20080290378 | Transistor package with wafer level dielectric isolation - A low cost transistor package is provided for high power applications. The package provides high thermal conductivity and dissipation for a silicon transistor die, high current carrying capability and isolation, and high power and thermal cycle life performance and reliability. A dielectric layer is fixed to a silicon transistor die, for coupling to a heat conducting buffer and attachment to a substrate. The dielectric layer is fixed to the die by growing the dielectric layer, depositing the dielectric layer, or applying the dielectric layer using a plasma spray. In an aspect, a conductive layer is formed to the silicon transistor die by a thermal or kinetic spray process, and the dielectric layer is applied to the conductive layer. The dielectric layer may also be established either before or after the transistor fabrication. Electrical and thermal interconnects are advantageously positioned from opposite sides of the silicon transistor die. | 11-27-2008 |
20090283032 | HIGH PERFORMANCE KINETIC SPRAY NOZZLE - A nozzle assembly for a kinetic spray system includes a convergent portion, a throat portion, and a divergent portion, each cooperating together to define a passage therethrough for passing a mixture of powder particles suspended in a flow of a high pressure heated gas. The nozzle assembly further includes an extension portion attached to the divergent portion and extending to a distal end a pre-determined length from the divergent portion of the nozzle assembly. The extension portion permits a dragging force exerted on the powder particles by the flow of high pressure heated gas to act upon the powder particles for a longer duration of time, thereby permitting the powder particles to accelerate to a greater velocity than has been previously achievable. | 11-19-2009 |
