  • Method of localized consolidation of parts assembled by molecular adhesion
    Patent number: 12258290
    Abstract: A method of assembling together a first part and at least one second part that are made of materials compatible with bonding by molecular adhesion includes a step of pressing a first surface of the first part against a second surface of the second part so as to create molecular bonds at an interface between the parts, and a step of consolidating the interface bonding as created in this way by heat treatment. The consolidation includes a step of emitting a power laser beam towards an impact point forming a portion of the outline of the interface, and a step of moving the impact point along the outline of the interface.
