  • Method for modifying an electrically conductive oxide surface, use for electrodeposition of copper on said surface
    Patent number: 10428435
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for modifying the surface of a substrate made of electrically conductive metal oxide and notably made of ITO, comprising the following steps consisting in: (i) bringing into contact said surface with a solution containing copper ions (Cu2+) and ammonia then washing and optionally drying the surface thus obtained; and (ii) bringing into contact the surface obtained following step (i) with a solution containing sodium tetraborohydride then washing and optionally drying the surface of said conductive metal oxide substrate. The present invention relates to the use of such a method within the scope of the metallization by copper of a conductive metal oxide substrate as well as the surfaces of a modified and metallized conductive metal oxide substrate thus obtained.
