The invention is directed towards enhanced systems and methods for employing a pulsed photon (or EM energy) source, such as but not limited to a laser, to electrically couple, bond, and/or affix the electrical contacts of a semiconductor device to the electrical contacts of another semiconductor devices. Full or partial rows of LEDs are electrically coupled, bonded, and/or affixed to a backplane of a display device. The LEDs may be μLEDs. The pulsed photon source is employed to irradiate the LEDs with scanning photon pulses. The EM radiation is absorbed by either the surfaces, bulk, substrate, the electrical contacts of the LED, and/or electrical contacts of the backplane to generate thermal energy that induces the bonding between the electrical contacts of the LEDs' electrical contacts and backplane's electrical contacts. The temporal and spatial profiles of the photon pulses, as well as a pulsing frequency and a scanning frequency of the photon source, are selected to control for adverse thermal effects.

An apparatus includes a product substrate having a transfer surface, and a semiconductor die defined, at least in part, by a first surface adjoined to a second surface that extends in a direction transverse to the first surface. The transfer surface includes ripples in a profile thereof such that an apex on an individual ripple is a point on a first plane and a trough on the individual ripple is a point on a second plane.

A chip support member supports the first chip and the second chip from the second surfaces, and a bridge handler is provided for inserting the bridge member through the opening of the chip handler and for placing the bridge member onto the first sets of terminals of the first chip and the second chip.

The amount of heat transmitted from the first center area to the center of the memory chip is smaller than that transmitted from the first peripheral area (A) to the peripheral edge of the memory chip. Thus, the bonding apparatus in which the center of a bonding member can be heated to a temperature lower than that at the peripheral edge can be provided.
