METHOD FOR PRODUCING AN ELECTRICALLY CONDUCTIVE STRUCTURE

A method produces a composite from a conductive structure, a carrier made of non-conductive carrier material made from thermosetting plastic, and at least one electronic component by laser radiation. The non-conductive carrier material having an additive, which is configured to subsequently form a catalytically active species in an electroless metallization bath by irradiation with the laser radiation. The method includes: forming the conductive structure being by irradiation using pulsed laser radiation having a pulse duration of less than 100 picoseconds and subsequent electroless metallization. A pulse repetition rate is set such that consecutive pulses of the pulsed laser radiation in an area of the additive to be activated or an additive area are diverted mutually overlapping onto the additive or the additive area.
