The separator for lipid bilayer membrane formation includes a thin film having one or more through holes and made of a resin capable of being wet-etched, and reinforcing layers covering both surfaces of the thin film and made of a resin capable of being wet-etched. The reinforcing layers cover the whole area of the thin film, except for the through holes and the peripheries thereof, and each through hole has a tapered cross-sectional shape.

The present invention relates to a device for carrying out a capillary nanoprinting method, comprising at least one monolithic combination of a substrate (1) and one or more contact elements (2), at least parts of said contact elements (2) having a porous structure, preferably also at least parts of the substrate having a porous structure, particularly the entire monolithic combination having a porous structure.

A method for fabricating a metallic wire mesh touch sensor with reduced visibility. A metallic wire mesh is formed on a transparent substrate such that the surface of the metallic wires is roughened or textured, so as to cause high scattering of incident light, thereby minimizing specularly reflected light towards the user. The metal lines are formed over patterned catalytic photoresist. The rough or textured surface of the metallic wires is achieved by roughening or texturing the catalytic photoresist, by selecting parameters of electronless plating of copper, or both. An RMS surface roughness of about 50 nm would scatter approximately 70% of incident cyan light incident at 30°.

The invention relates to a method and a device for the exposure of a photosensitive coating.

Aspects of the present disclosure provide a method for optimizing wafer shape. For example, the method can include receiving a wafer having a working surface for one or more devices to be fabricated thereon and a backside surface opposite to the working surface, measuring the wafer to identify bow measurement of the wafer, and forming a first stress-modification film on the backside surface. The first stress-modification film can be reactive to a first wavelength of light in that exposure to the first wavelength of light modifies an internal stress of the first stress-modification film. The method can further include exposing the first stress-modification film to a pattern of the first wavelength of light to modify the internal stress of the first stress-modification film. The pattern of the first wavelength of light corresponds to the bow measurement.

A method for manufacturing the circuit board comprises following steps of forming a silver layer on each of two opposite surfaces of an insulating substrate, and forming a copper layer on each silver layer, thereby obtaining a middle structure; defining at least one through-hole on the middle structure, and each through-hole extending through each copper layer; forming a copper wiring layer on the copper layers to cover each through-hole and a portion region of the copper layers, the copper wiring layer comprising a copper conductive structure passing through each through-hole, the copper conductive structure connecting the copper layers; removing the copper layers not covered by the copper wiring layer; and etching the silver layers to form a silver wiring layer corresponding to the copper wiring layer, wherein a first etching liquid, which does not etch the copper wiring layer, is used for etching the silver layers.
