Abstract
Abstract Driver circuit chip mounting techniques for use in the fabrication of monolithic flat panel displays are disclosed in accordance with the teachings of the present invention. According to a preferred embodiment, a driver circuit having a spot of optical cement is precisely positioned within a location of metalized, grouped and patterned row or column conductors. Thereafter collimated ultraviolet light is imaged through the display onto the rear of the driver circuit until the optical cement has become sufficiently tacky to permit the display to be inverted whereupon collimated ultraviolet light may be directly applied to complete the full curing of the optical cements.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim
201 words
A method of bonding integrated circuits in a monolithic flat panel display comprising the steps of: providing a source of ultraviolet radiation which has an output path; positioning a display panel beneath said radiation source so that a first surface of said display panel faces and is in the output path of said radiation source; placing a spot of optical cement on a first surface of an integrated circuit to be bonded; positioning said integrated circuit to be bonded on said first surface of said display panel at location adjacent to inputs and outputs of said display panel to be connected to said integrated circuit, said first surface of said integrated circuit and said first surface of said display panel forming an interface therebetween; and employing a single substantially flat and totally reflecting front surface mirror positioned so as to direct ultraviolet radiation from said radiation source toward and through a second surface of said display panel disposed opposite said first surface of said display panel to said interface until said optical cement becomes tacky, said mirror directing light at said second surface of said display panel at an angle of incidence being the complement of angles between 45° and 90°.
