Abstract

A method for copper direct drilling by carbon dioxide <tex xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">$(hbox CO_2)$</tex> laser was investigated for efficient microvia formation on the copper conducting layer of high-density interconnection (HDI) of printed circuit board (PCB). A metal–tin layer was coated on the surface of copper conductor foil to enhance the <tex xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">$hbox CO_2$</tex> laser energy adsorption on it. The coated surfaces were then drilled by a <tex xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">$hbox CO_2$</tex> laser with various pulse energies. The microvia holes were efficiently formed in good quality with one laser pulse on 9- <tex xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">$muhbox m$</tex> -thick polished copper conducting layer. The laser energy absorption of coated copper foils was approximately calculated. The experimental results demonstrated the potential application of the developed method in high-density interconnection printed circuit board manufacturing.
