  • Patent number: 12209304
    Abstract: A solvent layer is coated on a metal layer carried by a donor substrate, allowing the fabrication of solid metal lines at a high resolution. The laser jetting involves ejecting metal particles, constrained within a solvent membrane, from the metal layer. Once the metal particles have been deposited onto a receiver substrate, the solvent can be evaporated. Since this printing procedure can be performed with the solvent layer in direct contact with the receiver substrate or separated therefrom by a small distance, the resolution of the metal lines can be very high and depends directly on the laser spot size and defocus. The solvent constrains the droplet size of the metal particles, which can increase or maintain the resolution of the laser beam. As this process is a continuous sequence production, the metal line production can be performed at a very rapid rate.

  • Patent number: 12074001
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method of producing a plate arrangement comprising two plates (1, 2) which, at least in sections, have an intermediate space (4) located between them and a constant distance (d) to one another and/or are arranged parallel to one another and between which a fusible solder material (3, 3?) is arranged. The task of setting a defined distance between the plates as accurately as possible is solved according to the invention by creating a pressure difference between the intermediate space (4) between the plates and the outer space surrounding the plates in such a way that the pressure in the outer space is higher than in the intermediate space (4) and that the temperature of the solder material (3, 3?) is at least temporarily raised above its melting temperature during the existence of the pressure difference.
