Evaluation of process requirements for room temperature direct copper bonding by Chen, Qiang.

“…In this thesis, by coating the copper surface with a self assembled monolayer of alkanethiol prior to bonding, Cu joints can be successfully formed at room temperature in ambient environment, yielding joint shear strength up to 60MPa. Copper bond shear strength of 15 MPa is achieved even at 50MPa at 25°C with copper coated with C18. …”

Secure and secret cooperation in robotic swarms by Castelló Ferrer, Eduardo, Hardjono, Thomas, Pentland, Alex 'Sandy', Dorigo, Marco

“…We propose a system where robots in a swarm, to cooperate towards mission completion, have to "prove" their integrity to their peers by exchanging cryptographic proofs. We show the implications of this approach for two different swarm robotics missions: foraging and maze formation. …”
