Fundamental Challenges in Micro LED Display Technology

Manufacturing cost is the highest risk for µLED displays. µLED display cost is composed of backplane and frontplane costs. Backplane cost may be similar to OLED displays. The major cost contributors for frontplane are epitaxy, transfer, and defect management. Here, the technology requirements for manufacturing high performance, cost-effective µLED displays are discussed.
