Abstract
Methods of curing a deformation in a substrate are provided. In some embodiments, the method includes identifying one or more areas on the substrate with deformation. The method further includes printing a first film on a first area of a surface of the substrate via inkjet printing, the first film being a material that polymerizes and contracts when cured. The method includes printing a second film on a second area of the surface of the substrate via inkjet printing, the second film being a material that polymerizes and contracts when cured. The method further includes curing the first film and the second film to induce a bend in the substrate. In some embodiments, the method includes inkjet printing a third film and a fourth film on the surface of the substrate.
