Abstract

A process for forming an anti-oxidant metal layer on an electronic device comprises the steps of providing a substrate; forming a conductive metal layer on the substrate; forming a first photoresist layer on the conductive metal layer; patterning the first photoresist layer to form apertures and first grooves; forming a connecting member having a top surface and a lateral surface in the aperture and the first groove; removing the first photoresist layer to reveal the top surface and the lateral surface; forming a second photoresist layer on the conductive metal layer; patterning the second photoresist layer to form apertures and second grooves; forming an anti-oxidant metal layer in aperture and second groove, the anti-oxidant metal layer covers the top surface and the lateral surface of the connecting member; and removing the second photoresist layer to reveal the anti-oxidant metal layer and the conductive metal layer.
