In a reverse pulse plating of a substrate (110), the electrolytic solution is agitated with a greater power on forward pulses (210) than on reverse pulses (220). An ultrasound agitation source (170) can be positioned at the bottom of the substrate (110) if the anode (134) is at the top. The ultrasound source may contact the substrate's bottom. Other features are also provided.

The present invention relates to a system single-metal plating, a system for binary-metal plating, and a system for solder-bump plating. The solder-bump plating system comprises a single-metal plating system for plating a preconditioned substrate to form a single-metal plated substrate; and a binary-metal plating system for plating the single-metal plated substrate. In a preferred implementation, the solder-bump plating system of the present invention is configured to single-metal plate a preconditioned substrate using a first plating solution to provide a single-plated substrate; to single-metal plate the single-plated substrate using a second plating solution to provide a double-plated substrate; and to binary-metal plate the double-plated substrate using a third plating solution to provide a solder-bump plated substrate. A novel apparatus for use in plating a substrate comprises an electrically conductive holder comprising a handle portion having at least one electrical contact and a holder portion having at least one flexible electrical contact.

The present invention overcomes the drawbacks and limitations described above by providing a paddle assembly having a paddle that moves in a bidirectional fashion for agitating solution in a container of a plating cell. A follower is coupled to the paddle. The follower engages a rotatable cam and is propelled along the cam as the cam rotates. A drive mechanism rotates the cam.

An electroplating device including an anode inserted through and disposed in a hole provided in a work and communicating with the outside, and a member for rotating the work about its center axis and supplying a plating electric current to the work. Alternatively, a separate member may supply the plating electric current to the work. A plating solution in the hole in the work may be allowed to flow. Thus, a uniform plated film can be formed on both of the outer and inner surfaces of the work having the communicating with the outside such as a ring-shaped work, of which a ring-shaped bonded magnet is representative, by using the electroplating device.

A method and apparatus for retaining a workpiece against a workpiece holder are described. A flexible member can be used to provide a substantially uniform force to securely retain the workpiece, which can allow the workpiece to be consistently positioned in a process module. In one detailed embodiment, a barrier to fluid entry is formed between the workpiece and a ring for retaining the workpiece against a workpiece holder. This provides a reliable seal during fluid processing to prevent fluid from reaching the underside of a workpiece. In various embodiments, the workpiece holder can be used to align a workpiece in a process module or to hold one or more workpieces in a configuration that allows for higher throughput.

Electroplating station S has a head 1 with anode 2, to one side of which there is located an electrically neutral wall 3. The width of anode 2 is provided to accommodate the width of web 6. Serrations 9 are provided on the anode 2, especially in the area of top surface 8. A passageway 4 for electrolyte 5 is between anode 2 and wall 3. Mesh 11 is located at a throat section 12 of passageway 4 shortly before the start of the guide 7. In addition, mesh 13 is located further upstream in passageway 4 as an alternative and/or as an addition to mesh 11. Guide 7 of wall 3, serrations 9, and meshes 11 and 13 enhance and maximize the production of stream-wise vortices. These vortices cause a substantial increase in the ion flow, which overcomes boundary layers and results in additional deposition of copper onto the web 6.
