Abstract: The present disclosure provides the ability to produce backplanes for AMLCD and AMOLED. Specifically, each and every component of the backplanes can be printed. Depending on the resolution and screen size of the displays, backplanes can include over a million different components that must be printed that include components of the thin film transistor (TFT) and electrodes to address each of those TFTs. Even a slight misregistry of components during printing can lead to failure of one or more pixels, potentially rendering the entire display unsuitable for use. The present disclosure provides the ability to reproducibly and accurately print each and every component of the backplane for both AMLCD and AMOLED. The ability to completely print backplanes provides numerous advantages, such as reduced costs, improved throughput, more environmental friendliness, and the like.
