Solution Overview

Problem

Existing methods for manufacturing light-emitting devices do not efficiently achieve high pixel density, which is necessary for advanced display technologies.

Innovation Solution

A method involving the use of a pixelated template with convex and concave portions, where two-dimensional materials like exfoliated Ruddlesden-Popper perovskite single crystal layers are transferred and selectively removed to create high-density pixel arrays, which are then integrated into a light-emitting device structure.

Solution Approach 1:

The manufacturing process is divided into distinct stages: forming pixelated template with convex and concave portions, transferring two-dimensional material to the template, selectively removing material from concave portions, and integrating into light-emitting device structure. This segmentation enables high pixel density while managing process complexity through systematic breakdown of steps.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent utilizes two-dimensional material (such as exfoliated Ruddlesden-Popper perovskite single crystal layers) and transfers it to a three-dimensional pixelated template structure. This dimensional transition enables high-density pixel arrays by leveraging the atomic-layer properties of 2D materials conformally covering the template's convex and concave surfaces.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

Solution Approach 1:

A pixelated template with predefined convex and concave portions is prepared in advance before material transfer. This preliminary structuring of the substrate enables subsequent high-precision material deposition and selective removal processes to achieve high pixel density without proportionally increasing manufacturing difficulty.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The pixelated template serves as an intermediary structure that facilitates the transfer of two-dimensional material into high-density pixel arrays. The template's convex and concave portions act as a mediator that guides material deposition and enables selective removal, simplifying the overall manufacturing process while achieving high precision.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)
