Description
Summary:This study investigates the ceramic to ceramic bonding, using composite glass frit as the binding layer that is able to tolerate a high temperature environment for ruggedized microelectronic applications. Shear strength measurements were carried out at both room and high temperature (i.e. 250 °C) to evaluate room and high temperature performance of the joints. The glass joints in both the Al2O3/glass/Al2O3 and AlN/glass/AlN systems maintained their integrity even when shear-tested at 250 °C. The results of the mechanical and microstructural characterizations demonstrate that Bi-based two phase glass frit bonding is an effective ceramic bonding method for harsh-environment electronic packaging.
