Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to implantable medical devices. According to an exemplary embodiment, a method for forming an electrode on an implantable medical device (IMD), comprises forming a nonconductive body comprising a well having a bottom surface and at least one side surface extending from the bottom surface. The method further comprises forming a conduit through the bottom surface and inserting the nonconductive body into an opening in an external surface of the IMD. The method also comprises depositing conductive material into the well and coupling the conductive material to a circuit of the IMD via the conduit through the bottom surface of the well.
