Abstract: Provided is a method suitable for efficiently manufacturing a semiconductor device while preventing warpage of the wafer laminate in manufacturing a semiconductor device in which semiconductor elements are multilayered through laminating wafers in which the semiconductor elements are fabricated. The method includes at least: preparing a plurality of first wafer laminates each having a laminate configuration including a first and second wafers each having an element forming surface and a back surface opposite from the element forming surface, the laminate configuration wherein the element forming surface sides of the first and second wafers are bonded to each other; thinning the first wafer of the first wafer laminate to form a first wafer laminate having the thinned first wafer; and bonding the thinned first wafer sides of two first wafer laminates having undergone the thinning to each other to form a second wafer laminate.

Abstract: A release layer of a release film for producing a membrane electrode assembly of a polymer electrolyte fuel cell comprises a cyclic olefin polymer comprising an olefin unit having a C3-10alkyl group as a side chain thereof. The release layer may have a glass transition temperature of about 210 to 350° C. The release layer may have a transition point of a dynamic storage modulus E? in a range from ?50 to 100° C. An ion exchange layer comprising an ion exchange polymer may be laminated on the release layer of the release film by a roll-to-roll processing to produce a laminate. The release film may be separated from the laminate to give the membrane electrode assembly. The release film achieves improved production of a membrane electrode assembly (an electrolyte membrane and/or an electrode membrane) of a polymer electrolyte fuel cell.

Abstract: In a transfer sheet which comprises a support and a transfer layer releasable from the support, the transfer layer comprises (i) an adhesive layer formed on one surface of the support and (ii) a masking layer formed on the adhesive layer and containing a masking agent and a binder resin which may have a crosslinking group, and the transfer layer is adjusted to have an elongation at break of not less than 30% (e.g., 30 to 200%). The masking layer may comprise a white pigment such as a titanium oxide and a urethane-series resin which may have an isocyanate group. The transfer sheet may comprise an image-receiving layer at least containing a urethane-series resin particle formed on the masking layer. Moreover, the transfer sheet may comprise an anchor layer between the masking layer and the image-receiving layer. The transfer layer is capable of recording an image thereon the image being transferred from a recording sheet.

Abstract: A surface protective film which can be easily peeled off from an adhesive silicone rubber composition layer, is free of a plasticizer or the like which may have an adverse effect on adhesion of the adhesive silicone rubber composition layer to a semiconductor chip or semiconductor chip attaching portion, and has no adverse effect on thickness uniformity or surface flatness of the adhesive silicone rubber composition layer, and a process for producing the same.
