Other Applications
As glass emerges as a future candidate for optical connectivity and interposer applications, many groups are also considering the challenge of co-packaging electronic functions in glass.
It should be noted that glass is an electrical insulator and techniques to provide the electrical connections for a glass interposers are receiving a lot of attention. One approach of interest is Laser Induced Chemical Etching, wherein an ultrafast laser processes an area of glass, which is subsequently removed with a wet, alkaline etch and back filled with a metal to provide the electrical connections.
Opsydia is active in this area together with other UK partners and is able to provide solutions for through glass vias (TGVs) with electrical functionality.
