Abstract

An electronic component cap for producing a package having a sealed region by being bonded to a base, having a brazing material-fused surface to which a brazing material is fused and a sealing surface corresponding to the sealed region. The brazing material-fused surface has a non-flat work surface formed by plastic working, and a ratio (Sc/Sf) of a surface area (Sc) of the brazing material-fused surface per unit area to a surface area (Sf) of the sealing surface per unit area satisfies 1<Sc/Sf≤1.6. The cross-sectional shape of the work surface may be one of various shapes such as a groove shape, an approximately V shape, and a circular-arc shape. The cap has a good wettability when a brazing material is fused. Also, the brazing material does not wet-spread excessively when the brazing material is melted again for sealing work.

Claims (23)

1. An electronic component cap for producing a package having a sealed region by being bonded to a base, wherein

the cap has a brazing material-fused surface to which a brazing material is fused and a sealing surface corresponding to the sealed region,

the brazing material-fused surface has a non-flat work surface formed by plastic working, and

a ratio (Sc/Sf) of a surface area (Sc) of the brazing material-fused surface per unit area to a surface area (Sf) of the sealing surface per unit area satisfies 1<Sc/Sf≤1.6.

2. The electronic component cap according to claim 1 , wherein a cross-sectional shape of the work surface is a shape having a groove that protrudes from a flat surface.

3. The electronic component cap according to claim 1 , wherein a cross-sectional shape of the work surface is an approximately V shape that descends downwards from both ends toward a center.

4. The electronic component cap according to claim 1 , wherein a cross-sectional shape of the work surface is a circular-arc shape that extends downwards from both ends toward a center.

5. The electronic component cap according to claim 1 , wherein at least one of a protrusion that protrudes upwards and a recess that protrudes downwards is formed as the work surface.

6. The electronic component cap according to claim 1 , wherein an Au-based brazing material is fused to the brazing material-fused surface.

7. The electronic component cap according to claim 1 , which has a flat plate shape, wherein the brazing material-fused surface having a frame shape is set along four sides of the flat plate shape.

8. The electronic component cap according to claim 1 , wherein the cap has a box shape with a cavity formed, and the brazing material-fused surface having a frame shape is set along an end surface of the cap.

9. The electronic component cap according to claim 8 , comprising a cap body that forms the cavity and a flange section formed at an end of the cap body, wherein the brazing material-fused surface having a frame shape is set along an end surface of the flange.

10. The electronic component cap according to claim 2 , wherein an Au-based brazing material is fused to the brazing material-fused surface.

11. The electronic component cap according to claim 3 , wherein an Au-based brazing material is fused to the brazing material-fused surface.

12. The electronic component cap according to claim 4 , wherein an Au-based brazing material is fused to the brazing material-fused surface.

13. The electronic component cap according to claim 5 , wherein an Au-based brazing material is fused to the brazing material-fused surface.

14. The electronic component cap according to claim 2 , which has a flat plate shape, wherein the brazing material-fused surface having a frame shape is set along four sides of the flat plate shape.

15. The electronic component cap according to claim 3 , which has a flat plate shape, wherein the brazing material-fused surface having a frame shape is set along four sides of the flat plate shape.

16. The electronic component cap according to claim 4 , which has a flat plate shape, wherein the brazing material-fused surface having a frame shape is set along four sides of the flat plate shape.

17. The electronic component cap according to claim 5 , which has a flat plate shape, wherein the brazing material-fused surface having a frame shape is set along four sides of the flat plate shape.

18. The electronic component cap according to claim 6 , which has a flat plate shape, wherein the brazing material-fused surface having a frame shape is set along four sides of the flat plate shape.

19. The electronic component cap according to claim 2 , wherein the cap has a box shape with a cavity formed, and the brazing material-fused surface having a frame shape is set along an end surface of the cap.

20. The electronic component cap according to claim 3 , wherein the cap has a box shape with a cavity formed, and the brazing material-fused surface having a frame shape is set along an end surface of the cap.
