Study of bending reliability and electrical properties of platinum lines on flexible polyimide substrates

Nico de Rooij, Danick Briand, Jérôme Courbat, Francisco Molina Lopez

We have experimentally studied the variation in electrical resistance of flexible platinum lines patterned on polyimide foil when they are subjected to circular bending constraints. The lines were patterned by means of standard photolithography and sputter ...

Reversed processing of dry photoresist: application to the encapsulation of chemical sensors

Nico de Rooij, Danick Briand, Jérôme Courbat

A generic method for the reverse processing of dry photoresist is proposed. The technique is based on the lamination of pre-patterned polymeric structures on the pre-existing devices. The concept is illustrated with the encapsulation at the foil level of g ...
