Abstract
Silver flake and lead borate glass frit are suspended in a liquid organic vehicle of resin and solvent. The silver flakes are present in two different size ranges. The plate is applied between the silicon die and the substrate and is oven fired to provide a bond that accommodates the different coefficients of thermal expansion of the silicon and ceramic substrate. The smaller silver particles improve the sintering of the silver and glass and thereby increase the bond strength while the larger silver particles minimize undersirable shrinkage and cracking of the resultant bond. Silver oxide particles or a special solvent mixture are also used in the paste.
