Abstract: Thermoelectric material has attracted more attentions as a promising energy material in recent years. Research nowadays are devoted to improvement of figure-of-merit (zT=S2T/??). Motivated by p-type AgSbTe2 compound, ternary Ag—Sb—Te has been reported as an important thermoelectric system. Although ternary AgSbTe2 compound has been considered as a candidate for thermoelectric materials with the advantages of low thermal conductivity (?p=0.6 WK?1 m?1), the relatively high electrical resistivity (?=7.5*10?3 ?cm) has limited its applications. This invention disclosed brand-new Ag—Sb—Te bulk materials with very fine microstructures that nanoscale Ag2Te phase precipitate uniformly in the multi-phase matrix through class I reaction, liquid=Ag2Te+AgSbTe2+?. Moreover, the electrical resistivity (?) measured by four-probe method is as low as 8.4*10?4 (?cm) at room temperature, which guarantees the promise of those ternary bulk materials.

Abstract: A new kind of Sn—In based Pb-free solders with Zn addition is disclosed, which includes: 15˜25 wt % In; 0.05˜1.5 wt % Zn; and balance Sn. When the solder of the present invention is used in the assembly of electrical products, the dissolution rates of the substrates and the growth of the intermetallic compounds formed at the interfaces can be reduced; and thereby the properties of joints can be improved.

Abstract: This invention provides orthodontic archwires with more than one colors, which can be prepared by subjecting the orthodontic archwires to an anodizing treatment.

Abstract: Metallic devices are frequently used in dental treatments, such as orthodontic archwires, rackets, or dental mini-screws. This invention provides metallic dental devices with a color of tooth or close to tooth, and their preparation methods.

Abstract: This invention takes advantages of color characteristics of medical devices for the cosmetic and indication purposes. For example, the appearances of the metallic brackets used in orthodontics are improved with colors other than the original metallic color by surface treatment using plasma techniques. For example, orthodontic brackets are made with piezochromic materials. When the archwire's torsion and bending forces are fading due to the movement of the teeth, the color of the pressure sensitive brackets will be changed, and the need of archwire's readjustment to have proper torsion and bending forces is signalized. For example, rehabilitation equipments are made with piezochromic materials. When the pressures exerting on the rehabilitation equipments are different, different colors of the equipments are displayed, and the therapists can then act accordingly.

Abstract: A method for soldering an electronic component to a substrate is provided. The method includes the steps of forming a metal layer on the substrate; applying a solder material on the metal layer; and performing a thermal process to transfer the solder material into a solder joint so as to connect the electronic component with the substrate. During the thermal process, a portion of the metal layer is introduced into the solder joint, thereby elevating the eutectoid temperature of the solder joint. This invention also provides an electronic device made by this method.

Abstract: This invention takes advantage of the characteristics that the effective charge numbers of different metals have different values and even with different signs, and alloys are prepared with the metals of different signs of effective charge numbers. The effective charge numbers of the alloys are the summation of the mole fraction of each constituent metal times its respective effective charge number. Based on the knowledge of the calculated effective charge number, alloys are prepared with proper selection of constituent metals and proper ratios. When the alloy is under the influence of an electric field, the atoms, with the tendency to move in the same direction of the electron flow, interact with the atoms, with the tendency to move in the opposite. The alloys are thus electromigration effect-free or electromigration effect-insignificant.

Abstract: This invention forms an indium or indium alloy layer on top of a Sn based lead-free solder. The indium or indium alloy layer can be formed by various methods, such as plating, deposition, printing, dipping, etc. The indium-containing layer melts during the soldering process, wets the substrate, and forms a sound solder joint. Since the melting point of indium is 156.6° C., even lower than that of the eutectic Sn—Pb which is at 183° C., so the soldering process can be carried out at a temperature lower than the conventional soldering process. During the soldering process, the indium reacts with the Sn based Pb-free solder alloy. Since the eutectic temperature of Sn—In is at 120° C., during the short time of the soldering process, the surface of the In deposited Pb-free solder remains as the liquid phase and have a good wetting with the substrate, while a In gradient is formed in the In deposited Pb-free solder.
