One step chip attach (OSCA) materials are dispensable polymeric materials for flip chip assembly, which are designed to flux metallic interconnections and subsequently turn into an underfill upon curing. OSCA materials enable a drastic simplification of the assembly process by combining the reflow (fluxing/soldering), defluxing and capillary underfilling steps used in traditional processing into a single step. One key challenge for the design of OSCA materials is timing the cure kinetics with fluxing activity and solder reflow during processing. A second key challenge is to factor a process-friendly rheological design into the formulation. The OSCA material rheology must allow for high filler loading levels, seamless integration with standard dispensing equipment, flow control during and after dispense (avoid keep out zones), flow during die placement (elimination of voids), after placement (fillet formation) and during reflow. The final key requirements for a functional device are defect-free interconnections combined with optimal thermo-mechanical and water resistant properties of the final underfill to guarantee the long-term reliability of the assembly in various environmental conditions. This paper presents the properties of materials designed by Kester for use in mass reflow processing (OSCA-R). The rheological design principles behind a seamless integration into customer-friendly processes will be presented In addition results illustrating the timing of cure kinetics with fluxing and soldering events during processing will be discussed. Preliminary device reliability results will also be presented for several types of test vehicles including; Si-Si and Si-FR4.

One step chip attach materials (OSCA) are dispensable polymeric materials for flip chip assembly, which are designed to flux metallic interconnections and subsequently turn into an underfill upon curing. OSCA materials enable a drastic simplification of the assembly process by combining the reflow, flux residue cleaning and capillary underfilling steps used in traditional die attach processing into a single step. A key challenge when designing filled OSCA materials for conventional mass reflow processing (OSCA-R) is to ensure that the materials have a process-friendly rheological design allowing seamless integration with jet dispensing equipment and allowing for accurate die placement. This paper presents research results and design concepts for OSCA-R materials focused on understanding the impact of filler loading, size, type and surface chemistry on rheology and the relationships with jet dispensing performance, die placement and reliability performance for test vehicles constructed with silicon and organic substrates.

The Impact

One step chip attach materials (OSCA) are dispensable polymeric materials for flip chip assembly, which are designed to flux metallic interconnections and subsequently turn into an underfill upon curing. OSCA materials enable a drastic simplification of the assembly process by combining the reflow, flux residue cleaning and capillary underfilling steps used in traditional die attach processing into a single step. A key challenge when designing OSCA materials for conventional mass reflow processing (identified as OSCA-R) is timing the cure kinetics with the fluxing and soldering sequences during reflow processing. OSCA-R materials must also have a process-friendly rheological design that integrates seamlessly with standard dispensing equipment and enables the filler loading levels required for customized thermal conductivities. The consideration of the interactions between the filler particles and the organic portion of OSCA materials is critical for first achieving fluxing and interconnection during reflow and second curing the material to develop target thermo mechanical properties for reliability such as Tg, TC, CTE modulus and adhesion after reflow. This paper presents research focused on understanding the impact of filler loading, size, type and surface chemistry on curing, fluxing and interconnection kinetics during reflow processing measured by thermal and rheological methods. Preliminary results indicate the presence of chemical interactions between the filler and organic formulations, as well as complex physical interactions which need to be considered in the design of OSCA-R materials for a device assembly using conventional mass reflow processing.

Crude prothrombin enriched from human plasma was directly activated to generate alpha-thrombin without prior exhaustive purification of the proenzyme using a combination of several different types of chromatographic techniques, as in all previously described methodologies. Activated thrombin was separated from other components in a single step by taking advantage of its highly specific affinity to heparin immobilized on a matrix support of Sepharose CL-6B. On the basis of the data presented herein, we have demonstrated the ease with which at least 25 mg of a highly purified enzyme (greater than 97% homogeneous by laser densitometry) can be obtained per litre of plasma. Our product exhibits a specific activity of at least 4000 National Institutes of Health units/mg and is stable after being freeze-dried for the purpose of long-term storage.

Polymeric materials, due to their excellent physicochemical properties and versatility found applicability in multiples areas, including biomaterials used in tissue regeneration, prosthetics (hip, artificial valves), medical devices, controlled drug delivery systems, etc. Medical devices and their applications are very important in modern medicine and the need to develop new materials with improved properties or to improve the existent materials is increasing every day. Numerous reasearches are activated in this domain in order to obtain materials/surfaces that does not have drawbacks such as structural failure, calcifications, infections or thrombosis. One of the most used material is poly(vinylchloride) (PVC) due to its unique properties, availability and low cost. The most common method used for obtaining tubular devices that meet the requirements of medical use is the surface modification of polymers without changing their physical and mechanical properties, in bulk. PVC is a hydrophobic polymer and therefore many research studies were conducted in order to increase the hydrophilicity of the surface by chemical modification in order to improve biocompatibility, to enhance wettability, reduce friction or to make lubricious or antimicrobial coatings. Surface modification of PVC can be achieved by several strategies, in only one step or, in some cases, in two or more steps by applying several techniques consecutively to obtain the desired modification / performances. The most common processes used for modifying the surface of PVC devices are: plasma treatment, corona discharge, chemical grafting, electric discharge, vapour deposition of metals, flame treatment, direct chemical modification (oxidation, hydrolysis, etc.) or even some physical modification of the roughness of the surface.

