Abstract
Provided is an electrodeposited copper foil having high smoothness and exhibiting high flexibility (particularly, high flexibility after annealing at 180° C. for 1 hour) suitable for a flexible substrate. This electrodeposited copper foil has an Rz of 0.1 to 2.0 μm on at least one surface. In cross-sectional analysis by EBSD, a proportion of an area occupied by copper crystal grains satisfying the following conditions relative to an area of an observation field occupied by copper crystal grains is 63% or more. The conditions are as follows: i) (101) orientation; ii) an aspect ratio of 0.500 or less; iii) |sin θ| of 0.001 to 0.707, where θ (°) is an angle between a normal line of an electrode surface of the electrodeposited copper foil and a major axis of the copper crystal grain; and iv) when the crystal is elliptically approximated, a length of a minor axis of 0.38 μm or smaller.
