Abstract:
The present disclosure discusses a system and methods for a deep brain stimulation lead. More particularly, the disclosure discusses a stimulation lead that includes one or more silicon based barrier layers within a MEMS film. The silicon based barrier layers can improve device reliability and durability. The silicon based barrier layers can also improve adhesion between the layers of the MEMS film.

Claim (Index 11):
A method to form a neurological lead, comprising:\n forming a film comprising:\n a plurality of tabs distributed longitudinally along the film; \n a plurality of ribbon cables, each of the plurality of ribbon cables coupled to two of the plurality of tabs distributed longitudinally along the film; \n a plurality of electrodes, at least one of the plurality of electrodes disposed on each of the plurality of tabs distributed longitudinally along the film; and \n a plurality of contacts, a respective one of the plurality of contacts disposed on each of the plurality of ribbon cables; \n heating the film; and molding the film into a cylinder, the cylinder defining a lumen.
