Abstract: A waveguide includes a body of material having a width, a thickness, and a length, where the width is orthogonal to the thickness, and the length is orthogonal to the thickness and the width. The material includes polycrystalline ceramic that is transmissive such that the body is configured as a waveguide. The thickness is no more than 5 millimeters and at least 20 nanometers, the width is greater than or equal to the thickness, and the length is at least 100 times greater than the width. The body of material has a granular profile such that grains of the material protrude generally outward from a surface of the body with a height of at least 25 nanometers and no more than 100 micrometers relative to recessed portions of the surface of the body at boundaries between the grains.

Abstract: A system, process and related sintered article are provided. The process includes supporting a piece of inorganic material with a pressurized gas and sintering the piece of inorganic material while supported by the pressurized gas by heating the piece of inorganic material to a temperature at or above a sintering temperature of the inorganic material such that the inorganic material is at least partially sintered forming the sintered article. The inorganic material is not in contact with a solid support during sintering. The sintered article, such as a ceramic article, is thin, has high surface quality, and/or has large surface areas.

Abstract: The THz waveguides disclosed herein are used to transmit signals having a THz frequency in the range from 0.1 THz to 10 THz and include an alumina core surrounded by an optional cladding. The core may have a diameter (D1) in the range from 10 μm to 500 μm and may be comprised of a ceramic ribbon having a dielectric constant (Dk). The optional cladding may have a dielectric constant (Dk) less than the core. The THz waveguides can be formed using a continuous firing process and nano-perforation technology that enables access to a wide form factor range. In one example, rectangular waveguides, or ribbons, may be fabricated in the 10 μm to 200 μm thick range at widths in the range from sub-millimeters to several meters and lengths in the range from millimeters to several hundred meters.

Abstract: Ceramic assembly can comprise a ceramic article comprising a thickness defined between a first major surface and a second major surface. The thickness can be about 100 micrometers or less. The ceramic assembly can comprise a polymer coating deposited over at least an outer peripheral portion of the first major surface of the ceramic article. The polymer coating can comprise a thickness of about 30 micrometers or less. An edge strength of the ceramic assembly can be greater than an edge strength of the ceramic article by about 50 MegaPascals or more. Methods of forming a ceramic assembly can comprise depositing a polymer coating on an outer peripheral portion of a first major surface of a ceramic article. Methods can further comprise curing the polymer coating.

Abstract: A manufacturing line includes a tape of green material that is directed through a furnace so that the furnace burns off organic binder material and then partially sinters the tape without the use of a setter board. Sintered articles resulting from the manufacturing line may be thin with relatively large surface areas; and, while substantially unpolished, have few sintering-induced surface defects. Tension may be applied to the partially sintered tape as it passes through a second furnace on the manufacturing line to shape resulting sintered articles.

Abstract: Described herein is a substrate including a central longitudinal axis, a first support web, and a second support web. A sinuous web may be positioned between the first support web and the second support web. The sinuous web may include transverse web portions and bridging web portions, where the bridging web portions alternatively connect ends of adjacent transverse web portions. The sinuous web may be connected to the first support web by support legs extending between bridging web portions and a surface of the first support web. The sinuous web may be connected to the second support web by support legs extending between bridging web portions and a surface of the second support web. A support leg length to distance between transverse web portions ratio may be from about 1.0 to about 4.0.
