Conductive patterns and methods thereof

Abstract

Provided is an electrically-conductive assembly and methods thereof. The electrically-conductive assembly includes a release liner having a major surface, a conductive layer extending across a portion of the major surface according to a pre-determined shape, a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer disposed between the release liner and the conductive layer. The pressure-sensitive adhesive layer can be mutually coextensive with the conductive layer. An insulating layer is disposed on the conductive layer and the release liner, such that the conductive layer and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer are captured between the insulating layer and the major surface of the release liner. The provided assembly can sustain an electrical current to carry signals or distribute power in layered composite structures.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
