Adaptive Nanotopography Sculpting

摘要

Adaptive nanotopography sculpting may be used to alter nanotopography and roughness without altering the nominal shape of a surface. Generally, adaptive nanotopography sculpting provides a surface having desired shape characteristics. Topography of a first surface is mapped to provide a density map. The density map is evaluated to provide a drop pattern for dispensing polymerizable material on the first surface. The polymerizable material is solidified and etched to provide a second surface having the desired shape characteristics.
