Photosensitive polyimide adhesive sheet
Positive tone Photosensitive Polyimide B-stage sheet which was composed of transparent soluble polyimide, naphthoquinone diazide compound, thermal cross linker and solvent, was developed. We designed new polyimide structure and cross linker suitable for photosensitive polyimide sheet. The photosensitive sheet shows fine pattern formation capability as well as good thermal stability and mechanical properties. It is quite easy to obtain flat surface on topological surface to laminate the photosensitive sheet.
Fine Resolution Photosensitive Polyimide Dry Film with High Resistance to Electromigration under HAST condition
Abstract We investigated the effects of photosensitive system (positive and negative) and polymer structures on Cu migration under bias HAST test. The HAST condition is 130C for 85% RH. Bias condition is 2MV/m. We found that there is polyimide structure shows big effect is big effect of no big difference between negative photosensitivity and positive photosensitivity in photo sensensitive polyimides. Polyimide structure effects significant difference on Cu migration under bias HAST condition. Cu migration of soft polyimide seems better than that of rigid polyimide. From these results, we developed good reliable photosensitive polyimide B-sheet having fine pattern capability successfully.
Immune dysfunction following infection with chicken anemia agent and infectious bursal disease virus. II. Alterations of in vitro lymphoproliferation and in vivo immune responses.
To determine the functional impact of alterations in lymphocyte concentrations and ratios following infection with chicken anemia agent (CAA) alone or in combination with infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) on the immune system of young chickens, in vitro lymphoproliferation assays and in vivo responses to vaccination with several common viral agents were assessed at various time intervals post-inoculation (PI). Concanavalin A (Con A), phytohemagglutinin (PHA) and pokeweed mitogen (PWM) stimulation of splenic lymphocytes (SPL) collected from control birds could not be detected until 10-14 days PI. Infection with CAA was characterized by significantly higher PWM stimulation of SPL at 17 days PI and significantly lower PWM stimulation of peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) at 14 days PI, compared with uninfected controls. Concanavalin A and PWM stimulation of SPL was significantly increased in birds inoculated with IBDV alone. Lymphocytes harvested from birds inoculated simultaneously with CAA and IBDV had significantly lower responses. Effects on humoral and cell-mediated immunity following CAA and/or IBDV were determined by evaluating vaccination responses to Newcastle disease virus (NDV), fowl pox virus (FPV) and infectious laryngotracheitis virus (ILTV) during the acute phase of CAA infection (2 weeks PI). Vaccination of birds 2 weeks following CAA infection at 1 day of age resulted in decreased protection against NDV (85.7%) and ILTV (7.1%) challenge compared with protection rates in control birds (100% and 53.3% respectively). Infectious bursal disease virus infection was associated with decreased protection against NDV (60%) only. Concomitant infection at 1 day of age resulted in a greater reduction in NDV challenge protection (33.3%), slightly decreased FPV protection (87.5%), increased numbers of persistent FPV vaccination lesions and increased protection against ILTV challenge (71.4%). Vaccination of birds 2 weeks following CAA infection at 2 weeks of age resulted in slightly decreased NDV humoral antibody, development of persistent FPV vaccination lesions (17%) and increased immunity to ILTV challenge compared with control birds (83.3% vs. 66.7%). Chickens inoculated with IBDV alone displayed a more severe depression in NDV antibody titers and only a slight decrease in ILTV protection. Vaccination following concomitant infection at 2 weeks of age resulted in a higher percentage of FPV persistent vaccination lesions (39%) and greatly enhanced immunity to ILTV challenge (100%).
