Patent ID: 8007704

Claim:
A method of making an electrostatically actuated device component for an electrostatically actuated device, comprising: providing a multilayered structure comprising a first layer comprising a first polymer; a second layer comprising a conductive material, the second layer disposed over the first layer; and a third layer comprising a dielectric material, the third layer disposed over the second layer, the third layer having a surface roughness (Rq) of greater than about 100 angstroms to less than about 1000 angstroms; positioning the multilayered structure within an injection mold such that when a second polymer is injected into the injection mold, the second polymer engages the first polymer of the first layer but does not significantly engage the third layer; and injecting the second polymer into the injection mold and forming a bond between the first polymer of the first layer and the second polymer to produce an electrostatically actuated device component that has the third layer of the multilayered structure being exposed in order to selectively contact an electrostatically actuated diaphragm of an electrostatically actuated device.
