Abstract

Disclosed herein is a method of fabricating an antenna in which a flexible stamp is formed from a first wafer, the first wafer transferring a pattern to the flexible stamp, in which an antenna substrate is shaped into a three-dimensional contour with a second mold, in which the flexible stamp is positioned in the second mold to deform the flexible stamp into the three-dimensional contour, and in which a metallic layer on the flexible stamp is cold welded to create a set of antenna traces on the antenna substrate in accordance with the pattern. The antenna traces may then be electroplated.
