Abstract
Abstract In a package comprising a chip mounting base and a cap to be fitted on the base, the base comprises a metal substrate, an electrically insulating ceramic layer formed on the metal substrate, a patterned metal layer formed on the ceramic layer in a selected area thereof, a first mixed layer formed in an area near the interface between the metal substrate and the ceramic layer, and a second mixed layer formed in an area near the interface between the ceramic layer and the metal layer, and the cap comprises a metal substrate, an electrically insulating ceramic layer formed in at least the marginal portion of the side of the metal substrate which faces the base, and a mixed layer that is formed in an area near the interface between the metal substrate and the ceramic layer.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim
154 words
A process of providing interconnections of metal layers in the production of a laminated substrate comprising thin metal layers and electrically insulating thin ceramic layers, comprising: a first step of evaporating a metal on a first surface of at least one of said thin ceramic layers while in a vacuum with a mask being disposed on said surface of said ceramic layer; a second step of forming an alloyed area in said ceramic layer by heating said evaporated metal to diffuse said metal into and through said thin ceramic layer to reach a second surface of said ceramic layer; and a third step of forming one of said thin metal layers on said first surface of said ceramic layer, so as to create an electrical connection between said one of said thin metal layers and another of said thin metal layers disposed on said second surface of said one of said thin ceramic layers.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
154 words
A process of providing interconnections of metal layers in the production of a laminated substrate comprising thin metal layers and electrically insulating thin ceramic layers, comprising: a first step of evaporating a metal on a first surface of at least one of said thin ceramic layers while in a vacuum with a mask being disposed on said surface of said ceramic layer; a second step of forming an alloyed area in said ceramic layer by heating said evaporated metal to diffuse said metal into and through said thin ceramic layer to reach a second surface of said ceramic layer; and a third step of forming one of said thin metal layers on said first surface of said ceramic layer, so as to create an electrical connection between said one of said thin metal layers and another of said thin metal layers disposed on said second surface of said one of said thin ceramic layers.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
48 words
The process of claim 1, wherein prior to said step of evaporating said metal, a beam of ionized inert gas is applied through said mask to a portion of said first surface of said one of said thin ceramic layers on which said metal is to be evaporated.
