摘要:
A copper welding rod is used in an arc-welding operation to form a bead that joins a copper starter sheet and a stainless steel hanger bar. The amperage level of the arc-welding equipment is set to generate heat at the weld site which is above the melting point of copper and below the melting point of stainless steel. This results in a welded joint between the copper bead and the hanger bar and a brazed joint between the copper bead and the starter sheet. Since brazing produces little or no fusion, the area of contact between the two dissimilar metals is limited to the interface between them, which significantly reduces the damaging effects of galvanic corrosion. Another improvement lies in the application of a corrosion-resistant metallic coating on the joint between the hanger bar and the starter sheet using a high velocity oxygen fuel flame spray technique.

Methods of passivating a metal surface are described, the methods comprising the steps of i) exposing the metal surface to a silicon-containing passivation material; ii) evacuating the metal surface; iii) exposing the treated surface to a gas composition having a concentration of reactive gas that is greater than an intended reactive gas concentration of gas to be transported by the metal surface; iv) evacuating the metal surface to remove substantially all of the gas composition to enable maintenance of an increased shelf-life, low concentration reactive gas at an intended concentration; and v) exposing the metal surface to the reactive gas at the intended reactive gas concentration. Manufactured products, high stability fluids, and methods of making same are also described.

The present invention provides inter alias electroplating compositions, methods for use of the compositions and products formed by the compositions. Electroplating compositions of the invention are characterized in significant part by a grain refiner/stabilizer additive comprising one or more non-aromatic compounds having null electrons that can be delocalized, e.g., an null,null unsaturated system or other conjugated system that contains a proximate electron-withdrawing group. Compositions of the invention provide enhanced grain refinement and increased stability in metal plating solutions, particularly in tin and tin alloy plating formulations.

The present invention relates to methods and apparatus for plating a conductive material on a substrate surface in a highly desirable manner. The invention removes at least one additive adsorbed on the top portion of the workpiece more than at least one additive disposed on a cavity portion, using an indirect external influence, thereby allowing plating of the conductive material take place before the additive fully re-adsorbs onto the top portion, thus causing greater plating of the cavity portion relative to the top portion.

A production apparatus of hypochlorite solution includes an electrolytic cell having a housing the interior of which is subdivided by a partition membrane to form therein anode and cathode chambers, and positive and negative electrodes respectively disposed within the anode and cathode chambers and opposed to each other through the partition membrane, wherein the positive and negative electrodes are applied with DC voltage to effect electrolysis of chloride solution such as sodium chloride solution or potassium chloride solution supplied into both the anode and cathode chambers, and wherein acid water and alkaline water respectively produced in the anode and cathode chambers are mixed to produce hypochlorite solution. In the production apparatus of hypochlorite solution, the anode chamber of the electrolytic cell is supplied with chloride solution through a supply conduit connected thereto, while the cathode chamber of the electrolytic cell is supplied with city service water through a supply conduit connected thereto.
摘要:
A method and an apparatus for uniform electroless plating of layers onto exposed metallizations in integrated circuits such as bond pads. The apparatus provides means for holding a plurality of wafers, and rotating each wafer at constant speed and synchronous within the plurality. Immersed in a plating solution flowing in substantially laminar motion and at constant speed, the method creates periodic superposition of directions and speeds of the motion of the wafers and the motion of the plating solution. The invention creates periodically changing wafer portions where the directions and speeds are additive and where the directions and speeds are opposed and subtractive. Consequently, highly uniformly layers are electrolessly plated onto the exposed metallizations of bond pads. If the plated layers are bondable metals, the process transforms otherwise unbondable pad metallization into bondable pads.

A substrate having a photoresist coated thereon is exposed to exposure light along a line through a lens 1. The exposure position is moved from the initial position O1 to a position O2 that is separated from the initial position by a distance corresponding to the sum of a groove width Gw and a land width Lw. The exposure is carried out along a line parallel to the initial exposure line. By repeating this, exposed areas having a width Lw and a separation Gw are formed on the photoresist. The photoresist is developed to remove the exposed areas of the photoresist. A resin or the like is pressed on it to form a replica. From the replica, a stamper is manufactured using an electroforming method. Finally, a grooved molding substrate is manufactured from a glass or resin using the stamper. Although the land width Lw is defined by the effective spot diameter null of the optical system, the groove width Gw can be less than this value.
