Abstract: A method is provided for fabricating piezoelectric plates. A sacrificial layer is formed overlying a growth substrate. A template layer, with openings exposing sacrificial layer surfaces, is formed over the sacrificial layer. An adhesion layer/first electrode stack is selectively deposited in the openings overlying the sacrificial layer surfaces, and a piezoelectric material formed in the openings overlying the stack. Then, a second electrode is formed overlying the piezoelectric material. Using the second electrode as a hardmask, the piezoelectric material is etched to form polygon-shaped structures, such as disks, attached to the sacrificial layer surfaces. After removing the template layer and annealing, the polygon-shaped structures are separated from the sacrificial layer. With the proper choice of growth substrate material, the annealing can be performed at a relatively high temperature.

Abstract: A fluidic assembly method is provided that uses a counterbore pocket structure. The method is based upon the use of a substrate with a plurality of counterbore pocket structures formed in the top surface, with each counterbore pocket structure having a through-hole to the substrate bottom surface. The method flows an ink with a plurality of objects over the substrate top surface. As noted above, the objects may be micro-objects in the shape of a disk. For example, the substrate may be a transparent substrate and the disks may be light emitting diode (LED) disks. Simultaneously, a suction pressure is created at the substrate bottom surface. In response to the suction pressure from the through-holes, the objects are drawn into the counterbore pocket structures. Also provided is a related fluidic substrate assembly.

Abstract: A method is provided for fabricating piezoelectric plates. A sacrificial layer is formed overlying a growth substrate. A template layer, with openings exposing sacrificial layer surfaces, is formed over the sacrificial layer. An adhesion layer/first electrode stack is selectively deposited in the openings overlying the sacrificial layer surfaces, and a piezoelectric material formed in the openings overlying the stack. Then, a second electrode is formed overlying the piezoelectric material. Using the second electrode as a hardmask, the piezoelectric material is etched to form polygon-shaped structures, such as disks, attached to the sacrificial layer surfaces. After removing the template layer and annealing, the polygon-shaped structures are separated from the sacrificial layer. With the proper choice of growth substrate material, the annealing can be performed at a relatively high temperature.

Abstract: A method is provided for forming a direct emission display. The method provides a transparent substrate with an array of wells formed in its top surface. A fluid stream is supplied to the substrate top surface comprising a plurality of top-contact light emitting diode (LED) disks. The wells are filled with the LED disks. A first array of electrically conductive lines is formed over the substrate top surface to connect with a first contact of each LED disk, and a second array of electrically conductive lines is formed over the substrate top surface to connect with a second contact of each LED disk. An insulator over the disk exposes an upper disk (e.g., p-doped) contact region. A via is formed through the disk, exposing a center contact region of a lower (e.g., n-doped) disk contact region. Also provided are a top-contact LED disk and direct emission display.

Abstract: A method is provided for fabricating a thin-film electronic device employing a piezoelectric plate. The method provides a plurality of piezoelectric plates, and a substrate with electronic devices, each electronic device including a top surface well. A piezoelectric plate suspension is formed and flowed over the substrate. In response to the piezoelectric plate suspension flow, piezoelectric plates are captured in the top surface wells. The electric device top surface wells have well bottom surfaces, with bottom electrical contacts formed on the bottom surfaces. Thus, the capture of a piezoelectric plate in a top surface well entails interfacing a piezoelectric plate electrode, either the first electrode or the second electrode, to the bottom electrical contact. Subsequent to capturing the piezoelectric plates in the top surface wells, a thin-film process forms a conductive line overlying the exposed piezoelectric device electrode (i.e., the electrode not connected to the bottom electrical contact).
