Problems solved by technology

[0009] Although a very capable technology, LDS also has some disadvantages; specialized thermoplastic material properties do not meet those of traditional polymeric materials, but are typically more brittle or brittle
Another disadvantage is the overall cost; specialized thermoplastic resins cost more than traditional thermoplastic resins, and the laser and coating processes are expensive
The capital cost of LDS production also represents a significant barrier to entry into the technology

Embodiment Construction

[0047] The present disclosure relates, in one aspect, to an article of manufacture, including, in one variation, a conductive element (eg, an antenna) formed onto a substrate. An exemplary antenna embodiment includes a plurality of connected conductive traces. Traces may extend across planar or non-planar or three-dimensional substrates. According to the present disclosure, a plurality of traces are formed in one exemplary embodiment by moving a dispensing or deposition head nozzle over a substrate to form each trace.

[0048] In some implementations, the present disclosure enables the deposition of conductive traces (e.g., antennas) having a thickness, such as approximately at least at a specified frequency (e.g., 1 GHz (gigahertz)), with a single pass or stroke of the nozzle. Factor (n) of the measured penetration depth δ. For example, n is equal to at least 2 (ie, the thickness is at least 2×δ) in some variations, and equal to at least 3 (3×δ) in other variations. .

Abstract

A conductive element, such as an antenna, for use in electronic devices, including mobile devices such as cellular phones, smart phones, personal digital assistants (PDAs), notebook computers, and wireless tablets. In one exemplary aspect, the present disclosure relates to conductive antennas formed using deposition conductive fluids and methods and apparatus for forming conductive antennas. In one embodiment, a "thick" antenna element can be formed in one pass of the dispensing head or nozzle, thereby reducing manufacturing cost and increasing manufacturing efficiency.
