Abstract
Provided are methods of making a long-term implantable electronic device, and related implantable devices, including by providing a substrate having a first encapsulation layer that covers at least a portion of the substrate, the first encapsulation layer having a receiving surface; providing one or more electronic devices on the first encapsulation layer receiving surface; and removing at least a portion of the substrate from the first encapsulation layer; thereby making the long-term implantable electronic device. Further desirable properties, including device lifetime increases during use in environments that are challenging for sensitive electronic device components, are achieved through the use of additional layers such as longevity-extending layers and/or ion-barrier layers in combination with an encapsulation layer.
