A method for manufacturing a printed wiring board includes forming an electroless plating layer on a solder resist layer such that the electroless plating layer has a film thickness in the range of 0.05 μm to 0.70 μm, forming plating resist such that the plating resist has openings exposing portions of the electroless plating layer, applying electrolytic plating such that metal posts are formed in the openings of the plating resist, removing the plating resist, and etching the electroless plating layer exposed from the metal posts. The solder resist layer is formed such that the solder resist layer has openings exposing portions of the outermost conductor layer, the electroless plating layer is formed on the portions of the outermost conductor layer, and the plating resist is formed such that the openings of the plating resist expose the portions of the electroless plating layer formed in the openings of the solder resist layer.

A method for manufacturing a flexible circuit electrode array, comprising: a) depositing a metal trace layer containing a base coating layer, a conducting layer and a top coating layer on the insulator polymer base layer; b) applying a layer of photoresist on the metal trace layer and patterning the metal trace layer and forming metal traces on the insulator polymer base layer; c) activating the insulator polymer base layer and depositing a top insulator polymer layer and forming one single insulating polymer layer with the base insulator polymer layer; d) applying a thin metal layer and a layer of photoresist on the surface of the insulator polymer layer and selective etching the insulator layer and the top coating layer to obtain at least one via; and e) filling the via with electrode material. A layer of polymer is laid down. A layer of metal is applied to the polymer and patterned to create electrodes and leads for those electrodes. A second layer of polymer is applied over the metal layer and patterned to leave openings for the electrodes, or openings are created later by means such as laser ablation. Hence the array and its supply cable are formed of a single body. Alternatively, multiple alternating layers of metal and polymer may be applied to obtain more metal traces within a given width. The method provides an excellent adhesion between the polymer base layer and the polymer top layer and insulation of the trace metals and electrodes.

A bulk substrate for stretchable electronics. The bulk substrate is manufactured with a process that forms a soft-elastic region of the bulk substrate. The soft-elastic region includes a strain capacity of greater than or equal to 25% and a first Young's modulus below 10% of a maximum local modulus of the bulk substrate. The process also forms a stiff-elastic region of the bulk substrate. The stiff-elastic region includes a strain capacity of less than or equal to 5% and a second Young's modulus greater than 10% of the maximum local modulus of the bulk substrate.
