Description

Bohan Zhang, Lang Chen, Qi Wang, and Wei Wang present, in 2026, a glass-based packaging method for high-frequency radio microsystems. Next-generation networks demand low signal loss at millimetre-wave frequencies, which monolithic chips struggle to deliver.

Glass interposers offer low dielectric loss, flatness, and adjustable thermal expansion, suiting them to Ka-band systems. The team used laser-induced deep etching to carve precise cavities with clean vertical walls in glass, then embedded dies by a fan-out process for dense, low-noise integration. Radio frequency engineers gain a manufacturing route that tackles glass machining, historically the weak point of glass packaging, for high-performance communication hardware.
