Fabrication of Unique Chemical Patterns and Concentration Gradients with Visible Light
A modular
and general method based on a photomediated ATRA reaction
for the spatially controlled functionalization of surfaces with visible
light is reported. The ability to control reactivity with light intensity
combined with the orthogonality of ATRA chemistry allows well-defined
chemically differentiated monolayers and complex nonlinear chemical
concentration gradients to be easily prepared. Use of light to mediate
these reactions permits spatial regulation and the generation of unique,
multifunctional chemical gradients
