The process is suitable for patterning and the products can be used as seeds for electroplating of thicker overlayers.copper seed layerX-ray synthesismicro-patterningelectroless platingX-ray-induced Cu deposition and patterning on insulators at room temperaturetext::journal::journal article::research article
