When make multi-layer ceramics device such as EMI filter, there are a lot of process problems. Specially, crack, camber and delamination should be controlled surely by different sinter shrinkage rate of interface of two materials. The purpose of this work was to co-fire defectfree ferrite/varistor ceramic multi-layers fabricated via a calcination temperature and organic vehicle contents of ferrite. Sintering shrinkage of both calcined ferrite and varistor materials were measured using dilatometer. X-ray diffraction analysis indicated that no significant phase change occurred in the materials under investigation as a result of the sintering process. Crack and delamination of each interface were observed by scanning electron microscopy and optical microscope. We obtained the defect-free and co-fired ferrite/varistor ceramic multi-layer by controlling calcinations temperature.
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.
