Abstract

Disclosed are a micro LED group substrate provided with a plurality of micro LEDs, a method of manufacturing the same, a micro LED display panel, and a method of manufacturing the same. More particularly, disclosed are a micro LED group substrate provided with a plurality of micro LEDs, a method of manufacturing the same, a micro LED display panel, and a method of manufacturing the same, wherein the need for a micro LED replacement process is eliminated.

Claims (32)

1. A micro LED group substrate, comprising:

a substrate;

micro LEDs of the same type individualized on the substrate in a matrix shape of rows and columns; and

a connection part connecting the micro LEDs to each other to form a micro LED group,

wherein adjacent micro LED groups are not connected to each other by the connection part, and

wherein the substrate is a temporary substrate or a growth substrate for collectively transferring the micro LED group to a sub-pixel region.

2. The micro LED group substrate of claim 1 , wherein the connection part comprises a molding material removable by a laser or an etchant.

3. The micro LED group substrate of claim 1 , wherein the connection part comprises a photoresist.

4. The micro LED group substrate of claim 1 , wherein the connection part comprises an adhesive material.

5. The micro LED group substrate of claim 1 , wherein the connection part comprises a metal.

6. The micro LED group substrate of claim 1 , wherein the connection part comprises an adhesive film.

7. The micro LED group substrate of claim 1 , wherein the connection part comprises epoxy, acrylic (polyacrylate), poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), benzocyclobutene (BCB), polyimide, and polyester.

8. The micro LED group substrate of claim 1 , wherein the micro LEDs of the same type emit a single color.

9. A micro LED display panel, comprising:

an array of unit pixel regions each of which is composed of a plurality of sub-pixel regions;

a micro LED group mounted on at least one of the sub-pixel regions and composed of a plurality of micro LEDs of the same type;

a common lower electrode provided on a lower portion of the micro LED group;

a common upper electrode provided on an upper portion of the micro LED group; and

a common joining layer provided singly on the common lower electrode to collectively join the micro LED group to the common lower electrode,

wherein the micro LEDs in the micro LED group are electrically connected in parallel to each other with respect to the common lower electrode and the common upper electrode,

wherein the micro LED group is composed of the micro LEDs arranged in a plurality of rows and a plurality of columns, and

wherein the micro LED group is collectively joined on the common joining layer.

10. The micro LED display panel of claim 9 , wherein the micro LED group comprises a defective micro LED.

11. The micro LED display panel of claim 9 , wherein the micro LED group comprises a missing micro LED.

12. The micro LED display panel of claim 9 , wherein the number of micro LEDs in the micro LED group is different for each of the sub-pixel regions.

13. The micro LED display panel of claim 9 , wherein the micro LEDs in the micro LED group are composed of micro LEDs of the same type.

14. The micro LED display panel of claim 9 , wherein the common upper electrode is configured in a surface shape that entirely connects the micro LEDs in the micro LED group to each other.

15. The micro LED display panel of claim 9 , wherein the common upper electrode is configured in a strip shape that entirely connects the micro LEDs in the micro LED group to each other.

16. The micro LED display panel of claim 9 , wherein a pitch interval between the micro LEDs in the micro LED group is the same as a pitch interval between micro LEDs on a growth substrate for manufacturing the micro LEDs.

17. The micro LED display panel of claim 9 , wherein a first micro LED group emitting a first color is mounted on a first sub-pixel region of the sub-pixel regions, a second micro LED group emitting light of a second color is mounted on a second sub-pixel region of the sub-pixel regions, and a third micro LED group emitting light of a third color is mounted on a third sub-pixel region of the sub-pixel regions.

18. The micro LED display panel of claim 9 , wherein micro LEDs of the same type are mounted on each of the plurality of sub-pixel regions, and

a color conversion part is provided on the common upper electrode.
