Abstract

A substrate includes an auxiliary wiring pattern formed on a first main surface of a glass substrate in a grid-like pattern arranged horizontally and vertically, and a translucent glass layer formed on a surface of the glass substrate to cover the first main surface and the auxiliary wiring pattern. Through-holes exposing the auxiliary wiring pattern are formed in a portion of the translucent glass layer formed on the auxiliary wiring pattern, in each side of each grid of the grid-like pattern at uniform intervals. The substrate may be used in an electronic device having a long-life and a high reliability in which exfoliation or deterioration of a wiring is inhibited by embedding the wiring therein while maintaining smoothness of the surface.

Claims (15)

1. A substrate for an electronic device in which an electrode wiring is formed on a first main surface side of a glass substrate, the substrate comprising:

an auxiliary wiring pattern formed on the first main surface of the glass substrate in a grid-like pattern arranged horizontally and vertically; and

a translucent glass layer formed on a surface of the glass substrate to cover the first main surface and the auxiliary wiring pattern,

wherein, in a portion of the translucent glass layer formed on the auxiliary wiring pattern, through-holes exposing the auxiliary wiring pattern are formed in each side of each grid of the grid-like pattern at uniform intervals.

2. The substrate for an electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein a surface roughness Ra of a surface of the translucent glass layer is 30 nm or less.

3. The substrate for an electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the auxiliary wiring pattern formed on the first main surface of the glass substrate is formed of a conductor layer with a line width of 0.05 to 2 mm and a film thickness of 0.5 to 30 um.

4. The substrate for an electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the auxiliary wiring pattern comprises a silver conductor.

5. A process for producing a substrate of claim 1 .

6. An electronic device comprising:

a substrate for an electronic device, comprising:

a glass substrate;

an auxiliary wiring pattern formed on a first main surface of the glass substrate in a grid-like pattern arranged horizontally and vertically; and

a translucent glass layer formed to cover the first main surface as well as the auxiliary wiring pattern except for a portion comprising through-holes, the through-holes formed in each side of each grid of the grid-like pattern at uniform intervals; and

a functional element formed on the translucent glass layer,

wherein the functional element is conductively connected to the auxiliary wiring pattern through the through-holes formed in a portion of the translucent glass layer.
