摘要:
Embodiments described herein generally relate to a brush, a method of forming a brush, and a structure embodied in a machine readable medium used in a design process are provided. The brush includes a body and a channel configured to deliver a cleaning liquid through holes in the body. The method forms the brush using 3D printing. The structure provides details for making the brush. The disclosure herein allows a method of forming a brush that does not require the removal of active porogen.

3. The brush of claim 2, wherein the first polymer material has a third body region, a third body porosity of the third body region is greater than the first body porosity, and the third body porosity is less than the second body porosity.
4. The brush of claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of brushing elements disposed on the body, the brushing elements comprising a second polymer material.
5. The brush of claim 4, wherein the brushing elements comprise a plurality of element holes having a first element region, wherein a first element porosity of the first element region is greater than about 70%, and the channel is fluidly coupled to the plurality of element holes.
6. A structure embodied in a machine readable medium used in a design process, the structure comprising: a brush, comprising:
a body comprising a first polymer material comprising a plurality of body holes, the plurality of body holes having a first body region, wherein a first body porosity of the first body region is greater than about 70%; and a channel disposed in the body, the channel fluidly coupled to the plurality of body holes.
7. The structure of claim 6, wherein the structure resides on storage medium as a data format used for an exchange of layout data.
8. The structure of claim 6, wherein the structure includes at least one of test data files, characterization data, verification data, or design specifications.
9. The structure of claim 6, wherein the plurality of body holes has a second body region, and a second body porosity of the second body region is greater than the first body porosity.
10. The structure of claim 6, wherein the brush further comprises a plurality of brushing elements disposed on the body, the brushing elements comprising a second polymer material.
11. A method of forming a brush, comprising: forming a body of the brush using a three-dimensional (3D) printing process, the body comprising a first solid material comprising a plurality of body holes, the plurality of body holes having a first body region, wherein a first body porosity of the first body region is greater than about 70%; and forming a channel in the body of the brush using a 3D printing process, the channel fluidly coupled to the body plurality of holes.
12. The method of claim 11 , wherein the 3D printing process comprises: exposing a surface of a printing liquid to treatment emission, such that at least a portion of the printing liquid is converted to a solid material; and raising a support member coupled to the solid material while a time-varying treatment emission is applied to the surface.
13. The method of claim 12, wherein the plurality of body holes has a second body region, and a second body porosity of the second body region is greater than the first body porosity.
