Description

Within the CERN EP R&D programme and the AIDAinnova collaboration, innovative and scalable hybridization and module-integration concepts are pursued for pixel-detector applications in future colliders. Most interconnect processes require specific surface properties and topologies of the bonding pads. An in-house Electroless Nickel Gold (ENIG) plating process is therefore under development, which is performed on single-die level and can be adapted to a large range of pad geometries and bonding techniques. This contribution introduces the ENIG process and its optimisation and shows example plating results for dedicated test structures and functional ASICs and sensors.
