Abstract:
The imprint apparatus of the present invention includes a holding unit configured to hold a mold; a particle inspection unit configured to inspect whether or not particle is present on an imprint area, in which the resin pattern is formed, of the substrate; a dispenser configured to apply an uncured resin to the imprint area; a movable unit configured to move the imprint area with respect to the holding unit; and a controller. The movable unit is capable of moving the imprint area to each of an inspection position by means of the inspection unit, an application position by means of the dispenser, and a contacting position by means of the holding unit. Also, the controller causes the inspection unit to perform inspection of the imprint area in association with the movement of the imprint area by means of the movable unit.
Abstract:
Techniques for reactive deposition are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a method includes providing laser energy into a deposition environment, the laser energy having a focal point and introducing a first precursor material and a second precursor material into the deposition environment at or near the focal point of the provided laser energy, thereby causing the first and second precursor materials to melt and react to form a composite material different than both the first and second precursor materials. The method also includes allowing the formed composite to solidify by moving the focal point of the provided laser energy away from the melted first and second precursor materials.
Abstract:
A coating device for coating a coating liquid onto a substrate includes: a coating head having a coating-liquid outlet, adapted to move with respect to the substrate along a first axial direction and capable of coating the substrate with coating liquid through the coating-liquid outlet; and adjustment unit connected to the coating head and including a movable pad disposed proximal to the coating-liquid outlet and adapted to move along a second axial direction for adjusting the size of the opening of the coating-liquid outlet; and a drive assembly connected to the adjustment unit for controlling the adjustment unit to move along the second axial direction. Additionally a coating method is provided.
Abstract:
A solder joint may be used to attach components of an organic vapor jet printing device together with a fluid-tight seal that is capable of performance at high temperatures. The solder joint includes one or more metals that are deposited over opposing component surfaces, such as an inlet side of a nozzle plate and/or an outlet side of a mounting plate. The components are pressed together to form the solder joint. Two or more of the deposited metals may be capable of together forming a eutectic alloy, and the solder joint may be formed by heating the deposited metals to a temperature above the melting point of the eutectic alloy. A diffusion barrier layer and an adhesion layer may be included between the solder joint and each of the components.
Abstract:
A curtain coating device for paper and board machines has a nozzle beam (10) with a nozzle lip (12) with an edge strip (11) for feeding the coating color curtain and edge guides (20) located along each edge of the nozzle lips (12) controlling the width of the coating color curtain. The edge guide (20) has upper and lower ends. Flow surfaces (22) extend in a substantially vertical direction parallel and next to each other. The edge guide has a lubrication feed (24), additional lubrication feeds (26) and a suction opening (27). The flow surfaces (22) are inclined toward each other forming a flow guide recess (25) which extends in a vertical direction such that the form of the flow surfaces (22) with the flow guide recess (25) is concave. A protrusion (21) extends within the recess in the direction of the flow guide recess (25).

Abstract:
A method and apparatus for coating a group of objects may be provided. A three-dimensional model of the group of objects may be generated. Segments that represent each object in the group of objects in the three-dimensional model may be formed. Instructions for coating the group of objects may be generated based on the segments. The instructions may be configured to cause a robotic coating system to coat the group of objects.
Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a thin film chip resistor device includes the steps of: disposing a magnetic fixing member on a first surface of a substrate, and disposing a magnetic shadow mask on a second surface of the substrate opposite to the first surface, such that the magnetic shadow mask detachably and fixedly contacts the second surface of the substrate by virtue of an attractive magnetic force between the magnetic fixing member and the magnetic shadow mask; and depositing at least one resistor unit on the second surface of the substrate with the use of the magnetic shadow mask, the resistor unit including two separated first electrode elements and a resistor element that electrically interconnects the first electrode elements.
Abstract:
The invention relates, inter alia, to a device (10) for applying a plurality of threads (17) of a fluid, such as adhesive or lotion, to a moving web-like substrate (11), having a plurality of outlet openings (15a, 15b, 15c, 15d, 15e) for the threads of fluid (17, 17a, 17b, 17c), wherein each outlet opening is disposed between a pair of flow openings (16a, 16b, 16c, 16d, 16e), through which a flow fluid (21), in particular compressed air, flows in order to achieve thread oscillation. The special feature consists, inter alia, in that the outlet openings are disposed along a curved path (22, 22′).
Abstract:
A substrate liquid processing apparatus including: a substrate rotary-holding unit configured to rotate a substrate while holding the substrate; and a processing liquid supply unit configured to supply a processing liquid to a bottom surface of the substrate held by the substrate rotary-holding unit. The substrate rotary-holding unit includes: a base plate disposed spaced apart from the substrate below the substrate; a cover member supported by the base plate and disposed outside an outer periphery of the substrate; and a discharge port formed between the base plate and the cover member and configured to discharge an air stream occurring below the substrate. The support portion of the base plate and the cover member protrudes outwards from a top surface of the base plate to be connected to the cover member.
