Abstract
A printable component includes a component substrate and one or more electrical conductors. One or more electrically conductive connection posts protrudes from the component substrate to form an exposed electrical contact. Each connection post is electrically connected to at least one of the electrical conductors and one or more wicking posts protrude from the component substrate. The wicking post can be insulating. In certain embodiments, a printable component source wafer comprises a source wafer, a plurality of sacrificial portions separated by anchor portions formed in a sacrificial layer of the source wafer, and a plurality of printable components. Each printable component is disposed over a corresponding sacrificial portion and connected to an anchor portion by a tether. A destination substrate structure comprises a destination substrate having one or more electrically conductive contact pads, an adhesive layer disposed on the destination substrate, and one or more printable components.
