Advantages With Anisotropic Conductive Adhesive Films Comprising Aligned Particles

VP Sales and Marketing
CondAlign’s technology represents a novel process for production of anisotropic, conductive films. Using an electric field to structure and align particles, the results in a z-axis conductive film structure. One product type we can produce is anisotropic conductive adhesive (ACA) films with thicknesses from a few µm to some hundreds µm and resistance below 0,01 Ohm/cm^2. With very high chain densities (pitch below 10µm), these films are currently being tested in several bonding processes, like FOB, FOF, COB, COF, as an alternative to traditional ACF. The process is demonstrated in roll-to-roll production, proofing it is scalable and cost effective.

New Business Development Manager
Continued advances in Flexible Hybrid Electronics have required material suppliers to deliver improved functionality to the device developers in broad applications such as sensors, displays, barrier films, photovoltaics, medical diagnostics, consumer electronics, HMI (Human Machine Interface), and Flexible Printed Circuits (FPCs).
Demands on the film substrate suppliers can vary widely, and polymer property requirements typically include: clean surfaces with low surface defects, optically clear films with low haze and iridescence, near zero thermal shrinkage for multilayer print registration and component attach via solder reflow, UV and Hydrolysis resistance, and VTM-0 Flame Retardance. Many requests also include an ability to further tailor the surface chemistry to improve and enhance the downstream processing performance. New commercial polyester film types have been introduced by DuPont Teijin Films, and their typical end use applications will be described.
Fraunhofer FEP performs Roll-to-Roll film processing, and they are developing transparent and robust permeation Barrier Films for Flexible Electronics. The substrate choice is critical for optimized performance, and Fraunhofer FEP will describe their journey and key learnings.

This presentation reviews two of META’s key technology development strands: metaOPTIX™ holographic optical technology and NanoWeb® transparent conductive nanostructures
metaOPTIX™ holographic optical components are fabricated on META’s Holography platform. Interference patterns are recorded with a laser into a light-sensitive photopolymer material to form Volume Holographic Gratings (VHGs), which transmit or reflect light in various ways, depending on the geometric structure of the recorded pattern.
NANOWEB® is a transparent conductor made of an invisible metal mesh that can be fabricated onto any glass or plastic surface. It offers a superior alternative to Indium Tin Oxide (ITO), Silver Nanowire (AgNW), graphene and carbon nanotube among other ITO-alternative technologies.

The electronics industry has the potential to be an attractive market for the additive industry and wants to be conquered. To put it somewhat provocatively, this is currently happening more on the part of the AM than on the part of the electronics industry - although there are many large overlaps here. Small components, sustainability, free geometries, specific customer solutions, sensors and antennas, Industry 4.0...just to name a few.
But how easy is the fusion of the two industries really? What hurdles have to be overcome, what challenges are ahead and what opportunities are opening up?
The presentation will give an insight into the methods and projects from practice at Würth Elektronik eiSos and is intended to create incentives to go new ways.
