Abstract
Method for fabricating and inspecting small holes in a material are disclosed. The method includes directing light onto the material and through the holes formed in the material, and then collecting the light passing through the holes in the material onto a detector. The methods further include analyzing the light for properties of the holes, and modifying the process based these detected properties.

56. A method, comprising:
-
directing light onto a polymer film, the light having an intensity and a wavelength sufficient to form a plurality pores within the sheet;
forming a pore array within the sheet comprising a plurality of pores at locations where the light contacts a surface of the sheet, wherein the light passes through the plurality of pores;
detecting the light passing through the plurality of pores;
analyzing the detected light to determine if the plurality of pores meet a pore size and pore shape criterion; and
moving formulation through the pores to create an aerosol. - View Dependent Claims (57, 58, 59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68)
