Abstract: A switch and a relay include a contact with a smooth contacting surface. A side surface of a fixed contact faces a side surface of a movable contact. The fixed contact has an insulating layer and a base layer stacked on a fixed contact substrate, and a first conductive layer formed thereon through electrolytic plating. The side surface of the first conductive layer that faces the movable contact becomes the fixed contact (contacting surface). The movable contact has an insulating layer and a base layer stacked on the movable contact substrate, and a movable contact formed thereon through electrolytic plating. A side surface of a second conductive layer that faces the fixed contact becomes the movable contact (contacting surface). The fixed contact and the movable contact have surfaces that contact the side surfaces of the mold portion when growing the first and second conductive layers through electrolytic plating.

Abstract: A digital lithography system including a droplet source (printhead) for selectively ejecting liquid droplets of a phase-change masking material, and an imaging system for capturing (generating) image data representing printed features formed by the ejected liquid droplets. The system also includes a digital control system that detects defects in the printed features, for example, by comparing the image data with stored image data. The digital control system then modifies the printed feature to correct the defect, for example, by moving the printhead over the defect and causing the printhead to eject droplets onto the defect's location. In one embodiment, a single-printhead secondary printer operates in conjunction with a multi-printhead main printer to correct defects.
