Abstract:
A ceramic substrate includes a ceramic layer mainly formed of a glass ceramic and a conductor trace mainly formed of silver (Ag). In an adjacent region located adjacent to the conductor trace, the concentration of boron atoms (B) contained in the ceramic layer increases toward the conductor trace.
Abstract:
This circuit-board production method is provided with: a step for preparing a conductor paste obtained by adding, to silver (Ag) powder, a powder of a metal boride and/or a metal silicide; a step in which the conductor paste is applied to the surface of a baked ceramic substrate; a step in which a glass paste is applied to the surface of the ceramic substrate after the conductor paste has been applied; a step in which the conductor paste applied to the surface is baked to form a conductor pattern; and a step in which the glass paste applied to the surface is baked to form a coating layer.
Abstract:
This ceramic-substrate production method is provided with: a step for preparing a ceramic paste obtained by adding, to a starting-material powder of a glass ceramic, a powder of a metal boride and/or a metal silicide; a step in which the ceramic paste is applied to a green sheet which will become a ceramic layer after being baked; a step in which a conductor paste which will become a conductor pattern after being baked is applied on the ceramic paste applied to the green sheet; and a step in which the green sheet having the ceramic paste and the conductor paste applied thereto is baked.
Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a ceramic substrate containing glass, the method being provided with a firing step in which an unfired silver-based conductor material is arranged in an unfired ceramic layer and then fired, and the unfired silver-based conductor material containing a metal boride and/or a metal silicide
