Abstract

This paper builds on the work that has gone before and draws attention and emphasis to interfacial issues, new materials, and new device concepts. In regard to material interfaces, we demonstrate the importance of understanding local thermochemical processes as well as electrode-ceramic interdiffusion within multilayer capacitors and piezoelectrics. We also consider going beyond the traditional embedded capacitor components in high frequency LTCC and point out new opportunities with metamaterials. We introduce new dielectric materials that have intermediate permittivities and low loss characteristics, can be coined with A1 electrodes, and may lay the foundations for an ultra low temperature cofired ceramics (550°C). Finally, we also embrace the concept of alternative applications for LTCC and demonstrate the use of dielectrophoretic forces to control colloidal particle flow in microchannels.
