THIN-FILM ELECTRIC INITIATOR: I. FABRICATION OF Cu/Ni BRIDGES,

Abstract

The production of a low-cost thin-film electric initiator for fuze detonators was shown to be feasible; early experiments used chemically deposited nickel-phosphorus alloy as the resistor bridge and copper as the conductor. A polyimide film is the best plastic substrate found to date. Bridges having resistances of 6 to 7 ohms, produced on polyimide film, were reproducible and had good stability. (Author)
