Abstract
A method of placing light emitting diodes (LEDs) includes embedding an array of LEDs in a polymer layer on a substrate. The method includes detaching at least one LED in the array of LEDs from the substrate by dry-etching the polymer layer in which at least one LED is embedded. A pick-up-tool (PUT) is brought into contact with at least one surface of at least one LED facing away from the substrate, responsive to dry-etching the polymer layer. The PUT is lifted with the at least one LED attached to the PUT.
