Provided are a nano-scale LED assembly and a method for manufacturing the same. First, a nano-scale LED device that is independently manufactured may be aligned and connected to two electrodes different from each other to solve a limitation in which a nano-scale LED device having a nano unit is coupled to two electrodes different from each other in a stand-up state. Also, since the LED device and the electrodes are disposed on the same plane, light extraction efficiency of the LED device may be improved. Furthermore, the number of nano-scale LED devices may be adjusted. Second, since the nano-scale LED device does not stand up to be three-dimensionally coupled to upper and lower electrodes, but lies to be coupled to two electrodes different from each other on the same plane, the light extraction efficiency may be very improved. Also, since a separate layer is formed on a surface of the LED device to prevent the LED device and the electrode from being electrically short-circuited, defects of the LED electrode assembly may be minimized. Also, in preparation for the occurrence of the very rare defects of the LED device, the plurality of LED devices may be connected to the electrode to maintain the original function of the nano-scale LED electrode assembly.
Abstract:
The present disclosure is directed to orientation-independent device configuration and assembly. An electronic device may comprise conductive pads arranged concentrically on a surface of the device. The conductive pads on the device may mate with conductive pads in a device location in circuitry. Example conductive pads may include at least a first circular conductive pad and a second ring-shaped conductive pad arranged to concentrically surround the first conductive pad. The concentric arrangement of the conductive pads allows for orientation-independent placement of the device in the circuitry. In particular, the conductive pads of the device will mate correctly with the conductive pads of the circuitry regardless of variability in device orientation. In one embodiment, the device may also be configured for use with fluidic self-assembly (FSA). For example, a device housing may be manufactured with pockets that cause the device to attain neutral buoyancy during manufacture.

Abstract:
A strengthened semiconductor die substrate and package are disclosed. The substrate may include contact fingers formed with nonlinear edges. Providing a nonlinear contour to the contact finger edges reduces the mechanical stress exerted on the semiconductor die which would otherwise occur with straight edges to the contact fingers. The substrate may additionally or alternatively include plating traces extending at an angle from the contact fingers. Extending at an angle, at least the ends of the plating traces at the edge of the substrate are covered beneath a lid in which the semiconductor package is encased. Thus, when in use with a host device, contact between the ends of the plating traces beneath the lid and contact pins of the host device is avoided.
