Fabricating double-sided electrodynamic screen films

A method for fabricating an electrode film, comprising:

• providing a transparent film of dielectric material having first and second surfaces;
• using a flexographic printing system to print a first electrode pattern and a second electrode pattern onto the first surface of the transparent film using a catalytic ink, wherein the first electrode pattern includes a first set of parallel electrodes connected to a first bus and the second electrode pattern includes a second set of parallel electrodes connected to a second bus, and wherein elements of the first electrode pattern do not cross over elements of the second electrode pattern;
• using the flexographic printing system to print a third electrode pattern onto the second surface of the transparent film using the catalytic ink, wherein the third electrode pattern includes a third set of parallel electrodes connected to a third bus, and wherein the first, second and third sets of parallel electrodes are parallel with each other and are arranged in an interlaced pattern;
• and
• electrolessly plating a conductive metallic material onto the catalytic ink such that the elements of the first, second and third electrode patterns become conductive;
• wherein the first, second and third buses are connected to respective sources of electrical power supplying respective waveforms to generate a time-varying electric field pattern above a surface of the electrode film.
