Abstract
An electrode structure and its method of manufacture are disclosed. The disclosed electrode structures may be manufactured by depositing a first release layer on a first carrier substrate. A first protective layer may be deposited on a surface of the first release layer and a first electroactive material layer may then be deposited on the first protective layer.

- depositing a first protective layer on the surface of the first release layer;
- depositing a first electroactive material layer on the first protective layer;
- and
- removing the first carrier substrate from the first release layer, wherein at least a portion of the first release layer remains on the first protective layer.
An electrode structure comprising:
- a first release layer comprising one or more of the following materials:
- polyimide with a hexafluoropropylene coating;
- siliconized polyester films, metallized polyester films, polybenzimidazoles, polybenzoxazoles, ethylene-acrylic acid copolymers, acrylate based polymers, polyvinylpyrrolidone-polyvinylimidazole copolymers, polyacrylonitriles, styrene-acrylonitriles, thermoplastic polyurethane polymers, polysulfone-polyalkylene oxide copolymers, benzophenone-modified polysulfone polymers, polyvinylpyrrolidone-polyvinylactetate copolymers, and combinations thereof;
