Micropatterning

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Micropatterning is the art of miniaturisation. Especially used for electronics it has recently become a standard in biomaterials engineering and for fundamental research on cellular biology by mean of soft lithography. It generally uses photolithography methods but many techniques have been developed.

Aerosol micropatterning for biomaterials uses spray microscopic characteristics to obtain semi-random patterns particularly well adapted for biomaterials.
