Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
60 words
A ceramic circuit board comprising: a ceramic substrate including an aluminum nitride sintered body having a surface and a coating layer formed on the surface of said sintered body, said coating layer consisting essentially of aluminum phosphate and having a surface roughness of not more than 1 μm; and a conductive pattern formed on a surface of said coating layer.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
60 words
A ceramic circuit board comprising: a ceramic substrate including an aluminum nitride sintered body having a surface and a coating layer formed on the surface of said sintered body, said coating layer consisting essentially of aluminum phosphate and having a surface roughness of not more than 1 μm; and a conductive pattern formed on a surface of said coating layer.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
40 words
The circuit board according to claim 1, wherein said conductive pattern is formed by stacking a plurality of conductive thin films on the surface of said coating layer to form a multilayered conductive film and patterning said multilayered conductive film.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
57 words
The circuit board according to claim 2, wherein said multilayered conductive film has a first layer consisting of at least one metal selected from the group consisting of Ti, Cr, Mo, and W and a second layer consisting of one metal selected from the group consisting of Ni and Cu, and a third layer consisting of Au.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
