Abstract:
1. A method for the production of self-adjusting serial connections of thin layers, the method comprising applying electrically conductive conductor tracks onto a substrate, whereby the electrically conductive conductor tracks run essentially parallel to each other; and applying several deposition layers of conductive, semiconductive and/or insulating materials onto the substrate ( 10 ), whereby the application of the deposition layers is carried out at different angles of incidence relative to the surface of the substrate, characterized in that after applying the conductor tracks onto the substrate, at least: a first main layer deposition is carried out at a first angle of incidence α relative to the surface of the substrate, whereby a coating is created on tops and flanks of the conductor tracks that are exposed to deposition, and shaded areas are formed behind the conductor tracks, and these shaded areas are thus not exposed to any deposition; a second main layer deposition at a second angle of incidence β is carried out, wherein the angle β is 90° or different from 90°, wherein if angle β is different from 90°, the flanks of the conductor tracks are cleaned, so that only the tops and areas between the conductor tracks are coated; and a third main layer deposition at a third angle of incidence γ is carried out, and the angle γ is inverse to the angle α, whereby in order to form the first, second and third deposition layers, the flux direction of the applied material particles runs perpendicular to the orientation of the conductor tracks.
