The manufacturing of hollow structures has become possible by joining MMCs together. It is possible to flow refrigerants or gases through the internal channels formed by the joining technology. MMCs, characterized by high thermal conductivity and low thermal expansion, experience minimal thermal deformation due to temperature changes, preventing adverse effects on the components they are integrated with. <Applications for Cooling Jackets> Prevention of arcing due to reduced thermal expansion differences with alumina ESC, improved etching rates due to high thermal conductivity and low thermal expansion. <Applications for Wafer Chucks> Stable measurements and expanded test temperature ranges due to high rigidity, high thermal conductivity, and low thermal expansion. 【Features of MMC】 ■ Weight comparable to aluminum, about 1/3 that of iron ■ Rigidity equivalent to that of iron and steel, resistant to bending ■ High thermal conductivity and heat dissipation ■ Minimal thermal shrinkage 【Joining Methods】 ● Brazing: Joining using a filler material with a lower melting point than the base material. ● Diffusion bonding: Joining by closely adhering materials and diffusing the atoms at the bonding interface. *Joining of dissimilar materials is also possible (consultation for joinable materials is available). *There is also a track record of joining multiple sheets.

In the millimeter wave and terahertz wave regions used in Beyond 5G (6G), low-loss substrate characteristics and fine patterning technology are required. In addition to the manufacturing technology of low dielectric loss ceramic substrates that we have cultivated over many years, high-precision patterning technology, and design technology that meets customer requests, we have also become capable of simulation and measurement at high frequencies. As a result, we can provide high-frequency circuit substrates with high reproducibility in simulations. Please feel free to consult us with any requests or questions, such as "I want this kind of passive component." We will solve problems with our technological development capabilities and comprehensive strength that only a substrate manufacturer can provide.

• High frequency/microwave parts

With the expansion of the semiconductor manufacturing equipment market, procurement issues related to ceramics have arisen. In particular, large alumina components have limited suppliers, and extended lead times are impacting equipment development schedules. The ceramic-metal composite material SA701 has slightly lower Young's modulus and bending strength compared to alumina, but it has high fracture toughness and is less prone to cracking, making it easy to handle. Its density is about 3/4 that of alumina, and it can be machined for direct threading, eliminating the need for metal bushings and enabling weight reduction. We encourage you to consider the adoption of metal-ceramic composite materials, which excel in producing larger components compared to alumina. *For more details, please refer to the materials available for download via the PDF button.

The 5th generation mobile communication system (5G) services have started, and its impact on autonomous driving and telemedicine is anticipated. These technologies utilize high frequencies known as microwaves and millimeter waves to transmit large volumes of data at high speeds with low latency. However, conventional multi-layer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs) face the challenge that the stacked internal electrodes become inductive components at high frequencies, leading to degraded performance. The single-layer capacitors (SLC) developed by JFC have a simple structure with electrodes only on the front and back of the dielectric, which helps suppress inductive components and achieve excellent performance even at high frequencies. The next generation of 5G, known as 6G, will operate at even higher frequencies, and the demand for single-layer capacitors is expected to continue to grow in the future, with various applications anticipated.

This product was originally used by users who bonded two circuit boards together (after joining with solder, paste, and adhesive), and it was created with the concept of providing it as a "single integrated component." By making it a single component, (1) the user's effort and costs for joining are reduced, and (2) thermal conduction loss from joining materials has been eliminated. Furthermore, it has become possible to form thin-film integrated circuits on stepped ceramic substrates. [Application Example] The step difference between the upper and lower circuit boards is adjusted to match the thickness of the laser element, which is mounted on the lower board. This allows the top surface of the laser element and the upper circuit board to be at the same height, enabling wire bonding at the shortest distance.
