Abstract: A battery can include an anode and a cathode enclosed within a battery housing, a feedthrough terminal coupled to one of the anode or the cathode and extending through a lid of the battery housing, and a glass insulator between the feedthrough terminal and the lid, wherein an outside surface of the lid and an outer surface of the feedthrough terminal and an outer surface of the glass insulator is covered by a first layer of an electrically insulative coating.

Abstract: An electrode for use with an implantable medical device includes a titanium surface, and a titanium nitride layer formed on at least a portion of the titanium surface. At least some titanium of the portion of the titanium surface is removed from the titanium surface prior to forming the titanium nitride layer. The textured titanium nitride layer is formed by reacting nitrogen proximate to the portion of the titanium surface with titanium at the portion of the titanium surface.

Abstract: A method of preparing an electrode for use with an implantable medical device, the electrode including a titanium surface, the method including: maintaining a nitrogen gas environment proximate to the titanium surface, delivering energy to a portion of the titanium surface, modifying the portion of the titanium surface with the energy delivered to the titanium surface, and forming titanium nitride by reacting titanium at the portion of the titanium surface with nitrogen from the nitrogen gas environment. Modifying includes increasing a surface area of the portion of the titanium surface, and removing titanium from the portion of the titanium surface. The titanium nitride is formed at the portion of the titanium surface where titanium has been removed.

Abstract: A method of metallizing a ceramic substrate includes depositing a barrier layer onto the substrate, depositing a tie layer onto the barrier layer, and depositing a metal layer onto the tie layer to metallize the substrate. The barrier layer may include an oxygen rich material, a nitrogen rich material, or a carbon rich material.
