Derivation of the Weibull Graph Folks, Last time we introduced Weibull analysis. Let’s now derive the relationships needed to calculate the slop...
Due to its softness and compressibility, indium is ideal for use in creating a seal. Let’s get right into it: Indium preforms are commonly...
NanoFoil® is available in various thicknesses to suit different applications. In each variation, the thickness of each Aluminum and Nickel bi-laye...
At this point in the NanoBond® process, you should have successfully designed, setup, and activated/reacted the NanoFoil® – but how do...
In an earlier post I mentioned that cross-sectioning a NanoBond® was one of my favorite tests. My other favorite test is shear testing. It̵...
With time, cryogenic and vacuum seals wear out and lose their ability to perform. Sometimes the need for replacement is due to heat or con...
Assuming that your application follows the DFNB (design for NanoBond®) guidelines, you are ready to prepare your parts/components for assembly. Wh...
During a NanoBond® reaction, assembly pressure may determine if you create a quality solder joint. There are many details that can influence how ...
One of my favorite methods of examining a solder bond is cross sectioning. This may not give you a view over the entire area of the bondline, or give ...
It is hard to believe, but 50 years ago, on October 9th, the first visible light LED was demonstrated by Nick Holonyak, Jr. of GE Advanced......
