Development Status Of Copper Electroplating Filling Technology In Through Glass Via For 3d Interconnections, Zhi-Jing Ji, Hui-Qin Ling, Pei-Lin Wu, Rui-Yi Yu, Da-Quan Yu, Ming Li

Journal of Electrochemistry

With the slow development of Moore's Law, the high density and miniaturization of microelectronic devices put forward higher requirements for advanced packaging technology. As a key technology in 2.5D/3D packaging, interposer technology has been extensively studied. According to different interposer materials, it is mainly divided into organic interposer, silicon interposer and glass interposer. Compared with the through silicon via (TSV) interconnection, the through glass via (TGV) interposer has received extensive attention in the 2.5D/3D advanced packaging field for its advantages of excellent high-frequency electrical characteristics, simple process, low cost, and adjustable coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE). However, the thermal conductivity …

Effect Of Sodium Alcohol Thiyl Propane Sulfonate On Electrolysis Of High Performance Copper Foil For Lithium Ion Batteries, Sen Yang, Wen-Chang Wang, Ran Zhang, Shui-Ping Qin, Min-Xian Wu, Naotoshi Mitsuzaki, Zhi-Dong Chen

Journal of Electrochemistry

Electrolytic copper foils have been widely used in printed circuit boards and lithium-ion batteries due to their simple production process and high economic value. In the process of electrolysis foil making, additives can greatly improve the performance of electrolytic copper foils. In this work, the copper foils were prepared in a self-designed plate electrodeposition device of which the operating principles were in accordance with those of actual industrial production. A series of the Virgin Make-up Solution (VMS: 312.5 g·L-1 CuSO₄·5H₂O, 100 g·L-1 H₂SO₄, 50 mg·L-1 Cl-) containing different additives was investigated to …

Effects Of Carrier, Leveller, And Booster Concentrations On Zinc Plating From Alkaline Zincate Baths, Abdul Jalil Mohammed, Michael S. Moats

Materials Science and Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

Organic additives are required for alkaline zincate plating baths to obtain an acceptable coating on steel for corrosion protection. The effects and possible interactions of three commercial additives (Eldiem Carrier, Eldiem Booster, and Bright Enhancer 2x on zinc electrodeposition from a high-concentration alkaline zincate bath were investigated. Visually acceptable deposits were produced within the current density range of 130 to 430 A m^-2 for most additive conditions examined. Over concentration ranges examined, decreasing the booster concentration led to brighter zinc deposits, and an interaction between the carrier and the booster was detected. The additives fostered the formation of compact …

An Additive Incorporated Non-Nucleophilic Electrolyte For Stable Magnesium Ion Batteries, Mao-Ling Xie, Jun Wang, Chen-Ji Hu, Lei Zheng, Hua-Bin Kong, Yan-Bin Shen, Hong-Wei Chen, Li-Wei Chen

Journal of Electrochemistry

Non-nucleophilic electrolytes are promising next-generation highly stable electrolytes for magnesium-ion batteries (MIBs). However, a passivation layer on Mg metal anode usually blocks Mg2+ diffusion, leading to poor reaction kinetics and low Coulombic efficiency of the Mg plating/stripping in these electrolytes. Here we explore the utilization of phenyl disulfide (PDF) as a film-forming additive for non-nucleophilic electrolytes to regulate the interfacial chemistry on Mg metal anode. Phenyl-thiolate generated from the PDF additive was found to suppress the unfavorable surface blocking layer, resulted in a high Coulombic efficiency of up to 99.5% for the Mg plating/stripping process as well as a remarkably …

The Effect Of Mass Transport On Deposit Quality In Copper Electrowinning, Joseph Bauer

Doctoral Dissertations

"Roughness and nodulation of copper electrodeposits depend strongly on mass transfer conditions of copper ions to the electrode surface. Mass transfer properties in electrowinning electrolytes were first characterized. The effective diffusivity of cupric ion was measured with a rotating disk electrode in CuSO₄-H₂SO₄ electrolytes at temperatures relevant to electrowinning, with and without additives. Adding 20 mg L^-1 of chloride ion increased the measured diffusion coefficient, but commercial smoothing additives had little effect. An empirical formula to predict cupric diffusivity was generated for later use in mass transport modeling.

Zinc Plating From Alkaline Non-Cyanide Bath, Abdul J. Mohammed

Masters Theses

“Alkaline non-cyanide zinc plating baths are preferred when trying to avoid the toxicity of cyanide baths or corrosivity of acid baths. Without additives, alkaline zincate baths produce powdery non-adherent deposits which have no use in commercial plating. Additives must be added at optimum concentrations to produce adherent, bright and uniform zinc deposits. In this study electrochemical tests were used to determine effects of additives on cathodic polarization, throwing power and morphology of deposits. Current density distribution in a unique bath of 37.5 g L^-1 Zn and 210 g L^-1 NaOH was modelled using COMSOL and validated two plating …
