Abstract: Disclosed are: a copper metal film which has good adhesion to a substrate, low volume resistivity, and good deep-part metal properties; and a method for producing a copper metal film, wherein the copper metal film can be produced by reducing a substrate to a deep part thereof without damaging the substrate. Specifically disclosed is a copper metal film obtained by treating a copper-based particle deposition layer containing both copper oxides and a metallic transition metal or alloy, or a transition metal complex containing a metal element, with gaseous formic acid and/or formaldehyde heated to 120° C. or higher. The copper oxide is preferably copper (I) oxide and/or copper (II) oxide. The transition metal, alloy or metal complex are preferably a metal selected from the group consisting of Cu, Pd, Pt, Ni, Ag, Au and Rh, an alloy containing the metal, or a complex containing the metal element, respectively.

Abstract: Provided are a copper conductor film and manufacturing method thereof, and patterned copper conductor wiring, which have superior conductivity and wiring pattern formation, and with which there is no decrease in insulation between circuits, even at narrow wiring widths and narrow inter-wiring spacing.

Abstract: There is provided a method wherein a surface treating agent, which is essential for making copper particles antioxidative and dispersing the copper particles in the prior art, is hardly used, but copper particles, which cause little electromigration and are small in the price rate of material itself, are used to form a low-resistance copper wiring pattern while the generation of cracks therein is restrained. The method includes the step of using a dispersion slurry wherein copper based particles having a copper oxide surface are dispersed to form any pattern over a substrate, and the step of reducing the copper oxide surface of the copper based particles in the pattern with atomic form hydrogen to return the oxide to copper, and sintering particles of the copper metal generated by the reduction and bonding the particles to each other.

Abstract: The connection reliability of connecting terminals with displacement gold plating films is improved by connecting terminals comprising a conductive layer, an electroless nickel plating film, a first palladium plating film which is a displacement or electroless palladium plating film with a purity of 99% by mass or greater, a second palladium plating film which is an electroless palladium plating film with a purity of at least 90% by mass and less than 99% by mass, and a displacement gold plating film, wherein the electroless nickel plating film, the first palladium plating film, the second palladium plating film and the displacement gold plating film are laminated in that order on one side of the conductive layer, and the displacement gold plating film is situated on the uppermost surface layer on the opposite side from the conductive layer.
