1. A method of manufacturing an electronic apparatus, the method comprising:

  • depositing a first conductive medium within a plurality of cavities of a flexible, substantially planar substrate to form a plurality of first conductors;

    depositing a plurality of diodes suspended in a liquid within the plurality of cavities, the liquid comprising a solvent and an insulating binder, each diode of the plurality of diodes having a first contact and a second contact;

    rotating and orienting at least some diodes of the plurality of diodes using an applied magnetic field while the plurality of diodes are suspended in the liquid, the rotation and orientation of the at least some diodes being in a plane substantially perpendicular to the plane of the flexible, substantially planar substrate and further providing for the first contacts of the at least some diodes to be in electrical contact with at least one first conductor of the plurality of first conductors;

    curing the insulating binder while the at least some diodes are oriented by the applied magnetic field to form a cured insulating binder having a dielectric constant greater than about one, the curing at least partially exposing the second contacts of the at least some diodes; and

    depositing a second, optically transmissive conductive medium to form a plurality of second conductors electrically coupled to the second contacts of the at least some diodes of the plurality of diodes.
