Abstract: A nanoporous film and fabrication method thereof. The method for fabricating nanoporous film comprising: providing a substrate with a surface; forming a coating of a composition on the surface, curing the coating to polymerize the oxide gel, thereby forming an organic/inorganic hybrid film; and dissolving the template from the organic/inorganic hybrid film by an organic solvent. Specifically, the composition comprises the following components: an oxide gel, a template and an initiator.

Abstract: A nanoporous film and fabrication method thereof. The nanoporous film according to the present invention has a plurality of nanopores distributed uniformly therein. Due to the nanopores, the nanoporous film has a refractive index less than 1.45, reducing the reflectivity of less than 3.0%. Furthermore, since the nanoporous film comprises organic-inorganic hybrid with a high crosslink density, the film exhibits superior mechanical strength and is highly suitable for use as anti-reflection and anti-abrasion coatings.

Abstract: A sheet (20) for use in microfluidic, microelectronic, micromechanical, and/or microoptical applications requiring through-flow, through-conductivity, through-transmission, and/or other through patterns. The sheet (20) includes micro-sized architecture including at least one via (22) extending through the thickness of the layer of thermoplastic material. The via-defining walls in the thermoplastic layer are formed by the thermoplastic material flowing around a projection and then solidifying around the projection.

Abstract: An anisotropically conductive structure for providing electrical interconnection between electronic components, and the process for making such anisotropically conductive structure. The anisotropically conductive structure includes a dielectric matrix having a substantially uniform thickness; an array of vias extending into or through the matrix; a plurality of conductive elements, wherein individual via contains at least one conductive element; a first adhesive layer adhered to the first major surface of the matrix; and optionally, a second adhesive layer adhered to the second major surface of the matrix.
