For many years polymers have been widely used in all sectors of the electronics industry mainly for their insulating properties. However, in recent years a large number of other applications for polymers in electronics has evolved, for instance, the development of photoresists capable of creating sub-micron-sized features in semi-conductor wafer fabrication. The principle reason why polymers find wide application in electronics is that they are good dielectric materials with readily controllable properties. More recently many polymers have been developed which have intrinsic properties that make them of special interest in advanced electronics applications, such as the development of intrinsically conducting polymers. This book outlines some of the more recent developments in the chemistry, formulation and application of polymers and their composites in the electronic and optoelectronic industries. As well as discussing the present position in a wide area of applications, introductory information is included in each chapter, to help the reader entering a particular area for the first time.
Special Polymers for Electronics and Optoelectronics should be of interest to those working with electronic materials in both universities and the electronics industry, and to academics and industrial R&D working with electronic materials and polymers.
