Patent number: 10242892Abstract: Micro pick-and-bond heads, assembly methods, and device assemblies. In, embodiments, micro pick-and-bond heads transfer micro device elements, such as (micro) LEDs, en masse from a source substrate to a target substrate, such as a LED display substrate. Anchor and release structures on the source substrate enable device elements to be separated from a source substrate, while pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA) enables device elements to be temporarily affixed to pedestals of a micro pick-and-bond head. Once the device elements are permanently affixed to a target substrate, the PSA interface may be defeated through peeling and/or thermal decomposition of an interface layer.Type: GrantFiled: October 17, 2014Date of Patent: March 26, 2019Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Peter L.

Patent number: 10217917Abstract: The device according to the invention comprises a nanostructured LED with a first group of nanowires protruding from a first area of a substrate and a contacting means in a second area of the substrate. Each nanowire of the first group of nanowires comprises a p-i-n-junction and a top portion of each nanowire or at least one selection of nanowires is covered with a light-reflecting contact layer. The contacting means of the second area is in electrical contact with the bottom of the nanowires, the light-reflecting contact layer being in electrical contact with the contacting means of the second area via the p-i-n-junction. Thus when a voltage is applied between the contacting means of the second area and the light-reflecting contact layer, light is generated within the nanowire. On top of the light-reflecting contact layer, a first group of contact pads for flip-chip bonding can be provided, distributed and separated to equalize the voltage across the layer to reduce the average serial resistance.Type: GrantFiled: March 10, 2017Date of Patent: February 26, 2019Assignee: GLO ABInventors: Steven Konsek, Jonas Ohlsson, Yourii Martynov, Peter Jesper Hanberg
