Ceramic Compositions and Properties for Dielectric Devices Applications

We will report and review several dielectric compositions with low sintering temperatures, high dielectric constants and low temperature coefficients. The processing conditions and phase stability of these dielectrics will be discussed and compared. We also evaluated their aging, resistivity and dielectric loss properties. The processing conditions and dopants used to enhance these critical device parameters will be analysed. Dielectrics suitable for sintering at low temperatures and low poe will be identified and reviewed. Interactions between dielectric and metallization during cofiring will also be discussed.
