APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR DEPOSITING FUNCTIONAL BLOCKS

摘要

A guiding feature used to assist deposition of a functional block into a recessed region formed in a substrate. A template is used to create the guiding feature on a substrate. The template comprises a first feature configured to create a corresponding recessed region in a substrate and a second feature configured to form a guiding line on the substrate. The guiding line is continuous for a section of the substrate and located proximate to the recessed region. The guiding line configured to guide a functional block toward the recessed region during a fluidic self-assembly deposition process. The substrate can include an array, divided into rows and columns, of the recessed regions to receive a plurality of functional blocks and the template includes more than one of the first features configured to create such array of recessed regions in the substrate.
