Provided are a display panel, a preparation method thereof, and a display device. The display panel includes a plurality of sub-panels. Each sub-panel includes first substrate, second substrate, bezel adhesive located therebetween, a plurality of bank structures, and a plurality of light-emitting elements. At least one light-emitting element forms a pixel unit. Each bank structure is located between adjacent pixel units. Seaming adhesive is located between adjacent sub-panels. The sub-panels share a same first substrate, and the seaming adhesive is disposed on the same first substrate. The first substrate includes a display region and a non-display region surrounding the display region. The light-emitting elements and the bank structures are located in the display region, and the bezel adhesive is located in the non-display region. In this manner, splicing gaps between adjacent sub-panels can be effectively reduced, and thus the display effect of the display panel can be improved.

A printable component includes a component substrate and one or more electrical conductors. One or more electrically conductive connection posts protrudes from the component substrate to form an exposed electrical contact. Each connection post is electrically connected to at least one of the electrical conductors and one or more wicking posts protrude from the component substrate. The wicking post can be insulating. In certain embodiments, a printable component source wafer comprises a source wafer, a plurality of sacrificial portions separated by anchor portions formed in a sacrificial layer of the source wafer, and a plurality of printable components. Each printable component is disposed over a corresponding sacrificial portion and connected to an anchor portion by a tether. A destination substrate structure comprises a destination substrate having one or more electrically conductive contact pads, an adhesive layer disposed on the destination substrate, and one or more printable components.

Methods for reducing the junction temperature between an IC chip and its lid by including metal spacers in the TIM layer and the resulting devices are disclosed. Embodiments include providing a substrate, including integrated circuit devices, having front and back sides; forming vertical spacers on the backside of the substrate; providing a plate parallel to and spaced from the backside of the substrate; and forming a TIM layer, surrounding the vertical spacers, between the backside of the substrate and the plate.

The present disclosure is directed to a die having a metallized sidewall and methods of manufacturing the same. A contiguous metal layer is applied to each edge of a backside of a wafer. The wafer is cut at a base of a plurality of channels formed in the backside to create individual die each having a flange that is part of a sidewall of the die and includes a portion that is covered by the metal layer. When an individual die is coupled to a die pad, a semiconductive glue bonds the metal layer on the sidewall and a backside of the die to the die pad, which decreases the risk of delamination along the sides of the die. The flange also prevents the glue from contacting the active side of the die by acting as a barrier against adhesive creep of the glue up the sidewall of the die.
