Disclosed herein is a composition comprising a regioregular oligothiophene, a regioregular poly[2,5-bis(3-alkylthiophen-2-yl)thieno(3,2-b)thiophene] and/or a benzothiophene; where the regioregular oligothiophene, the regioregular poly[2,5-bis(3-alkylthiophen-2-yl)thieno(3,2-b)thiophene] and the benzothiophene each have a number average molecular weight of less than or equal to 475 grams per mole; where the composition is melted and then annealed at a temperature between a melting point and a glass transition temperature of the composition; the composition having a charge mobility that is greater than a comparative composition that is either not annealed or annealed at the same temperature between the melting point and the glass transition temperature but without being subjected to prior melting.

Highly crystalline electrically conducting organic materials, methods of manufacture thereof and articles comprising the same

Arylclobutene-containing multi-functional monomers are useful in the preparation of arylcyclobutene-based polymer coatings. Compositions comprising one or more arylclobutene-containing multi-functional monomers and one or more oligomers comprising as polymerized units one or more arylcyclobutene monomer provide arylcyclobutene-based polymer coatings having reduced stress. Such compositions are useful in the manufacture of electronic devices.

Arylcyclobutenes

Compositions containing an adhesive material, a release additive and a compatibilizer are suitable for temporarily bonding two surfaces, such as a wafer active side and a substrate. These compositions are useful in the manufacture of electronic devices where a temporary bonding of a component to a substrate is desired.

Ephemeral bonding

Disclosed herein is a composition comprising a regioregular polyalkylthiophene and/or a regioregular poly[2,5-bis(3-alkylthiophen-2-yl)thieno(3,2-b)thiophene]; where the composition is melted and then cooled to a temperature between a melting point and a glass transition temperature of the composition; the composition having an amount of crystallinity that is at least twice the amount of crystallinity of another identical composition that is crystallized by a method that does not involve melting and cooling to a temperature between the melting point and the glass transition temperature of the identical composition.

Highly crystalline electrically conducting polymers, methods of manufacture thereof and articles comprising the same

Arylcyclobutene polymers having improved toughness are provided. Compositions and methods for coating arylcyclobutene polymers having improved toughness are also provided.

Toughened arylcyclobutene polymers

Disclosed herein is a composition comprising a regioregular polyalkylthiophene and/or a regioregular poly[2,5-bis(3-alkylthiophen-2-yl)thieno(3,2-b)thiophene]; and a metallocene; where the metallocene is present in an amount of greater than 50 wt %, based on the total weight of the composition. Disclosed herein too is a method of manufacturing a thin film comprising dissolving a regioregular polyalkylthiophene or a regioregular poly[2,5-bis(3-alkylthiophen-2-yl)thieno(3,2-b)thiophene] in a solvent to form a solution; dissolving a metallocene in the solution; disposing the solution on a substrate; and annealing the substrate.

Electrically conducting composites, methods of manufacture thereof and articles comprising the same

Disclosed herein is a composition comprising a regioregular polyalkylthiophene and/or a regioregular poly[2,5-bis(3-alkylthiophen-2-yl)thieno(3,2-b)thiophene]; and a metallocene; where the metallocene is present in an amount of greater than 75 wt %, based on the total weight of the composition; where the charge mobility is increased by a factor of 3 or more over compositions having 50 wt % of ferrocene or less with the remainder being a regioregular polyalkylthiophene and/or a regioregular poly[2,5-bis(3-alkylthiophen-2-yl)thieno(3,2-b)thiophene]. Disclosed herein too is a method of manufacturing a thin film comprising dissolving a regioregular polyalkylthiophene and/or a regioregular poly[2,5-bis(3-alkylthiophen-2-yl)thieno(3,2-b)thiophene] in a solvent to form a solution; dissolving a metallocene in the solution; where the metallocene is present in an amount of 75 wt % or greater based on the total weight of the ferrocene and the regioregular polyalkylthiophene and/or the regioregular poly[2,5-bis(3-alkylthiophen-2-yl)thieno(3,2-b)thiophene]; disposing the solution on a substrate; and annealing the substrate.

Silver electroplating baths having certain sulfide compounds and methods of electrodepositing a silver-containing layer using these baths are disclosed. Such electroplating baths are useful to provide silver-containing solder deposits having reduced void formation and improved within-die uniformity.

Plating bath and method

Tin-silver alloy electroplating baths having certain amine-oxide surfactants and methods of electrodepositing a tin-silver-containing layer using these baths are disclosed. Such electroplating baths are useful to provide tin-silver solder deposits having reduced void formation and improved within-die uniformity.
