Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a printed circuit board enables a metal residue between wirings to be removed inexpensively without side etching of a copper layer while having sufficient insulation reliability for micro wiring working. The method includes forming a base metal layer directly at least on one face of an insulator film without an adhesive, and a copper coat layer formed on the base metal layer to form adhesiveless copper clad laminates, then forming a pattern on the adhesiveless copper clad laminates by an etching method. The etching method includes a process of etching treatment for the adhesiveless copper clad laminates with an iron (III) chloride solution or a copper (II) chloride solution containing hydrochloric acid and then, a process of treatment with an acid oxidant containing permanganate and acetic acid.
Abstract:
The printed wiring board of the present invention is a printed wiring board produced by selectively etching a base film having a base metal layer and a conductive metal layer, which are formed on an insulating film, through plural etching steps comprising a conductive metal etching step and a base metal etching step to form a wiring pattern and then bringing the base film having the thus formed wiring pattern into contact with a reducing aqueous solution containing a reducing substance, wherein the amount of a residual metal derived from the etching solution on the printed wiring board is not more than 0.05 μg/cm2. According to the present invention, the metal derived from the etching solution is removed by the use of a reducing substance-containing solution. Therefore, the water rinsing step in the production process can be shortened, occurrence of migration attributable to the residual metal can be prevented, and a printed wiring board having high reliability can be efficiently produced.

Abstract:
There is provided a method for producing a reliable metal/ceramic bonding substrate at low costs by forming a desired fillet on the peripheral portion of a metal circuit by a small number of steps. After an active metal containing brazing filler metal 12 is applied on a ceramic substrate 10 to bond a metal member 14 thereto, a resist 16 is applied on a predetermined portion of a surface of the metal member 14 to etch unnecessary portions, and then the resist is removed. Thereafter, unnecessary part of a metal layer 12b, which is formed of a metal other than an active metal of the active metal containing brazing filler metal 12, is etched with a chemical to be removed. Then, unnecessary part of an active metal layer 12a, which is formed of the active metal and a compound thereof, is selectively etched with a chemical, which inhibits the metal member 14 and the metal layer 12b from being etched and which selectively etch the active metal layer 12b, to form a metal circuit on the ceramic substrate 10. This metal circuit is chemically polished to form a fillet on the peripheral portion of the metal circuit.
