The invention provides a method for improving
laser activation selective metallization flatness, which comprises the following steps of: before
laser activation, covering a static
water layer on the surface of a workpiece or a sample plate to be activated, and covering transparent glass to inhibit water surface fluctuation. The surface of the selective metallization
composite material capable of being activated by
laser is covered with the horizontal hydrostatic layer and the transparent glass, so that an activated area with the
surface flatness superior to that in air can be activated on the
composite material containing the laser sensitizer by laser, and chemical
copper plating with a good effect can be carried out on the activated area. The flat and compact
metal layer is obtained by covering the
composite material base material with the horizontal static
water layer. Compared with a traditional air medium
processing method, the method has the advantages that laser parameters which can only process a
rough surface with a seriously fluctuated activated area in the traditional air medium form a flat activated area during
underwater processing, the laser parameters have excellent plating capacity after repeated activation, and the obtained plating layer is very excellent in thickness and strength. The method has the advantages of low cost, convenience in manufacturing, easiness in large-scale use and excellent industrial application value.
