Abstract
A multi-level circuit structure is provided which includes a plurality of overlying substrates, each having at least one conductive core. A plurality of imprinted depressions are formed in each substrate, each depression having a convex surface and a concave surface. Dielectric coatings are utilized to provide insulation between adjacent substrates and by selectively placing a conductive mass between selected overlying imprinted depressions an electrical connection may be formed between adjacent imprinted depressions wherein selected portions of one substrate may be electrically coupled to selected portions of a second substrate.
