  • Publication number: 20220285291
    Abstract: A micro-component module comprises a module substrate, a component disposed on the module substrate, and at least a portion of a module tether in contact with the module substrate. The module substrate can be flexible or can comprise an organic material, or both. The module tether can be more brittle and less flexible than the module substrate. The component can be less flexible than the module substrate and can comprise at least a portion of a component tether. An encapsulation layer can be disposed over the component and module substrate. The component can be disposed in a mechanically neutral stress plane of the micro-component module. A micro-component module system can comprise a micro-component module disposed on a flexible system substrate, for example by micro-transfer printing. A micro-component module can comprise an internal module cavity in the module substrate with internal module tethers physically connecting the module substrate to internal anchors.
