Multi-level Metallization on an Elastomer PDMS for FOWLP-based Flexible Hybrid Electronics

Abstract

In order to fabricate a wearable flexible display as a flexible hybrid electronic (FHE) device with micro-LED dies, we demonstrate multi-level metallization on an elastomer using die-first fan-out wafer-level packaging (FOWLP). The elastic substrate of this display is PDMS (polydimethylsiloxane) in which the array of 3-color micro-LEDs is embedded. In this study, we address serious issues such as die shift and stress accumulation in advanced FOWLP to integrate a self-luminescent flexible micro-LED display.
