Abstract :
The authors describe the unique challenges and solutions in cofiring glass-ceramic and copper to form a dense package with desired mechanical and electrical properties. A patented steam sintering process has been developed that is based on sound theoretical background. This process has allowed packaging of a low-dielectric-constant ceramic with a high-conductivity copper conductor with desired electrical and mechanical properties
