Method and Apparatus for Creating and Placing a Micro Message

摘要

Silicon processing technology is used to generate an array of micro messages. These micro messages can contain at least one stick figure, or at least one word, or at least one stick figure and at least one word, or at least one stick figure and a grid mark, or at least one word and a grid mark, or at least one stick figure and at least one word and a grid mark. Grid marks are associated with the micro message and used to identify the X and Y Cartesian coordinates of the message. A plurality of conductive traces is used to form the micro messages. Each micro message can be completely encapsulated in silicon dioxide or at least one conductive trace can be connected to one of the tubs.
