Abstract
By using an electroless metallization bath to which a stabilizer is added which suppresses the cathodic partial reaction, pyramid-shaped bumps (53) can be grown on the bond pads of semiconductor devices without lateral overgrowth of the coating layer 3. The angle of inclination a is a function of the concentration of the stabilizer.
