OSAKA, Japan — Mitsubishi Electric Corp. has developed a single-step, hydrofluoric acid electrochemical etching process that can achieve an aspect ratio greater than 60:1 at potentially a tenth of the ...

How metals can be used depends particularly on the characteristics of their surfaces. A research team has discovered how they can change the surface properties without affecting the mechanical ...

Researchers etch nano-sized textures and add copper ions to create a naturally antibacterial material for hospitals and other shared settings. Postdoctoral scholar Anuja Tripathi examines a small ...

As any good metallurgist will tell you, you can't just take any two types of metal and weld them together. You may instead be able to just join them together with glue, however, thanks to research ...

The fundamentals of a good Bosch etching system are described below; There are a number of significant features of the equipment used for Bosch processing which differ from normal ICP systems: In ...

In today's industries, quality inspection in semiconductor manufacturing is critical. Many traditional fault detection and diagnosis techniques have been developed to determine the existence of trends ...
