Patent ID: 7504150

Claim:
A laser light activatable polymer composite comprising: A. a polymer selected from the group consisting of epoxy resins, bismaleimide triazines, fluoropolymers, liquid crystal polymers, and combinations thereof present in an amount from 12 to 87 weight-percent of the total weight of the polymer composite; B. a spinel crystal filler being a member of the group consisting of AB 2 O 4 , BABO 4 and combinations thereof, where A is a metal cation having a valence of 2 selected from the group consisting of manganese, nickel, copper, iron and combinations of two or more of these, and where B is a metal cation having a valence of 3 selected from the group consisting of manganese, iron, chromium, and combinations of two or more of these, the spinel crystal filler being present in an amount from 3 to 25 weight-percent of the total weight of the polymer composite; C. a capacitor filler present in an amount from 10 to 85 weight-percent of the total weight of the composite material, wherein the capacitor filler is a member of the group consisting of: i. a ferroelectric filler selected from the group consisting of lead zirconate titanate, barium titanate, calcium, bismuth, iron, lanthanum, strontium, lead meta-niobate, lead metatantalate, strontium barium titanate, sodium barium niobate, potassium barium niobate, and rubidium barium niobate, ii. a paraelectric filler selected from the group consisting of TiO 2 , Ta 2 O 5 , HfO 2 , Nb 2 O 5 , Al 2 O 3 , and steatite, and iii. a combination of said ferroelectric filler and said paraelectric filler; wherein the polymer composite material has a thickness ranging from 1 to 200 microns; and wherein the polymer composite material has a dielectric constant between and including 4 and 60.
