Abstract

See full text

A method can be used to generate a fluid droplet pattern for an imprint lithography process using a fluid dispense system having fluid dispense ports. The method can include determining a fluid droplet pattern for dispensing a formable material onto a substrate; during a first pass, dispensing the formable material onto the substrate to form a first part of the fluid droplet pattern for an imprint field; offsetting the fluid dispense ports and substrate relative to each other in an offset direction; and during a second pass, dispensing the formable material onto the substrate to form a second part of the fluid droplet pattern for the imprint field. The method can be used to form a patterned layer over a semiconductor wafer in fabricating an electronic device. An apparatus can be configured to carry out the method.
