Abstract: A method of attaching a detector onto a substrate that has an array of electrically conducting pads is provided, together with the resulting detector assembly. The method includes pouring a non-conductive adhesive material over a substrate surface, allowing the adhesive to settle between the conducting pads to form dams around the conducting pads, applying a conductive adhesive material onto the conducting pads of the substrate, and placing a surface of the detector on the substrate surface over the conducting and non-conducting adhesives to thereby attach the surface of the detector to the surface of the substrate.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing an optical fiber, the method includes: exposing a bare fiber formed of glass and having a temperature of 500° C. to 1,500° C. to a gas in which a moisture content is controlled to 2 to 20 g/m3; applying an uncured resin to an outer periphery of the bare fiber; and curing the resin to form a coating layer.
Abstract: A film forming method forms a coating film on a workpiece having at least two film-deposited portions which are not continuous with each other by moving a nozzle of a cold spray device relative to each other along a continuous movement trajectory. The movement trajectory includes at least two trajectories corresponding to the film-deposited portions and a connecting trajectory linking the trajectories of the film-deposited portions. The film-deposited portions are formed by continuously spraying a raw material powder from the nozzle by cold spraying to form a coating film on each of the plurality of film-deposited portions. A turnback point of the spraying is set on the connecting trajectory where a relative speed between the workpiece and the nozzle decreases in the movement trajectory.
Abstract: A method of planarizing a substrate comprises dispensing formable material onto a substrate, contacting a superstrate held by a superstrate chuck with the formable material on the substrate, thereby forming a multilayer structure including the superstrate, a film of the formable material, and the substrate, releasing the multilayer structure from the superstrate chuck, providing a space between the superstrate chuck and the multilayer structure after the releasing, positioning a light source into the provided space between the superstrate chuck and the multilayer structure, and curing the film of the multilayer structure by exposing the film to light emitted from the light source.

Abstract: A method of marking an optical fiber includes forming an ink stream, moving an optical fiber over a fiber path adjacent the ink stream, and intermittently deflecting the ink stream with a gas jet so that the optical fiber at least partially enters the deflected ink stream so that the ink from the deflected ink stream forms spaced apart marks on the optical fiber outer surface. An optical fiber marking apparatus is also disclosed that includes payout and take modules that move the optical fiber over the fiber path, a marking unit configured to form an ink stream adjacent the fiber path, and an ink stream deflection device that causes the ink stream to deflect and overlap the fiber path so that ink from the ink stream forms spaced apart marks on the outer surface of the optical fiber.
Abstract: The present invention discloses an organic polymer film and a manufacturing method thereof. The organic polymer film is mainly manufactured by the following steps. Firstly, the step (A) provides a xylene precursor and a substrate, and the step (B) places the substrate inside of a plasma equipment. After that, the step (C) evacuates the plasma equipment while introducing a carrier gas which carries vapor of the xylene precursor, and the step (D) turns on a pulse power supply system of the plasma equipment, generating a short pulse for plasma ignition. Finally, the step (E) forms the organic polymer film on the substrate. In the aforementioned steps, the frequency of the short pulse plasma is between 1 Hz˜10,000 Hz, and the pulse period of the short pulse plasma is between 1 ?s˜60 ?s.

Abstract: Provided are a method for fabricating a highly elastic porous polymer membrane, a method for manufacturing a cell culture system using a porous polymer membrane fabricated by the fabrication method, and a cell culture system manufactured by the manufacturing method. The porous polymer membrane can be fabricated by spin coating a mixture solution containing a biodegradable elastomeric polymer and a water-soluble moisture absorbent in an optimum ratio while maintaining a high relative humidity. The porous polymer membrane has a uniform thickness and a uniform pore size and is highly elastic. In addition, the thickness and pore size of the porous polymer membrane can be controlled. The porous polymer membrane can induce active cell-cell interaction during cell co-culture due to its high porosity. The porous polymer membrane enables control over cell alignment or array due to its high biocompatibility and elasticity.
