An electronic device is provided, including a substrate, a plurality of bonding pads, and a plurality of light emitting members. The bonding pads are disposed on the substrate. The light emitting members are disposed on the bonding pads. The light emitting members include a first pair of adjacent light-emitting members, a second pair of adjacent light-emitting members, and a third pair of adjacent light-emitting members. The first pair of adjacent light-emitting members, the second pair of adjacent light-emitting members, and the third pair of adjacent light-emitting members are arranged along the first direction in sequence. The first pair of adjacent light-emitting members has a first pitch, the second pair of adjacent light-emitting members has a second pitch, and the third pair of adjacent light-emitting members has a third pitch. The third pitch is greater than the second pitch, and the second pitch is greater than the first pitch.

Apparatus and methods are disclosed for transferring solder to a substrate. A substrate belt moves one or more substrates in a belt direction. A decal has one or more through holes in a hole pattern that hold solder. Each of the solder holes can align with respective locations on one of the substrates. An ultrasonic head produces an ultrasonic vibration in the solder in a longitudinal direction perpendicular to the belt direction. The ultrasonic head and substrate can be moved together in the longitudinal direction to maintain the ultrasonic head in contact with the solder while the ultrasonic head applies the ultrasonic vibration. Various methods are disclosed including methods of transferring the solder with or without external heating.

Die stacks and methods of making die stacks with very thin dies are disclosed. The die surfaces remain flat within a 5 micron tolerance despite the thinness of the die and the process steps of making the die stack. A residual flux height is kept below 50% of the spacing distance between adjacent surfaces or structures, e.g. in the inter-die spacing.

A method for transferring a plurality of die operatively associated with a transfer apparatus to a glass substrate to form a circuit component. The transfer occurs by positioning the glass substrate to face a first surface of a die carrier carrying multiple die. A reciprocating transfer member thrusts against a second surface of the die carrier to actuate the transfer member thereby causing a localized deflection of the die carrier in a direction of the surface of the glass substrate to position an initial die proximate to the glass substrate. The initial die transfers directly to a circuit trace on the glass substrate. At least one of the die carrier or the transfer member is then shifted such that the transfer member aligns with a subsequent die on the first surface of the die carrier. The acts of actuating, transferring, and shifting are repeated to effectuate a transfer of the multiple die onto the glass substrate.

A dipping apparatus includes a squeegee device and a plate for forming a flux film out of flux. A surface of the plate has a rough surface with a nano-level arithmetically average roughness. The dipping apparatus is configured in such a way that the squeegee device and the plate are moved relatively to each other, and the flux is fed from the squeegee device to the rough surface of the plate.

A method and system for heat bonding a chip to a substrate by means of heat bonding material disposed there between. At least the substrate is preheated from an initial temperature to an elevated temperature below a damage temperature of the substrate. A light pulse applied to the chip momentarily increases the chip temperature to a pulsed peak temperature below a peak damage temperature of the chip. The momentarily increased pulsed peak temperature of the chip causes a flow of conducted heat from the chip to the bonding material, causing the bonding material to form a bond.

A curable resin or adhesive composition includes at least one monomer, a photoinitiator capable of initiating polymerization of the monomer when exposed to light, and at least one energy converting material, preferably a phosphor, capable of producing light when exposed to radiation (typically X-rays). The material is particularly suitable for bonding components at ambient temperature in situations where the bond joint is not accessible to an external light source. An associated method includes: placing a polymerizable adhesive composition, including a photoinitiator and energy converting material, such as a down-converting phosphor, in contact with at least two components to be bonded to form an assembly; and, irradiating the assembly with radiation at a first wavelength, capable of conversion (down-conversion by the phosphor) to a second wavelength capable of activating the photoinitiator, to prepare items such as inkjet cartridges, wafer-to-wafer assemblies, semiconductors, integrated circuits, and the like.
