LEDforum 2016:Micro LED to create more value-added, reshape the industry chain face

TrendForce LEDinside of State Science and technology industry's brand LED (LED China online) today (9 / 30) held a "next generation display technology Micro LED LEDforum 2016, EPISTAR, Zhao Ling, invited Hondar, electrical technology, neptunium OSRAM Opto Semiconductors, accumulation of science and technology, Industrial Technology Research Institute, X-Celeprint, Leti and other domestic and international heavyweight companies and institutions to the development of Micro LED technology and future potential. LEDinside research associate Chu Yu Chao pointed out that not only can be used in MicroLED display technology, can also create more added value, and will reshape the industry chain face.

According to LEDinside estimates, from 2016 to 2021, LED industry CAGR of 2%, the overall growth of the industry has been limited. From the development of display technology, storage in ultra pointed out that with the rapid development of OLED technology, patent is mostly by Han factory master, if I am afraid it is difficult to catch up now into the development of MicroLED technology, in contrast, opened another development space.

Micro LED (micron) miniature size to micron level, not only every row element (pixel) can address control and single point drive light emitting, also has the advantages of high brightness, low power consumption, high resolution and color saturation, the future or even engage in flexible substrate to achieve flexible features such as the OLED like also, a wider range of applications more. LEDinside estimates, if the wearable device and display all replaced by a Micro LED display, the required capacity will be 50% of the world's existing LED production capacity. As far as we are most concerned about the smart phone market, if the future of the mobile phone panel full import Micro LED, you need to have four times the number of existing production capacity to meet.

However, Chu Chao pointed out that at this stage the development of Micro LED there are many technical bottlenecks to be broken, one of the most critical is the huge transfer (Mass) technology. In addition to the transfer of large amounts of micro technology can be used to transfer the micro LED, but also the transfer of small electronic components, including sensors.

Chu Chao said in Micro LED has enough space to integrate multiple sensors, if applied to the future of mobile device is displayed on the screen, is expected to integrate optical sensing, fingerprint touch sensing function, and this is the current OLED to the threshold of technology. Micro LED can not only be used for display technology, but also to create more value-added, greater development.
