摘要： Methods of forming electrically conductive interconnections and electrically interconnected substrates are described. In one implementation, a first substrate having an outer surface is provided and a layer of material is formed thereover. Openings are formed within the layer of material and conductive masses are formed within the openings. A second substrate having conductive interconnect surfaces is provided. The conductive interconnect surfaces are then contacted with the conductive masses and deformed thereby. In one aspect, the interconnect surfaces are deformed in part by portions of the layer of material proximate the conductive masses. In another aspect, the layer of material is removed and the interconnect surfaces are deformed by the conductive masses themselves.

摘要： A button-type battery has an anode, a cathode, and an electrolyte encased with two terminal housing members. The terminal housing members have respective peripheries that are crimped together to form a fluid-tight seal. An insulating gasket is provided between the peripheries to electrically insulate the two terminal housing members. A porous separator physically separates the anode and cathode and extends between the terminal housing member peripheries at least partially into the fluid-tight seal. According to one aspect, the separator overlaps the gasket in the seal. According to another aspect, the separator and gasket are formed of a single, integral piece of material, where the peripheral edge of the separator/gasket extend beyond the seal.
