摘要:
An improved method of stabilizing wet chemical baths is disclosed. Typically such baths are used in processes for treating workpieces, for example, plating processes for plating metal onto substrates. In particular, the present invention relates to copper plating baths. More particularly, the present invention relates to the stability of copper plating baths. More particularly, the present invention relates to prevention of void formation by monitoring the accumulation of deleterious by-products in copper plating baths.
摘要:
A method to electrolessly plate a CoWP alloy on copper in a reproducible manner that is effective for a manufacturable process. In the method, a seed layer of palladium (Pd) is deposited on the copper by an aqueous seeding solution of palladium acetate, acetic acid and chloride. Thereafter, a complexing solution is applied to remove any Pd ions which are adsorbed on surfaces other than the copper. Finally, a plating solution of cobalt (Co), tungsten (W) and phosphorous (P) is applied to the copper so as to deposit a layer of CoWP on the Pd seed and copper.
