摘要:
An electrical contact includes a body having a mating segment. At least a portion of the mating segment defines a first conductive element having a three-dimensional (3D) surface. A dielectric layer is formed directly on the 3D surface of the first conductive element in engagement with the 3D surface. A second conductive element is formed on the dielectric layer such that the dielectric layer extends between the first and second conductive elements. The first and second conductive elements and the dielectric layer form a capacitor.

A method of manufacturing an electrical conductor includes providing a substrate layer, depositing a surface layer on the substrate layer that has pores at least partially exposing the substrate layer, and forming graphene deposits in the pores. Optionally, the graphene deposits may be formed only in the pores. The graphene deposits may be formed along the exposed portions of the substrate layer. The graphene layers may be selectively deposited or may be deposited to cover an entire layer. Optionally, the forming of the graphene deposits may include processing the electrical conductor using a chemical vapor deposition process using an organic compound precursor and heat of sufficient temperature to facilitate graphene growth on the metal compound comprising the substrate layer.
摘要:
A contact assembly includes a conductive substrate, a composite layer, and a conductive layer. The conductive substrate is configured to form a conductive path of the electrical connector. The composite layer is engaged to the conductive substrate and includes a dielectric material with a conductive filler material dispersed within the dielectric material at a concentration that is lower than a percolation threshold concentration of the composite layer. The conductive layer is engaged to the composite layer. The conductive substrate, the composite layer, and the conductive layer form a capacitive element through which a signal propagation path between the conductive substrate and a mating contact that mates with the conductive layer passes.
