Small-Pitch LED Display Technology Innovation Path and Commercial Value: From Technological Progress to Industrial Ecosystem Construction

Abstract

This article explores the development of small-pitch LED display technology, analyzing its evolution and market applications from three dimensions: technological innovation, business models, and industrial ecosystem. On the technical side, optimizations in epitaxy and chip technology, advancements in mass transfer technology, and full-color solutions drive pixel pitch reduction to micron levels, enhancing display performance. Business models include vertical integration, specialized division of labor, and technology licensing, each adapting to different market needs. In the industrial ecosystem, Chinese enterprises form competitive advantages through patent accumulation and supply chain optimization, but face challenges in technical standardization and cost control. The study shows that small-pitch LED technology, through continuous innovation, is reshaping the display industry landscape and will expand applications in professional displays, commercial advertising, and other fields in the future, promoting a display era of higher resolution and more efficient performance. According to the 2025 market outlook, the Micro LED chip market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 93% to $744.7 million.
