  • Patent number: 5700724
    Abstract: A metal ring frame, having co-fired ceramic inserts, is hermetically sealed to a copper/molybdenum base using a brazing alloy having a melting temperature which is approximately the cross-over temperature for the TCE curves of the base and ring frame. Preferably the base contains at least 20% copper by weight. The brazing alloy is a silver/copper alloy such as 56% Ag, 22% Cu, 17% Zn and 5% Sn, or one with a higher brazing temperature such as 78/22 Ag/Cu, and is used for brazing both the inserts into the frame and the frame onto the base.
