  • Publication number: 20230395444
    Abstract: Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing mixed dielectric materials for improving signal integrity of integrated electronics packages or semiconductor packages. In various embodiments, a substrate for a semiconductor device includes: a first layer made of a first material; a second layer made of a second material; and a third layer disposed between the first and second layers, and that is made of a third material different from the first and second materials. In some cases, the first, second, and third layers each contains a plurality of gas-filled regions (e.g., but not limited to, an aerogel core of the third layer and/or polymer resin matrix embedded with hollow silica spheres or aerogel spheres of the first and second layers, or the like). Coaxial ground shields around signal lines in the substrate can be used to improve signal integrity. High dielectric constant lossy lines between signal lines can reduce crosstalk.
