Abstract
Methods for forming bonded assemblies using metal inverse opal and cap structures are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method for forming a bonded assembly includes positioning a substrate against a polymer support that is porous, depositing a metal onto and within the polymer support, disposing a cap layer to the polymer support opposite of the substrate to form a bottom electrode, and removing the polymer support from between the substrate and the cap layer to form a metal inverse opal structure disposed therebetween.
