Recently, there has been growing interest in low loss and low dielectric constant material for LTCC application, as the frequency range for electronic devices increases. This study was designed to evaluate the effect of cordierite filler for low dielectric constant LTCC material. From the previous experiments, two glass compositions of B-Si-Al-Zn-Ba-Ca-O and B-Si-Al-Sr-Ca-O system, were chosen. Each powder of two glass compositions was sintered respectively with commercial cordierite powder in temperature range from $800^{\circ}C\;to\;900^{\circ}C$. Crystalline cordierite and glass peaks were affected only with two factors of composition and sintering temperature among various factors. With the optimized condition of two cordierite/glass compositions, obtained dielectric constant was below 5.5 and quality factor was above 1,000. Closed pore of sintered body was controled by sintering temperature and sintering time. When cordierite/glass composite with ratio of 5.5:4.5 was sintered at $900^{\circ}C$, densification was sufficient with good dielectric characteristics of ${\epsilon}_r<5.1,\;Q{\ge}1,000$. Residual fine closed pores could be reduced with control of sintering temperature and time. 3 point bending strength and chemical durability were evaluated to obtain feasibility for substrate material.

In PDP industry, the dielectrics and barrier ribs have been required with low dielectric constant, low melting point and Pb-free composition due to the low power consumption, low signal delay time and the environment restriction. We were studied with $B_2O_3-Al_2O_3$-SrO glass systems about optical, thermal and dielectric properties. The glass forming region of the $B_2O_3-Al_2O_3$-SrO glass systems was narrow due to the amount of the glass former $(B_2O_3)$. The glass transition temperature (Tg) of the glasses was at $550{\sim}590^{\circ}C$. The glasses have 6~8 for the dielectric constant. Furthermore, the transmittance of the glasses was over 80% on the range of the visible ray. From the results, the glasses of the $B_2O_3-Al_2O_3$-SrO glass systems should enable to be a good candidate of the PDP devices for information display with low dielectric constant. The aim of this study is to give a fundamental result of new glass system for low dielectric constant in the information display.

The crystalline and dielectric properties on Al$_2$O$_3$ filled glass frit (CaO-Al$_2$O$_3$-SiO$_2$-MgO-B$_2$O$_3$) with admixtures of TiO$_2$ have been investigated. The dielectric constant value of 7.5 ∼ 7.8, qualify factor value of 700 were obtained for glass frit : Al$_2$O$_3$(50 : 50 wt%) ceramics. Addition of TiO$_2$ less than 5 wt% slightly increased the dielectric constant from 7.8 to 8.8 due to higher dielectric constant of TiO$_2$. With increasing the amount of TiO$_2$ up to 5 wt%, the temperature coefficient of dielectric properties was improved. When the TiO$_2$ 5 wt% were added, dielectric properties were dielectric constant 8.8, quality factor 840 and the temperature coefficient of dielectric 45 ppm/$^{\circ}C$ at a sintering temperature 920$^{\circ}C$.

E-glass (electrical glass) fiber is the widely used as a reinforced composite material of PCBs (printed circuit boards). However, E-glass fiber is not stable because it has a dielectric constant of 6~7. On the other hand, D-glass (dielectric glass) fiber has a low dielectric constant of 3~4.5. Thus, it is adaptable for use as a reinforcing material of PCBs. In this study, we fabricated D-glass compositions with low dielectric constant, and measured the electrical and optical properties. In the glass composition, the boron content was changed from 9 to 31 wt%. To confirm the dependence of the dielectric constant on melting properties, D-glass with 22 wt% boron was melted at $1550^{\circ}C$ and $1650^{\circ}C$ for 2hrs. The glass melted at $1650^{\circ}C$ had a lower dielectric constant than the glass melted at $1550^{\circ}C$. Therefore, the D-glass with boron of 9~31 wt% was fabricated by melting at $1650^{\circ}C$ for 2hrs, and transparent clear glass was obtained. We identified the non-crystalline nature of the glass using an XRD (x-ray diffractometer) graph. The visible light transmittance values depending on the boron contents were measured and found to be 88.6 % ~ 82.5 %. Finally, the dielectric constant of the D-glass with 31 wt% boron was found to have decreased from 4.18 to 3.93.

