  • Patent number: 9123705
    Abstract: Vias (holes) are formed in a wafer or a dielectric layer. A low viscosity conductive ink, containing microscopic metal particles, is deposited over the top surface of the wafer to cover the vias. An external force is applied to urge the ink into the vias, including an electrical force, a magnetic force, a centrifugal force, a vacuum, or a suction force for outgassing the air in the vias. Any remaining ink on the surface is removed by a squeegee, spinning, an air knife, or removal of an underlying photoresist layer. The ink in the vias is heated to evaporate the liquid and sinter the remaining metal particles to form a conductive path in the vias. The resulting wafer may be bonded to one or more other wafers and singulated to form a 3-D module.

    Abstract: Adhesive composition usable in particular as an adhesion primer, based on a polyisocyanate compound and a polyester or vinyl ester resin comprising (in particular hydroxyl) functional groups which are reactive towards isocyanate groups of said polyisocyanate, the total number of said isocyanate groups being in excess relative to the total number of said functional groups of the polyester or vinyl ester resin. The polyisocyanate compound is preferably a diisocyanate, the resin is preferably an epoxy vinyl ester resin, in particular novolac- and/or bisphenol-based. Said composition is usable, as an adhesion primer, in combination with a secondary adhesion layer preferably based on a polyvinylpyridine/stirene/butadiene elastomer and a polyester or vinyl ester resin.

  • Patent number: 8603272
    Abstract: A multilayer film comprises a layer consisting essentially of a fluorinated copolymer resin film and a layer consisting essentially of a blend of two ethylene copolymers. The first ethylene copolymer comprises copolymerized units of ethylene, optionally a first olefin having the formula CH2?C(R1)CO2R2, and a second olefin having the formula CH2?C(R3)COOH. The second ethylene copolymer consists essentially of copolymerized units of ethylene, optionally a first olefin having the formula CH2?C(R1)CO2R2, and a third olefin having the formula CH2?C(R4)D. R1, R3 and R4 represent hydrogen or an alkyl group; R2 represents an alkyl group; and D represents a moiety containing an epoxy group. The multilayer film is useful as an integrated frontsheet or backsheet for photovoltaic modules. Methods for preparing the multilayer film and the photovoltaic modules are also included.

  • Patent number: 8506751
    Abstract: An adhesion bond between a metallic surface layer and a second surface is formed by treating the layers with a material comprising sulphur-containing molecules. The sulphur-containing molecules are applied as a surface treatment of the surfaces, so that the sulphur-containing molecules act as a coupling agent to bond chemically to both substrates form nanometer-sized structures on the surfaces. The nanometer-sized structures are incorporated into a self-assembly interlayer in between the surfaces, with the interlayer forming a bond to both surfaces.
