Abstract:
In the present invention, a copper electrode having a nanohole structure is prepared by using a polymer substrate in the form of nanopillars in order to avoid fatigue fracture that causes degradation of electrical and mechanical properties of a flexible electrode during repetitive bending of a typical metal electrode. The nanohole structure may annihilate dislocations to suppress the initiation of fracture and may blunt crack tips to delay the propagation of damage. Therefore, the nanohole electrode exhibits very small changes in electrical resistance during a bending fatigue test.
Abstract:
A printed circuit board may include an aluminum nitride (AIN) substrate that includes an AIN thin film and a layer of high-frequency polymer as a carrier substrate of the AIN thin film. The AIN substrate forms a first layer of the printed circuit board. The AIN substrate comprises a heat spreader that laterally spreads out heat from a heat sink on the printed circuit board to form a thermal dissipation path parallel with a signal path on the printed circuit board. The printed circuit board may include a main substrate aligned to and bonded with the AIN substrate. The main substrate may include one or more additional layers of the printed circuit board.
Abstract:
A metal substrate includes a first insulating substrate, a second insulating substrate, a first metal layer, a second metal layer and a release layer. The first insulating substrate has a first modified surface and a second surface opposite to the first modified surface. The first metal layer faces the second surface. The release layer is bonded on the first modified surface. The second insulating substrate is bonded on a side of the release layer, such that the release layer is between the first modified surface and the second insulating substrate. The second metal layer is disposed on a side of the second insulating substrate, such that the second insulating substrate is between the release layer and the second metal layer. An original surface roughness of the first modified surface has a variation substantially less than 10% after the first modified surface is released from the release layer.

Abstract:
A process includes the steps of: casting or coating a polyamic acid organic solvent solution on a support and drying the polyamic acid organic solvent solution thereon, so as to form a partially cured and/or partially dried polyamic acid film; dipping the polyamic acid film in tertiary amine or a solution of tertiary amine, or coating tertiary amine or a solution of tertiary amine on the polyamic acid film; and drying the film while imidizing the polyamic acid. In another process, a chemical converting agent and a catalyst are mixed in an organic solvent solution of polyamic acid. After casting and heating the mixture on a support, a partially cured and/or partially dried polyamic acid film is detached from the support. The film contains, with respect to the remaining volatile component, not less than 50 parts of catalyst, not more than 30 parts of solvent, and not more than 20 parts of chemical converting agent and/or a chemical converting agent derived component. The remaining amic acid is imidized and the film is dried.
