Abstract: 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.

Abstract: An optical touchscreen assembly may employ a photonic chip packaged with a chip surface at an angle inclined between horizontal and vertical orientations. An inclined paddle sawn flat no-leads (IPSFN) package may be affixed to a cover glass surface along a perimeter of a display. IPSFN packages may incorporate a photo-emitter chip and a photo-detector chip that may be inclined for a desired angle of incidence relative to the cover glass. A CMOS integrated optical transceiver package may include inclined photonic chips and a non-inclined CMOS chip having at least one of a photo-emitter driver, or a photo-detector TIA and/or ADC. A chip package lead frame may include cantilevered paddle tabs amenable to controlled deflection during package assembly. An inclined packaging assembly method may include attaching a chip to a lead frame paddle and form pressing the lead frame to incline the chip to a desired angle before encapsulation.

Abstract: An optical connector includes a two-dimensional array of lenses to couple optical signals between an optical integrated circuit and an optical fiber. The optical connector has a total-internal-reflection or mirror surface that redirects light between lenses at different surfaces of the optical connector. The lens arrays collimate light directed toward the reflection surface and focuses light received from the reflection surface. The two-dimensional array and prism allows for a low-profile, high-density optical connector based on free space optical light propagation.
