Using underfill or flux to promote placing and parallel bonding of light emitting diodes
Embodiments relate to using flux or underfill as a trapping layer for temporarily attaching light emitting diodes (LEDs) to a substrate and heating to simultaneously bond multiple LEDs onto the substrate. The flux or underfill may be selectively coated at the ends of electrodes of the LEDs prior to placing the LEDs on the substrate. Due to adhesive properties of the flux or underfill, multiple LEDs can be placed on and attached to the substrate prior to performing the bonding process. Once LEDs are placed on the substrate, the flux or underfill facilitates formation of metallic contacts between electrodes of the LED and contacts of the substrate during the bonding process. By using the flux or underfill, the formation of metallic contacts can be performed even without applying pressure.
High-precision printed structures
An example of a printed structure comprises a target substrate and a structure protruding from a surface of the target substrate. A component comprising a component substrate separate and independent from the target substrate is disposed in alignment with the structure on the surface of the target substrate within 1 micron of the structure. An example method of making a printed structure comprises providing the target substrate with the structure protruding from the target substrate, a transfer element, and a component adhered to the transfer element. The component comprises a component substrate separate and independent from the target substrate. The transfer element and adhered component move vertically toward the surface of the target substrate and horizontally towards the structure until the component physically contacts the structure or is adhered to the surface of the target substrate. The transfer element is separated from the component.
Transfer substrate utilizing selectable surface adhesion transfer elements
An apparatus includes a transfer substrate with two or more transfer elements. Each of the transfer elements includes an adhesion element having a first surface adhesion at a first temperature and a second surface adhesion at a second temperature. The second surface adhesion less than the first surface adhesion. Each transfer element has a thermal element operable to change a temperature of the adhesion element in response to an input. A controller is coupled to provide the inputs to the thermal elements of the two or more transfer elements to cause a subset of the transfer elements to selectably hold objects to and release the objects from the transfer substrate in response to changes between the first and second surface adhesion of the subset of the transfer elements.
