ABSTRACT:
There is provided a method for increasing the useful effective plating rate of an electroless copper deposition solution which comprises copper ion, a complexing agent for copper ion, a reducing agent and a pH adjustor and which is characterized by a plating rate which first increases and passes through a peak plating rate and then decreases as a function of a pH above 10. In accordance with this invention, the plating rate of such a solution may be significantly increased by operation thereof in the presence of an accelerating or depolarizing agent at a pH to achieve a plating rate above the plating rate of the solution without such an agent at the same pH. The accelerating or depolarizing agents for use herein include compounds containing a delocalized pi-bond, such as heterocyclic aromatic nitrogen and sulfur compounds, non-aromatic nitrogen compounds having at least one delocalized pi-bond, and aromatic amines.