The crystalline and dielectric properties on $Al_2O_3$ filled glass frit ($CaO-Al_2O_3-SiO_2-MgO-B_2O_3$) with admixtures of $TiO_2$ have been investigated. The dielectric constant value of $7.5{\sim}7.8$, quality factor value of 700 were obtained for glass frit : $Al_2O_3$ (50 : 50 wt%) ceramics. As the amount of $TiO_2$ increased, temperature coefficient of dielectric constant were decreased.

As a low K material for high frequency high integration modules, glass/ceramic composites were investigated. Glass composition were selected from $SiO_2-B_2O_3-Al_2O_3-R_2O$-RO system which having very low dielectric constant and cordierite was used as a ceramic filler. These composites were sintered at temperature range from $850^{\circ}$ to $950^{\circ}$ and XRD, SEM microstructure analysis of sintered bodies were performed for understanding sintering behavior. Any crystallization was not occurred and dense sintered bodies were attained. Dielectric and mechanical properties of these sintered glass/cordierite composites were analysed by network analyzer and UTM. Glass/ceramic composite with 50 wt% cordierite showing a dielectric constant (${\varepsilon}_r$) of 5.4, Q${\times}f_0$ (Q) of 1600 at 1 GHz and maximum bending strength of 163 MPa was attained.

This research was a fundamental study for the low temperature sintering of PZTN by glass phase transient processing. To lower the sintering temperature, the glass phase Processing was used. Also to improve the electrical properties, the transient processing was utilized. After characterization, the various analytic techniques, such as Archimedes method for the measuring densification, x-ray diffraction patterns for the quantitative analysis of crystalline phases were utilized. Also the dielectric constant, dissipation factor, and piezoelectric coefficients were measured to evaluate the PZTN sintered at the $950^{\circ}C$ and $1050^{\circ}C$. This was confirmed that the sintering temperature of PZTN was reduced by $950^{\circ}C$ and the electrical properties were improved by the transition processing. Therefore, the glass phase transient processing can be applicable to low the sintering temperature with the dielectric and piezoelectric properties.

The effects of CeO2 on the properties of cordierite-based glass-ceramics and its applicability to low firing temperature substrate were examined. Glass-ceramics were prepared by sintering the glass powder compacts at 900~100$0^{\circ}C$ for 3 h. Density, bending strength, dielectric constant and thermal expansion coefficient of the glass-ceramics were measured as functions of CeO2 contents and sintering temperatures. By adding CeO2, dense glass-ceramics were obtained below 100$0^{\circ}C$. dielectric constant and bending strength were more dependent on the porosity of glass-ceramics containing 5 wt% CeO2, sintered at 100$0^{\circ}C$ for 3 h, were as follows; relative density is 95.3%, bending strength is 178$\pm$11 MPa, dielectric constant is 4.98$\pm$0.20 (at 1 MHz) and thermal expansion coefficient is 33.7$\times$10-7/$^{\circ}C$. Therefore, the glass-ceramics containing 5 wt% CeO2 appeared to be suitable for low firing temperature substrate of electronic devices.

Sintering and dielectric characteristics of substrates were estimated by mixing rate of alumina and potashborosilicate glass(PBSG) powders. PBSG powders were used 7761(corning code)and alumina powders were used in extra pure rate(99.9%) and had 0.1 ${\mu}$m mean size. After ball milling with organic additives green sheets which were casted by doctor blade machine were sintered at 800$^{\circ}C$ for 1∼3hrs. Microstructure, linear shrinkage and dielectric constant of substrates were surveyed in order to fabricate low-dielectric and low tem-perature sintering substrate.
