  • Patent number: 9458541
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for electroless (immersion) plating of tin and tin alloys having a thickness of ?1 ?m as a final finish in the manufacture of printed circuit boards, IC substrates, semiconductor wafers and the like. The method utilizes an electroless plated sacrificial layer of copper between the copper contact pad and the electroless plated tin layer which is dissolved completely during tin plating. The method compensates the undesired loss of copper from a contact pad during electroless plating of thick tin layers.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8888903
    Abstract: The present invention concerns an aqueous plating bath composition for electroless deposition of palladium and/or palladium alloys and a method which utilises such aqueous plating bath compositions. The aqueous plating bath comprises a source of palladium ions, a reducing agent, a nitrogenated complexing agent which is free of phosphorous and at least one organic stabilising agent comprising 1 to 5 phosphonate residues. The aqueous plating bath and the method are particularly useful if the aqueous plating bath comprises copper ions.
