Abstract

A laminate including a metallic base material, a first nickel-containing plating film layer formed on the metallic base material, a gold plating film layer formed on the first nickel-containing plating film layer, a second nickel-containing plating film layer formed on the gold plating film layer, and a nickel fluoride film layer formed on the second nickel-containing plating film layer. Also disclosed is a method for producing the laminate as well as a constituent member of a semiconductor production device including the laminate.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A laminate comprising
a metallic base material,
a first nickel-containing plating film layer formed on the metallic base material,
a gold plating film layer formed on the first nickel-containing plating film layer,
a second nickel-containing plating film layer formed on the gold plating film layer, and
a nickel fluoride film layer formed on the second nickel-containing plating film layer.

2. The laminate according to claim 1 , wherein pinholes in the gold plating film layer are sealed with a metal which is a nickel simple substance, and
pinholes in the first and second nickel-containing plating film layers are sealed with a metal which is a gold simple substance.

3. The laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the metallic base material comprises at least one metal selected from the group consisting of stainless steel, iron, aluminum, aluminum alloys, copper, and copper alloys.

4. The laminate according to claim 1 , having a nickel strike layer between the metallic base material and the first nickel-containing plating film layer, and between the gold plating film layer and the second nickel-containing plating film layer.

5. The laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the first nickel-containing plating film layer comprises a nickel-phosphorus alloy plating layer having a phosphorus concentration of 8% by mass or higher and lower than 10% by mass, and the second nickel-containing plating film layer comprises a nickel-phosphorus alloy plating layer having a phosphorus concentration of 10% by mass or higher and 12% by mass or lower.

6. The laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the gold plating film layer comprises a displacement gold plating film layer and a reduction gold plating film layer in this order from the first nickel-containing plating film layer.

7. The laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the nickel fluoride film layer has a thickness of 70 nm or greater.

8. A constituent member of a semiconductor production device, made up of the laminate according to claim 1 .

9. A method for producing the laminate according to claim 1 , comprising
a step (A) of forming the first nickel-containing plating film layer on a metallic base material,
a step (B) of forming the gold plating film layer on the first nickel-containing plating film layer,
a step (C) of forming the second nickel-containing plating film layer on the gold plating film layer, and
a step (D) of forming the nickel fluoride film layer on the second nickel-containing plating film layer.

10. The method for producing a laminate according to claim 9 comprising a step (X) between the step (C) and the step (D), wherein the laminate obtained in the step (C) is subjected to a heat treatment under the condition of a temperature being 250° C. or higher in order to seal pinholes in the gold plating film layer with a metal which is a nickel simple substance and seal pinholes in the first and second nickel-containing plating film layers with a metal which is a gold simple substance.

11. The method for producing a laminate according to claim 9 , wherein the step (D) is performed in an atmosphere in which a fluorine gas concentration is 8% by volume or higher and a temperature is 250° C. or higher.

12. The method for producing a laminate according to claim 9 , comprising a step of subjecting the metallic base material to a nickel strike treatment under the condition of a current density of 3 to 20 A/dm 2 before the step (A) and before the step (C).

13. The method for producing a laminate according to claim 9 ,
wherein the step (A) comprises a step of forming a nickel-phosphorus alloy plating layer having a phosphorus concentration of 8% by mass or higher and lower than 10% by mass, and
the step (C) comprises a step of forming a nickel-phosphorus alloy plating layer having a phosphorus concentration of 10% by mass or higher and 12% by mass or lower.

14. The method for producing a laminate according to claim 9 , wherein the step (B) comprises a step (b1) of forming a displacement gold plating film layer, and a step (b2) of forming a reduction gold plating film layer after the step (b1).
