A method is for manufacturing a structure obtained by stacking a substrate that is a first member as a base material, and lens arrays that are second members that are opposed to the substrate, are formed of a resin material different from the substrate, and have a shape on a surface. The method includes a surface activation step of performing an activation treatment to cause an activation state of at least one of a surface of the substrate or a surface of the lens arrays, and a bonding step of pressurizing the lens arrays at least at a temperature that is equal to or higher than a reference temperature obtained by subtracting 30° C. from a load deflection temperature of a resin material of the lens arrays, and is equal to or lower than a glass transition temperature, to closely bond to the substrate.

A fiber reinforced metal composite having a metal layer and a fiber layer which are arranged in a stack, and adjacent layers are fixed by bonding; the composite has a two-layered or three-layered structure, wherein one layer is closely adhered to another layer and the thickness of the layer is from 0.6 mm˜0.9 mm. Such structure changes the structure of the existing fiber metal composite characterized by generally having more than three layers, and greatly reduces the thickness of the composite while maintaining good mechanical properties. Also disclosed is an application of fiber reinforced metal composite in the field of luggage case manufacturing, providing two preparation methods for providing fiber reinforced metal case shell with simple and available operations.

A composite pane for separating an interior space from an external environment, includes an inner pane, an outer pane with an inner surface, and an intermediate layer that areally joins the inner surface of the outer pane to an outer surface of the inner pane, a capacitive sensor for detecting moisture having at least one capacitor that is connected to an electronic sensor unit, which is provided for detecting a change in capacitance of the capacitor, wherein the capacitor has at least two electrodes formed from a transparent, electrically conductive coating, which are capacitively coupled.

A mask and method of making a plurality of masks. The method includes forming a first sheet by joining a first material to a second material and forming a second sheet by joining a third material to a fourth material. The method further includes stacking the first sheet on top of the second sheet and connecting the first sheet and second sheet by joining the first material and the third material. Once the first sheet sand second sheet are joined, a mask or plurality of masks are cut from the stacked first sheet and second sheet, and the first material and the third material form the main body portion of the mask or plurality of masks, and the second material and fourth material form the fastening portion of the mask or plurality of masks.

A laminate including a metal substrate having a chemically etched surface and a fluoroelastomer layer laminated in contact with the chemically etched surface or laminated in contact with a surface of a fluororesin layer laminated in contact with the chemically etched surface, and a gate seal including the laminate, are provided.

A device comprising at least one pressure generation unit and a heating unit, the heating unit comprising a two-sided inductor and being configured to generate a uniform alternating magnetic field in an assembly comprising two parts made of composite materials comprising carbon fibers embedded in a resin and a field absorber. The field absorber is configured to absorb the magnetic field and comprising a ferromagnetic material. The field absorber is arranged at the contact walls of the two parts, so as to heat them to at least a transformation temperature of the resin.

Embodiments generally relate to apparatus and methods for dismantling a hermetically sealed chamber. In one embodiment, an apparatus facilitating the opening of a hermetically sealed chamber in a device comprises a fixture configured to hold the device, and a system configured to create sufficient tensile or shear stress at a bond interface of the seal to open the seal under controlled conditions. In one embodiment, a method for opening a hermetic seal between first and second elements forming a chamber in a microfluidic chip comprises using a release technique creating sufficient tensile or shear stress at a bond interface of the seal to open the seal under controlled conditions. The release technique comprises introducing a tool to the vicinity of the interface without any contact between the tool and any material within the chamber. The breaking of the seal results in the complete separation of the first and second elements.
