Abstract

See full text

A metal is electrolessly plated on a substrate which is first coated with at least one ablatively-removable layer that is selectively irradiated with laser radiation to obtain a pattern for the deposition of metal on the substrate. The electroless plating solution applied to the substrate after the irradiated substrate is coated with a catalyst also serves to remove the unirradiated portion of the ablatively-removable layer. The method is particularly suited for plating fine lines of metal, especially on non-planar surfaces.
