Abstract:
The aim of the invention is to provide positioning and mounting options with improved handling characteristics even at places that are difficult to access or in other difficult conditions. Said aim is achieved by using functional elements comprising at least one area that can be foamed by supplying energy. At least one of said areas is used as a positioning element for positioning an object or for stiffening flexible or easily bendable materials in a shape-stabilizing manner.
Abstract:
A method of the present invention is a method for processing a multilayer material, in which one or more conductor layers and insulating layers are layered, with a laser beam. The method includes the step of irradiating the conductor layer with a first laser beam to form a hole at a processing point in the conductor layer, and the step of irradiating the hole with a second laser beam to process the insulating layer, layered on the conductor layer. The second laser beam has a smaller beam diameter at the processing point than the first laser beam.
Abstract:
In order to laser drill laminates which comprise at least one metal layer and at least one dielectric layer made of an organic material, a frequency-doubled Nd vanadate laser is used that has the following parameters: pulse duration
Abstract:
A copper-clad board suitable for making a hole with a carbon dioxide gas laser, which copper-clad board is obtained by disposing a double-side-treated copper foil (b) provided with a metallic-treatment layer (c) having a high absorption rate of a carbon dioxide gas laser energy on at least one surface, at least on an outer layer (t) of a thermosetting resin composition layer such that the metallic-treatment layer (c) is formed on a shiny surface of the copper foil (b) which shiny surface is to be a surface layer, and laminate-forming the double-side-treated copper foil (b) and the thermosetting resin composition layer (t) under heat and pressure, to make an alloy of the metallic-treatment layer and the copper by the above heating, a method of making hole in the above copper-clad board and a printed wiring board comprising the above copper-clad board.
Abstract:
A method of making a small-diameter through hole having high reliability with regard to a hole wall at a high rate with the energy of a high-output carbon dioxide gas laser without pre-making any hole in a copper foil, forming or disposing a coating or a sheet of an organic substance containing 3 to 97 % by volume of at least one powder selected from the group consisting of a metal compound powder, a carbon powder and metal powder which have a melting point of at least 900°C and a bond energy of at least 300 KJ/mol on at least a copper foil surface to be irradiated with the carbon dioxide gas laser, and irradiating a surface thereof with necessary pulses of the carbon dioxide gas laser to form the penetration hole, and an auxiliary material for use when a penetration hole is made in the copper-clad laminate with a carbon dioxide gas laser, the auxiliary material being a coating or a sheet of an organic substance containing 3 to 97 % by volume of at least one powder selected from the group consisting of a metal compound powder, a carbon powder and metal powder which have a melting point of at least 900°C and a bond energy of at least 300 KJ/mol.
Abstract:
A method of forming via holes (6) in an organic insulation film (1) or cutting the film (1) comprises the steps of exposing predetermined parts of the film (1) to a laser beam to raise a temperature of the exposed parts of the film (1) until the exposed parts are transformed or decomposed and subjecting the film (1) to an ultra sonic wave (5) so that the transformed or decomposed parts are dispersed.
Abstract:
A photoflash unit comprising a plurality of 2n flashlamps attached to a printed circuit board and disposed in a linear array with the longitudinal axes of respective lamps aligned in parallel. The circuit board has a substantially rectangular portion with n spaced apart extensions projecting vertically from a longer side thereof, the extensions being located behind alternate lamps of the linear array. Each extension contains portions of circuit patterns bridged by a mass of switch material to provide a solid state radiation switch on each extension and adjacent to a respective lamp for receiving radiant energy emitted by that lamp. The unit further includes a plurality of reflector cavities within each of which a respective one of the flashlamps is nested. Each reflector cavity includes a recessed rear wall section for accommodating a circuit board extension, such that each of the extensions are disposed between a respective lamp envelope and the recessed rear wall of the associated reflector. With the lamp contiguous with an upper portion of each reflector cavity and each circuit board extension contiguous with a recessed lower portion of a respective cavity, substantially equal predetermined spacings are maintained between the switches of the n extensions and the alternate lamp envelopes associated therewith.
