Abstract

The present invention relates to a transfer head and a method of manufacturing a micro LED display using the same. In particular, the present invention relates to a transfer head and a method of manufacturing a micro LED display using the same, the transfer head mounting normal micro LEDs on a display substrate without performing a complicated process of sorting out defective micro LEDs from the micro LEDs mounted on the display substrate and replacing the defective micro LEDs with normal micro LEDs.

Claims (8)

1. A method of manufacturing a micro LED display using a transfer head including a porous member having pores, wherein the porous member includes one or more grip regions on which micro LEDs are gripped and one or more non-grip regions on which micro LEDs are not gripped, the method comprising:

gripping micro LEDs onto the grip regions, while a grip force of the grip regions is generated, the transfer head moves relative to the micro LEDs in a horizontal direction, and a lower surface of the transfer head is spaced apart from upper surfaces of the micro LEDs by a predetermined distance,

wherein the predetermined distance is set to a distance sufficient to attract the micro LEDs with the grip force of the grip regions, and

wherein the movement of the transfer head relative to the micro LEDs is achieved by reciprocation.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the micro LEDs gripped onto the grip regions are normal micro LEDs.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the transfer head grips the micro LEDs from above a collecting box where normal micro LEDs are collected.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the micro LEDs gripped onto the grip regions are in a matrix form.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the transfer head grips the micro LEDs from above a fluid in which normal micro LEDs float.
