Patent number: 11560304Abstract: A method for functionalizing a surface of a dielectric plate that is transparent to visible light—to be able to examine the dielectric plate using optical microscopy—includes depositing a negative film on the dielectric slide. The negative film comprises a polymerizable composition that polymerizes when exposed to an electron beam. The polymerizable composition is polymerized—by exposing the negative film to the electronic beam—at a set of points representing a preset pattern. Non-polymerized portions of the polymerizable composition are dissolved—to develop the negative film—forming a set of pads of polymerized portions of the polymerizable composition. Each pad corresponds to one point of the preset pattern. A metal film is disposed on the negative film, and the developed negative film is dissolved to define holes through the metal film. Each of the holes corresponds to a base of one pad of the set of pads.Type: GrantFiled: April 17, 2019Date of Patent: January 24, 2023Assignees: CENTRE NATIONAL DE LA RECHERCHE SCIENTIFIQUE, UNIVERSITÉ D'AIX-MARSEILLEInventors: Kheya Sengupta, Emmanuelle Benard, Igor Ozerov, Frédéric Bedu, Hervé Dallaporta
