The present invention relates generally to a new apparatus and method for simultaneously laminating a plurality of substrates having at least one cavity. More particularly, the invention encompasses apparatus and method for fabricating cavities in MLC (multi-layer ceramic). A membrane with or without an opening is placed on the top surface of the unlaminated green sheet having at least one cavity and then standard pressure is applied to laminate the green sheets, while simultaneously a counter pressure is applied in the cavity to prevent the cavity from deforming or collapsing. This is done to simultaneously form a plurality of cavity substrates.

A method for forming a co-fired glass ceramic structure including the steps of:forming at least one green sheet of a first crystallizable glass in a thermally decomposable binder;metallizing the green sheet with a pattern of conductive paste including conductive metal, a second crystallizable glass and a thermally decomposable binder, the pattern including at least one via;firing the green sheet according to the following firing cycle steps:a. preheating the green sheet to a first temperature in a furnace with a neutral or reducing ambient so as to effect pyrolysis of the thermally decomposable binders, wherein the first temperature is insufficient to coalesce the first crystallizable glass or the conductive paste;b. introducing a steam ambient into the furnace and then heating the green sheet in the furnace at the first temperature to burn off the pyrolyzed binders;c. replacing the steam ambient with a neutral or reducing ambient and raising the temperature to a second temperature to effect densification and crystallization of the first and second glasses;d. maintaining the second temperature for a predetermined time to effect sealing of the at least one via wherein for a first portion of the predetermined time, the ambient in said furnace is a neutral or reducing ambient and for a second portion of the predetermined time, the neutral or reducing ambient is replaced with a steam ambient; ande. cooling the structure.

There is disclosed the enhancement of the removal of carbon from multilayer ceramic substrate laminate during the sintering thereof. A multilayer ceramic substrate laminate having metallic lines and vias is provided with a reducible metal oxide in close proximity to the substrate laminate. The multilayer ceramic substrate laminate contains a polymeric binder which upon heating depolymerizes into carbon. The substrate laminate is sintered in an atmosphere which is reducing with respect to the reducible metal oxide and which is oxidizing with respect to the carbon.

A heat sink and method for using the same for use in cooling an integrated circuit (IC) chip is provided herein. The heat sink includes a manifold block, a liquid-filled cooling system, and a compliant foil affixed to the manifold block and backed by a liquid in the closed loop cooling system. The pressure provided by the liquid behind the foil causes the foil to bow, and to conform to non-planarities in the surface of the IC chip, thus reducing air gaps and increasing thermal coupling between the IC chip and the heat sink.

A distribution apparatus, system and method for thermal control whereby a plate of a manifold assembly has predetermined surface features positioned on specific locations on a surface thereof for enhancing the cooling capabilities of the assembly. The predetermined surface features of the plate delay a velocity decay of a fluid impinging the surface of the plate, while also increase the surface area of the plate exposed to the impinging liquid, which in turn, maximize both the reliability and thermal performance of the overall thermal system at a given maximum operating pressure.

Methods for forming and the intermediate greensheet products formed are provided by attaching a removable support film to a first surface of a greensheet and a frame to a second surface of the greensheet. The support film is preferably a peelable support film cast to the first surface of the greensheet for providing strength thereto. A plurality of openings are formed in the greensheet by punching into the support film, through the support film and then through the greensheet. During this process, the support film provides added strength to the greensheet therein significantly reducing embossing and deformation of such greensheet. A second support film may be attached to the removable support film using an adhesive layer, which, is extruded into the openings upon attachment. The support film(s) may be peeled off the greensheet with little or no impact on via locations as a metal frame continues to support the greensheet.

A method of processing greensheets for use as microelectronic substrates comprises providing a greensheet having a width, a length and a thickness, bonding to the greensheet, within the greensheet width and length, a frame adapted to constrain movement of the greensheet within the frame, processing the greensheet and bonded frame, and removing the frame from the processed greensheet. The processing of the greensheet and bonded frame may include punching vias in the greensheet, filling the vias in the greensheet with conductive material, patterning the greensheet by applying conductive paste to the vias and greensheet surface, stacking the patterned greensheet and bonded frame with at least one other patterned greensheet and bonded frame, and laminating the greensheets. The frame is preferably removed from the processed greensheet after laminating the greensheets, and before the laminated greensheets are subsequently sintered. The bonding of the frame to the greensheet may be by lamination or by an adhesive, or by other means. Preferably, the frame has a thickness less than the greensheet thickness. The frame preferably has a plurality of members subdividing the greensheet into a plurality of areas, with each area being completely surrounded by frame members. The frame may be applied to one side of the greensheet, and pressed into the greensheet side such that the frame and greensheet side are substantially coplanar.

The present invention relates generally to a new ceramic structure and process thereof. Basically, the present invention relates to a structure and method for forming laminated structures and more particularly to a structure and method for fabricating multi-layer ceramic products using very thin green sheets and/or green sheets with very dense electrically conductive patterns on top of a stronger support sheet. The structure and method of the present invention enables the screening, stacking and handling of very thin green sheets and/or green sheets with very dense metallized patterns in the manufacture of multi-layer ceramic packages. The thin green sheets were tacked/bonded to thicker and stronger support sheets to form a sub-structure which had excellent stability in screening and enabled further processing. The sheets are anchored or pinned in such a way as to allow the processing of the green sheet with the subsequent easy removal of the support sheet.

The present invention relates generally to a new apparatus and method for forming cavities in semiconductor substrates without the necessity of using an insert. More particularly, the invention encompasses an apparatus and a method for fabricating cavities in semiconductor substrates wherein a coated membrane sheet is placed over the cavity prior to lamination and caused to conform to the contour of the cavity, thus preventing collapse of, or damage to, the cavity shelves during the lamination process. After the lamination process, the coated membrane is conveniently removed without causing damage to the cavity shelves or paste pull-outs.
