Research on Characteristics Matching of Micro-LED Devices

Abstract

This paper presents the design of a 40 × 40 micro-light-emitting (micro-LED) test array based on a 20 mm × 20 mm substrate. A study of the relationship between luminous brightness, driving current, and driving voltage revealed that the data voltages of the red, green, and blue micro-LED array from 0 to 255 grey levels are 0.31 V, 0.29 V, and 0.30 V, respectively, under the condition that the target brightness of the white field is 1000 nits and the color temperature is 9300 K. The brightness range of the red micro-LED array is 64.8–101.2%, the brightness range of the green micro-LED array is 66.5–102.8%, and the brightness range of the blue micro-LED array is 53.5–129.2%. In order to overcome the luminance nonuniformity, a grey level depth of 12 -bit is required. A 10T3C pixel driver circuit based on low-temperature polysilicon (LTPS) with a depth of 12 bits greyscale is designed and fabricated into the micro-LED display. A brightness uniformity of 84.1–97.1% can be achieved by brightness correction combined with a 12-bit greyscale depth system for micro-LED display. This provides a valuable reference point for subsequent improvements in the quality of micro-LED displays.
