Abstract:
1. An apparatus comprising: a substrate, wherein the substrate comprises a ceramic material; a plurality of conductive traces formed on the substrate, the plurality of conductive traces comprising a co-deposited conductive material doped with 1-5% by volume of an aluminum material that is annealed to form a protective layer on selective portions of a surface of the conductive traces, the protective layer having a thickness of less than approximately 500 nm to inhibit oxidation; and a set of first metal contact pads in contact with the surface of the plurality of conductive traces and in electrical communication with the plurality of conductive traces, wherein the substrate, the plurality of conductive traces and the set of first metal contact pads define an electronic ceramic circuit board configured to operate at a temperature between 200 and 1130 degrees Celsius.
