System and method for RMP printing

Abstract

Patterns such as micro-patterns can be created on a surface using a resonant microcavity phosphor display, such as may be used with a cathode ray tube (RMP-CRT). An image can be processed by an image processor as a series of signals and provided to the resonant microcavity phosphor display or RMP-CRT, such as through a control box or control panel. The RMP-CRT scans an electron beam over a photo-sensitive material according to the series of signals. This electron beam can expose any photosensitive material on the surface so as to create a pattern or representation of the image in the photo-sensitive material. This process can be used in applications such as offset printing, as well as printing circuit board components, photoresist-covered substrates, photosensitive biological molecules, photosensitive chemical compounds, bioanalysis chips, and ink-sensitive plates.
