US Patent 11355548 Monolithic segmented LED array architecture

A first component with a first sidewall and a second component with a second sidewall may be mounted onto an expandable film such that an original distance X is the distance between the first sidewall and the second sidewall. The expandable film may be expanded such that an expanded distance Y is the distance between the first sidewall and the second sidewall and expanded distance Y is greater than original distance X. A first sidewall material may be applied within at least a part of a space between the first sidewall and the second sidewall. The expandable film may be expanded such that a contracted distance Z is the distance between the first sidewall and the second sidewall, and contracted distance Z is less than expanded distance Y.
