ABSTRACT:
An electroless plating bath is selectively cleaned of organic contaminants. The organic contaminants are detected by measuring the capacitance between a working electrode and counter electrode with a potentiostat. The capacitance measurements are used to indicate the level of organic contaminants. Exposure of the dummy plating surface in the electroless plating bath is controlled such that the exposed surface is directly proportional to the detected level of organic contaminants.
