1. A method of manufacturing a device for brain stimulation, the method comprising:

  • forming a lead body having a distal end section;

    coupling at least one pre-electrode to the distal end section of the lead body, the pre-electrode defining a divider with a plurality of partitioning arms and having a plurality of fixing lumens;

    removing portions of the pre-electrode aligned with the partitioning arms to divide the pre-electrode into a plurality of segmented electrodes, each of the plurality of segmented electrodes defining at least one of the plurality of fixing lumens at least partially disposed through the segmented electrode; and

    introducing a material through the plurality of fixing lumens to couple the plurality of segmented electrodes to the lead body.
