A method for bonding a matrix of light-emitting elements onto a substrate includes forming conductive material on bond pads of the substrate in a matrix arrangement. Separately, a plurality of light-emitting elements is also picked up and placed onto a temporary carrier in the said matrix arrangement. The temporary carrier containing the plurality of light-emitting elements is then held with a bond head, and is moved by the bond head to establish contact between electrodes on the plurality of light-emitting elements and the conductive material on the substrate. When heat is applied to the light-emitting elements while exerting a compressive force with the bond head against the conductive material, conductive joints are formed between the light-emitting elements and the substrate. |
