In one or more embodiments, micro light guides are constructed that include a wall and one or more features extending from or protruding into one or more surfaces of the wall. The microstructure light guide is defined by a mold and formed as a single article with uniform internal stresses. In at least some embodiments, the mold that defines the microstructure light guide employs pixelated mold portions that enable selective temperature adjustment of discrete regions of the mold portions to form the microstructure light guide.
