Microlithographic techniques for laser assisted fabrication of bioelectronic devices

Microlithographic techniques are described for the fabrication of removable stencils to be used in micropatterning by laser deposition of organic and biological matter. Patterned layers are shown together with same atomic force microscope preliminary characterization. Also, a lithographically fabricated micron size glucose biosenser is shown, together with first assays of its performance. (C) 1996 American Institute of Physics.
