ABSTRACTUV excimer laser light-induced prenucleation of various surfaces from spin-on films in air is described. Good results were obtained using palladium acetate on substrate materials ranging from ceramics to polymers and even paper. Virtually any surface material can be prenucleated in this way. The Pd-prenucleated planar and curved surfaces can be metallized by a vast variety of metals using electroless plating solutions (Cu, Ni, Au, Pt, Co, Sn, and even alloys). Results are described in detail for copper from a standard electroless solution (Doduco or Shipley). Contact metallization through via holes using this process was aachieved with excellent contact properties.

ABSTRACTExcimer laser pulses with wavelengths of 248 and 308 nm were used to selectively seed Pd on SiO2 surfaces, making them suitable for electroless plating. This novel seeding process for insulating materials is accomplished with the sample immersed in the seeding solution, and occurs only on the areas of the substrate that are illuminated (through the liquid) by the laser light. The Pd content of the seeded samples increased with the number of pulses, but was rather independent of repetition rate. The deposition rate showed a dependence with wavelength consistent with a defect driven mechanism for electron excitation through the band gap of SiO2. These electrons then reduce the Pd ions in the solution in contact with the surface.

AbstractCircuit patterned nucleation of copper atoms onto polyimide surface was demonstrated by using ArF excimer laser (λ =193nm) and copper sulfate aqueous solution at an atmospheric pressure. Photo-excited C-H bonds of the polyimide surface were effectively dehydrated with hydrogen atoms which were photodissociated from the water. The dangling bonds of the dehydrated hydrogen atoms were combined with the oxygen and the copper atoms which were photodissociated by copper-sulfate aqueous solution. Thus, C-O-Cu bonds were formed on the surface. After this copper substitution, it was carried out onto the nucleated parts by usual electroless plating at 70°C. In this process, the conductive circuit pattern Cu thin film was deposited on polyimide surface.

ABSTRACTUV excimer laser-induced deposition of palladium from spin coated palladium acetate films in air is described. We have investigated mainly the deposition of palladium on aluminum oxide and quartz substrates and its dependence on the fluence and the number of excimer laser pulses. The decomposition mechanism was studied by measuring in situ the transmitted pulse energy during the exposure process. We have found that the excimer laser-induced decomposition of palladium acetate films is mainly pyrolytic and a simple model can be used to describe the decomposition process.
