Abstract
Methods and systems to manufacture a semi-conducting backplane are described. According to one set of implementations, semi-conducting particles are positioned in a supporting material of the semi-conducting backplane utilizing perforations in the supporting material or perforations in a removable support member upon which the semi-conducting backplane is constructed. For example, semi-conducting particles are deposited in perforations on a supporting member such that a portion of the semi-conducting particles protrudes from the supporting member. Suction is applied to the semi-conducting particles to retain the semi-conducting particles in the perforations and a layer of encapsulant material is applied onto the supporting member to cover the protruding portion. The supporting member is then removed from the semi-conducting particles and the layer of encapsulant material, which together form an assembly of the semi-conducting particles and the layer of encapsulant material. The portion of the semi-conducting particles is then planarized.
