    Abstract: A method and system is provided to extend operational life of a mirror array of an image generating system, wherein the image generating system further includes a high intensity power light source to cause light to impinge on the mirror array, sufficient to cause deleterious plastic deformation of associated hinges of the mirror array, and an image output generating section configured to receive light from the mirror array. Image date is received by the image generating system image data to control mirrors of the mirror array and to generate an output image. A required level of illumination is provided from the mirror array to the image output generating section over a predetermined time period, in accordance with the received image data. Then during at least a portion of the same predetermined time period of providing the required level of illumination from the mirror array to the image output generating section, de-stress switching operations are performed for selected ones of the mirrors of the mirror array to reduce the plastic deformation of the associated hinges. Next, an output image is generated based on the received image data, wherein the de-stress switching operations occurring during at least a portion of the providing of the desired level of illumination is undetected.

    Abstract: A micro-assembly system includes a reservoir that stores a supply of chiplets suspended in a suspension fluid. Each of the chiplets has a bottom major surface that defines a right side down orientation. The system includes a delivery surface or belt that delivers the chiplets from the reservoir to an assembly surface. The system includes a micro assembler that may arrange the first subset of the chiplets in a pattern on the assembly surface. The micro assembler moves the first subset of chiplets towards a subsequent assembly stage. The micro assembler has an array of field generators fixed relative to the assembly surface that move the first subset of the chiplets along the assembly surface in response to signals applied to each of the field generators.

    Abstract: A system includes a separation tool that separates a carrier wafer to form a plurality of chiplet carriers. The carrier wafer having sheets of thin film material attached. A sensor and processor of the system determine an orientation of the portions of the sheets of thin film material relative to the chiplets to determine a mapping therebetween. A fluid carrier of the system places the chiplet carriers on an assembly surface in a disordered pattern. The system includes a micro assembler that arranges the chiplet carriers from the disordered pattern to a predetermined pattern based on the mapping. A carrier of the system transfers the portions of the thin film material from the chiplet carriers to a target substrate.

    Abstract: A method of manufacturing an intermediate transfer surface includes depositing an array of etch stops on a conductive surface, etching the conductive surface to form mesas of the conductive surface separated by gaps, and coating the mesas with a dielectric coating. A method of performing microassembly includes forming an assembly of particles on an assembly plane, providing an intermediate transfer surface having an array of electrodes, applying a bias to the intermediate transfer surface to form an electrostatic field between the assembly plane and the intermediate transfer surface, and moving the intermediate transfer surface towards the assembly surface until the electrostatic field strength is strong enough to cause transfer of the assembly to the intermediate transfer surface.

    Abstract: An apparatus includes a transfer substrate with two or more transfer elements. Each of the transfer elements includes an adhesion element having a first surface adhesion at a first temperature and a second surface adhesion at a second temperature. The second surface adhesion less than the first surface adhesion. Each transfer element has a thermal element operable to change a temperature of the adhesion element in response to an input. A controller is coupled to provide the inputs to the thermal elements of the two or more transfer elements to cause a subset of the transfer elements to selectably hold objects to and release the objects from the transfer substrate in response to changes between the first and second surface adhesion of the subset of the transfer elements.
