Patent number: 11004718Abstract: Compositions and designs are described for a sectional porous carrier used in processing microelectronics where thin device substrates are affixed by adhesive to the carrier and form an impervious bonded stack that is resistant to thermal and chemical products during processing and is easily handled by a substrate handling vacuum robot, and subsequently allows rapid removal (debonding) in batch operations by directional penetration into sectional porous regions by selective liquids which release the carrier from the device wafer without harm. The invention carrier with porous regions is used for temporary support of thin and fragile device substrates having capabilities of selective penetration of chemical liquids to pass through the porous regions, access and breakdown the bonding adhesive, and allow it to release without damage to the device substrate.Type: GrantFiled: October 31, 2018Date of Patent: May 11, 2021Inventors: John Cleaon Moore, Alexander Joseph Brewer, Jared Michael Pettit, Alman XiMin Law

Patent number: 10696874Abstract: Methods and compositions are described for a temporary adhesive used to affix a work unit onto a carrier substrate whereby its porosity is tuned by choosing and adjusting the polymeric resin and filler components to provide sufficient adhesion to support a manufacturing process, and upon completion, there is advanced penetration of a liquid into the interfacial bond causing release of the work unit without harm. The temporary adhesive provides a tunable porosity that is dependent upon the mathematical calculation of the weight basis ratio of filler to binder, that is preferably greater than 1.0, more preferably greater than 2.0, and most preferably greater than 3.0. The temporary adhesive may be applied and cured in a variety of ways that meet the needs of the form of the work unit and objectives of the manufacturing process. The invention provides benefits of flexibility and reduced cost when establishing practices to handle difficult work units in the manufacture of semiconductors and flat panel displays.Type: GrantFiled: January 24, 2019Date of Patent: June 30, 2020Inventors: John Cleaon Moore, Jared Michael Pettit

Patent number: 7771259Abstract: A frame apparatus capable of being flush mounted relative to a wall, ceiling or floor surface, is made up by joining linear frame sections each providing interconnected elements formed by an extrusion process. A first planar element is spaced apart from a second planar element and positioned for abutting a common surface. A first channel element is formed between the first and second planar elements. A third planar element is positioned normal to the first and second planar elements and terminates with a rib directed toward the first planar element. When mounted onto studs in a building structure, wall putty or mud may be placed into a space between the wall panels and the third planar element and with rib elements protruding from the third planar element, the mud is captured in place forming a smooth interface between the frame assembly and the surrounding wall surfaces.Type: GrantFiled: September 20, 2005Date of Patent: August 10, 2010Inventor: Michael Pettit
