Abstract
In a method of manufacturing a contact element, provision is made of a laminated body which has an insulating film, an electrically conductive layer stacked on the insulating film, and bump holes opened. A treatment is carried out so as to remove organic materials and the like from an interior of the bump holes and/or a surface of the insulating film before bumps are formed on the bump holes. The treatment may be a plasma treatment or an X-ray irradiation.
Claims12
A method for manufacturing a contact element for a wafer batch contact board, said wafer batch contact board comprising:
- the contact element, a multi-layered wiring substrate, and an anisotropic electrically conductive rubber between the contact element and the multi-layered wiring substrate to electrically connect the multi-layered wiring substrate with the contact element;
- said method comprising the steps of:
- (1)(a) forming a laminated body including an insulating film and at least one electrically conductive layer;
- (1)(b) forming, at predetermined positions of the insulating film, bump holes that extend from the surface of the insulting film to the at least one electrically conductive layer;
- (1)(c) spreading the laminated body on a support frame;
- (1)(d)performing surface treatment by carrying out a plasma treatment to treat the interior of the bump holes and/or the surface of the insulating film;
- and
- (1)(e) forming bumps on the bump holes treated in the surface treatment step;
- and the multi-layered wiring substrate being manufactured by the steps of:
- (2)(a) forming a first electrically conductive layer on an insulating substrate and patterning the first electrically conductive layer into a first wiring pattern;
- (2)(b) forming an insulating layer on the first wiring pattern and forming contact holes in the insulating layer;
- (2)(c) performing a surface treatment by carrying out plasma treatment on the interior of the contact holes and/or the surface of the insulating layer;
- (2)(d) forming a second electrically conductive layer on an insulating substrate and patterning the second electrically conductive layer into a second wiring pattern;
- and
- (2)(e) repeating the above-mentioned steps (b), (c), and (d) at least once.
