Ultra-Low Temperature Sintering and Dielectric Properties of SiO2-Filled Glass Composites
Ultra low temperature co-fired ceramics system based on zinc borate 3ZnO-2B(2)O(3) (3Z2B) glass matrix and SiO2 filler was investigated with regard to the phase composition, the microstructure and the dielectric properties as functions of the filler content and sintering temperature. The softening temperature of 554 degrees C and the crystallization temperature of around 650 degrees C for the glass were confirmed by Differential Thermal Analysis result. The X-ray diffraction results show that all SiO2-filled samples were made up of SiO2, -Zn(BO2)(2), Zn3B2O6 phases. And there was no chemical reaction between SiO2 and the glass during densification. And then the dielectric constant decreased with the increasing content of SiO2. At the level of 15wt% SiO2 addition, the composites can be densified at a sintering temperature of 650 degrees C for 30min, and showed the optimal dielectric properties at 1MHz with the dielectric constant of 6.1 and the dielectric loss of 1.3x10(-3), which demonstrates a good potential for use in LTCC technology.
