Description
Processing method of laser direct-engraving gray scale micro-nano structure, microLED chip and MicroLED brightness calibration system Technical Field The invention relates to the technical field of MicroLED manufacturing, in particular to a laser direct-engraving gray scale micro-nano structure processing method, a MicroLED chip and a MicroLED brightness calibration system. Background MicroLED (micro light emitting diode) display technology is regarded as a core direction of next generation display technology because of advantages of high brightness, high contrast, low power consumption, long lifetime, and the like. In high-end application fields, such as near-eye display, oversized 8K/16K screen and high-end vehicle display, extremely severe requirements are placed on display uniformity, and brightness non-uniformity among millions of pixels is usually required to be controlled within +/-1.5% or even +/-1%. However, achieving such high brightness uniformity during the MicroLED manufacturing process presents a significant challenge, and the prior art has mainly presented the following bottlenecks: Due to the non-uniformity of epitaxial wafer growth and inherent precision limitations of mass transfer processes, there is a significant difference in luminous efficiency even for MicroLED chips produced on the same wafer and transferred to the same backplate. The actual measurement shows that the brightness deviation of the untreated pixel array can reach +/-10% to +/-15%, so that 'bright spots' or 'dark spots' which can be distinguished by naked eyes are formed in a display picture, and the visual experience and the product grade are seriously influenced. To cope with the above-mentioned differences, conventional solutions rely mainly on electrical testing and optical sorting. That is, before or after large-scale transfer, a large number MicroLED of chips are tested, and the chips are classified into tens or even hundreds of grades according to parameters such as brightness, wavelength and the like, and then the chips of the same grade are assembled together. The method has the obvious defects that firstly, the sorting process is complex, the process time and the equipment cost are greatly increased, secondly, the sorting cannot create consistency, only the existing deviation is classified, the system-level yield is usually only 90% -95%, and about 5% -10% of chips are discarded due to the fact that the chips cannot be matched, and according to industry estimation, the overall manufacturing cost can be increased by more than 20%. In view of the foregoing, there is a need in the art for a pixel-by-pixel brightness calibration method that enables non-contact, high precision, high efficiency and no impact on optoelectronic performance and reliability of MicroLED arrays integrated on a backplane after mass transfer. Disclosure of Invention The invention provides a processing method of a laser direct-engraving gray scale micro-nano structure, microLED chips and a MicroLED brightness calibration system, which can realize the pixel-by-pixel brightness calibration of a MicroLED array by a non-contact and high-precision physical processing mode after massive transfer so as to replace the traditional low-efficiency method relying on screening and electrical adjustment. In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a method for processing a laser direct-engraving gray scale micro-nano structure for MicroLED brightness calibration, comprising: S1, brightness detection and map generation, namely performing pixel-by-pixel brightness detection on a MicroLED array subjected to huge transfer to obtain an actual measurement brightness value of each pixel And based on the target brightness valueCalculating the brightness deviation value deltaGenerating a brightness deviation map; s2, calculating gray scale processing parameters, namely according to a mapping relation alpha=f (h) between a prestored microstructure height h and a brightness attenuation rate alpha, aiming at delta in the brightness deviation mapping diagram A pixel of >0, calculating the desired microstructure height; S3, laser direct engraving forming based on calculatedDirectly engraving the surface corresponding to MicroLED pixels by adopting ultraviolet laser to form the microstructure heightA gray scale micro-nano structure of (a); S4, performing secondary brightness detection on the machined MicroLED array, and adjusting laser machining parameters for performing secondary brightness adjustment on pixels with brightness deviation still exceeding a preset tolerance range until the brightness consistency of the whole array meets the target requirement.
