There is provided a laser welding method of joining a bus bar and an intermediate member by irradiating a laser beam on a surface of the intermediate member with the bus bar and the intermediate member being overlapped with each other. The laser welding method includes: a first welding step of forming a first welding line by moving the laser beam in a C shape from a welding start point to a welding intermediate point when viewed from a direction orthogonal to a surface of the intermediate member; and a second welding step of forming a second welding line continuous with the first welding line by moving the laser beam from the welding intermediate point to a welding end point located in a welding region formed inside the first welding line from the welding start point and the welding intermediate point.

A method for transferring an electronic device includes steps as follows. A flexible carrier is provided and has a surface with a plurality of electronic devices disposed thereon. A target substrate is provided corresponding to the surface of the flexible carrier. A pin is provided, and a pin end thereof presses on another surface of the flexible carrier without the electronic devices disposed thereon, so that the flexible carrier is deformed, causing at least one of the electronic devices to move toward the target substrate and to be in contact with the target substrate. A beam is provided to transmit at least a portion of the pin and emitted from the pin end to melt a solder. The electronic device is fixed on the target substrate by soldering. The pin is moved to restore the flexible carrier to its original shape, allowing the electronic device fixed by soldering to separate from the carrier.

The invention relates to a laser brazing system, comprising a braze tool having a laser configured to emit a laser beam along a radiation path, and a braze wire tool being configured to guide a braze wire along a wire path intersecting the laser beam. The system comprises a jig comprising a first alignment surface and a first blocking surface, wherein the first alignment surface is configured to be in contact with the braze wire while the first blocking surface blocks at least a first part of the emitted laser beam, and a detector arranged in the radiation path and configured to detect the emitted light of the laser beam passing the jig.

A process for room temperature substrate bonding employs a first substrate substantially transparent to a laser wavelength is selected. A second substrate for mating at an interface with the first substrate is then selected. A transmissivity change at the interface is created and the first and second substrates are mated at the interface. The first substrate is then irradiated with a laser of the transparency wavelength substantially focused at the interface and a localized high temperature at the interface from energy supplied by the laser is created. The first and second substrates immediately adjacent the interface are softened with diffusion across the interface to fuse the substrates.

A method of furnace-less brazing of a substrate is provided. The method includes providing a substrate having a brazing region thereon; disposing braze precursor material containing a nickel powder, an aluminum powder, and a platinum group metal powder on the brazing region; and initiating an exothermic reaction of the braze precursor material such that the exothermic reaction produces a braze material that reaches a braze temperature above the liquidus temperature for the braze material. A braze precursor material is also provided.

A roof laser brazing system comprises a side home position jig installed at each of opposite sides of the transferring path of the body in the brazing section, a roof-pressing jig detachably mounted on a handling robot, docked to the side home position jig, and that home-positions and presses the roof panel loaded on the opposite side panels, a brazing assembly mounted on at least one brazing robot in the side home position jig side and that brazes bonding portions between the opposite side panels and the roof panel using a laser as a heat source, and a grinding assembly mounted on the at least one grinding robot in the grinding section and that grinds brazing beads of the bonding portions between the opposite side panels and the roof panel.

A joining device and method for laser-based joining of two components includes a first laser radiation source, a first radiation guide connected to the first radiation source to couple first laser radiation into the first radiation guide, a second laser radiation source, at least one second radiation guide connected to the second radiation source to couple second laser radiation into the second radiation guide, and a focusing device coupled to the laser radiations and focusing them at a distance from each other into a joining zone of the components. To reduce installation effort, the focusing device focuses the first and second laser radiations through a common beam path and a coupling device is connected on its input side to the first and second radiation guides and on its output side to the focusing device. The coupling device couples the first and second laser radiations into the common beam path.

A method for fabrication includes providing a donor sheet, including a donor substrate, which is transparent in a specified spectral range, a sacrificial layer, which absorbs optical radiation within the specified spectral range and is disposed over the donor substrate, and a donor film, which includes a paste and is disposed over the sacrificial layer. The donor sheet is positioned so that the donor film is in proximity to a target location on an acceptor substrate. A pulsed laser beam impinges on the sacrificial layer with a pulse energy and spot size selected so as to ablate the sacrificial layer, thus causing a viscoelastic jet of the paste to be ejected from the donor film and to deposit, at the target location on the acceptor substrate, a dot having a diameter less than the spot size of the laser beam.

In one example, a system comprises a laser assisted bonding (LAB) tool. The LAB tool comprises a stage block and a first lateral laser source facing the stage block from a lateral side of the stage block. The stage block is configured to support a substrate and a first electronic component coupled with the substrate, and the first electronic component comprises a first interconnect. The first lateral laser source is configured to emit a first lateral laser beam laterally toward the stage block to induce a first heat on the first interconnect to bond the first interconnect with the substrate. Other examples and related methods are also disclosed herein.
