Additively Manufactured 3D Micro-bioelectrodes for Enhanced Bioelectrocatalytic Operation.

ABSTRACT: The drive toward miniaturization of enzyme-based bioelectronics established a need for three-dimensional (3D) microstructured electrodes, which are difficult to implement using conventional manufacturing processes. Additive manufacturing coupled with electroless metal plating enables the production of 3D conductive microarchitectures with high surface area for potential applications in such devices. However, interfacial delamination between the metal layer and the polymer structure is a major reliability concern, which leads to device performance degradation and eventually device failure. This work demonstrates a method to produce a highly conductive and robust metal layer on a 3D printed polymer microstructure with strong adhesion by introducing an interfacial adhesion layer.
