  • Patent number: 7105070
    Abstract: A method for producing a ceramic substrate which employs a cofiring process using restraint sheets in which a second ceramic green sheet 7 is laminated on a green ceramic substrate 30 so as to cover surface conductors 32 of the green ceramic substrate 30, the second ceramic green sheet 7 subsequently being integrated with the green ceramic substrate 30. Restraint sheets 9, which are not sintered at a sintering temperature at which the green ceramic substrate 30 is sintered, are laminated on corresponding opposite sides of the green ceramic substrate 30 so as to restrain the green ceramic substrate 30 together with the second ceramic green sheet 7. The second ceramic green sheet 7 and the green ceramic substrate 30 are fired at a temperature at which the second ceramic green sheet 7 and the green ceramic substrate 30 are integrally sintered, whereas the restraint sheets 9 are not sintered, to thereby yield a ceramic substrate 40.

  • Patent number: 6876091
    Abstract: The present invention provides a wiring board in which electronic components are embedded by means of an embedding resin which attains a high mounting density of the electronic components in the wiring board, which exhibits excellent electrical properties such as insulating property, which prevents random reflection of light, and which reduces non-uniformity in color of the resin during curing thereof. The present invention includes a wiring board in which electronic components are embedded by use of an embedding resin having a dielectric constant of less than or equal to about 5 and tan ? of less than or equal to about 0.08. The embedding resin preferably contains carbon black in an amount of less than or equal to about 1.4 mass %. Moreover, the embedding resin preferably contains at least a thermosetting resin and at least one inorganic filler.

  • Publication number: 20040226647
    Abstract: A method for producing a multi-layer ceramic capacitor 10 in which reliability of electrical contact between a via electrode 28 and an internal electrode layer 24 (24a or 24b) provided between ceramic layers 22 is enhanced. A laminated sheet 100 including ceramic layers 22 and internal electrode layers 24, the layers 22 and 24 being alternately laminated and combined together, is formed, through-holes 26 are formed in the laminated sheet 100 by means of laser irradiation, and an electrically conductive material is charged into the through-holes 26 using charging container 110, to thereby form via electrodes 28. The electrically conductive material is charged, under application of pressure, into each of the through-holes 26 via an opening of the through-hole 26.
