Abstract

See full text

A method for forming electrically conductive patterns to provide an electrically conductive path on a polymer tube is provided. The method includes the steps of establishing a polymer tube and mounting such in a displaceable and rotatable mounting that is adapted to provide both axial and rotational motion. This is followed by forming at least one channel having a predetermined pattern in the polymer tube with a focused energy beam, the channel then being filled with an electrically conductive paste or electrically conductive slurry material. The polymer tube is then heated to temperatures less than 250° C. to cure the electrically conductive paste or electrically conductive slurry material. The electrically conductive paste or electrically conductive slurry material is then covered with a polymer layer.
