    Abstract: A stress-engineered frangible structure includes multiple discrete glass members interconnected by inter-structure bonds to form a complex structural shape. Each glass member includes strengthened (i.e., by way of stress-engineering) glass material portions that are configured to transmit propagating fracture forces throughout the glass member. Each inter-structure bond includes a bonding member (e.g., glass-frit or adhesive) connected to weaker (e.g., untreated, unstrengthened, etched, or thinner) glass member region(s) disposed on one or both interconnected glass members that function to reliably transfer propagating fracture forces from one glass member to other glass member. An optional trigger mechanism generates an initial fracture force in a first (most-upstream) glass member, and the resulting propagating fracture forces are transferred by way of inter-structure bonds to all downstream glass members. One-way crack propagation is achieved by providing a weaker member region only on the downstream side of each inter-structure bond.

    Abstract: Provided is a manufacturing process for electronic circuit components such as bare dies, and packaged integrated chips, among other configurations, to form electronic assemblies. The surface of the electronic circuit component carries electronic elements such as conductive traces and/or other configurations including contact pads. A method for forming an electronic assembly includes providing a tacky layer. Then an electronic circuit component is provided having a first side and a second side, where the first side carries the electronic elements. The first side of the electronic circuit component is positioned into contact with the tacky layer. A bonding material is then deposited to a portion of the adhesive layer that is not covered by the first side of the electronic circuit component, to a depth which is sufficient to cover at least a portion of the electronic circuit component. The bonding material is then fixed or cured into a fixed or cured bonding material, and the tacky layer is removed. By these operations, the electronic circuit component is held in a secure attachment by the fixed or cured bonding material, and circuit connections may be made.

    Abstract: A stressed substrate for transient electronic systems (i.e., electronic systems that visually disappear when triggered to do so) that includes one or more stress-engineered layers that store potential energy in the form of a significant internal stress. An associated trigger mechanism is also provided that, when triggered, causes an initial fracture in the stressed substrate, whereby the fracture energy nearly instantaneously travels throughout the stressed substrate, causing the stressed substrate to shatter into multiple small (e.g., micron-sized) pieces that are difficult to detect. The internal stress is incorporated into the stressed substrate through strategies similar to glass tempering (for example through heat or chemical treatment), or by depositing thin-film layers with large amounts of stress. Patterned fracture features are optionally provided to control the final fractured particle size. Electronic systems built on the substrate are entirely destroyed and dispersed during the transience event.

    Abstract: A method of forming a charge pattern on a microchip includes depositing a first material on an insulator surface of the microchip, depositing a material having capability of forming a self-assembled monolayer on the other material, wherein the material comprises at least one material selected from the group consisting of: octadecyltrichlorosilane, phenethyltrichlorosilane, hexamethyldisilazane, allyltrimethoxysilane, or perfluorooctyltrichlorosilanem, and patterning the self-assembled monolayer to reveal a portion of the first material. A method of forming a charge pattern in a microchip includes depositing a first material as one of either a solution processed material or a vapor deposited material to generate a first polarity or first magnitude of charge, depositing a second material as a vapor deposited material to generate a second polarity or second magnitude of charge, and immersing the microchip in a non-polar fluid comprising one selected from the group consisting of: an isoparafinnic liquid, a hydrocarbon liquid and dodecane.
