摘要： Sub-micron pattern delineation, importantly in the fabrication of large scale integrated devices, is based on a patterned photocathode. Functionally, the photocathode plays the role of the mask in competing systems, either in proximity printing or in projection. In operation, the photocathode is illuminated by ultraviolet radiation to release electrons which are brought to focus on a resist-coated wafer with assistance of a uniform magnetic field together with an accelerating applied voltage.

摘要： A thermal management system for reducing or eliminating heat-mediated degradation of LED performance and/or operating life. The system may include a thermal controller arranged to respond to an LED operating condition, and to responsively limit temperature in the LED. The thermal controller in one implementation includes a bypass circuit containing a bypass control element, such as a varistor, Zener diode, or antifuse device, and arranged to divert current from flowing to the LED so that the LED remains in a cool state, e.g., below 75° C. The system may be arranged to (I) at least partially attenuate the power supplied to an LED so as to reduce heat generation in such LED and maintain the LED below a threshold temperature and/or (II) remove heat from the LED to maintain temperature of the LED below a threshold temperature.

摘要： A microelectronic assembly in which a semiconductor device structure is directionally positioned on an off-axis substrate. In an illustrative implementation, a laser diode is oriented on a GaN substrate wherein the GaN substrate includes a GaN (0001) surface off-cut from the direction predominantly towards either the or the family of directions. For a off-cut substrate, a laser diode cavity may be oriented along the direction parallel to lattice surface steps of the substrate in order to have a cleaved laser facet that is orthogonal to the surface lattice steps. For a off-cut substrate, the laser diode cavity may be oriented along the direction orthogonal to lattice surface steps of the substrate in order to provide a cleaved laser facet that is aligned with the surface lattice steps.

摘要： A microelectronic device that in operation generates or includes component(s) that generate heat, in which the device comprises a heat conversion medium that converts such heat into a light emission having a shorter wavelength than such heat, to thereby cool the device and dissipate the unwanted heat by such light output. The heat conversion medium can include an upconverting luminophoric material, e.g., an anti-Stokes phosphor or phosphor composition. The provision of such heat conversion medium enables thermal management of microelectronic devices, e.g., optoelectronic devices, to be achieved in an efficient manner, to prolong the operational service life of devices such as LEDs, laser diodes, etc. that are degraded in performance by excessive heat generation in their operation.

摘要： A substrate comprising a trench lateral epitaxial overgrowth structure including a trench cavity, wherein the trench cavity includes a growth-blocking layer or patterned material supportive of a coalescent Pendeo layer thereon, on at least a portion of an inside surface of the trench. Such substrate is suitable for carrying out lateral epitaxial overgrowth to form a bridged lateral overgrowth formation overlying the trench cavity. The bridged lateral overgrowth formation provides a substrate surface on which epitaxial layers can be grown in the fabrication of microelectronic devices such as laser diodes, high electron mobility transistors, ultraviolet light emitting diodes, and other devices in which low dislocation density is critical. The epitaxial substrate structures of the invention can be formed without the necessity for deep trenches, such as are required in conventional Pendeo epitaxial overgrowth structures.

摘要： A cathode structure suitable for a flat panel display is provided with coated emitters. The emitters are formed with material, typically nickel, capable of growing to a high aspect ratio. These emitters are then coated with carbon containing material for improving the chemical robustness and reducing the work function. One coating process is a DC plasma deposition process in which acetylene is pumped through a DC plasma reactor to create a DC plasma for coating the cathode structure. An alternative coating process is to electrically deposit raw carbon-based material onto the surface of the emitters, and subsequently reduce the raw carbon-based material to the carbon containing material. Work function of coated emitters is typically reduced by about 0.8 to 1.0 eV.
