  • Drop pattern generation with edge weighting
    Patent number: 8512797
    Abstract: Imprint lithography may comprise generating a fluid map, generating a fluid drop pattern, and applying a fluid to a substrate according to the fluid drop pattern. The fluid drop pattern may be generated using edge weighting through one or more modified Lloyd's method iterations to result in surface features being substantially filled with the fluid during imprint.
