Micromachining of Thin CFRP with UV-PS Laser Pulses
By: Masayuki Fujita and George Okada It is well known that Carbon Fiber-Reinforced Plastic (CFRP) has attractive features like high-durability, high-strength and light-weight. These features have been stimulating the CFRP to be applied for a wide variety of applications. For example, by using the CFRP as a body material of aircrafts and automobiles, higher fuel efficiency […]
High Density Through Glass Vias for Advanced Chip Packaging
By Ralph Delmdahl, Rainer Pätzel, Rolf Senczuk and Jan Brune Glass is a promising material from which advanced interposers for high density electrical interconnects for 2.5D and 3D chip packaging can be produced. The supply of ultra-thin glass wafers with thicknesses of 100 µm and below shows attractive cost and superior high frequency performance relative […]
