Title:
A SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR THE HOLOGRAPHIC DEPOSITION OF MATERIAL
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2002088848
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for hologram induced deposition of material for use in the formation of three-dimensional structures is described. An electromagnetic energy source may be directed in the form of a hologram to a process chamber with a medium. The medium may be an organometallic gaseous medium. The hologram may induce the medium to form a solid structure associated with the shape of the hologram. The pressure of the gaseous medium may range from subatmospheric to greater than (100 psi=<6,89.10<5>Pa>). Alternatively, the medium may be a liquid polymer, a solid particle, or others. The hologram may be formed with an LCD panel or other means. Further, a holographic movie may be projected into one or more mediums to form complex three-dimensional structures.
