A method and apparatus for performing chemical and biochemical reactions in solution using in situ generated photo-products as reagent or co-reagent. Specifically, the method and apparatus have applications in parallel synthesis of molecular sequence arrays on solid surfaces. There is provided an apparatus for performing light controlled reactions. One of the applications of the apparatus is to control reactions on a solid surface containing a plurality of isolated reaction sites, such as wells (the reactor). Light patterns for effecting the reactions are generated using a computer and a digital optical projector (the optical module). Patterned light is projected onto specific sites on the reactor, where light controlled reactions occur. A preferred application provides the in situ generation of chemical/biochemical reagents that are used in the subsequent chemical and biochemical reactions in certain selected sites among the many possible sites present. One aspect of the claimed invention is to change solution pH by photo-generation of acid or bases in a controlled fashion. Another preferred application is the parallel synthesis of biopolymers, such as oligonucleotides and peptides, wherein the method and apparatus are used for selective deprotection or coupling reactions. |

Techniques for fabrication of small-scale metallic structures such as microinductors, microtransformers and stents are described. A chemically active agent such as a catalyst is applied from an applicator in a pattern to an exterior surface of an article, metal is deposited according to the pattern and optionally, removed from the substrate. Where the substrate is cylindrical, the pattern can serve as a stent. Alternatively, a pattern of a self-assembled monolayer can be printed on a surface, which pattern can dictate metal plating or etching resulting in a patterned metal structure that can be cylindrical. In another embodiment, a structure is patterned on a surface that serves as a phase-modulating pattern or amplitude-modulating pattern. The article subsequently is exposed to radiation that can induce a change in refractive index within the article, and the phase-modulating or amplitude-modulating pattern results in different indices of refraction being created in different portions of the article. By this technique, a grating can be written into a core of an optical fiber. |

A mixture of a high molecular weight EPDM rubber with a low molecular weight (liquid) EPDM rubber provides a highly useful laser-ablatable flexographic printing plate precursor formulation. This formulation is sensitive to infrared radiation by the incorporation of an IR absorbing compound such as a carbon black. The inclusion of the liquid EPDM rubber avoids the need for plasticizers such as process oils during manufacturing, and provides improved image sensitivity, print quality, and run length. Both flexographic printing plates and printing sleeves can be made using the mixture of EPDM rubbers. |

A process for patterning thick film electrically functional patterns using a photosensitive polymer layer. A tacky photosensitive layer (104) is applied onto a substrate surface. The photosensitive layer (104) is imaged with a pattern (106) using actinic radiation, the exposed areas (107) of the photosensitive layer become hardened and non-tacky. A subsequent application of a thick film composition sheet (101 on 102) will cause the thick film (101) to adhere to the remaining tacky areas (104). Upon peeling the sheet (102), a thick film print pattern (101) will be produced. This step is followed by a processing profile prescribed by the thick film composition used which results in a pattern having electrically functional properties. The invention also extends to a process wherein a thick film composition is recovered from a used sheet. |

The technical field of the invention is the production of three-dimensional shapable galvanic structures that can be formed on substrates which still owe their possibilities and limitations in the prior art to structuring through photosensitive resist and subsequent galvanic deposition. The invention aims to abandon the use of resist structures resulting from incident light as a pattern for galvanic structures and to make it possible to create galvanic structures which can be freely formed with edge surfaces that need no longer necessarily run vertically or nearly vertically. The invention proposes a production process for metal structures (20, 20a, 20b) that can be formed three-dimensionally (x, y, h) for micromechanics (40), in which at least a conductive layer (plating base; 11, 21, 23) is applied to the substrate; one of the conductive layers (11, 21, 23) is laterally (x, y) structured, a plurality of laterally spaced isolated island areas (12i, 22i, i = 1... n) being thus formed; one of the island areas as a core area (11k, 23k) is cathodically (-) switched during galvanization and the other island areas are not electrically connected (n.c.). |
