Abstract
Systems and methods to manufacture a collimator include deposition of a first layer of material in a first pattern, the first pattern comprising a first plurality of substantially parallel lines oriented in a first direction, and deposition of a second layer of material in a second pattern directly upon the first layer of material, the second pattern comprising a second plurality of substantially parallel lines oriented in a second direction different from the first direction. An area bounded by a first pair of the first plurality of substantially parallel lines and a second pair of the second plurality of substantially parallel lines intersecting the first pair defines a septum of the collimator.
