High-K and low loss Bi1.5Zn1.0Nb1.5O 7/polyimide composite films for application in embedded capacitors

Abstract

We report on the role of Bi1.5Zn1.0Nb 1.5O7 (BZN) ceramic fillers in notably reducing the dielectric loss of BZN/polyimide composite films manufactured for application in flexible RF embedded capacitors. The composite films were synthesized using a colloidal process. INAAT (isopropyl tris(N-amino-ethyl aminoethyl)titanate) was used as a coupling agent for homogeneous dispersion of BZN particles into a polyimide matrix. The BZN/polyimide composite films (BZN content at 50 Vol%) exhibited a low dielectric loss of 0.0369 at 12 MHz while retaining a high dielectric constant of 14.75.
