Thick Film Ni-Ferrite Inductors

Reliability Evaluation Procedure of Thick Film Inductors Manufactured by Various Techniques

The paper deals with reliability evaluation procedure of thick film inductors manufactured by various techniques. Thick film inductors belong to the specific electronic passive components, which properties are known as a component „tailored“according to the application, structure and construction. Evaluation methodology principle of thick film inductors issues from entities of standardized reli...

Preparation of YBa2Cu3O7−δ superconducting thick film on Ni−W tapes via electrophoretic deposition

The preparation of La0.4Sr0.6TiO3 (LSTO) buffer layer and YBa2Cu3O7−δ (YBCO) superconducting thick film by a low cost technology was studied. The crystal orientation of LSTO and YBCO films was detected by X-ray diffraction, the conductivity of LSTO film and superconductivity of YBCO coating were investigated by standard four-probe method. Excellent in-plane alignment, smooth and dense LSTO buff...

Si Interposers with 15-μm-thick Spiral Inductors and SrTiO3 Thin Film Capacitors for Novel 3D Stacked Buck Converters

We have developed a Si interposer with multilayer 15-μm-thick Cu wiring and SrTiO3 (STO) thin film capacitors to help create novel 3D stacked buck converters, which consist of a CMOS LSI that includes active components and a Si interposer with an LC output filter. A spiral inductor made using 15-μm-thick Cu wiring was stacked over an STO thin film capacitor in the Si interposer without any dete...

Thick-film Piezoceramic Micro-generators

A sensor node is generally small in physical size (typically a few cm or smaller) and consist of a sensor, a transceiver, and supporting electronics. They are connected as a wireless network and are sometimes isolated and embedded in structures, which are not easily accessible. The lifespan of the sensor node is critically dependent upon the power source it contains. Instead of using a limited ...
