Abstract
In the manufacture of a quantum cell, multi-finger jigs are used to hold precision masks flat during a photolithographic procedure and or to apply force uniformly over a bonding area during an anodic or other direct bonding procedure. The fingers of a jig are flexible that they can bend sufficiently independently of each other that one finger can accommodate a non-uniformity of a surface to be contacted by the jig so that other fingers remain in contact with other areas of the surface. The fingers can be defined by slits orthogonal to a perimeter of the jig.
