Abstract

A method for metallizing dielectrics includes applying a photosensitive dielectric to a substrate. The dielectric is then exposed to light through a mask, is seeded with a metal and is subjected to a temperature treatment. Afterwards, the dielectric is chemically metallized. Alternatively, the dielectric can be first be seeded with a metal after being applied to the substrate, and can then be exposed to light through a mask. Afterwards, excess seeding material is removed and the dielectric is chemically metallized.
