  • Patent number: 11626548
    Abstract: A method for transferring electroluminescent structures onto a face, referred to as the accommodating face, of an accommodating substrate. The accommodating face is moreover provided with interconnections intended to individually address each of the structures. The electroluminescent structures are initially formed on a supporting substrate and are separated by tracks. It is then proposed in the present invention to form reflective walls, vertically above the tracks, which comprise a supporting polymer (the second polymer) supporting a metal film on its sides. Such an arrangement of reflective walls makes it possible to reduce the stresses exerted on the electroluminescent structures during the transfer method according to the present invention. Moreover, the reflective walls, within the meaning of the present invention, may be produced on all the electroluminescent structures resting on a supporting substrate.

  • Publication number: 20210028056
    Abstract: An electronic circuit including a semiconductor substrate having first and second opposite surfaces and electric insulation trenches. Each trench separates first and second portions of the substrate and includes electrically-insulating walls made of a first electrically-insulating material, extending from the first surface to the second surface, and a core made of a filling material, separated from the substrate by the walls. For at least one of the trenches, the trench walls include electrically-insulating portions made of the first electrically-insulating material protruding from the first or second surface outside of the substrate and/or the trench includes an electrically-insulating wall made of the first electrical-insulating material protruding from the first or second surface outside of the substrate and coupling the trench walls.
