Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A powder film forming method includes the steps of: filling an opening with a powder, the opening being formed in a screen plate; and forming the powder film by generating an electric potential difference between the screen plate and a substrate so as to cause the powder, which is filling the opening, to move to the substrate.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A method of forming a powder film, comprising the steps of: (a) filling an opening with a powder, the opening being formed in a powder filling member; and (b) forming the powder film by generating an electric potential difference between the powder filling member and a substrate so as to cause the powder, which is filling the opening, to move to the substrate. 2 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein in the step (a), the powder is rubbed by a rubbing body so as to fill the opening. 3 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein in the step (a), the powder is vibrated so as to fill the opening. 4 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein in the step (a), the powder to fill the opening is charged. 5 . The method according to claim 4 , wherein in the step (a), the powder, which is charged, is caused to fill the powder filling member by spraying with use of an electrostatic spray. 6 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein in the step (b), the powder is rubbed by a rubbing body so as to move to the substrate. 7 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein in the step (b), the powder is vibrated so as to move to the substrate. 8 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein: the powder filling member includes a porous body and a covering part provided on one surface of the porous body; the covering part has the opening; and in the step (b), the covering part is provided on a side facing the substrate. 9 . A powder film forming device comprising: a powder filling member having an opening to be filled with a powder; a rubbing body configured to rub the powder into the opening from one end side of the opening so as to fill the opening with the powder; and a power supply configured to generate an electric potential difference between the powder filling member and a substrate so as to cause the powder, which is filling the opening, to move to the substrate. 10 . The powder film forming device according to claim 9 , further comprising: a vibration exciting section configured to subject the powder filling member to vibration excitation. 11 . The powder film forming device according to claim 9 , further comprising: an electrostatic spray configured to fill the opening with the powder. 12 . A method of forming a powder film, comprising the steps of: (a) filling an opening with a powder by vibrating the powder, the opening being formed in a powder filling member; and (b) forming the powder film by causing the powder, which is filling the opening, to move to the substrate. 13 . The method according to claim 12 , wherein in the step (b), the powder is rubbed by a rubbing body so as to move to the substrate. 14 . The method according to claim 12 , wherein in the step (b), the powder is vibrated so as to move to the substrate. 15 . The method according to claim 12 , wherein: the powder filling member includes a porous body and a covering part provided on one surface of the porous body; the covering part has the opening; and in the step (b), the covering part is provided on a side facing the substrate.
