ABSTRACT:
A method for plating very thin films of aluminum for subsequent electrical contact. The method is particularly suitable for preparation of the thin films of aluminum used in semiconductor integrated circuits for subsequent plating operations or lead bonding processes. The method comprises a removal of surface oxides in a way that does not substantially attack the very thin films of aluminum followed by immersion plating with a metal selected from the group comprising zinc, tin, nickel, silver and copper.
