A method of fabricating a hybrid circuit including a siliceous substrate and thick metal conductors. A thin film barrier layer is provided intermediate the substrate and a vacuum-deposited metal layer, which metal layer is subsequently electroplated to provide the desired metal thickness. The barrier layer, which may suitably be a refractory metal oxide such as the oxides of zirconium, tantalum, titanium, or tungsten, prevents loss of adhesion between the vacuum deposited metal and substrate that occurs during electroplating. |
