Abstract

Deterioration and damage to insulator materials in an interconnection structure having vertical connections due to exposure to heat during bonding of lamina is avoided by performing diffusion bonding of metal pads at plated through holes (PTH) at temperatures below the melting points of conductive material in the bond. Diffusion bonding is achieved during time periods required for processing (e.g. curing or drying) of insulating materials in the laminated structure.
