Abstract
UV- and heat-curing polymers are essential building blocks of state-of-the-art electronics assembly. Optical light guides benefit from their high refractive index, optical stability and form stability in high volume nano-imprinting. Smallest sensor assemblies and reflow compatible packages for 3D sensing can be realized with polymers with tuned thermo-mechanical as well as optical properties. Conductive polymers are enabling mass manufacturing of small form-factor MicroLED displays. Eventually, latest adhesive technology facilitates innovative design possibilities for appealing augmented and virtual reality headset formfactors by bonding all the individual building blocks
