摘要:
Compositions and processes for electrolytic plating. The compositions are characterized by critical amounts of one or more brightening and leveling agents. The compositions are particularly useful for plating through hole walls of printed circuit boards, including through holes having an aspect ratio equal or greater than about ten to one.
摘要:
A composition for electroplating copper onto a conductive surface comprising a solution soluble copper salt and an acid electrolyte, said copper salt being present in a concentration of from about 1 to 10 grams per liter of solution and said acid being present in a concentration whereby the acid to copper ratio preferably varies between about 30 to 1 and 50 to 1. The composition is especially useful for the plating of walls of cylindrical openings having a ratio of height to diameter of at least 10 to 1 and a length of at least 0.100 inches.Also disclosed is a device for measuring throwing power of a plating solution. The device comprises two anodes and a cathode suspended in a chamber adapted to contain a plating solution. The cathode is suspended between said anodes and comprises two flat electrode portions in electrical contact with each other, in parallel relationship to each other and spaced apart from each other to define a space containing plating solution. Each of said flat electrode portions has electrode portions electrically isolated from a center electrode and means for measuring the current on said first electrode portions and center electrode.

The invention discloses the use of an additive for acid copper plating bath which is chosen based on criteria of creating a shift in the charge transfer overpotential of the bath; or alternatively, creating a differential overpotential between the surface of a high aspect ratio circuit board and the recesses of such boards. The additive may be a single or multi-component additive.
