About

Mahsa Mozafari is a researcher specializing in advanced manufacturing technologies, particularly fluidic self-assembly and flexible electronics. Her work centers on developing innovative fabrication methods for assembling semiconductor components onto flexible substrates — a field with transformative implications for next-generation lighting, wearable electronics, and large-area devices. Mozafari's most influential contribution, garnering 34 citations, demonstrated the feasibility of millimeter-thin, rubber-like solid-state lighting modules produced through roll-to-roll fluidic self-assembly — a landmark achievement that bridges scalable manufacturing with high-performance flexible illumination. Her subsequent work on surface tension directed fluidic self-assembly (27 citations) provided a comprehensive framework for understanding how semiconductor chips can be precisely captured, aligned, and electrically connected across diverse length scales and material boundaries, addressing key challenges in the field. Her earlier involvement in pioneering the first automated reel-to-reel fluidic self-assembly machine further underscores her foundational role in translating nature-inspired, self-organizing principles into practical industrial processes — moving beyond conventional robotic pick-and-place techniques. Collectively, Mozafari's research advances a paradigm shift in semiconductor manufacturing, offering scalable, cost-effective alternatives for producing flexible and conformal electronic systems with broad applications across consumer electronics and smart lighting industries.
