摘要:
An improved method of forming a semiconductor device is described. The method comprises forming a dielectric layer on a substrate, forming a photoresist layer on the dielectric layer, then patterning the photoresist layer to define a region to be etched. After forming an etched region within the dielectric layer, the photoresist layer is removed and the etched region is cleaned. The etched region is cleaned by applying a buffered oxide etch dip, followed by an amine based dip.
摘要:
Laser machining fired ceramic and other hard and/or thick materials includes scribing a workpiece with a laser beam along a sequence of parallel laser paths within a cutout region of the workpiece. The scribing creates a kerf in the cutout region that widens as the laser beam advances along the sequence. The sequence may begin with an inner portion of the cutout region and end with an outer edge thereof such that debris is directed away from the laser paths to increase throughput and create a high quality opening in the workpiece. High quality structures may also be cut out from the workpiece. The method includes directing a high velocity stream of gas to an interface of the laser beam and the workpiece to redirect the flow of debris and cool the interface. The method may also adjust a focus depth of the laser beam as it deepens the kerf.
摘要:
A method for thinning a substrate prior to drilling and/or for structurally reinforcing a thinned substrate having a via pattern after drilling and products resulting thereby. A substrate, or panel, has a first thickness. A pocket is formed in the substrate where the pocket has a second thickness less than the first thickness. At least one via is drilled in the pocket, and the via(s) are filled with an optically transmissive material.
摘要:
An area of reduced thickness is formed in a panel, and a pattern of microscopic holes are formed in the area. The holes are filled with a light transmissive material such as a curable polymer. The thinned area may also be filled with a polymer to reinforce the thinned area and the polymer may be colored to add color to light transmitted through the pattern. The panel can form a portion of a housing surrounding a lighting source that makes the holes visible when lit.
摘要:
Techniques or processes for providing markings on products are disclosed. In one embodiment, the products have housings and the markings are to be provided on the housings. For example, a housing for a particular product can include an outer housing surface and the markings can be provided on the outer housing surface so as to be visible from the outside of the housing. The surface of the housing is able to be anodized and dyed, and the markings of the surface are able to be bleached markings of dyed anodization.

Techniques or processes for providing markings on products are disclosed. In one embodiment, the products have housings and the markings are to be provided on sub-surfaces of the housings. For example, a housing for a particular product can include an outer housing surface and the markings can be provided on a sub-surface of the outer housing surface yet still be visible from the outside of the housing. Since the markings are beneath the surface of the housing, the markings are durable.
摘要:
A method of treating a metallic surface of an article including the steps of providing an article having a metallic surface; texturizing the surface using a laser to create a controlled pattern across the surface; and anodizing the surface. The controlled pattern may include a series of pits etched in a predetermined repeating pattern across the surface, such as an array of dots or a grid. The controlled pattern may also include a series of pits etched in a predetermined pseudo-random pattern across the surface.

摘要:
A method of forming a filled via with an optically transmissive material and a resulting product. The method comprises drilling a via in a panel and filling the via with an optically transmissive material. The method can also be used to create a light transmissive section of a housing. A light source directed to one side of the via is seen through the optically transmissive material so as to be visible to a viewer viewing a surface at the second side of the via.
