Abstract

Abstract Disclosed is a method of forming high dielectric constant coatings on substrates. The method comprises applying a coating of hydrogen silsesquioxane resin and a high dielectric constant filler onto a substrate and heating the coated substrate at a temperature sufficient to convert the hydrogen silsesquioxane resin to a silica containing ceramic matrix containing the filler.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 19
Claim 1
Independent Claim 74 words
A method of forming a coating with a dielectric constant of at least 8 on a substrate comprising: applying a coating composition comprising hydrogen silsesquioxane resin and about 5 to about 90 weight percent of a filler having a dielectric constant of at least 8 onto a substrate; and heating the coated substrate at a temperature sufficient to convert the coating composition into a ceramic coating having a dielectric constant of at least 8.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 74 words
A method of forming a coating with a dielectric constant of at least 8 on a substrate comprising: applying a coating composition comprising hydrogen silsesquioxane resin and about 5 to about 90 weight percent of a filler having a dielectric constant of at least 8 onto a substrate; and heating the coated substrate at a temperature sufficient to convert the coating composition into a ceramic coating having a dielectric constant of at least 8.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 41 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the coating composition is applied to the substrate by a process which comprises coating the substrate with a liquid mixture comprising a solvent, the hydrogen silsesquioxane resin and the filler and then evaporating the solvent.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 32 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the coated substrate is heated at a temperature in the range of between about 50° C. and about 800° C. for less than about 3 hours.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 31 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the hydrogen silsesquioxane resin is fractionated such that at least 75% of the polymeric species have a molecular weight between about 1200 and about 100,000.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 76 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the coating composition also contains modifying ceramic oxide precursors comprising a compound containing an element selected from the group consisting of titanium, zirconium, aluminum, tantalum, vanadium, niobium, boron and phosphorous wherein the compound contains at least one hydrolyzable substituent selected from the group consisting of alkoxy or acyloxy and the compound is present in an amount such that the coating contains 0.1 to 30 percent by weight modifying ceramic oxide.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 40 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the coating composition also contains a platinum, rhodium or copper catalyst in an amount of between about 5 and about 500 ppm platinum, rhodium or copper based on the weight of hydrogen silsesquioxane resin.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 20 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the coating composition also contains a material which modifies the surface of the filler.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 14 words
