Abstract The present invention relates to a method for coating micro electromechanical devices to provide coatings on such devices that are relatively corrosion-resistant and suitable for in vivo implantation, such as within a human body. Coating an implantable device, such as micro electromechanical devices, is highly desirable to protect the implantable device from corrosion. A coating method includes depositing, preferably by plasma glow discharge, a reactant monomer on at least one surface of an implantable device, preferably at ambient temperature. The method will likely decrease the manufacturing time required for assembling such devices because completely assembled devices can be coated.
