Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a semiconductor assembly, in particular connecting a semiconductor chip to a heat sink. A first metal layer consisting of Pb, Cd, In or Sn is made so thin that it is bonded by means of an opposing second metal layer consisting of another metal, for example gold, in a layer consisting of intermetallic phases. This can prevent migration of the soft metals. The brittle intermetallic layer is prevented from fracturing by a continuous pressing force.

Abstract: A method for the production of a diode laser having a laser bar, wherein a metal layer having raised areas is used which is located between the n-side of the laser bar and the cover. The metal layer can be plastically deformed during installation without volume compression in the solid physical state. As a result the laser module can be reliably installed and a slight deviation (smile value) of the emitters from a centre line is achieved.

Abstract: A method for performing a filleting cut for filleting fish which are conveyed tail-first is carried out along a row of wedge-shaped ray bones projecting away from a main bone stem with a wedge width increasing from ray bone to ray bone by a pair of circular knives having sharp cutting edges. Starting from the tail end, meat of each fish is cut by the circular knife pair having a V-shaped arrangement as a result of the fact that a cutting gap having the smallest cutting edge spacing is set to a basic size which is at least substantially equal to or smaller than a wedge width of the outermost ray bone at the tail end of the conveyed fish.
