FRICTION FIT TARGET ASSEMBLY

摘要

A low temperature target and backing plate bonding process and assemblies made thereby. A plurality of male projections (8) are formed in one member (2) of the assembly with a plurality of corresponding female recesses (9) formed in the other member (4). The assembly is bonded by conventional techniques around the peripheral boundary (25) that surrounds the male and female portions (8, 9). The assembly is then pressure consolidated at low temperature so that the projections (8), circumscribed by the bonded zone, are force fit into the female recesses (9).
