Abstract: A technique is described for the generation of a pattern on printed wiring boards bearing a layer of copper. The technique involves the use of a solder cream as an etch resist, the cream comprising a slurry of solder suspended in a curable resin flux. The use of the cream as an etch resist is similar to the use of either ink or solder plate for such purposes. However, the process described is far more economical than currently used techniques and provides a preferred alternative.

Abstract: A liquid phase epitaxial growth technique for growing lithium niobate films on lithium tantalate substrates involves growth from a flux system based on either lithium borate, lithium tungstate, tungsten oxide or potassium tungstate. Optical waveguiding occurs in films grown from the described flux systems.

Abstract: A technique for the fabrication of thin film electrets designed for use in electroacoustic transducers involves depositing a thin film of titanium upon a perfluorinated foil and, subsequently, depositing a layer of gold thereon. The resultant structure evidences adhesion characteristics which are superior to those described heretofore for metallized foils and electrical characteristics comparable to those previously described.
