Dear Cindi: I am interested in the Au and Al deposition processes. How can I obtain the process information and the material for the process? Thanks Wen Ko Dear Mark & Mems Friends, >I have a suggestion that may help with many of >your formulations. >We are currently developing an electroless process >for depositing conductors onto ceramics and metal >using our nanopowders as well as away of laser >bonding them. We manufacture energetic nanosize >metal powders that can readily bond to metal and >ceramic substrates. The powders have a metastable >structure and undergo morphological transformation >at relatively low temperatures, releasing heat and >creating fresh surfaces. When the powders >exotherm, they are very reactive with substrates >and under appropriate conditions, they will form >adherent coatings.
