Single-Layer Glass Plate Design for Reliable Electronic Components
Here’s PatSnap Eureka !
Summary
Problems
Electronic components with internal conductors in multi-layer glass bodies face issues such as shape and positional variations, internal stress, and reduced resistance to external forces and heat due to firing processes, which affect their electrical characteristics and reliability.
Innovation solutions
A single-layer glass plate with outer-surface conductors and terminal electrodes disposed above its surface, eliminating the need for internal conductors and reducing the influence of firing, while allowing for precise formation of cavities and crystallization portions to adjust dielectric constants and stray capacitance.

Specific contradictions:
General conflict description:
Principle concept:
If multi-layer glass body with internal conductor is used, then insulation property and physical/chemical stability are improved, but shape and positional variations occur due to firing process
Why choose this principle:
The invention divides the conductor into two separate components: internal conductors embedded in the glass body and external conductors formed on the surface after firing. This segmentation allows the internal conductor to provide structural stability while the external conductor achieves precise positioning, resolving the contradiction between reliability and manufacturing precision.
Principle concept:
If multi-layer glass body with internal conductor is used, then insulation property and physical/chemical stability are improved, but shape and positional variations occur due to firing process
Why choose this principle:
The internal conductor is formed by embedding conductor paste in glass green sheets before firing. This preliminary action creates a stable structural foundation that withstands the firing process, while subsequent external conductor formation achieves precise positioning without being affected by firing-induced variations.

Abstract
An electronic component includes a single-layer glass plate, an outer-surface conductor that is disposed above an outer surface of the single-layer glass plate and that is at least a part of an electrical element, and a terminal electrode that is a terminal of the electrical element. The terminal electrode is disposed above the outer surface of the single-layer glass plate and being electrically connected to the outer-surface conductor.
