[mems-talk] Plating Au to a Ni seed layer

[P.E.M. Kuijpers]

Hi all,

I want to electroplate a 3µm thick Au layer onto a 10µm thick Ni layer. 
This Ni layer was also electroplated.
What kind of pre-treatment should I use, to obtain a good adhesion between 
the Au and Ni layer??

Thanks in advance.
