Speaker: Dr. Christopher (Chris) A. Bower, Chief Technology Officer, X-Celeprint Limited
Title: Making microLED Displays, Mass Transfer with Elastomer Stamps for microLED Displays

Abstract: Displays that use direct light emission from microscale inorganic light emitting diodes (µILEDs) have the potential to be very bright and also very power efficient. High-throughput assembly technologies that accurately and cost-effectively form assemblies of µILEDs onto display substrates with high yield are key enablers for µILED displays. Transfer-printing with elastomer stamps is a candidate assembly technology for making µILEDs displays. A variety of µILED displays have been designed and fabricated by micro-transfer-printing, including glass and plastic passive matrix displays and active matrix displays utilizing transfer printed integrated circuits.

Speaker Biography: Dr. Christopher (Chris) A. Bower is the Chief Technology Officer at X-Celeprint Limited, a company founded to develop and commercialize advanced micro assembly technologies. He was formerly a Technical Manager at Semprius, Inc., where he led the team responsible for micro-transfer-printing and wafer-level-packaging of advanced microscale solar cells. His experience includes three years of research and development on three-dimensionally integrated circuits at RTI International and four years of research on nanotechnology and photonics devices at Bell Labs and InPlane Photonics, Inc. Chris received a Ph.D. degree in physics from the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, in 2000, where his graduate studies focused on the synthesis and novel properties of carbon nanotubes. His interests include three-dimensional integration of integrated circuits, heterogeneous integration of compound semiconductors onto non-native substrates and the fabrication of low-cost, large-format electronics using novel assembly methods. He is author on over ninety scientific publications and has filed over forty patents.
