Molded polymer comprising silicone and at least one metal trace and a process of manufacturing the same
The invention is a method of making a flexible electrode array, comprising a silicone containing body, a metal trace layer and an electrode pad on the surface, including the steps of irradiating a surface area of a molded silicone containing layer yielding traces with the light beam from a pulsed ultraviolet laser source; immersing said irradiated molded silicone layer for inducing the deposit of metal ions to form metal traces; applying a silicone containing layer on the silicone containing layer and the metal traces; irradiating the surface for drilling holes in the molded silicone containing layer; and immersing the irradiated molded silicone layer for inducing the deposit of metal ions to form metal electrode pads.
