  • Patent number: 11869813
    Abstract: A method of real time leveling control between a superstrate and a substrate is provided. A contact force model indicating a relationship between a total contact force for planarization of a formable material between the superstrate and the substrate and a force component of the total contact force along each of a plurality peripheral axes is identified. A set point force required for performing the planarization is determined. Each force component is calculated based on the contact force model. The planarization is performed by applying each force component along a corresponding axis of the plurality of axes. The contact force model is identified based on a parallel condition between two contacting surfaces of a superstrate chuck for retaining the superstrate and a stack of the superstrate, the substrate, and formable material between the superstrate and the substrate.

  • Publication number: 20230095200
    Abstract: A method of shaping a surface comprises dispensing formable material onto a substrate held by a substrate chuck, contacting a plate held by a plate chuck assembly with the formable material to form a film, curing the film to form a cured layer, initiating a separation front between the cured layer and the plate, tilting the plate chuck assembly and/or the substrate chuck in a direction away from the initial separation point, thereby propagating the separation front, applying a force to the plate chuck assembly and/or the substrate chuck away from the other while maintaining or increasing the tilt, until the separation front completely propagates around the cured layer, and continuing to apply the force, until the plate does not contact the cured layer. The plate chuck assembly includes a flexible portion with a central opening, and a cavity formed by the flexible portion. The plate is held by the flexible portion.
