Abstract

A copper foil structure having blackened ultra-thin copper foil of the instant disclosure includes a carrier foil, a blackened layer, a release layer, and an ultra-thin copper foil. The carrier foil includes a matte surface and a shiny surface wherein the blackened layer is disposed thereon. The release layer is disposed on the blackened layer formed with one selected from the group: copper, cobalt, nickel, and manganese while the release layer is formed with one selected from the group: molybdenum, nickel, chromium, and potassium. Successively, the ultra-thin copper foil is disposed on the release layer. Laser drilling can apply to the blackened ultra-thin copper foil on the inner layers of a high density multi-layer printed wiring board, thus eliminating the traditional blackening or browning chemical process. The blackened ultra-thin copper foil in combination with a polyimide thin (PI) or other substrate materials displays desirable appearance.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method for manufacturing a copper foil structure having a blackened ultra-thin foil, comprising steps of:
providing a carrier foil having a shiny surface and a matte surface opposing the shiny surface;
forming a blackened layer on the shiny surface of the carrier foil, wherein the blackened layer is made of a quaternary alloy having copper, cobalt, nickel and manganese;
forming a release layer on the blackened layer, wherein the release layer is made of a material selected from the group consisting of molybdenum, nickel, chromium, potassium, and the combination thereof; and
forming an ultra-thin copper foil on the release layer.

2. The method as recited in claim 1 , wherein the step of forming an ultra-thin copper foil comprises the steps of:
forming a first blackening treated layer on the ultra-thin copper foil and a second blackening treated layer on the matte surface of the carrier foil; and
forming two heat and rust proof layers, wherein one of the heat and rust proof layers is formed on the first blackening treated layer and the other thereof is formed on the second blackening treated layer.

3. The method as recited in claim 1 , wherein the blackened layer undergoes electroplating in a plating bath having ions of copper, cobalt, nickel, and manganese at a molality ratio of 10.5:17.5:1:4.5, respectively to form a quaternary alloy having copper, cobalt, nickel and manganese.

4. The method as recited in claim 1 , wherein the blackened layer undergoes electroplating in a plating bath having a nickel sulfate hexahydrate concentration of about 1 to 40 g/L, a copper sulfate pentahydrate concentration of about 10 to 60 g/L, a cobalt sulfate heptahydrate concentration of about 10 to 50 g/L, and a manganese sulfate hydrate concentration of about 10 to 40 g/L to form the quaternary alloy having copper, cobalt, nickel and manganese.

5. The method as recited in claim 1 , wherein the release layer undergoes electroplating in a plating bath having a nickel sulfate hexahydrate concentration of about 10 to 50 g/L, a sodium molybdate dihydrate concentration of about 0.5 to 10 g/L, a potassium pyrophosphate (K 4 P 2 O 7 ) concentration of about 50 to 100 g/L, and a chromium trioxide (CrO 3 ) concentration of about 0.5 to 2 g/L to form a quaternary alloy having molybdenum, nickel, chromium, and potassium.
