METHOD FOR PLATING RF EQUIPMENT AND RF EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURED THEREFROM

摘要

A plating method for an RF device is disclosed. The method includes (a) pre-treating the RF device made from a substrate material; (b) forming a copper plating layer by applying copper plating to the RF device; and (c) forming a thin-film layer over the copper plating layer, the thin-film layer made of a precious metal, where a thickness of the precious-metal thin-film layer is thinner than a skin depth at a working frequency band. The disclosed method makes it possible to provide a plating treatment with a low cost while providing a superior appearance quality.
