omitted. In addition, the light emitting element LED can be easily self-assembled at a fixed position using the electric field and the multiple openings OLH, and alignment errors can be minimized. Therefore, by self-assembling the light emitting element LED in an arrangement corresponding to the sub-pixels SP using the assembly substrate 200 and transferring it to the display panel PN as it is, alignment errors of the light emitting element LED can be minimized and the transfer process can be simplified.

[0175] Meanwhile, in the display device 100 and the manufacturing method of the display device 100 according to an embodiment of the present specification, since the light emitting elements LED are self-assembled on the assembly substrate 200 in random positions, not in accordance with the arrangement on the wafer, it is possible to minimize the wavelength deviation on the wafer appearing directly on the display panel PN. Hereinafter, the effect of reducing the wavelength deviation will be described with reference to Figures 13a to 14b.

[0176] Fig. 13a is a diagram showing a screen of a display device according to a comparative example. Fig. 13b is a graph showing wavelength distribution measured along line A-A' in Fig. 13a. Fig. 14a is a diagram showing a screen of a display device according to an embodiment of the present specification. Fig. 14b is a graph showing wavelength distribution measured along line B-B' in Fig. 14a.

[0177] The display device according to the comparative example is a display device in which a plurality of light-emitting elements LED on a wafer are transferred directly to a donor 300 and then transferred from the donor 300 to a display panel PN. The plurality of light-emitting elements LED can be arranged on the display panel PN in the same arrangement as on the wafer.

[0178] First, in the display device 100 and the manufacturing method of the display device 100 according to one embodiment of this specification, a plurality of light-emitting elements LED are self-assembled in random positions and transferred to the display panel PN, thereby minimizing the wavelength deviation on the wafer appearing directly on the display panel PN and improving the hue uniformity.

[0179] Although multiple LED light emitting devices grown on one wafer emit the same series of light, the wavelength of light actually emitted by LED light emitting devices grown on one wafer may vary slightly due to process errors. For example, LED light emitting devices closer to the center or corners of the wafer may emit light with longer wavelengths, and LED light emitting devices closer to the area between the center and corners of the wafer may emit light with shorter wavelengths.

[0180] 13a and 13b, when the light emitting element LED on the wafer is transferred to the donor 300 and the display panel PN with the arrangement on the wafer as in the display device according to the comparative example, the wavelength deviation on the wafer can be seen as it is on the display panel PN. It can also be seen that the wavelengths of the light emitting element LED are continuously changed in the form of a sine wave in the graph obtained by measuring the wavelength distribution along the line A-A'. Therefore, the wavelength deviation distribution on the wafer can be seen as it is by a user who watches the display panel PN.

[0181] Therefore, in the display device 100 according to an embodiment of the present specification, a plurality of light emitting elements LED grown on a plurality of wafers are put into one chamber CB, and the light emitting elements LED are self-assembled at random positions using an electric field, so that the light emitting elements LED having wavelength deviation can be uniformly distributed. That is, since the plurality of light emitting elements LED are uniformly mixed and self-assembled during self-assembly, it is possible to minimize the visibility of color and brightness spots between a plurality of regions of the display panel PN to which the light emitting elements LED are transferred from different donors 300. Therefore, the wavelength deviation on the wafer is not visible on the display panel PN, and the hue uniformity of the light emitted by the light emitting elements LED can be improved.

[0182] Specifically, referring to Figures 14a and 14b, in the display device 100 according to an embodiment of the present specification, a plurality of light-emitting elements LED having wavelength deviations are uniformly mixed and transferred to the display panel PN, so that the wavelength deviation distribution on the wafer is not visible to the user. In particular, it can be seen that the wavelength distribution is uniformly formed in a graph obtained by measuring the wavelength distribution along line B-B'. Therefore, the light-emitting elements LED are randomly arranged in the self-assembly process, and the wavelength deviations can be mitigated, and the hue uniformity can be improved.

[0183] In addition, in the display device 100 and the manufacturing method of the display device 100 according to an embodiment of the present specification, the interval between the plurality of light-emitting elements LED on one wafer can be reduced, and the number of light-emitting elements LED manufactured on one wafer can be increased. When the light-emitting elements LED are directly transferred from the wafer to the donor 300, the light-emitting elements LED can be transferred to the donor 300 by irradiating a laser. In the selective transfer using a laser, only some of the light-emitting elements LED among the plurality of light-emitting elements LED can be transferred to the sub-pixel SP array. However, since the impact applied when the laser is irradiated may damage the adjacent light-emitting elements LED, it is necessary to secure the interval between the light-emitting elements LED. However, in the manufacturing method of the display device 100 according to an embodiment of the present specification, since the plurality of light-emitting elements LED grown on one wafer are all put into one chamber CB and self-assembled, there is no need to selectively detach the light-emitting elements LED, and the interval between the light-emitting elements LED can also be reduced. As a result, the minimum interval between the light-emitting elements LED is narrowed, and the number of light-emitting elements LED that can be formed on one wafer can be increased, and the manufacturing cost can be reduced.

[0184] In addition, the number of light emitting elements LED that can be formed on one wafer is increased, allowing a smaller size wafer to be used. The smaller the wafer size, the less the wavelength deviation between the multiple light emitting elements LED arranged on the wafer. Therefore, the display device 100 can be manufactured using a smaller size wafer with multiple light emitting elements LED with reduced wavelength deviation, and the display quality and color uniformity of the display device 100 can be improved.

[0185] In the display device 100 and the manufacturing method of the display device 100 according to an embodiment of the present specification, the number of transfers required to manufacture one display device 100 can be reduced by using a donor 300 having a larger size. First, as the size of the donor 300 increases, the transfer tolerance increases, and there is a limit to increasing the size of the donor 300. In particular, when the light emitting element LED is directly transferred from the wafer to the donor 300 in accordance with the arrangement of the sub-pixels SP, errors occurring during the transfer process and errors occurring when the donor 300 is deformed due to temperature or humidity may be added, and the quality of the display device 100 may be reduced. In contrast, in the display device 100 and the manufacturing method of the display device 100 according to an embodiment of the present specification, the assembly substrate 200 may be used to align the multiple light emitting element LED in the arrangement of the sub-pixels SP. Then, the multiple light emitting element LED aligned in the arrangement of the sub-pixels SP may be directly transferred to the donor 300 to minimize errors occurring during the transfer process. Therefore, the size of the donor 300 may be further enlarged to reduce the number of transfers required to manufacture one display device 100, and production efficiency may be improved.
