The effect of additives in nickel and copper electroplating were investigated for MEMS applications. Saccharin and gelatin were used as additives in nickel and copper electroplating bath respectively. The morphology and surface hardness of electroplated coating were investigated with additive concentration. Microstructures were fabricated with optimum conditions.

고밀도집적을 위한 구리기둥주석범프(CPTB)의 제작공정에 흔히 전기도금과 무전해도금이 적용된다. CPTB는 약 $100{\mu}m$ 정도의 피치를 갖도록 먼저 구리도금 층을 전착시킨 다음, 구리의 산화 억제를 위하여 구리기둥 주위에 주석을 입혀 제작한다. 이 과정에서 구리도금 층 두께를 균일하게 형성하는 일은 매우 민감하고 어렵지만 중요한 일이다. 이를 위하여 구리도금 전극 사이에 전류분포 제어를 위한 절연 막(절연게이트)을 형성하여 도금 층의 두께분포를 조절하는 실험을 하였다. 원통형 도금 조에서 중심부를 열어 전류를 흘려주고, 그 외 부분은 가장자리 끝까지 막고 전류를 차단하여 두께분포 변화를 확인하였다.

New types of the micro heat flux sensor are designed and fabricated using SU-8 and Cu electroplating. And then calibrated under convection environment. The thermal path was made by SU-8 structure and electroplated Cu layers. The bottom surface of the micro heat flux sensor receives the heat flux from the wall, Then the heat flows along the Cu layers and drains out to the environment with producing the temperature difference at the upper layer of Cu. By measuring this temperature difference, the heat flux from the wall can be obtained. The temperature difference is measured by thermopile which is composed of Ni-Cr pairs or Al-chromel pairs. The calibration is accomplished under convection environment because it is most frequent situation. The range of the sensitivity is 0.11~2.02$\mu$V/(㎽/$\textrm{cm}^2$) for the various heat flux and Reynolds numbers.

In this study, copper foil was electroplated under high current density conditions. We used Polyethylene Glycol (PEG), known for its thermal stability and low decomposition rate, as an inhibitor to form a stable and smooth copper layer on the titanium cathode. The electrolyte was composed of 50 g/L CuSO₄ and 100 g/L H₂SO₄, MPSA as an accelerator, JGB as a leveler, and PEG as a suppressor, and HCl was added as chloride ions for improving plating efficiency. The copper foil electroplated in the electrolyte added PEG which induced to inhibit the growth of rough crystals. As a result, the surface roughness value was reduced, and a uniform surface was formed over a large area. Moreover, the addition of PEG led to priority growth to the (111) plane and the formation of polygonal crystals through horizontal and vertical growth of crystals onto the cathode. In addition, the grains became fine when more than 30 ppm of PEG was added. As the microcrystalline structure changed, mechanical and electrical properties were altered. With the addition of PEG, the tensile strength increased due to grain refinement, and the elongation was improved due to the uniform surface. However, as the amount of PEG added increased, the corrosion rate and resistivity increased due to grain refinement. Finally, it was possible to manufacture a copper foil with excellent electrical and mechanical properties and the best surface properties when electroplating was carried out under the condition of additives with Cl-20 ppm, MPSA 10 ppm, JGB 5 ppm, and PEG 10 ppm.

Nickel and nickel-tungsten alloy were electroplated on a cold rolled and heat treated copper(Cu) substrate. 4 mm-thick high purity commercial grade Cu was rolled to various thicknesses of 50, 70, 100 and 150 micron. High reduction ratio of 30% was applied down to 150 micron. Rolled texture was converted into cube texture via high temperature heat treatment at $400-800^{\circ}C$. Grain size of Cu was about 50 micron which is much smaller compared to >300 micron for the Cu prepared using smaller reduction pass of 5%. 1.5 km-long 150 micron Cu was fabricated with a rolling speed of 33 m/min and texture of Cu was uniform along length. Abnormal grain growth and non-cube texture appeared for the specimen anneal above $900^{\circ}C$. 1-10 micron thick Ni and Ni-W film was electroplated onto an annealed cube-textured Cu or directly on a cold rolled Cu. Both specimens were annealed and the degree of texture was measured. For electroplating of Ni on annealed Cu, Ni layer duplicated the cube-texture of Cu substrate and the FWHM of in plane XRD measurement for annealed Cu layer and electroplated layer was $9.9^{\circ}\;and\;13.4^{\irc}$, respectively. But the FWHM of in plane XRD measurement of the specimen which electroplated Ni directly on cold rolled Cu was $8.6^{\circ}$, which is better texture than that of nickel electroplated on annealed Cu and it might be caused by the suppression of secondary recrystallization and abnormal grain growth of Cu at high temperature above $900^{\circ}C$ by electroplated nickel.

We electroplated copper-cobalt thin films on a silicon substrate, which had 150 nm thick copper seed layer. The adhesion between the two metallic layers could be increased by utilizing a proper organic additive, pulse plating technique, and high temperature annealing. The thin films exhibited columnar growth of the deposits and enhanced adhesion. This is attributed to the grain growth mechanism introduced by the additive and annealing.

We have investigated the magnetic properties of electroplated thin Cu/Co multilayers by using electrolytes made of copper sulphate and cobalt sulphate and by applying alternating plating voltage. While the multilayers plated with pure electrolyte showed superparamagnetism, those plated with organic additives showed ferromagnetic behavior. These changes are attributed to the so-called 'self-annealing' effect and reduction of grain size caused by the organic additives.
