Brewer Science, Inc., a major innovator of high-technology solutions for the semiconductor and microelectronics markets, is pleased to announce that it has been issued two new patents by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office:
- U.S. Patent No. 7,608,342 covers compositions and methods for use of a coating with high transparency and high electrical conductivity.
- U.S. Patent No. 7,608,380 covers spin bowl compatible polyamic acids/imides, with superior optical properties that are wet developable.
Brewer Science’s new high-transparency, highly conductive coatings utilize a photopolymer and an electrically conductive polymer dispersed in a solvent system. These new compositions can be applied to a variety of substrates.
“Brewer Science is committed to finding answers to technology challenges through innovative products and processes,” says Dr. Xing-Fu Zhong, Scientist and inventor. “Developing electrically conductive coatings that remain transparent will greatly improve flat panel displays and other optoelectronic devices.”
The company has also increased its set of novel microlithography materials. The need for anti-reflective coatings that can be removed by conventional photoresist developers, are spin-applied, and exhibit good coating and optical properties has led to the invention of new material compositions for the manufacture of microelectronic devices.
