A low temperature, high energy soldering composition for joining metals together contains a fluxing agent and high energy metal particles that possess sufficiently high internal energy, suspended in the fluxing agent, such that the melting point of the high energy metal particles is depressed by at least three degrees Celsius below the normal bulk melting temperature of metal. A solder joint is effected by placing the high energy metal particles in contact with one or more of the metal surfaces and heating the high energy metal particles in the presence of a fluxing agent to melt the high energy metal particles and fuse them to the metal surface.

摘要:
A microelectronic assembly (10) includes an integrated circuit die (12) mounted onto a substrate (14) by solder bump interconnections (32). The die (12) and the substrate (14) are spaced apart by a gap (30) that is filled with a polymeric encapsulant (16). The die (12) includes a die perimeter (24) and a face (27) facing away from the substrate (14). A polymeric reinforcement (18) is disposed onto the die face (27) to protect the die (12) and to reduce the effects of thermally induced stresses on the die (12) and the solder bump interconnections (32). The polymeric reinforcement (18) is spaced apart from the die perimeter (24) to maintain a desired peripheral fillet geometry of the encapsulant (16).
摘要:
A low temperature-wetting solder paste for forming a tin-base solder connection comprises a mixture of compositionally distinct first and second solder powders. The first solder is formed predominantly of tin, preferably at least 90 weight percent. The second powder is formed of a tin alloy containing indium or bismuth and having a melting temperature less than the first powder. During soldering, the second powder melts during the early stages of the heating cycle to initiate wetting of the faying surfaces and promote dissolution of the first powder, thereby reducing the time and temperature required to form the solder connection.

A backlighting device (300, 400, 500, 600) emitting light having a first wavelength includes a first radiation emission device (302), e.g., an electroluminescent lamp, for emitting radiation having a second wavelength. A layer (306) of a plurality of photon emitting particles (308), e.g., free standing quantum dots or phosphorus particles, emits light having the first wavelength in response to the first radiation emission device (302), the first wavelength being larger than the second wavelength. A transparent material (116, 120, 122) overlies the layer of a plurality of photon emitting particles (308), wherein the light having a first wavelength passes through the transparent material (116, 120, 122). Optionally, a filter (402) may be placed over the layer (306) to block the radiation having a second wavelength, and a scattering layer (604) may be placed over the layer (306) to scatter wavelength other than the first wavelength.

A self-healing polymer composition 10 contains a polymer media 12 and a plurality of microcapsules of flowable polymerizable material 16 dispersed in the polymer media 12, where the microcapsules of flowable polymerizable material 16 contain a flowable polymerizable material 15 and have an outer surface 142 upon which at least one polymerization agent 13 is chemically attached. The microcapsules 16 are effective for rupturing with a failure of the polymeric media 12, and the flowable polymerizable material 15 reacts with the polymerization agent 13 when the polymerizable material 15 makes contact with the polymerization agent 13 upon rupture of the microcapsules 14. There is also provided a method of using the self-healing polymeric composition 10 to repair fractures in polymers, as well as articles of manufacture including the self-healing system, and the microencapsulated polymerizable particles 16 themselves.
摘要:
A solder connection (30) is formed based upon a tinindium or tin-bismuth alloy, but having a melting temperature greater than the melting temperature of the initial solder alloy. A deposit (26) of solder alloy is placed against a tin plate (24) applied, preferably by electrodeposition, to a first faying surface (18). Following assembling with a second faying surface (22), the assembly is heated to melt the solder deposit, whereupon tin from the tin plate dissolves into the solder liquid to form a tin-enriched alloy having an increased melting temperature.

摘要:
A semiconductor device comprising organic semiconductor material (14) has one or more barrier layers (16) disposed at least partially thereabout to protect the organic semiconductor material (14) from environment-driven changes that typically lead to inoperability of a corresponding device. If desired, the barrier layer can be comprised of partially permeable material that allows some substances therethrough to thereby effect disabling of the encapsulated organic semiconductor device after a substantially predetermined period of time. Getterers (141) may also be used to protect, at least for a period of time, such organic semiconductor material.
