A method forms an air gap metal tip structure for (ESD) protection. The method forms an air chamber, from an upper substrate and a lower substate disposed below the upper substrate, within which a first metal tip and a second metal tip are disposed. The first and second metal tips are disposed along at least one horizontal axis parallel to the upper and lower substrates.

A layer of the mixture that contains polymer and conductive particles is applied over a first surface, when the mixture has a first viscosity that allows the conductive particles to rearrange within the layer. An electric field is applied over the layer, so that a number of the conductive particles are aligned with the field and thereafter the viscosity of the layer is changed to a second, higher viscosity, in order to mechanically stabilise the layer. This leads to a stable layer with enhanced and anisotropic conductivity.
