Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present disclosure relates to dielectric substrates and methods of forming the same. In particular, the present disclosure relates to copper clad laminates. The present invention relates to a dielectric substrate for use in a plate structure and a method for forming the same. [Background technology]
[0002] Copper-clad laminate (CCL) is a laminate consisting of two layers of conductive copper foil or Subsequent work has demonstrated that such CCLs can be printed on a Used to form a PCB. When used, the conductive copper foil is selectively etched to form circuits with through holes. Through holes are drilled between layers and metallized, i.e. plated, to form the interconnects within a multilayer PCB. Therefore, CCL must exhibit excellent thermomechanical stability. PCBs also may be subject to excessively high temperatures during manufacturing operations, e.g., soldering, as well as during use. As a result, PCBs can withstand temperatures exceeding 200°C continuously without deformation. They must function at temperatures ranging from 100 to 200°C, withstanding extreme temperature fluctuations while resisting moisture absorption. The dielectric layer of the CCL acts as a spacer between the conductive layers and provides a conductive barrier. By isolating the dielectric, electrical signal loss and crosstalk can be minimized. The lower the dielectric constant (permittivity) of a layer, the faster an electrical signal will travel through the layer. The low loss factor, which depends on temperature and frequency, as well as the polarizability of the material, is a key advantage for high frequency applications. Accordingly, improvements that can be used in PCB and other high frequency applications are being made. Improved dielectric materials and layers are desired.
