                Appeal 2007-1940                                                                               
                Application 10/362,942                                                                         
                ¶ 0015).  Suzuki further discloses the glass component can contain lead                        
                oxide PbO and bismuth oxide Bi2O3 (id. ¶ 0020).  The oxide containing Ti of                    
                the dielectric material component can be such systems as BaO·nTiO2 and                         
                BaO·4TiO2·Ln2O3 (id. ¶ 0026).  Suzuki discloses the taught dielectric                          
                composition can be baked at a temperature of less than 1,000°C (id. ¶ 0011).                   
                      Suzuki also discloses a multilayer wiring substrate formed from glass                    
                and ceramic substrate layers and from dielectric layers, the latter layers                     
                prepared from the described dielectric composition (id., e.g., ¶¶ 0028-0034                    
                and Fig. 1).  The substrate layer is formed from an aluminum oxide skeleton                    
                component and from a glass component, wherein the glass component can                          
                be an alkali rare earth silicon system glass in which “SrO is essential, and it                
                is preferable that it contains one or more types of CaO and MgO” (id.                          
                ¶ 0030).                                                                                       
                      Suzuki discloses in Table 1, dielectric compositions 1-10 wherein the                    
                glass components of Examples 1 through 10 satisfy the requirements for the                     
                ingredients of the glass material component of claim 21; the glass                             
                component of Examples 2, 9, and 10 contain niobium oxide Nb2O5 and thus,                       
                additionally satisfy the requirements for the ingredients of the glass material                
                of claim 23.  The glass ingredients of the Examples include at least SiO2,                     
                B2O3, Al2O3, and La2O3, and 1 or more of ZrO2, TiO2, Nb2O5, Pr6O11, Nd2O3.                     
                The amount of SiO2 ranges from 24-40 mol%.  The ceramic component of                           
                the Examples satisfies the requirements for the specified ingredients of the                   
                oxide ceramic component of claims 21 and 23.  Examples 11 and 12 are                           
                comparative examples, and the glass component of the latter
