20080233280 | Method to form a pattern of functional material on a substrate by treating a surface of a stamp - The invention provides a method to form a pattern of functional material on a substrate. The method uses an elastomeric stamp having a relief structure with a raised surface and having a modulus of elasticity of at least 10 MegaPascal. At least the raised surface of the stamp is treated by exposing the stamp to heat, radiation, electrons, a stream of charged gas, chemical fluids, chemical vapors, and combinations thereof, to enhance wettability of the surface. A composition of the functional material and a liquid is applied to the relief structure and the liquid is removed to form a film on the raised surface. The elastomeric stamp transfers the functional material from the raised surface to the substrate to form a pattern of the functional material on the substrate. The method is suitable for the fabrication of microcircuitry for electronic devices and components. | 09-25-2008 |
20080248205 | Method to form a pattern of functional material on a substrate using a mask material - The invention provides a method to form a pattern of functional material on a substrate for use in electronic devices and components. The method uses a stamp having a relief structure to transfer a mask material to a substrate and form a pattern of open area on the substrate. The functional material is applied to the substrate in at least the open area. Contact of an adhesive material to an exterior surface opposite the substrate and separation of the adhesive from the substrate forms the pattern of functional material on the substrate. The method is suitable for the fabrication of microcircuitry for electronic devices and components. | 10-09-2008 |
