1. A method, comprising:
- dispensing ion-conducting particles on a substrate comprising an adhesive to which the ion-conducting particles adhere, wherein the ion-conducting particles conduct ions chosen from Li, Na, and combinations thereof;
overcoating the ion conducting particles with a polymer;
removing the substrate and the adhesive from the ion conducting particles; and
removing a polymer overburden on the ion conducting particles to form a device that includes;
(i) the polymer or a derivative thereof, and (ii) ion-conducting particles, wherein at least a portion of the ion-conducting particles extend through the polymer or its derivative.

8. A method, comprising:
-
(a) dispensing metal oxide lithium ion-conducting particles on an adhesive layer; (b) overcoating the ion conducting particles with a layer of a polymer selected from cyclo-olefins, poly-para-xylylenes, and benzocyclobutenes; (c) removing a polymer overburden on the ion conducting particles to form a lithium ion conducting membrane, wherein at least a portion of the ion conducting particles in the membrane have a first exposed surface projecting from a first side of the layer of the polymer and a second exposed surface projecting from an opposed second side of the layer of the polymer, wherein the exposed surfaces are free of the polymer; and (d) removing the adhesive layer from the ion conducting particles. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12)
