Thermocompressive process bonds gold-coated substrates. (Welding/Joining).
Advanced Materials & Processes, December, 2002
A technique of thermocompressive gold-to-gold diffusion bonding at relatively low temperatures has reportedly been developed to provide stable, uniform, strong bonds between structural components of microelectromechanical systems by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif. The parts to be joined must have faying surfaces that are either flat or shaped to fit each other.
