Abstract :
The present work describes the use of silver as a molecular adhesion layer between two layers of printed circuit board .This layer serves as a conductive media between two layers of the double sided Printed Circuit Board. Traditional copper has low conductivity and the usage of silver as a specialised metal facilitate to use the same PCB in the case of space craft applications.When pulse plating is used for plating in the plated through holes technique (PTH) nanostructured grain size is obtained. Silver serves as a metal against corrosion.
