Abstract
Described examples include a substrate made of a first material and having a surface. First and second nozzles respectively dispense a first solvent paste including electrically conductive nanoparticles and a second solvent paste including non-conductive nanoparticles, while moving over the surface of the substrate. The first and second nozzles additively deposit a uniform layer including sequential and contiguous zones, alternating between the first solvent paste and the second solvent paste. Energy is applied to sinter together the nanoparticles and diffuse the nanoparticles into the substrate. The sintered nanoparticles form a layer composed of an alternating sequence of electrically conductive zones contiguous with electrically non-conductive zones.
