Abstract
A system and method for providing via-hole filling for microelectronic interconnections, is disclosed. Gallium metal is melted and mixed with a measured amount of copper and nickel, thereby creating a gallium alloy. Via holes are drilled within a substrate and filled with the gallium alloy. Excess gallium alloy is removed from the substrate. The substrate, having the filled via-holes therein, is then cured within the temperature range of room temperature to approximately 200 degrees Celsius. The gallium alloy may also be used for printing interconnect lines on a board surface.
