    Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein include electronic packages with a ground plate embedded in the solder resist that extends over signal traces. In an embodiment, the electronic package comprises a substrate layer, a trace over the substrate layer, and a first pad over the substrate layer. In an embodiment, a solder resist is disposed over the trace and the first pad. In an embodiment a trench is formed into the solder resist, and the trench extends over the trace. In an embodiment, a conductive plate is disposed in the trench, and is electrically coupled to the first pad by a via that extends from a bottom surface of the trench through the solder resist.

    Abstract: Embodiments include package substrates and a method of forming the package substrates. A package substrate includes a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) layer over a first dielectric, where the SAM layer includes first end groups and second end groups. The second end groups may include a plurality of hydrophobic moieties. The package substrate also includes a conductive pad on the first dielectric, where the conductive pad has a bottom surface, a top surface, and a sidewall, and where the SAM layer surrounds and contacts a surface of the sidewall of the conductive pad. The hydrophobic moieties may include fluorinated moieties. The conductive pad includes a copper material, where the top surface of the conductive pad has a surface roughness that is approximately equal to a surface roughness of the as-plated copper material. The SAM layer may have a thickness that is approximately 0.1 nm to 20 nm.
