Abstract

A high-performance electrically conductive silver paste with no solid particles before drying and/or sintering is developed, in which silver-containing precursor is employed as conductive functional phase. Thermogravimetry analysis, volume electrical resistivity tests and sintering experiments show that the paste with about 14 wt.% silver pristine content is able to achieve the volume electrical resistivity of (2–3) ×10−5 Ω cm after it is sintered at 220°C. A micro-pen direct-writing process indicates that it is very suitable for the fabrication of high-resolution (25 μm) and high-integration devices and apparatus.
