Provided is a film for manufacturing a semiconductor part in which an evaluation step accompanied with a temperature change, a segmenting step, and a pickup step can be commonly performed, a method for manufacturing a semiconductor part, a semiconductor part, and an evaluation method. The film includes a base layer, and an adhesive layer disposed on one surface side of the base layer, wherein the ratio RE (=E′(160)/E′(−40)) of the elastic modulus of the base layer at 160° C. to the elastic modulus of the base layer at −40° C. is RE≥0.01, and the elastic modulus E′(−40) is 10 MPa to less than 1000 MPa. The method includes bonding the adhesive layer to a back surface of a semiconductor wafer, separating the semiconductor wafer into segments to obtain semiconductor parts, and separating the semiconductor parts from the adhesive layer, and includes a step of evaluating.

Provided are systems and methods for the post-treatment of dry adhesive microstructures. The microstructures may be post-treated to comprise mushroom-like flaps at their tips to interface with the contact surface. In some aspects, a change in material composition of the microstructures in a dry adhesive may affect mechanical properties to enhance or diminish overall adhesive performance. For example, conductive additives can be added to the material to improve adhesive performance. In other aspects, microstructures comprising conductive material may allow for preload engagement sensing systems to be integrated into the microstructures.

The present invention relates to an elongated elastic seam tape comprising an elongated elastic conductor as well as to a method of manufacturing such an elongated elastic seam tape.

A device having a structured coating for adhering to rough, in particular, biological surfaces, includes a carrier layer, wherein a plurality of protrusions is arranged on the carrier layer, which protrusions each comprise at least one stem having an end face pointing away from the surface, and wherein a further layer is arranged at least on the end face, wherein the layer has a lower modulus of elasticity and is in the form of a film that interconnects the protrusions. The film can also be in the form of a removable film.

In devices with flexible displays, multilayer adhesive stacks may be included. A multilayer adhesive may attach a flexible display panel to the display cover layer in an electronic device. Including multiple layers of adhesive in the adhesive stack (as opposed to a single layer) provides more degrees of freedom for the tuning and optimization of the properties of the adhesive stack. The multilayer adhesive stack therefore has better performance than if only a single layer of adhesive is used. The multilayer adhesive stack may include one or more layers of soft adhesive, hard adhesive, hard elastomer, hard polymer, and/or glass to optimize the mechanical and optical performance of the multilayer adhesive stack. Soft adhesive layers may be included to optimize lateral decoupling (e.g., during folding and unfolding) of the adhesive stack. Harder layers may be included to provide rigidity and prevent denting during impact events.
