Ultra-low-temperature co-fireable
Li2WO4 substrate
has been developed using an environmental friendly tape-casting technique.
The nonaqueous tape-casting slurry comprised of an eco-friendly binder-solvent
system consisting of polypropylene carbonate as binder and dimethyl
carbonate as solvent. The structural, thermal, morphological, rheological,
and electrical properties of the sintered substrate is investigated.
The bulk ceramics sintered at 650 °C possess a relatively high
thermal expansion coefficient of about 16 ppm/°C. The thermal
conductivity of sintered tape measured at room temperature was about
2.6 W/m·K. The sintered substrate exhibits excellent microwave
dielectric properties with a relative permittivity of 5.4 and a very
low dielectric loss of 9.21 × 10–5 at 5 GHz
and is co-fireable with Ag electrode.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
