Abstract
Local deposition of copper on aluminum was attempted by the successive processes of anodizing, laser irradiation, and electroless plating. Aluminum specimens covered with anodic oxide films were immersed in

, and diluted NaOH solutions, and irradiated with a pulsed yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG) laser. The time variation in the rest potential of the specimens was followed during laser irradiation by a potentiometer, and the change of the surface composition by laser irradiation was examined by X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). After the laser irradiation, copper electroless plating was carried out in
