Abstract

A process of shaping a thin metal film into a lead frame starts with preparing a thin metal film, an etchant effective against the thin metal film and a photoresist solution resistive to the etchant, followed by coating the entire surface of the thin metal film with the photoresist solution so as to form a multiple level structure having the thin metal film and a photoresist film, and a predetermined pattern is embossed on the multiple level structure so as to break slits in the photoresist film along the periphery of the predetermined pattern, then removing a part of the multiple level structure by using the etchant so that a hollow space is formed therein in the predetermined pattern.
