Patent number: 5213248Abstract: The disclosure is directed to a bonding tool for use primarily in thermo-compression bonding of electronic circuit components and to a method of making the bonding tool. In one form of the disclosure, a holder is provided and has a substrate mounted at an end thereof. The holder is adapted to receive a heating element. A polycrystalline diamond film is disposed on the substrate, the film preferably being deposited by chemical vapor deposition. In a disclosed embodiment the substrate is a material selected from the group consisting of polycrystalline diamond, cemented tungsten carbide, silicon carbide, cubic boron nitride, and tungsten. In a further form of the disclosure, a ceramic substrate is provided which has a favorable thermal conductivity property as well as substantial electrical conductivity sufficient to permit shaping by electrical discharge machining ("EDM").Type: GrantFiled: January 10, 1992Date of Patent: May 25, 1993Assignee: Norton CompanyInventors: Ralph M. Horton, James T. Hoggins, Shih-Yee Kuo

Patent number: 5135892Abstract: A superhard form of boron suboxide (B.sub.x O) comprises at least about 95% by weight of polycrystalline B.sub.6 O and has a KHN.sub.100 value of at least about 3800 kg/mm.sup.2. A method for forming the superhard boron suboxide comprises mixing stoichiometric amounts of boron oxide (B.sub.2 O.sub.3) powder and boron powder and subjecting the mixture to a temperature of about 1800.degree. C. to about 2200.degree. C. and a pressure of about 2,000 to about 6,000 psi while encapsulated by boron nitride. The boron powder comprises about 90 to 95% by weight of elemental boron (B), and at least about 1% by weight of a sintering aid, such as Mg.Type: GrantFiled: July 12, 1991Date of Patent: August 4, 1992Assignee: Norton CompanyInventors: Cristan Ellison-Hayashi, Morteza Zandi, Frank J.
