Abstract
A method of can be used to generating a fluid droplet pattern for an imprint lithography process. A fluid dispense head can include a set of fluid dispense ports, wherein the fluid dispense ports are in a fixed arrangement. The method can include rotating the set of the fluid dispense ports to a rotation angle to change a fluid droplet pitch in a first direction; moving a substrate and the set of the fluid dispense ports relative to each other in a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction; and dispensing fluid droplets onto the substrate while moving the substrate and the set of the fluid dispense ports relative to each other. The method can be used in the formation of an electronic component within or over a semiconductor substrate. The apparatus can be configured to carry out the methods as described herein.
