Abstract
The positioning of mesh side features in a stencil mask are controlled to produce a mask which possesses high structural integrity and which exhibits a low service life. Mesh side feature control also eliminates certain unnecessary design side channels and mesh side via openings. Mesh side feature placement at T-shaped design side junctions is also controlled to produce a more uniform distribution of material which is screened through the stencil mask.
