Abstract
There is disclosed a method for manufacturing a batch of sensors including providing a substrate which has a plurality of conductive tracks formed thereon; electrochemically depositing a first active sensing material layer over the substrate and the conductive tracks in a process in which the conductive tracks are part of a single electrical circuit; removing deposited active sensing material from predetermined portions of the substrate: and sub-dividing the substrate to produce a plurality of sensor units.
Claims14
A method for batch manufacturing sensor units, comprising:
- providing a substrate which has a plurality of conductive tracks formed thereon as part of a single electrical circuit;
- forming a first conducting polymer layer on the substrate;
- electrochemically depositing a second conducting polymer layer over the first conducting polymer layer to produce a substrate area in which the substrate and conductive tracks are completely overlaid with the first conducting polymer and the second conducting polymer;
- removing the deposited conducting polymers from predetermined portions of the substrate area;
- and
- sub-dividing the substrate area to produce a plurality of sensor units.
