Abstract
A coiled circuit device is produced by forming a circuit layer on a substrate. Optional insulator layers may be disposed above and below the circuit layer. The circuit layer, which may be memory, control, or other circuitry, is released from the substrate such that it coils into a dense, coiled device. A stressed coiling layer may be included which effects coiling when the circuit layer is released.
