  • PATTERNING NON-PLANAR SURFACES
    Publication number: 20080038677
    Abstract: A pattern is formed on a non-planar surface by forming a layer of photoresist on a part having a surface comprising a non-planar surface area. A deformable mask is aligned over at least a portion of the non-planar surface area of the part such that the deformable mask substantially deforms in a manner corresponding to at least a portion of the non-planar surface area of the part. The photoresist on the part is exposed through the mask so as to transfer a desired pattern onto the part while the deformable mask is maintained in a deformed state.
