A package comprising a chip mounting base and a cap to be fitted on said base, in which said base, comprising: a metal substrate; an electrically insulating ceramic layer formed on said metal substrate; a patterned metal layer formed on said ceramic layer in a selected area thereof; a first mixed layer formed in an area near the interface between said metal substrate and said ceramic layer; and a second mixed layer formed in an area near the interface between said ceramic layer and said metal layer, each of said mixed layers being composed of the materials of the layers situated on both sides thereof, and in which said cap, comprising: a metal substrate; an electrically insulating ceramic layer formed in at least the marginal portion of the side of said metal substrate which faces said chip mounting base; and a mixed layer that is formed in an area near the interface between said metal substrate and said ceramic layer, said mixed layer being composed of the materials of the layers situated on both sides thereof.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
236 words
A process for producing a package comprising a chip mounting base and a cap to be fitted on said base, comprising the steps of: forming an electrically insulating ceramic layer on a metal substrate of said chip mounting base and a mixed layer in an area near the interface between said metal substrate and said ceramic layer by depositing a vaporized material and impinging an accelerated ion beam on said metal substrate in vacuum, said mixed layer being composed of the materials of the layers situated on both sides thereof; forming a metal layer on said ceramic layer and a mixed layer in an area near the interface between said ceramic layer and said metal layer, by depositing a metal vapor and impinging an accelerated ionized inert gas on said ceramic layer formed in the preceeding step, said mixed layer being composed of the materials of the layers situated on both sides thereof; patterning said metal layer; and forming an electrically insulating ceramic layer on a metal substrate of said cap in at least the marginal portion thereof and a mixed layer in an area near the interface between said metal substrate and said ceramic layer, by depositing a vaporized material and impinging an accelerated ion beam on said metal substrate in vacuum in at least the marginal portion thereof, said mixed layer being composed of the materials of the layers situated on both sides thereof.
