Abstract

A method of forming an anisoptropic electrical connection between conductive elements (22, 24) having an oxide layer (28) is disclosed. The method comprises the use of an adhesive (30) including carbon fibres (32) and metallic particles (34). On the application of pressure, the carbon fibres (32) penetrate the oxide layer (28), whilst the metallic particles (34) deform such that a good electrical connection is made between overlying elements (22, 24).
