          Appeal No. 2000-2001                                                        
          Application No. 09/172,732                                                  

          heat spreader, however, the prior art has not suggested the                 
          recited application of ZnCr layer being used as an adhesive                 
          between the heat spreader and the substrate.  Therefore, we are             
          not convinced by the Examiner’s arguments.                                  
               Since this recited feature appears in all the claims on                
          appeal, we do not sustain the obviousness rejection of claims               
          1-21 over Miyamoto and the admitted prior art.
