  • Patent number: 8940562
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides the ability to produce backplanes for AMLCD and AMOLED. Specifically, each and every component of the backplanes can be printed. Depending on the resolution and screen size of the displays, backplanes can include over a million different components that must be printed that include components of the thin film transistor (TFT) and electrodes to address each of those TFTs. Even a slight misregistry of components during printing can lead to failure of one or more pixels, potentially rendering the entire display unsuitable for use. The present disclosure provides the ability to reproducibly and accurately print each and every component of the backplane for both AMLCD and AMOLED. The ability to completely print backplanes provides numerous advantages, such as reduced costs, improved throughput, more environmental friendliness, and the like.

  • Publication number: 20140353700
    Abstract: A method for forming a light emitting device includes forming a monocrystalline III-V emissive layer on a monocrystalline substrate and forming a first doped layer on the emissive layer. A first contact is deposited on the first doped layer. The monocrystalline substrate is removed from the emissive layer by a mechanical process. A second doped layer is formed on the emissive layer on a side from which the substrate has been removed. The second doped layer has a dopant conductivity opposite that of the first doped layer. A second contact is deposited on the second doped layer.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of assembling VCSEL chips (1) on a sub-mount (2). A de-wetting layer (13) is deposited on a connecting side of the VCSEL chips (1) which is to be connected to the sub-mount (2). A further de-wetting layer (13) is deposited on a connecting side of the sub-mount (2) which is to be connected to the VCSEL chips (1). The de-wetting layers (13) are deposited with a patterned design or are patterned after depositing to define connecting areas (21) on the sub-mount (2) and the VCSEL chips (1). A solder (15) is applied to the connecting areas (21) of at least one of the two connecting sides. The VCSEL chips (1) are placed on the sub-mount (2) and soldered to the sub-mount (2) to electrically and mechanically connect the VCSEL chips (1) and the sub-mount (2). With the proposed method a high alignment accuracy of the VCSEL chips (1) on the sub-mount (2) is achieved without time consuming measures.
