Liquid-based assembly accelerates production of microLED displays

MicroLED displays have advantages over commercially available technologies, but are difficult to put together efficiently. Agitating microLED chiplets and a substrate together in fluid causes them to self‑assemble quickly and with high yield.

This is a summary of: Lee, D. et al. Fluidic self-assembly for MicroLED displays by controlled viscosity Nature https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-023-06167-5 (2023).
