A method of transferring micro-devices includes attaching micro-devices to one surface of a first body with a first adhesive layer, and selectively forming a masking layer on an opposite surface of the first body. A second adhesive layer on a second body is placed to contact the plurality of micro-devices. The first adhesive layer is exposed to illumination through the first body to create a neutralized portion while the masking layer blocks the illumination from reaching some of first adhesive layer to provide a less exposed portion that is more adhesive than the neutralized portion. The first surface is separated from the second surface such micro-devices on the less exposed portion of the first adhesive layer remain attached to the first surface and micro-devices corresponding to the neutralized portion attach to the second body and separate from the first surface.
