Abstract
Abstract Thermally crystallizable glasses are disclosed of the system: RO - Nb2O5 - GeO2 wherein RO is a BaO or SrO. Also disclosed are thermally crystallizable glasses of the system PbO - Nb2O5 - GeO2. Glass-ceramics made from these glass systems have high dielectric constants and low dissipation factors or loss tangents, which glasses and glass-ceramics are suitable for use as capacitors and dielectrics, and particularly for thick-film dielectric pastes utilized in the manufacture of micro-electronic printed circuits. By varying the heat treatment schedule for crystallization of the glass to a glass-ceramic, a specific high dielectric constant coming within a prescribed range can be imparted to the finished glass-ceramic.
