Electrostatic transfer head array assemblies and methods of transferring and bonding an array of micro devices to a receiving substrate are described. In an embodiment, a method includes picking up an array of micro devices from a carrier substrate with an electrostatic transfer head assembly supporting an array of electrostatic transfer heads, contacting a receiving substrate with the array of micro devices, transferring energy from the electrostatic transfer head assembly to bond the array of micro devices to the receiving substrate, and releasing the array of micro devices onto the receiving substrate.
