A method and apparatus for imprinting substrates. One embodiment of the invention provides a microtool having a sidewall on one or both plates. The sidewalls help prevent excess dielectric material from forming on the microtool plates or the substrate. For one embodiment of the invention, each microtool plate has a sidewall formed thereon. Upon application of pressure, the sidewalls contact each other, thus reducing or eliminating flexing of the microtool plates. |
