Abstract: A method of manufacturing a polymer printed circuit board contains in a sequential order steps of: A), B), C), D, and F). In the step A), a material layer consisting of polymer is provided. In the step B), circuit pattern is formed on the material layer. In the step C), metal nanoparticles are deposited on the laser induced graphene (LIG) of the circuit pattern so as to use as a material seed. In the step D) a metal layer on the nanoparticles are deposited and the LIG of the circuit pattern are formed. In the step E), the circuit pattern is pressed. In the step E), the circuit pattern, the material layer, the metal nanoparticles, and the metal layer are pressed in a laminating manner to obtain the polymer printed circuit board.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a jaw member of a surgical forceps includes forming a jaw frame having a distal jaw support. The method also includes forming an electrically-conductive defining an aperture having a first diameter, forming a stop member including a body having a second diameter smaller than the first diameter and a shoulder having a third diameter greater than the first diameter. The method also includes inserting the stop member into the aperture such that the body extends through the aperture and the shoulder abuts a portion of the electrically-conductive plate surrounding the aperture, and overmolding an outer housing about at least a portion of the jaw frame, electrically-conductive plate, and stop member to secure the jaw frame, electrically-conductive plate, and stop member to one another.
