Abstract:
An apparatus for positioning micro-devices on a destination substrate includes a first support to hold a destination substrate, a second support to provide or hold a transfer body having a surface to receive an adhesive layer, a light source to generate a light beam, a mirror configured to adjustably position the light beam on the adhesive layer on the transfer body, and a controller. The controller is configured to cause the light source to generate the light beam and adjust the mirror to position the light beam on the adhesive layer so as to selectively expose one or more portions of the adhesive layer to create one or more neutralized portions. The transfer body and the destination substrate are moved away from each other and one or more micro-devices corresponding to the one or more neutralized portions of the adhesive layer remain on the destination substrate.

Claim (Index 11):
A method of surface mounting micro-devices, comprising:\n transferring a first plurality of micro-devices from a donor substrate to a first transfer surface, wherein transferring includes adhering the first plurality of micro-devices to a first adhesive layer on the first transfer surface; transferring the first plurality of micro-devices from the first transfer surface to a second transfer surface, wherein transferring includes adhering the first plurality of micro-devices to a second adhesive layer on the second transfer surface, releasing the plurality of micro-devices a column at a time from the first transfer surface by selectively neutralizing regions of the first adhesive layer to detach the column of micro-devices from the first adhesive layer, and moving the first transfer surface relative to the second transfer surface between transferring each column so as to establish the columns at a first pitch; and transferring the first plurality of micro-devices from the second transfer surface to a destination substrate, wherein transferring includes releasing the plurality of micro-devices a row at a time from the second transfer surface by selectively neutralizing regions of the second adhesive layer to detach the row of micro-devices from the first adhesive layer, and moving the second transfer surface relative to the destination substrate between transferring each row so as to establish the rows at a second pitch.
