Abstract:
An electroplating process of electroplating an electrically conductive substrate is described. The process includes electroplating intermittently to a predetermined plating thickness using the substrate surface as a cathode and a plating metal as an anode at a constant voltage between the anode and the cathode by repeating application of a voltage between a cathode and an anode and interruption of the application alternately. It is described that a voltage time/interruption time ratio is 0.1 to 1.0, a voltage time is not longer than 10 seconds, and an interruption time is not less than 1 x 10-12 seconds.

Abstract:
There are disclosed insulated ultrafine powder comprising electroconductive ultrafine powder which is in the form of sphere, spheroid or acicular each having a minor axis in the range of 1 to 100 nm and an insulating film applied thereto; a process for producing the same which is capable of covering the surfaces of the insulated ultrafine powder with the insulating film having a thickness in the range of 0.3 to 100 nm without causing any clearance or vacancy; and a resin composite material which uses the same. A high dielectric constant of the material is assured by adding a small amount of insulated ultrafine powder wherein an insulating film is applied to the electroconductive ultrafine powder, while maintaining the processability and moldability that are the characteristics inherent in a resin material.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a high-dielectric constant metal/ceramic/polymer composite material and a method for producing an embedded capacitor.As ceramic particles having a relatively small size are bound to the surface of metal particles having a relatively large size by mixing, the occurrence of percolation can be prevented without coating the metal particles, and at the same time, the capacitance of an embedded capacitor can be increased. In addition, a process for coating the surface of the metal particles can be omitted, thus contributing to the simplification of the overall preparation procedure.

Abstract:
A method of soldering electronic component (6) having solder bumps (7) formed thereon to substrate (12), wherein bumps (7) are pressed against a flux transferring stage on which a thin film is formed of flux (10) containing metal powder (16) of good wettability to solder so as to cause metal powder (16) to penetrate oxide films (7a) and embed in the surfaces on the bottom parts of bumps (7), and bumps (7) in this state are positioned and mounted to electrodes (12a) on substrate (12). Substrate (12) is then heated to melt bumps (7) and allow the melted solder to flow and spread along the surfaces of metal powder (16) toward electrodes (12a). The method can thus provide solder bonding portions of high quality without any soldering defect and deterioration of the insulating property.
