  • Publication number: 20070195553
    Abstract: A reflector in a backlight module comprises a reflection layer and an electrical conduction layer. The conducting is installed on one side of a reflection layer, and is connected to the ground of the system. Thereby, when the reflector is applied to an edge-type or a direct-type backlight module, by grounding the electrical conduction layer, normal operations of devices in the backlight module will not be affected by electromagnetic interference (EMI) or electrostatic discharge (ESD).

  • Publication number: 20070097597
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a polymer-ceramic dielectric composition. The dielectric composition comprises a polymer and a ceramic dispersed in the polymer wherein the ceramic is composed of a material having a perovskite structure represented by ABO3 and a metal oxide dopant and has an electrically charged surface. According to the dielectric composition, the surface of the ceramic is electrically charged to induce space-charge polarization (or interfacial polarization) at the polymer/ceramic interface, resulting in an increase in dielectric constant. Since the dielectric composition has a high dielectric constant particularly in a low-frequency range, it can be suitably used to produce decoupling capacitors. Further disclosed are a capacitor and a printed circuit board that use the dielectric composition.

  • Publication number: 20070081297
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a thin film capacitor includes steps of: performing recrystallization heat treatment on a metal foil; forming a dielectric layer on a top surface of the recrystallized metal foil; heat treating the metal foil and the dielectric layer; and forming an upper electrode on a top surface of the heat-treated dielectric layer. The recrystallization heat treatment prevents the oxidation of a metal foil, by which a dielectric layer can be heat treated at a high temperature, thereby improving electric properties of a thin film capacitor and the reliability of a product.

  • Publication number: 20070081931
    Abstract: A cerium oxide powder for one-component CMP slurry, which has a specific surface area of 5 m2/g or more, and a ratio of volume fraction of pores with a diameter of 3 nm or more to that of pores with a diameter less than 3 nm of 8:2˜2:8. A method for preparing the same, a one-component CMP slurry comprising the same as an abrasive material, and a method of shallow trench isolation using the one-component CMP slurry are also disclosed. The CMP slurry causes no precipitation of the cerium oxide powder even if it is provided as a one-component CMP slurry, because the CMP slurry uses, as an abrasive material, cerium oxide powder that is obtained via a low-temperature calcination step, optionally a pulverization step, and a high-temperature calcination step and has a high pore fraction and low strength.

  • Publication number: 20070027246
    Abstract: Disclosed is a composition for forming a dielectric, which is applied to an embedded capacitor with a high dielectric constant, a capacitor produced using the composition, and a PCB provided with the capacitor. The composition includes 40 to 99 vol % of thermoplastic or thermosetting resin, and 1 to 60 vol % of semiconductive filler. Alternatively, the composition includes 40 to 95 vol % of thermoplastic or thermosetting resin, and 5 to 60 vol % of semiconductive ferroelectric substance. Furthermore, the present invention provides the capacitor, produced using the composition, and the PCB provided with the capacitor. Therefore, the dielectric, which is produced using the composition including the semiconductive filler or semiconductive ferroelectric substance, is advantageous in that the dielectric constant is high and a dielectric loss is low. The dielectric is usefully applied to produce an embedded capacitor with the high dielectric constant and the PCB provided with the embedded capacitor.
