Abstract

Abstract A process for producing multi-layer printed circuit panels using additive techniques for forming the conductors within each layer. The conductors are built up by metal deposition through photosensitive masks which are subsequently removed and replaced with fluid dielectric curable to a solid form. Additional layers are formed successively by repeating the process.
