Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

When a multilayer ceramic substrate with a cavity is reduced in thickness, a bottom wall portion defining the bottom of the cavity is reduced in thickness, thereby leading to the problem that the bottom wall portion is likely to be broken. A bottom wall portion defining a cavity of a multilayer ceramic substrate has a stack structure formed with a high thermal expansion coefficient layer sandwiched between first and second low thermal expansion coefficient layers. This configuration generates compression stress in the low thermal expansion coefficient layers during a cooling process after firing, thereby allowing the mechanical strength at the bottom wall portion to be improved.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A multilayer ceramic substrate including a cavity, comprising: a peripheral wall portion including a first ceramic layer including a through hole arranged to define the cavity; and a bottom wall portion including a plurality of second ceramic layers not including a through hole; wherein the plurality of second ceramic layers of the bottom wall portion includes at least two types of ceramic layers, the at least two types of ceramic layers including a firs…
