Laser-Assisted High-throughput microLED Integration | Holst / TNO
Speaker: Gari Arutinov Compay: Holst/TNO .With the growing demand for ever-smaller devices, such as mini- and microLED displays with higher resolution rates, there is an unstoppable trend toward the miniaturization of components. High-speed, mass-production of these electronics is getting more and more difficult because the handling and accurate placement of these tiny components is very challenging. Each component needs to be carefully selected, transferred, and then accurately placed and assembled with interconnects – all at lightning speeds. As conventional industrial equipment fails to deposit ultrafine patterns of die attach material and handle such tiny components at required high rates, this calls for the development of alternative high-throughput assembly technologies. At Holst Centre, we have developed laser-assisted processes enabling high-throughput flip-chip integration of microLEDs. More specifically, we demonstrate the capability of high-throughout printing of die attach materials (solder pastes and conductive glues) at sub-20µm resolution and highly-selective and accurate mass transfer of microLEDs at assembly precision of 1µm (lateral) and 1° (rotation) and >99.9% yield SAVE THE DATE...

Towards Roll-to-Roll Manufacturing of Flexible Perovskite Solar Cells | Solliance
The scalable slot-die coating methods adopted within TNO enable fabrication of efficient perovskite solar devices with intrinsic stability using various material and layer combinations. Furthermore, several different encapsulation strategies are investigated to define a low-cost route to guarantee long term stable modules. Demonstration of a stable semi-transparent bifacial flexible perovskite module is a step forward on various applications, such as building- and vehicle-integrated PV (BIPV & VIPV) and noise barriers on highways. In this talk, we will give an overview of our story towards realizing a stable, efficient, and bifacial perovskite processed via roll-to-roll slot-die coating technique. SAVE THE DATE...

From Experiment to Final Print: Understanding Self-Regulation PTC Heaters
Thibaut Soulestin, PhD ; Lead Application Engineer at Henkel Printed Electronics; thibaut.soulestin@henkel.com Henkel Adhesive Technologies has developed a large material portfolio of conductive inks and coatings suitable for printed electronics technology. Our portfolio offers material solutions ideal for various smart surface technologies, including self-regulating foil heaters. Self- regulating foil heaters are enabled by Henkel’s Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC) inks in combination with silver and dielectric inks. Understanding the origin of the PTC effect, typical characterizations, and basic design rules enable our customers to reveal the full potential of this technology. 1. Introduction to Henkel Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC) carbon inks Different types of conductive polymer composites (CPC) exhibit positive temperature coefficient (PTC) properties. They have been extensively studied and some are commercially available. A vast majority is obtained by compounding a polymer binder with conductive fillers, mostly carbon-based. The increase in resistance of the conductive networks during heating is caused by the thermal expansion of the polymer and the change in the distance between the conductive fillers. The PTC effect usually occurs during the phase transition of the polymer matrix, the glass transition, or the melting. After the maximum PTC effect, if the temperature keeps rising, a negative temperature coefficient (NTC) effect can be observed due to th...
