[0002] When the ultrasonic fingerprint module is attached to the under-screen, there are high requirements for the bonding material.

Second, the microscopic uniformity of the bonding material must be high, and the material must not have defects (generally required to be below the μm level).

Usually, the optical layer is implemented with a layer of metal with high acoustic impedance, such as copper, aluminum, molybdenum, etc. However, in order to ensure good penetration of ultrasound, the metal layer needs to be extremely thin (μm micrometer level), which places high demands on the adhesive layer used for module bonding and is also costly.
