Dependence of Monocrystalline Sapphire Dicing on Crystal Orientation Using Picosecond Laser Bessel Beams.

Dicing is a critical step in the manufacturing process for the application of sapphire. In this work, the dependence of sapphire dicing on crystal orientation using picosecond Bessel laser beam drilling combined with mechanical cleavage was studied. By using the above method, linear cleaving with on debris and zero tapers was realized for the A1, A2, C1, C2, and M1 orientations, except for the M2 orientation.

Kinetic analysis of wetting and spreading at high temperatures: A review.

The kinetic factors of the liquid-solid interface formation process are extremely useful in the design of composite preparation methods and the manufacture of comprehensive performance-controlled metal- or ceramic-based composites. Here, we review the available spreading dynamic models, focusing on wetting at high temperatures. There is yet to be developed a general spreading dynamic model with complete physical meaning that can accurately describe complicated surface-interface kinetic processes at high temperatures.

Reactive Infiltration and Microstructural Characteristics of Sn-V Active Solder Alloys on Porous Graphite.

In this work, the reactive wetting and infiltration behaviors of a newly designed Sn-V binary alloy were comprehensively explored on porous graphite for the first time. It was discovered that 0.5 wt.
