Abstract

Micro light-emitting diode displays having color correction films applied thereto and methods of applying color correction films to a display are described. In an example, a method of fabricating a micro light emitting diode display includes applying a color correction film to a flexible transparent backing film. The method also includes placing the flexible transparent backing film over a display with the color correction film facing the display. The method also includes applying a laser to a portion of the flexible transparent backing film to eject a patch of the color correction film onto the display.

Claims (26)

1. A method of fabricating a micro light emitting diode display, the method comprising:

applying a color correction film to a flexible transparent backing film;

placing the flexible transparent backing film over a display with the color correction film facing the display, the display having a microgroove; and

applying a laser to a portion of the flexible transparent backing film to eject a patch of the color correction film into the microgroove of the display, the microgroove larger than the patch of the color correction film.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the flexible transparent backing film comprises a release layer, and applying the color correction film to the flexible transparent backing film comprises applying the color correction film to the release layer.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein applying the laser to the portion of the flexible transparent backing film comprises laser ablating a portion of the release layer to eject the patch of the color correction film onto the display.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the color correction film comprises quantum dots.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the flexible transparent backing film is a continuous roll.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the color correction film is pre-shaped into a plurality of patches prior to applying the laser.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the color correction film is a continuous film.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the display comprises a pixel structure comprising a green micro light emitting diode device, a first blue micro light emitting diode device, and a second blue micro light emitting diode device.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the patch of the color correction film is ejected onto a portion of the display over the second blue micro light emitting diode device.

10. The method of claim 9 , wherein the patch of the color correction film converts blue light from the second blue micro light emitting diode device to red light.

11. A method of fabricating a micro light emitting diode display, the method comprising:

applying a color correction film to a flexible transparent backing film;

placing the flexible transparent backing film over a display with the color correction film facing the display, the display having a microgroove; and

locally heating a portion of the flexible transparent backing film to melt a patch of the color correction film into the microgroove of the display, the microgroove larger than the patch of the color correction film.

12. The method of claim 11 , wherein locally heating the portion of the flexible transparent backing film comprises heating with a laser.

13. The method of claim 11 , wherein the flexible transparent backing film comprises a release layer, and applying the color correction film to the flexible transparent backing film comprises applying the color correction film to the release layer.

14. The method of claim 11 , wherein the color correction film comprises quantum dots.

15. The method of claim 11 , wherein the flexible transparent backing film is a continuous roll.

16. The method of claim 11 , wherein the color correction film is pre-shaped into a plurality of patches prior to locally heating.

17. The method of claim 11 , wherein the color correction film is a continuous film.

18. The method of claim 11 , wherein the display comprises a pixel structure comprising a green micro light emitting diode device, a first blue micro light emitting diode device, and a second blue micro light emitting diode device.

19. The method of claim 18 , wherein the patch of the color correction film is ejected onto a portion of the display over the second blue micro light emitting diode device.

20. The method of claim 19 , wherein the patch of the color correction film converts blue light from the second blue micro light emitting diode device to red light.
