  • Patent number: 8241710
    Abstract: A method and an apparatus for spraying a track, in particular a conductor track, onto a substrate under mild conditions, includes generating a cold plasma having a plasma temperature of less than 3000 K in a spray lance, introducing a powder into the spray lance with the aid of a carrier gas and leading the powder to a frontal exit opening, where it exits and impinges on the substrate. An electrical component including an electrically conductive conductor track applied to a substrate, is also provided.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 23, 2009
    Date of Patent: August 14, 2012
    Assignee: Leoni AG
    Inventors: Robert Süss-Wolf, Marco De Paolis, Dieter Geist, Gerhard Reichinger, Gerard Pieper
  • Patent number: 7713594
    Abstract: In order in particular to allow interconnects to be applied to a component (2) by a thermal spraying process in such a way that they are clearly delimited from one another, before the actual spraying process the surface (8) of the component (2) is treated, in particular laser treated, in such a way that a non-adhering region (14) with a nub-like surface structure is formed.
