The laser lift-off (LLO) process was employed to fabricate a monochromatic GaN-based green micro-light-emitting-diode (Micro-LED) 14*14 arrays grown on pattern sapphire substrate (PSS) in this research. A new experimental phenomenon and internal mechanism of some epitaxial residues on the top and sidewalls of PSS protrusion after laser stripping were deeply discussed. In addition, the reasons for the formation of micro lattice dislocation of epitaxial layer crystal caused by laser were also analyzed. The leakage current of the chip array devices after LLO was more than 200 times higher than the device before LLO at the same voltage, but the light output current efficiency was discovered to be 109.7% higher under the 500 cd / m2 brightness. The results indicate peak wavelength was blue shift 3 nm once the LLO process had been performed. Furthermore, the optical pattern of green LED array from a "heart-shaped" distribution before LLO was changed into the maximum intensity directly above the array devices. The luminous angle was also reduced from ±75° to ± 65°, which indicates that the collimation of the light after LLO process was increased.The results are of high importance for understanding the optical properties of Micro-LED array devices after LL.
In modern high-intensity ultrafast laser processing, detecting the focal position of the working laser beam, at which the intensity is the highest and the beam diameter is the lowest, and immediately locating the target sample at that point are challenging tasks. A system that allows in-situ real-time focus determination and fabrication using a high-power laser has been in high demand among both engineers and scientists. Conventional techniques require the complicated mathematical theory of wave optics, employing interference as well as diffraction phenomena to detect the focal position; however, these methods are ineffective and expensive for industrial application. Moreover, these techniques could not perform detection and fabrication simultaneously. In this paper, we propose an optical design capable of detecting the focal point and fabricating complex patterns on a planar sample surface simultaneously. In-situ real-time focus detection is performed using a bandpass filter, which only allows for the detection of laser transmission. The technique enables rapid, non-destructive, and precise detection of the focal point. Furthermore, it is sufficiently simple for application in both science and industry for mass production, and it is expected to contribute to the next generation of laser equipment, which can be used to fabricate micro-patterns with high complexity.
