Abstract:
A method of making a shaped multilayer device comprising:modifying a first layer of tape cast material by removing sections therefrom to form a plurality of petals such that said first layer of tape cast material is formable into a nonlinear dependent shape, wherein said nonlinear dependent shape is capable of being a hemisphere;forming said first layer of tape cast material into said nonlinear dependent shape by joining together adjacent sides of each of said plurality of petals to form the nonlinear dependent shape, said first layer having a top side and a bottom side opposite said top side;laminating at least one additional layer of tape cast material onto the top side of said first layer of material to form a laminated device, said at least one additional layer of tape cast material having been formed into a substantially similar shape as said nonlinear dependent shape before said laminating;sintering said laminated device;metalizing said laminated device; andpoling said laminated device.
