Abstract

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a support substrate, a first substrate, a semiconductor element, and an adhesive layer. The first substrate is disposed on the support substrate. The semiconductor element is disposed on the first substrate. The adhesive layer is disposed between the support substrate and the first substrate. The adhesive layer includes a plurality of grooves. The electronic device provided by the disclosure is capable of improving the appearance flatness problem caused by air bubbles between the adhesive layer and other stacked layers through the grooves of the adhesive layer.

Claims (31)

1 . An electronic device, comprising:

a support substrate;

a first substrate, disposed on the support substrate;

a semiconductor element, disposed on the first substrate; and

an adhesive layer, disposed between the support substrate and the first substrate and comprising a plurality of grooves,

wherein the first substrate is disposed between the semiconductor element and the support substrate,

wherein a cross section of at least one of the plurality of the grooves only has one apex angle, and the one apex angle is 60 degrees to 110 degrees.

2 . The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the grooves are located on a side of the adhesive layer facing the first substrate.

3 . The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the grooves are located on a side of the adhesive layer facing the support substrate.

4 . The electronic device according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a driving substrate, coupled to the first substrate, wherein the adhesive layer is located between the driving substrate and the first substrate.

5 . The electronic device according to claim 4 , wherein the driving substrate and the first substrate are bendable.

6 . The electronic device according to claim 4 , wherein the driving substrate is located between the first substrate and the support substrate.

7 . The electronic device according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a driving substrate, coupled to the first substrate, wherein the adhesive layer is located between the support substrate and the driving substrate.

8 . The electronic device according to claim 7 , wherein the driving substrate is located between the first substrate and the support substrate.

9 . The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the semiconductor element is a light emitting diode.

10 . The electronic device according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a decorative board, disposed at a side of the support substrate facing away from the first substrate.

11 . The electronic device according to claim 10 , further comprising:

another adhesive layer, disposed between the decorative board and the support substrate and comprising a plurality of other grooves,

wherein the other grooves are located at a side of the another adhesive layer facing the support substrate.

12 . The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein a height of each of the grooves is ⅓ to ½ of a thickness of the adhesive layer.

13 . The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein a height of each of the grooves is between 3 μm and half a thickness of the adhesive layer.

14 . The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein a thickness of the adhesive layer is 10 μm to 50 μm.

15 . The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the first substrate has a circuit layer, and the circuit layer is coupled to the semiconductor element.

16 . The electronic device according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a protection layer, covering the semiconductor element and the first substrate.

17 . The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the grooves are arranged in an alternating manner to form rhombus patterns.

18 . The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the grooves extend to an edge of the adhesive layer in a bottom schematic view of the adhesive layer.

19 . The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein an area of the grooves is 4% to 10% of a total area of the adhesive layer in a bottom schematic view of the adhesive layer.
