Abstract
A transfer apparatus includes a transfer layer formed of a thermally switchable material that undergoes a phase change when heated. A first side of the transfer layer is placed in contact with a chiplet during a transfer operation. An optical absorber material is thermally coupled the transfer layer. An optical energy source is operable to apply optical energy to the optical absorber material to selectively heat a region of the transfer layer that corresponds to a location of the chiplet. The region holds the chiplet when the optical energy is removed during the transfer operation. The region is subsequently heated during the transfer operation to release the chiplet. The transfer layer can be reused for repeated transfer operations.
