Abstract

A workpiece holding jig for holding a plate-shaped workpiece that is an object to be electroplated, includes a frame and a back panel. The frame includes an annular body, a conductive member, a contact member, an inner seal member, and an outer seal member. The frame forms a sealed space between the inner seal member and the outer seal member, that accommodates the peripheral edge, the conductive member, and the contact member. The inner seal member has a column and a lip in order from outside to inside, the column protrudes toward the back panel so as to come into pressure contact with the peripheral edge of the workpiece when holding the workpiece, and the lip protrudes toward the back panel to the same extent as that of the column, with at least a tip portion of the lip inclined outward.

Abstract

The present invention provides an apparatus capable of measuring a deposition status, such as a plating deposition rate, even during a plating process in a plating tank. A controller 20 controls a plating solution introduction mechanism 6 to introduce a plating solution in a plating tank 2 into a reaction container 4. By the introduced plating solution, a metal film is deposited on a deposition member 12 provided in the reaction container 4. Next, metal film dissolution control means 24 of the controller 20 controls an etching solution introduction mechanism 8 to introduce an etching solution into the reaction container 4 instead of the plating solution. The introduced etching solution dissolves the metal film deposited on the deposition member 12. A measurement equipment 10 measures a metal concentration-related value (metal concentration or a metal concentration-related value) of the post-processing etching solution in which the metal film is dissolved. Estimation means 26 of the controller 20 estimates the deposition status, such as the plating deposition rate, in the plating tank 2 on the basis of the metal concentration-related value measured by the measurement equipment 10.

Abstract

In a flow down type surface treating apparatus, a scattering amount of a processing solution Q is reduced. A honeycomb member 60 is provided vertically below a transport hanger 16. The honeycomb member 60 consists of a plurality of tubular members with hexagonal holes connected together. When the processing solution Q falls in a vertical direction (in the direction of an arrow α), the processing solution Q passes through through-holes of the honeycomb member 60. When the processing solution Q hits liquid level H, a part of it is reflected. Since a part of the reflected processing solution Q is reflected obliquely, it collides with an inner wall of the through-hole of the honeycomb member 60. As a result, the amount of the treatment liquid Q that emerges again on an upper surface of the through-holes is reduced. Thereby, the honeycomb member 60 exhibits a scattering prevention function.

Abstract

In a flow down type surface treating apparatus, a scattering amount of a processing solution is reduced. A film forming mechanism 110 is provided on an inlet side and an outlet side of each treatment chamber. The film forming mechanism 110 ejects a continuous laminar liquid under pressure of about 0.01 MPa at a flow rate of 5 to 10 L/min. Such a liquid film prevents droplets reflected on a surface of an antiscattering member 60 from splashing and entering the adjacent treatment chamber. When a plate-like work 10 is shaken to collide with the liquid film, the film flows down along the plate-like work 10 since the film formed by the film forming mechanism 110 is liquid. Thereby, a shake of the plate-like work 10 is converged. An amount of air flowing in toward a transport direction in each treatment chamber is reduced.

The lateral protective walls 49 are fixed perpendicularly to lower protective walls 47 fixed to outer walls 39. Hanging plates 64 of a hanger 50 extend through a space 43 between both lower protective walls 47 and support clips 52. A liquid 41, such as water, is filled in spaces defined by the lateral protective walls 49, the lower protective walls 47, and the outer walls 39. The liquid 41 is filled to cover about half of each rotating shaft 72. Thus, fine dust generated by a transferring mechanism is captured by the liquid 41 and prevented from drifting from the space 34 toward the substrate 54.

When a treatment bath 2 is rotated, parts 20 contact an electrode 50 to be electroplated. In this event, a plating liquid 16 is used as circulated by a pump P. The plating liquid 16 is discharged to the outside through a gap in a side wall 80 for replacement of the plating liquid 16 or the like. During discharge, the plating liquid 16 is not circulated by the pump P. The gap 8 which is formed in the side wall 80 is formed to be smaller than the minimum dimension of the parts 20 on the inner side. The gap 8 is formed to be wider toward the outer side. Thus, water is discharged immediately.

Abstract

Provided is a method for producing a novel printed wiring board that achieves higher adhesion between a filler-containing insulating resin substrate and a plating film. A production method according to the present invention is a method for producing a printed wiring board by subjecting an insulating resin substrate that contains a filler to a swelling treatment, a roughening treatment, a reduction treatment and electroless plating, wherein the insulating resin substrate is treated with a first treatment liquid which contains an ethylene-based glycol ether represented by CmH(2m + 1)-(OC2H4)n-OH (wherein m is an integer of 1-4 and n is an integer of 1-4) and at least one propylene-based glycol ether selected from the group consisting of propylene-based glycol ethers represented by CxH(2x + 1)-(OC3H6)y-OH (wherein x is an integer of 1-4 and y is an integer of 1-3), while having a pH of 7 or more, and is subsequently treated with a second treatment liquid which contains an amine-based silane coupling agent, while having a pH of 7.0 or more after the reduction treatment but before the electroless plating.

Abstract

A surface treating apparatus that suppresses occurrence of defects is provided. A treatment solution is accumulated in a tank 15 through a treatment solution collecting port/air discharging port 13 in a lower portion of a body 4. An air heated by the treatment solution flows toward an upper portion (portion without the treatment solution) of the tank 15 via the treatment solution collecting port/air discharging port 13 in the lower portion of the body 4, and is discharged via an exhaust duct 17. In this way, the air that is heated and tends to flow upward in the body 4 is discharged from the lower portion thereof and is replaced with an external air from the upper portion thereof. Accordingly, the air in the body 4 can be maintained at a uniform temperature. Thus, the treatment solution that reaches a lower portion of a substrate 54 from an upper portion thereof can be maintained at a uniform temperature. The air is caused to flow toward the lower portion from the upper portion in the body 4, so that the substrate 54 is pulled downward, and swinging of the substrate 54 can thus be reduced. Therefore, the substrate 54 can be less likely to contact an inlet 44 and an outlet 46.

Abstract

To provide surface treatment that can reduce occurrence of defects caused by incorporation of dust. Rollers 40 are rotatably fixed to rotating shafts 72 provided to protrude from lateral protective walls 49. The lateral protective walls 49 are fixed perpendicularly to lower protective walls 47 fixed to outer walls 39. Hanging plates 64 of a hanger 50 extend through a space 43 between both lower protective walls 47 and support clips 52. A liquid 41, such as water, is filled in spaces defined by the lateral protective walls 49, the lower protective walls 47, and the outer walls 39. The liquid 41 is filled to cover about half of each rotating shaft 72. Thus, fine dust generated by a transferring mechanism is captured by the liquid 41 and prevented from drifting from the space 34 toward the substrate 54.

Abstract

A solution comprising a palladium compound and a polyaminocarboxylic compound has been found to be suitable as a bath for electroless plating of palladium onto copper. Use of such a solution produces a plated component comprising a copper surface and a palladium plated coating having a thickness of between 0.01 micrometers (μm) and 5 μm. A method for electroless plating of palladium onto a copper surface of a component includes preparing a bath having a palladium compound and a polyaminocarboxylic compound. The copper component is submerged in the bath to plate a palladium layer on the copper surface of the component. The component resulting from the plating method has a palladium layer plated on the copper surface.
