According to a first aspect, the present invention provides a method for forming a semiconductor film comprising a first step of providing a solution comprising a first organic semiconductor and a second organic semiconductor on a surface of a substrate. The solution is then dried to form the semiconductor film so that it comprises discrete domains of the first organic semiconductor in a matrix of the second organic semiconductor which electrically connects adjacent domains of the first organic semiconductor. The first and second semiconductors are of the same conductivity type. The mobility of charge carriers in the domains of the first organic semiconductor is higher than the mobility of charge carriers in the matrix of the second organic semiconductor. In alternative aspects, the present invention provides methods forming similar semiconductor film products but in which a solution of the first organic semiconductor is deposited separately from the second organic semiconductor and dried to form discrete domains. The present invention also provides a semiconductor film such as produced by the above methods in which both the first and second organic semiconductors are thiophenes.

Provided is a method forming a desired pattern of electronically functional material 3 on a substrate 1. The method comprises the steps of: creating a first layer of patterning material 2 on the substrate whilst leaving areas of the substrate exposed to define said desired pattern; printing a suspension comprising particles of the electronically functional material 3 in a liquid dispersant, to which the patterning material is impervious, on the patterning material and the exposed substrate; removing at least some of the liquid dispersant from the suspension to consolidate the particles; and applying a first solvent to said consolidated particles which is capable of solubilizing the patterning material 2 and to which the consolidated particles are pervious so that the patterning material is removed from the substrate 1 together with any overlying electronically functional material 3.

The present invention relates to substrates having wetting contrasts wherein the surface area of at least one part of the wetting contrast is rough because it is derived from a surface polymer layer comprising particles embedded therein. This surface roughening is important because it affects the surface properties of the substrate, and in particular the hydrophilicity and/or oleophilicity of the surface. According to a first method of the present invention, a substrate having a surface which comprises adjacent areas of different hydrophilicity and/or oleophilicity is produced. The method comprises forming a pattern of a first composition comprising a polymer matrix and particles of a material other than the polymer matrix on a substrate precursor. The present invention further relates to a method of producing a microelectronic component which involves depositing an electronically functional material onto a substrate having a wetting contrast.
摘要:
A fuel injection valve for internal combustion engines, with a high pressure connection, which feeds laterally into a valve retaining body inserted into the engine housing, which connection is constituted by a pressure pipe connector which is inserted into a through bore in the housing. The pressure pipe connector is connected to a pressure line by means of a male pipe fitting and is axially braced by this fitting against a seat on the circumference face of the valve retaining body. In order to limit the clamping forces of the high pressure connection introduced radially onto the valve retaining body, a region is provided between the force introduction onto the pressure pipe connector and its contact with the valve retaining body, which region plastically deforms from a particular clamping force onward.
