  • Abstract
    Surface tension self-assembly has been shown to be a versatile technique for accurate, massparallel assembly of 3D microengineered structures. It is particularly suited for construction of devices which require features to be patterned and set up out of the wafer plane, such as opto-MEMS devices. However, analogous applications exist for beam processing elements in microengineered electron and ion optical systems
