A method forms a first active electronic layer, prints an array of pillars
on the first active electronic layer, dispenses a curable polymer over
the array of pillars, molds the curable polymer by contacting the curable
polymer with a mold structure to displace the curable polymer from upper
surfaces of the pillars, cures the curable polymer to produce a hardened
polymer, and removes the array of pillars to leave an array of holes in
the hardened polymer. Another method provides a substrate having selected
areas, prints an array of pillars on the substrate, dispenses a curable
polymer over the array of pillars, molds the curable polymer by
contacting the array of pillars with a mold structure to displace the
curable polymer from upper surfaces of the pillars, cures the curable
polymer to produce a hardened polymer, and removes the array of pillars
to leave an array of holes in the hardened polymer corresponding to the
selected areas. Another method forms a first active electronic layer on a
substrate, prints an array of conductive pillars on the active electronic
layer on a substrate, dispenses a curable polymer on the array of
conductive pillars, molds the curable polymer by contacting the array of
pillars with a mold structure to displace the curable polymer from the
upper surfaces of the conductive pillars, curing the curable polymer to
produce a hardened polymer, and forms a second active electronic layer on
the hardened polymer such that the second active electronic layer is in
electrical connection with the first active electronic layer through the
conductive pillars.
