摘要:
A method of making a circuitized substrate such as a laminate chip carrier in which a polymer, e.g., Teflon, is used as a dielectric layer and a promotion adhesion layer of a polymer is used to securely adhere a conductive layer thereto which is deposited by plating. The resulting product is thus able to provide extremely narrow conductive circuitry for subsequent connections, e.g., to a semiconductor chip. Electroless plating is the preferred plating method with the dielectric immersed in a solution of conductive monomers, e.g., pyrrole monomer, the solution also possibly containing a seed material such as palladium-tin.
摘要:
A process by which high frequency printed wiring board construction can be fabricated using smooth copper surfaces. A conductive, thin film polymer is plated on smooth copper surfaces of a core lamination. The polymer can be selected from a group of materials consisting of polypyrrole, polyaniline, polythiophene, and combinations thereof. The conductive polymer promotes adhesion between the resin polymer of the laminate and the smooth copper surfaces.

A colloidal metal seed formulation useful for catalytically activating a surface of a non-conductive dielectric substrate in an electroless plating process is provided. The colloidal metal seed formulation includes stannous chloride, palladium chloride, HCl and a surfactant selected from a diphenyloxide disulfonic acid or alkali or alkaline earth metal salt thereof, C30H50O10, an alcohol alkoxylate and mixtures thereof. A method of electroless plating of a conductive metal onto a non-conductive dielectric substrate using the colloidal metal seed formulation is also provided.
摘要:
A PWB or multilayer board with circuit traces is treated by a process that serves to reduce the incident of failure of the board. The process includes the steps of applying a thin commoning layer of copper onto a catalyzed surface of the board substrate and the circuit lines. A photoresist is then applied over the commoning layer after which the photoresist is removed only from the commoning material over the circuit lines. A thin layer of a more noble metal, such as nickel, is electrodeposited over the exposed conductive layer. This is followed by a gold layer electrodeposited over the nickel in close registry therewith. The process provides the traces with a conforming nickel/gold layer that extends down the side of the traces. This reduces the tendency of a subsequent copper etch step from undercutting the nickel/gold, thereby causing slivers that could cause short circuiting between adjacent circuit patterns.
