Abstract:
The low-K and mid-K co-fired microwave dielectric materials for low temperature co-fired ceramics (LTCC) were investigated. The mid-K material is Ba5Nb4O15 ceramic added with <10% glass (BN-40). The low-K materials include BaWO4 ceramic added with <10% glass (BW-10), CaMgSi2O6 glass-ceramics (CMS-7), and CaO-Al2O3-B2O3-SiO2 glass added with Al2O3 ceramic-filler (CABS-7). BN-40 and BW-10 contain less than 3% silicate oxide addition, and CMS-7 and CABS-7 contain high concentrations of silicate oxide up to above 50%. In order to develop the heterogeneous co-firing of low-K and mid-K materials, four materials were prepared by tape casting and then low/mid-K materials co-fired at 900oC for 30 mins with Ag electrode.
The BN-40 co-fired with both CMS-7 and CABS-7 shows high Si diffusion in the heterogeneous boundary. CMS-7 and CABS-7 co-fired with silver inner-electrode also exhibit high silver diffusion in the matrix. It was suggested that the liquid phase sintering easily induces interaction and silver diffusion due to the high silicate concentration. Moreover, the BN-40 co-fired with BW-10 exhibits clearly heterogeneous boundary and no Ag diffusion due to a few silicate existence in the BN-40 and BW-10. BN-40 and BW-10 can be considered as candidates for low-K and mid-K co-fired materials for LTCC development. In order to inhibit silver diffusion, 0-2.0 wt% SiO2 added CMS-7 glass-ceramics co-fired with silver electrode were studied. SiO2-added CaMgSi2O6 exhibits a reduction of inter-diffusion and Ag-O phase in the diffusive layer, indicating that SiO2 addition in the CaMgSi2O6 can inhibit inter-diffusions. 2 wt% SiO2-added in CMS-7 glass-ceramics were prepared to fabric the patch antenna. The patch antenna exhibits a return loss of S11 = -23 dB at frequency = 28GHz, which is better than ~S11 = -18 dB in specimens without SiO2 addition.
