ABSTRACT:
A method of soldering a copper layer without the use of fluxing agents by exposing the copper layer to a fluorine-containing plasma. Solder is then placed onto the surface of the copper layer and reflowed. Reflow can take place at low temperatures, atmospheric pressure and in an inert or oxidizing atmosphere using standard solder reflow equipment.
