Abstract
Described herein is a copper electroplating composition including copper ions, an acid, and at least one polyaminoamide including a group of formula L1 [B-A-B′—Z]n[Y—Z]m (L1) that is obtainable by reacting a diamine compound including two primary or secondary amino groups with an amino acid in a molar ratio of approx. 1:2 to form an aminoamide compound that is afterwards reacted with a coupling agent and optionally with a diamine co-monomer.
