  • Publication number: 20180218993
    Abstract: A method of forming bond pads includes providing a substrate including an integrated circuit (IC) device formed thereon having an oxidizable uppermost metal interconnect layer which provides a plurality of bond pads that are coupled to circuit nodes on the IC device. The plurality of bond pads includes a metal bond pad area. A cobalt including connection layer is deposited directly on the metal bond pad area. The cobalt including connection layer is patterned to provide a cobalt bond pad surface for the plurality of bond pads, and a solder material is formed on the cobalt bond pad surface.

  • Patent number: 8857904
    Abstract: A head-rest of a vehicle seat with a deformable central supporting body which forms an impact zone for the head of a vehicle occupant and into which the kinetic energy of the head in the event of an accident is admitted. On both sides of the impact zone the central supporting bodies are joined by lateral supporting surfaces which are extendable out of the plane of the head-rest in the direction of travel in order to laterally support the head. In order to avoid or at least to reduce the risk of a cervical-spine whiplash injury, it is proposed according to the invention that the head-rest comprises a device for absorbing the energy admitted into the central supporting body and for outputting the absorbed energy in order to activate lateral supporting surfaces.
