Abstract
Disclosed herein are systems and methods for using microlens arrays for parallel micropatterning of features. A method includes emitting a laser beam providing the laser beam to a lenslet array including a plurality of lenslets, and generating, from the laser beam, a plurality of laser sub-beams using the lenslet array. Each one of the plurality of laser sub-beams is generated by a corresponding one of the plurality of lenslets. Each lenslet of the plurality of lenslets has the same shape.
