Pros are that it's faster and uses less energy and no complex optics system. Cons are that they have to replace the masks fairly regularly because they degrade with each imprint made. This probably also means that yields are lower towards the end of the life of the mask. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 1 point 10 months ago Huge QC fail rates.
