• Aluminum-Alloy Bearings
  and conformability. For automotive use, considerable improvement in antiscoring characteristics and embeddability is obtained by using a thin-lead babbitt or electrodeposited lead-tin overlay. Aluminum bearing alloys are used either as solid cast material or as aluminum strips (normally from 0.02 to 0.125...
• Taking Aluminum Extrusions to the Next Level
  the. Stretch forming. thermal bridge is interrupted. Stretch forming is the process of increas-. With strip joining, two extrusions. ing the surface area of a part by stretch-. are joined using polypropylene or. ing the metal over a forming punch. Stretch dies force the metal to thin out. and strain...
• Controlling corrosion, particles in metal etch-and-strip cluster tool systems
  and protect the underlying metal film from chlorine attack. If the protective polymer layer is too thin or becomes damaged by energetic ions, chlorine can attack a sidewall locally and form voids in the aluminum. In the scanning electron microscope (SEM) image in Figure 5, three voids appear as dark...
• Zinc
  , the established zinc alloys are the No. 3, 5, and 7 Zamak alloys. As die castings, they have good general-purpose tensile properties and can be cast in thin sections and with good dimensional accuracy. The alloys are often selected for plated or highly decorative applications because of their excellent...
• MICRO: Special Apps
  Paul Werbaneth, Tegal; and Tim Lester and Jadwiga Pakulska, Nortel Networks A variety of metals can be used for interconnect metallization in IC and MEMS device fabrication. Aluminum and aluminum alloys, tungsten, copper, platinum, and gold are all employed as thin-film conductors...
• MICRO: Product Extra!
  is offering a new option for the NanoSpec thin-film analysis systems. The option adds wafer bow and stress-measurement capability to film-measurement systems, eliminating the need for separate tools and lowering capital expenses. In 300-mm fabrication, deposited films can cause wafers to bow...
• Miniature Linear Encoders
  limits anywhere directly on the scale, enabling the scale to be mounted closer to a motor than scales with magnetic switches. Metal Thin-Film Metrology Tool. Rudolph Technologies. Flanders, NJ. Designed to meet metal thin-film metrology requirements at the 45-nm node and beyond and offering throughput...
• Detecting Air Leaks in Low Emissivity Enclosures
  . A succession of activities will prepare the areas of a test cell for thermal evaluation. There are five steps to. complete the procedure. 1. Cover all cracks or metallic joints, holes, and patches with thin paper. 2. Measure off image-sized areas on the paper, mark the image "edges," and number...

  film thicknesses on everything from quartz wafers to flat-panel displays. Combining the QDI 2000 microspectrophotometer, which is capable of both reflectance and transmission, and QDI FilmPro software, users can determine the thicknesses of thin films that are deposited on both opaque and transparent...
• Linear Encoders
  is independent of magnetic field polarity, so the 32-pole wheel generates 32 pulses per revolution, twice the resolution of previous sensors. A magnetoresistive sensor assembly comprises an array of thin nickel-iron permalloy strips. Strip width is much larger than thickness. The sensor is located above...
