Abstract: There is provided a method for producing a metal/ceramic bonding substrate, the method being capable of improving the linearity of a pattern and preventing the occurrence of defective plating to improve the visual failure of plating and ensure the adhesion of plating.

Abstract: An electronic circuit substrate including an aluminum-ceramic composite material having an electronic circuit formed on aluminum or an aluminum alloy plate of the aluminum-ceramic composite material which is prepared directly solidifying molten aluminum or an aluminum alloy on at least a portion of a ceramic substrate.

Abstract: Molten aluminum and a ceramic substrate are held in direct contact with each other and thereafter cooled to have the aluminum joined directly to the ceramic substrate. This method is capable of consistent and easy production of aluminum-ceramics composite substrates having satisfactory joint strength, thermal conductivity and heat resistance characteristics. A ceramic member is fed successively into and through molten metal to directly bond the metal on the ceramic to produce a metal-bonded-ceramic (MBC) material at a low cost. An electronic circuit substrate made of an aluminum ceramic composite material wherein an electronic circuit is formed on an aluminum surface of the aluminum-ceramic composite material. The aluminum-ceramic composite material is made by directly solidifying molten aluminum or an aluminum alloy on at least a portion of a ceramic substrate.
