Solution Overview

Problem

The conventional manufacturing process of light-emitting diode displays involves multiple flipping processes and requires the use of a colloid layer to fix crystal grains, which needs to be removed, and an additional process for a color conversion layer, prolonging the manufacturing time.

Innovation Solution

The display device manufacturing method integrates color conversion particles into an adhesive layer used to fix the light-emitting diode, eliminating the need to remove the adhesive layer and an additional process for the color conversion layer, thereby shortening the manufacturing time.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If a separate color conversion layer is added after crystal grain transfer, then color conversion function is achieved, but manufacturing process time is extended

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecolor conversion functionVSAvoidmanufacturing process time
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The adhesive layer and color conversion layer are merged into a single integrated layer. The adhesive layer contains both adhesive material and color conversion particles, eliminating the need for a separate color conversion layer and reducing manufacturing steps while achieving both fixation and color conversion functions simultaneously

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The adhesive layer is designed to perform multiple functions: it serves as both the adhesive material for fixing crystal grains and the color conversion layer for converting light wavelengths. This multi-functional design eliminates redundant layers and simplifies the overall structure

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Manufacturing precision

If multiple flipping processes are used to transfer crystal grains, then crystal grain positioning is achieved, but manufacturing complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
