I'm sure you know that Kyocera was originally a ceramics company. Japan is volcanic islands and they are clay masters according to your National Geographic magazines with their "Japanese Living Treasures"
My dad is a potter by hobby. Other day I bounced a 133mhz Intel chip off his kitchen table and he could tell this was a ceramic. A silicon ceramic to be sure.
