Abstract

A method for fabricating a metallic pattern on a substrate is disclosed. The method consists of depositing an adhesive and/or plating base material on a substrate upon which a narrow self-supporting border of photoresist is applied. An anodic layer is then deposited and the photoresist removed. The adhesive and plating base material is etched in those areas previously covered by the photoresist and fresh photoresist applied to encapsulate those areas of the anodic layer which form the final pattern of interest. The unwanted anodic material is then etched and the photoresist removed.
