METHOD OF FORMING ARRAYS OF POLYMERS

摘要

A method of forming a plurality of polymers having diverse monomer sequences on a substrate, the substrate including a plurality of reaction regions surrounded by a constraining region, the reaction regions being more wettable by one or more monomer solutions than the constraining region, the method comprising sequentially placing the one more monomer solutions in a first reaction region to form a first polymer having a first monomer sequence, the monomer solutions be confined to the first reaction region by the constraining region; and sequentially placing the one or more monomer solutions in a second reaction region to form a second polymer having a second monomer sequence, the monomer solutions being confined to the first reaction region by the constraining region.
