The Contact Electroplating Technology (CET) enables metallization of isolated electronic patterns by electroplating, without sacrificing the substrate real-estate for establishing direct contact to the power supply. The best way to form or deposit isolated microscopic and nano features in electronics is by electroplating if possible. The current state-of-the-art technology is not able to provide that. Contact Electroplating Technology (CET) (US Patent #10,184,189) patterns this efficiently, including PWBs and Flexible Electronics.
CET is a disruptive technology that interjects between the power supply and the electroplated micro and nano electronic structures. By using this proprietary process, we can contact isolated patterned electronic features with up to 5 million contacts per square inch. Those contacts allow electroplating of PWBs and Flexible Circuits within the electroplating solution. Following a high-speed xeroxing or patterning of isolated flexible structures with a layer of negligible thickness and resistance as high as several kiloohms cm, CET enables upgrading of the patterns by depositing desired thickness of pure metal, up to 10 microns. Completely isolated electronic interconnects with spacing as low as 25 microns. Completely isolated electronic interconnects with spacing as low as 25 microns are uniformly electroplated within seconds.
CET is the latest technology to be developed by ECSI Fibrotools. Currently we have identified three major categories where CET will be wildly successful. Working with innovators like you, we can discover even more potential applications.
