Abstract

A system and method dispense resin between substrates. A top substrate device holds a top substrate concave up. A bottom substrate device holds a bottom substrate concave down. A resin dispensing device has a needle and dispenses a trajectory of resin defined by an arc having a tangent that touches a tangent of a concave-up-shaped top substrate. The top substrate device may be arranged to include a dampening mechanism to cause a dampened release of the top substrate. Moreover, the top substrate device may be arranged to hold a top substrate so that the top substrate has a continuous concave-up shape extending from a center portion of the top substrate to its outer diameter, and the bottom substrate device may be arranged to hold a bottom substrate so that the bottom substrate has a continuous concave-down shape extending from a center portion of the bottom substrate to its outer diameter.
