Abstract

The present invention relates to a transfer technology using a technique of transferring LED chips formed on a wafer to another carrier substrate and display panel, a transfer resin, and an apparatus for transferring an LED chip and a display panel using a resin which expands when light is applied. An apparatus for transferring an LED chip in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, comprises: a substrate and a resin layer, formed on the substrate, which forms a photo-deteriorating layer and expands at a predetermined temperature. An LED chip is disposed on the resin layer and a lower part of the LED chip is placed in a state of being embedded in the resin layer by a clip-up structure. An adhesive force of the LED chip located in the photo-deteriorating layer is offset so that the LED chip is peeled off or transferred.

Claims (17)

1 . A resin for transferring an LED chip, which is prepared by mixing a base resin, an organic solvent, and a photoactive agent, and to transfer an LED chip to a substrate by making adhesive force of the LED chip adhered to the resin to be broken or offset by expanding the resin by heating after exposure by using expandability of the photoactive agent, wherein the transfer resin further includes a solvent, the base resin is 30 to 35 wt %, the organic solvent is 45 to 50 wt %, the solvent is 5 to 10 wt %, and the photoactive agent is 10 to 15 wt %.

2 . The resin for transferring an LED chip of claim 1 , wherein a specific region of the transfer resin is exposed by mask and UV irradiation to form a photo-deteriorating layer, and the photo-deteriorating layer is expanded by applying predetermined heat to selectively transfer only an LED chip located at the photo-deteriorating layer.

3 . The resin for transferring an LED chip of claim 1 , wherein the base resin is selected from at least one resin selected from a phenol resin, an epoxy resin, a UV resin, a polyester resin, a polyurethane resin, or an acrylic resin.

4 . The resin for transferring an LED chip of claim 1 , wherein the organic solvent is selected from at least one organic solvent selected from alcohols, petroleum-based materials, aromatic solvents, ketones, glycol ethers, acetates, and DMCs.

5 . The resin for transferring an LED chip of claim 1 , wherein a filler for reinforcing the adhesive force of the LED chip is added to the transfer resin.

6 . A resin for transferring an LED chip of claim 1 , which is prepared by mixing a base resin, an organic solvent, and a photoactive agent, and to transfer an LED chip to a substrate by making adhesive force of the LED chip adhered to the resin to be broken or offset by expanding the resin by heating after exposure by using expandability of the photoactive agent, wherein the photoactive agent is selected from Oxime-ester based, s-Triazine based, or Phosphineoxide based photoinitiators.

7 . The resin for transferring an LED chip of claim 6 , wherein a specific region of the transfer resin is exposed by mask and UV irradiation to form a photo-deteriorating layer, and the photo-deteriorating layer is expanded by applying predetermined heat to selectively transfer only an LED chip located at the photo-deteriorating layer.

8 . The resin for transferring an LED chip of claim 6 , wherein the transfer resin further includes a solvent, the base resin is 30 to 35 wt %, the organic solvent is 45 to 50 wt %, the solvent is 5 to 10 wt %, and the photoactive agent is 10 to 15 wt %.

9 . The resin for transferring an LED chip of claim 6 , wherein the base resin is selected from at least one resin selected from a phenol resin, an epoxy resin, a UV resin, a polyester resin, a polyurethane resin, or an acrylic resin.

10 . The resin for transferring an LED chip of claim 6 , wherein the organic solvent is selected from at least one organic solvent selected from alcohols, petroleum-based materials, aromatic solvents, ketones, glycol ethers, acetates, and DMCs.

11 . The resin for transferring an LED chip of claim 6 , wherein a filler for reinforcing the adhesive force of the LED chip is added to the transfer resin.

12 . A resin for transferring an LED chip, which is prepared by mixing a base resin, an organic solvent, and a photoactive agent, and to transfer an LED chip to a substrate by making adhesive force of the LED chip adhered to the resin to be broken or offset by expanding the resin by heating after exposure by using expandability of the photoactive agent, wherein ultrapure (DI) water is added to the transfer resin.

13 . The resin for transferring an LED chip of claim 12 , wherein a specific region of the transfer resin is exposed by mask and UV irradiation to form a photo-deteriorating layer, and the photo-deteriorating layer is expanded by applying predetermined heat to selectively transfer only an LED chip located at the photo-deteriorating layer.

14 . The resin for transferring an LED chip of claim 12 , wherein the transfer resin further includes a solvent, the base resin is 30 to 35 wt %, the organic solvent is 45 to 50 wt %, the solvent is 5 to 10 wt %, and the photoactive agent is 10 to 15 wt %.

15 . The resin for transferring an LED chip of claim 12 , wherein the base resin is selected from at least one resin selected from a phenol resin, an epoxy resin, a UV resin, a polyester resin, a polyurethane resin, or an acrylic resin.

16 . The resin for transferring an LED chip of claim 12 , wherein the organic solvent is selected from at least one organic solvent selected from alcohols, petroleum-based materials, aromatic solvents, ketones, glycol ethers, acetates, and DMCs.

17 . The resin for transferring an LED chip of claim 12 , wherein a filler for reinforcing the adhesive force of the LED chip is added to the transfer resin.
