Background:

Quantum-dot light-emitting diodes (QLEDs) are advanced display technologies.
Conventional QLEDs often face limitations in optical performance and efficiency.

Purpose of the Study:

To demonstrate a novel top-emitting QLED device structure with an optical microcavity.
To evaluate the performance enhancement of microcavity-based top-emitting QLEDs compared to conventional designs.
To fabricate a micro QLED device array for microdisplay applications.

Main Methods:

Fabrication of a normal-structure QLED device using specific material layers: [ITO/Ag/ITO anode]/PEDOT:PSS/PVK/QDs/[ZnO nanoparticles]/Ag/MoO₃.
Design of a semi-transparent MoO₃-capped Ag cathode and a reflective ITO/metal/ITO (IMI) anode to create an optical microcavity.
Fabrication of a 1.49-inch micro QLED panel with 86,400 devices on a low-temperature polysilicon (LTPS) backplane.

Main Results:

The microcavity-based top-emitting QLED exhibited significantly enhanced optical properties.
Observed improvements include approximately 500% higher luminance and 300% higher current efficiency.
A narrower emission bandwidth was also achieved compared to conventional bottom-emitting QLEDs.

Conclusions:

The top-emitting QLED structure with an integrated optical microcavity offers substantial performance benefits.
The successful fabrication of a large-scale micro QLED panel validates its potential for next-generation microdisplay technology.
This approach represents a promising direction for advancing microdisplay applications.
