As packages grow larger and more power dense, traditional materials face mechanical and electrical limits. That is why glass and other advanced substrate approaches are drawing more attention.",[12,19,20],{},"The opportunity is higher signal integrity, better dimensional stability, and new ways to route dense interconnects.