Norbornene Derivatives

Here, we have demonstrated that the presence of a carbonyl group at C7 position is preventing the olefin metathesis of endo-norbornene derivatives due to the complexation of the metal alkylidene. Time-dependent NMR studies showed the presence of new proton signals in the metal alkylidene region, which indicate the formation of metal complex with the carbonyl group of the substrate. These observations were further proved by ESI-MS analysis. Whereas, computational studies provided that the catalyst was interacting with the C7 carbonyl group and aligned perpendicular to that of norbornene olefin. Later, these endo-keto norbornene derivatives were reduced to hydroxyl derivatives diastereoselectively. Ring-rearrangement metathesis (RRM) of these hydroxyl derivatives, produced the [6/5/6], and [5/6/5] carbo-tricyclic cores of the natural products in one step. Whereas the RRM of O-allyl derivatives, delivered the oxa-tricyclic compounds in a single step with excellent yields.

Axillary buds of in vitro microshoots were successfully frozen at –196 °C by the one-step freezing method using the protective vitrification solution 2 (PVS2). Microshoots were taken from 11 transgenic lines and three wild type lines. Influence of different explant pretreatments were analyzed from the point of their influence towards recovery after cryopreservation. It was found out that the use of axillary buds as explants after removal of the apical one increases recovery on average by 8%. The cultivation on growth medium of higher density insignificantly raises the regenerants survival rate. Pretreatment of the osmotic fluid (OF) shows the greatest influence on the survival rate. It leads to the increase in survival rate by 20%. The cryopreservation technology providing regenerants average survival rate of 83% was developed. It was based on the experimental results obtained with explant pretreatment. Incubation time in liquid nitrogen did not affect the explants survival rate after thawing. After six months cryostorage of samples their genetic variability was analyzed. Six variable simple sequence repeat (SSR) loci were used to analyze genotype variability after the freezing-thawing procedure. The microsatellite analysis showed the genetic status identity of plants after cryopreservation and of the original genotypes. The presence of the recombinant gene in the transgenic lines after cryostorage were confirmed so as the interclonal variation in the growth rate under greenhouse conditions. The developed technique is recommended for long-term storage of various breeding and genetically modified lines of aspen plants, as it provides a high percentage of explants survival with no changes in genotype.

Typical Measurement

The de-embedding of measurement fixtures is relevant for an accurate experimental characterization of radio frequency and digital electronic devices. The standard technique consists in removing the effects of the measurement fixtures by the calculation of the transfer scattering parameters (T-parameters) from the available measured (or simulated) global scattering parameters (S-parameters). The standard de-embedding is achieved by a multiple steps process, involving the S-to-T and subsequent T-to-S parameter conversion. In a typical measurement setup, two fixtures are usually placed before and after the device under test (DUT) allowing the connection of the device to the calibrated vector network analyzer coaxial ports. An alternative method is proposed in this paper: it is based on the newly developed multi-network cascading algorithm. The matrices involved in the fixture-DUT-fixture cascading gives rise to a non-linear set of equations that is in one step analytically solved in closed form, obtaining a unique solution. The method is shown to be effective and at least as accurate as the standard multi-step de-embedding one.

Dodecyl Mercaptan

AbstractReckless discharge of industrial wastewater and domestic sewage as well as frequent leakage of crude oil have caused serious environmental problems and posed severe threat to human survival. Various nature inspired superhy-drophobic surfaces have been successfully applied in oily water remediation. However, further improvements are still urgently needed for practical application in terms of facile synthesis process and long-term durability towards harsh environment. Herein, we propose a simple one-step dodecyl mercaptan functionalization method to fabricate Super-hydrophobic-Superoleophilic Copper Mesh (SSCM). The prepared SSCM possesses excellent water repellence and oil affinity, enabling it to successfully separate various oil-water mixtures with high separation efficiency (e.g., > 99% for hexadecane-water mixture). The SSCM retains high separating ability when hot water and strong corrosive aqueous solutions are used to simulate oil-water mixtures, indicating remarkable chemical durability of the dodecyl mercaptan functionalized copper mesh. Additionally, the efficiency can be well maintained during 50 cycles of separation, and the water repellence is even stable after storage in air for 120 days, demonstrating the reusability and long-term stability of the SSCM. Furthermore, the functionalized mesh also shows good mechanical robustness towards abrasion by sandpaper, and oil-water separation efficiency of > 96% can be obtained after 10 cycles of abrasion. The reported one-step dodecyl mercaptan functionalization could be a simple method for increasing the water repellence of copper mesh, and thereby be a great candidate for treating large-scale oily wastewater in harsh environments.
