“…Ceramic substrates have attracted much research interest thanks to their chemical and environmental stability, low cost, and good mechanical and thermal properties. In order to overcome the major drawback of their insulating nature [ 1 ], the electroless deposition (ED) was proposed as a promising approach as it is a facile, low cost, and efficient process allowing the synthesis of conductive, homogenous, continuous, and compact films irrespective of the geometry and nature of the substrate, without the need for external electricity [ 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 ].…”
