Abstract:
An anisotropic electrically conducting interconnect is disclosed in which an adhesive comprising particles having a breakable coating of at least one electrically nonconductive material is compressed between a first contact and a second contact. Compression to two contacts breaks the breakable coating exposing an electrically conducting material which makes contact with the first and second contacts. The electrically conducting material may be a metal conductor or a two-part reactive conductive resin/catalyst system. Also disclosed are processes for making such electrical interconnects and adhesives for use in making electrical interconnect.
Abstract:
A method for preparing particles to retain a charge such that the particles are rendered electrostatically or electrokinetically mobile. The method involves coating the particles with a coating medium which facilitates attachment of a charge director material, and contacting the particles with the coating medium thereon with a charge director medium to impart a positive or negative charge thereto and thereby render the particles electrostatically or electrokinetically mobile. Electrostatically and electrokinetically mobile particles for use in an electrostatic or electrokinetic deposition process. The particles include a coating medium and a charge director on particle bodies.
Abstract:
There are disclosed insulated ultrafine powder comprising electroconductive ultrafine powder which is in the form of sphere, spheroid or acicular each having a minor axis in the range of 1 to 100 nm and an insulating film applied thereto; a process for producing the same which is capable of covering the surfaces of the insulated ultrafine powder with the insulating film having a thickness in the range of 0.3 to 100 nm without causing any clearance or vacancy; and a resin composite material which uses the same. A high dielectric constant of the material is assured by adding a small amount of insulated ultrafine powder wherein an insulating film is applied to the electroconductive ultrafine powder, while maintaining the processability and moldability that are the characteristics inherent in a resin material.

There is provided a conductive sintered layer forming composition and a conductive sintered layer forming method that can lower heating temperature and shorten heating time for a process of accelerating sintering or bonding by sintering of metal nano-particles coated with an organic substance. The conductive sintered layer forming composition may be obtained by utilizing a phenomenon that particles may be sintered at low temperature by mixing silver oxide with metal particles coated with the organic substance and having a grain size of 1 nm to 5 μm as compared to sintering each simple substance. The conductive sintered layer forming composition of the invention is characterized in that it contains the metal particles whose surface is coated with the organic substance and whose grain size is 1 nm to 5 μm and the silver oxide particles.

Abstract:
This invention provides a mounting method for reliably connecting mounting components electrically. Specifically, an anisotropically conductive adhesive can be composed of crushable microcapsules and a second liquid in which the microcapsules are dispersed. Each microcapsule encloses a first liquid and a conductive particle. The first liquid can react with the second liquid at normal temperatures to cure the second liquid. This anisotropically conductive adhesive can be applied on a flexible printed circuit (FPC). Then, a drive IC is mounted and pressed on the FPC to crush the microcapsules between electrode pads provided on the drive IC and electrode pads provided on the FPC, thereby bonding the electrode pads. Subsequently, the anisotropically conductive adhesive is heated to plasticize a capsule wall of each microcapsule, thereby bonding the drive IC and the FPC.
