Abstract
A bonding apparatus includes an ultrasonic oscillator which generates ultrasonic vibration, a stage disposed under the ultrasonic oscillator, and an embossed sheet disposed between the ultrasonic oscillator and the stage. The embossed sheet includes a body and a plurality of protrusions protruding downward from a lower surface of the body which faces the stage.
Claims20
A bonding apparatus comprising:
- an ultrasonic oscillator which generates ultrasonic vibration;
- a stage disposed under the ultrasonic oscillator;
- and
- an embossed sheet disposed between the ultrasonic oscillator and the stage,
- wherein the embossed sheet includes:
- a body;
- and
- a plurality of protrusions protruding downward from a lower surface of the body which faces the stage, wherein the protrusions extend in a direction crossing an oscillating direction of an ultrasonic vibration of the ultrasonic oscillator,
- wherein the ultrasonic oscillator moves toward the stage, and the embossed sheet moves toward the stage by the ultrasonic oscillator to perform a bonding process, and
- the embossed sheet moves away from the stage after the bonding process is completed.

A bonding method comprising:
- disposing a data driver on a display panel disposed on a stage;
- disposing an embossed sheet over the data driver and an ultrasonic oscillator over the embossed sheet;
- bringing the ultrasonic oscillator into contact with the data driver through the embossed sheet by moving the ultrasonic oscillator downward to the data driver;
- and
- bonding the data driver to the display panel by generating ultrasonic vibration and heat from the ultrasonic oscillator,
- wherein the embossed sheet includes:
- a body;
- and
- a plurality of protrusions protruding downward from a lower surface of the body which faces the stage.
