<p>A method of manufacturing metallic droplets (9), comprising the following steps: (a) providing a substrate (1) which is substantially transparent to radiation of wavelength μ, one face (1a) of the substrate (1) being provided with a metallic layer (3) which is partitioned into an array of lands (5); (b) directing a laser beam (7) of wavelength μ through the substrate (1) onto a land (5), thereby causing rapid melting of the land (5) and its detachment from the substrate (1) in the form of a molten droplet (9). In a preferential embodiment of the method, the molten droplet (9) is 'shot' onto a target substrate (21) before solidifying.</p> |
