摘要:
Polymer electronics devices having reliable electrical contacts and methods of their fabrication are described. A surface of a conductive layer is modified, and a layer of polymer is formed on a modified surface of the conductive layer to create an electrical contact between the conductive layer and the layer of polymer. The electrical contact is created without adding an adhesion promoter. Modifying the surface of the conductive layer increases surface area of conductive layer and therefore improves polymer to conductive layer adhesion while preserving an original chemistry of the surface of the conductive layer. The modified surface of the conductive layer may be formed by mechanical roughening, chemical roughening, or both. The conductive layer forming the electrical contact to the polymer includes a noble metal. The polymer may be spin coated over the modified surface of the conductive layer.
