Method to form a pattern of functional material on a substrate by treating a surface of a stamp
InactiveUS20080233280A1Fully removedNanostructure manufactureLayered productsCompound (substance)Electron
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.

InactiveUS6308630B1Quality improvementSimple formatCylinder pressesPlaten pressesComputer scienceRecording media
An intermediate transfer recording medium is comprised by providing a transfer portion having a receptor layer on a substrate film. The transfer portion is printed with the image and thereafter transferred on a surface of a transfer-receiving material. In the first aspect of the intermediate transfer recording medium, the transfer portion is provided with plural hologram patterns 21 with a hologram mark 22 allocated to each the hologram pattern. According to the first aspect of the invention, since an image is formed on the receptor layer through positioning process using the hologram mark and then the transfer portion is transferred to the surface of the transfer-receiving material, no joint of a print plate appears in the hologram pattern and accuracy of transfer is remarkably excellent. On the other hand, In the second aspect of the intermediate transfer recording medium, peeling strength required to peel the transfer portion from the substrate film at the time when transferring the transfer portion to the transfer-receiving material is controlled in the range of 10 to 150 gf / inch. According to the second aspect of the invention, any transfer failure such as tail-extension or chip of the transfer portion is not caused.

System and methods for data-driven control of manufacturing processes
Systems and methods for implementing hybrid, closed-loop control that generates control values for processes defined by a limited number of function evaluations and large amounts of process and measurement noise. The described control system is applied to a stencil printing process for applying solder paste to an electronic medium such as a printed circuit board or semiconductor wafer. The control system is defined by a hybrid approach. A first, coarse algorithm is used to rapidly produce the value of a stencil printer control value resulting in a solder paste deposit having a volume within predetermined acceptable limits. After the coarse algorithm no longer produces solder paste deposits closer to a desired volume, a second, more refined estimator is used to fine tune the process. An additional transitional algorithm may be added between the coarse algorithm and refined estimator. The coarse algorithm may be implemented with a constrained-conjugated gradient search, and the refined search may be a implemented using a least-squares affine estimator or a quadratic estimator. The transitional algorithm may be implemented using a block version of a least-squares affine estimator.

Method of producing a high gloss coating on a printed surface
InactiveUS20030113466A1High coatingLow production costCylinder pressesTransfer printingPresent methodPaper sheet
The present invention is directed to a method for producing a high gloss coating on a printed surface. In the present method, an aqueous coating composition is deposited onto a surface to be printed using a blanket roller coating face which is a low energy, non-stick, smooth surface profile. In the present method, simultaneous with the deposition of aqueous coating onto a substrate, or shortly thereafter, pressure either alone or in combination with heat may be applied to the coating in order to create a substantially tack-free surface conforming to the surface of the coating face. By using a highly polished coating face, high gloss coatings may be readily obtained using this methodology in a number of traditional printing techniques including wet trap inline sheet-fed printing, heat-set offset printing, dry trap inline flexographic printing, offset web-fed printing and gravure printing. Coatings which are produced utilizing the present invention have high gloss values heretofore unobtainable using aqueous coating compositions.

A paint injector for digital printing in which paint is deposited in metered amounts on a print medium comprises a wheel rotatable by a shaft of a motor, an idler disposed in a paint reservoir, and an endless cable disposed around the wheel and the idler. The motor is preferably computer controlled such that the rotation of the wheel and thus movement of the cable is selectively controlled. As the wheel is rotated, paint contained within the paint reservoir coats the cable and is thus drawn by the cable in front of an air stream. The air stream pulls the paint from the cable and carries it toward the print medium. By employing a plurality of such paint injectors into a single print head, each containing a different color of paint, and secured to a computer controlled, movable carriage positioned over the print medium, a digital image can be painted by the print head on the print medium.

The present invention provides a method for image formation, that can yield thermally transferred images which are excellent in various fastness properties even under severe service conditions, and an intermediate transfer recording medium for use in the method for image formation. The method for image formation comprises the steps of: providing an intermediate transfer recording medium comprising a substrate film and a transfer portion provided separably on the substrate film; forming an image on the intermediate transfer recording medium in its transfer portion; transferring the transfer portion onto an object; and, thereafter, again transferring the intermediate transfer recording medium in its next transfer portion once or more onto the object with the image formed thereon. In this case, in the intermediate transfer recording medium, a hologram image is set every at least second image plane, and an image can be formed on the transfer portion having the hologram image. This can offer an advantage that the transfer portion, with a thermally transferable image formed thereon, can be transferred onto an object followed by the superimposition of a transfer portion, to be served as the outermost surface in the final form onto the transferred portion once or more to provide a strong film for protecting the thermally transferred image.

Method of varying the ink density of the full tone in offset printing within a rotary printing machine
A method of varying the ink density of the full tone in printing within a rotary printing machine with an ink application system which can provide a constant quantity of ink which, in spite of constant ink supply from the inking unit, permits control of the full-tone density or adaptation of the raster tonal values in the print. The method includes setting the binary image on a printing plate. A basic raster of raster points, which determines the area coverage of the binary image, is produced on the printing plate for the variable-area image information. The basic raster is then superimposed on a fine microraster in such way that the area coverage of the basic raster is reduced by a percentage which can be set between 0% and 100%.
