Multi-layer micro-wire substrate structure

摘要

A multi-layer micro-wire structure includes a substrate having a substrate edge. A first layer is formed over the substrate extending to a first layer edge. One or more first micro-channels are imprinted in the first layer, at least one imprinted first micro-channel having a micro-wire forming at least a portion of an exposed first connection pad in the first layer. A second layer is formed over the first layer extending to a second layer edge. One or more second micro-channels are imprinted in the second layer, at least one imprinted second micro-channel having a micro-wire forming at least a portion of an exposed second connection pad in the second layer. The second-layer edge is farther from the substrate edge than the first-layer edge for at least a portion of the second-layer edge so that the first connection pads are exposed through the second layer.

1. A multi-layer micro-wire structure, comprising:
a substrate having a substrate edge; a first layer formed over the substrate extending to a first layer edge; one or more first micro-channels imprinted in the first layer, at least one imprinted first micro-channel having a first micro-wire forming at least a portion of an exposed first connection pad in the first layer; a second layer formed over the first layer extending to a second layer edge; one or more second micro-channels imprinted in the second layer, at least one imprinted second micro-channel having a second micro-wire that is electrically separate from the first micro-wire forming at least a portion of an exposed second connection pad in the second layer, the second connection pad spatially separate from the first connection pad; and wherein the first connection pad is exposed in a first location over the substrate, the second connection pad is exposed in a second location different from the first location over the substrate, and the second-layer edge is farther from the substrate edge than the first-layer edge for at least a portion of the second-layer edge so that the first connection pads are exposed through the second layer and the first and second connection pads can be separately electrically connected to separate wires in one or more electrical connectors.
