METHODS OF PATTERNING A DEPOSIT METAL ON A POLYMERIC SUBSTRATE

摘要

A method of patterning a deposit metal on a polymeric substrate is described. The method includes providing a polymeric film substrate having a major surface with a relief pattern having a recessed region and an adjacent raised region, depositing a first material onto the major surface of the polymeric film substrate to form a coated polymeric film substrate, forming a layer of a functionalizing material selectively onto the raised region of the coated polymeric film substrate to form a functionalized raised region and an unfunctionalized recessed region, and depositing electrolessly a deposit metal selectively on the unfunctionalized recessed region.
