Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide methods and materials for making analyte sensors having a plurality of layered elements such as amperometric glucose sensors that are used by diabetic individuals to monitor blood sugar concentrations. Embodiments of the invention utilize plasma deposition technologies to form thin films of hexamethyldisiloxane useful in such sensors. Sensors that incorporate the thin film compositions formed by these processes exhibit a number of desirable characteristics.
