Patent ID: 8545741

Claim:
A method of manufacturing a microstructure, the method comprising the steps of: (a) facing the inner surface of a first substrate with the inner surface of a second substrate, wherein the first substrate has a first viscous composition spotted directly or indirectly on the inner surface of the first substrate at predetermined positions and the second substrate has a second viscous composition spotted directly or indirectly on the inner surface of the second substrate at predetermined positions; (b) moving the first substrate, the second substrate, or both so as to allow the first viscous composition and the second viscous composition to become in contact with each other; (c) moving the first substrate, the second substrate, or both so as to allow the first viscous composition and the second viscous composition to be elongated; (d) solidifying the elongated first and second viscous compositions; and (e) cutting the solidified first and second viscous compositions at predetermined positions between the first substrate and the second substrate to provide a microstructure.
