Patent number: 8119204Abstract: A binder material layer including an evaporation material is formed over a main surface of an evaporation source substrate, a substrate on which a film is formed is placed so that the binder material layer and a main surface thereof face each other, and heat treatment is performed on a rear surface of the evaporation source substrate so that the evaporation material in the binder material layer is heated to be subjected to sublimation or the like, whereby a layer of the evaporation material is formed on the substrate on which a film is formed. When a low molecular material is used for the evaporation material and a high molecular material is used for the binder material, the viscosity can be easily adjusted, and thus, film formation is possible with higher throughput than conventional film formation.Type: GrantFiled: March 26, 2008Date of Patent: February 21, 2012Assignee: Semiconductor Energy Laboratory Co., Ltd.Inventors: Hisao Ikeda, Takahiro Ibe, Tomoya Aoyama

Patent number: 8119191Abstract: The present invention discloses methods, materials and devices for facilitating electromagnetic/radiofrequency interference (EMI/RFI) shielding and thermal management in packaging circuits. More specifically, a method of packaging integrated circuits with improved thermal and EMI management, a process of treating a compound for use as a thermal interface and/or an EMI shield, and an EMI shielding and thermal management apparatus. More specifically, the present invention divulges methods and apparatuses for adjusting viscosity of a thermally and/or electrically conductive (or thermally conductive and/or electrically insulative), form-in-place, fully cured compound thereby rendering the compound dispensable. Further, a process of treating a compound for use as a thermal interface or/and an EMI shield is disclosed. The compound is an admixture of a particulate filler component and a pre-cured gel component.Type: GrantFiled: March 28, 2007Date of Patent: February 21, 2012Assignee: Parker-Hannifin CorporationInventors: Michael H. Bunyan, Phillip Blazdell
