  • Publication number: 20230056444
    Abstract: The invention relates to an electrochemical deposition system for a chemical and/or electrolytic surface treatment of a substrate, a module for chemical and/or electrolytic surface treatment of a substrate in a process fluid, a use of the electrochemical deposition system or the module for chemical and/or electrolytic surface treatment for a metal deposition application and a manufacturing method for an electrochemical deposition system for a chemical and/or electrolytic surface treatment of a substrate. The electrochemical deposition system comprises an anode, an anode enclosure, and a single electrolyte. The anode enclosure extends at least partially around the anode. The anode enclosure comprises a membrane. The anode and the anode enclosure are arranged in the single electrolyte. The single electrolyte is the only electrolyte of the electrochemical deposition system.

  • Publication number: 20150247251
    Abstract: Processes and systems for electrochemical deposition of a multi-component solder by processing a microfeature workpiece with a first processing fluid and an anode are described. Microfeature workpieces are electrolytically processed using a first processing fluid, an anode, a second processing fluid, and a cation permeable barrier layer. The cation permeable barrier layer separates the first processing fluid from the second processing fluid while allowing certain cationic species to transfer between the two fluids.
