Abstract:
Disclosed is a laminated (or non-laminated) conductive interconnection for joining an integrated circuit device to a device carrier, where the conductive interconnection comprises alternating metal layers and polymer layers. In addition, the polymer can include dendrites, metal projections from the carrier or device, and/or micelle brushes on the outer portion of the polymer. The polymer layers include metal particles and the alternating metal layers and polymer layers form either a cube-shaped structure or a cylinder-shaped structure.

Particular highly structured highly structured resins include at least one of liquid crystal 40 polymers, interpenetrating networks, dendrimer type matrices, expanding polymers, ladder polymers, star polymers and structured organic-inorganic hybrids 60.
Abstract:
A method for fabricating a filament-affixed trace within an electronic device, such as a circuit board or microelectronic device. Conductive traces are affixed to the surface of a composite substrate containing filaments in a matrix bonded to an underlying solid material. The matrix is then removed, leaving the conductive traces suspended or supported by filaments. The signal intensity attenuation for filament-suspended or filament-supported signal lines is much lower than signal lines embedded in solid dielectric materials, allowing for transmission of significantly higher frequency signals within filament-suspended and filament-supported signal lines.
Abstract:
A disclosed bonded structure includes a first electric structure having a first electrode, a second electric structure having a second electrode, and a middle section for electrically and mechanically bonding the first electrode and the second electrode. The middle section consists of conductive adhesives, wherein fusion bonding of metal particles is provided to at least one of the first electrode and the second electrode. The metal particles are capable of fusion bonding at a temperature lower than a thermal hardening temperature of the conductive adhesives. The conductive adhesives contain conductive filler pieces that have a particle size at which fusion bonding does not take place at a temperature lower than the thermal hardening temperature of the conductive adhesives.
Abstract:
Coupling components to an underlying substrate using a composition of a polymer and magnetic material particles. Upon applying the composition between the component and the printed circuit board, the composition may be subjected to a magnetic field to align the magnetic material particles into a conductive path between the component and the underlying substrate. At the same time the polymer-based material may be cured or otherwise solidified to affix the conductive path formed by the magnetic material particles.
