Drawings are typically provided by the customer showing the design for a single
element and all critical dimensions. If the product is to be provided as an
intermediate, then a layout or list of layout constraints is also needed. If
labile reagents will be required, then handling specifications and final
performance specifications are also required.

During early development, it is feasible to have several sensor designs printed
on the same sheet. This affords the customer an opportunity to evaluate several
designs during initial testing and to help identify good candidate designs for
further development. |

Currently the smallest features that CT is capable of printing consistently are
estimated to be 0.010" (0.25 mm) for a single entity or 0.015" (0.38 mm)
lines on .015" gaps (0.38 mm). Using laser techniques as small as .0002"
(0.005 mm) are possible. |
