“…The ability to micropattern polymeric materials with predesigned surface structures is of great significance in a wide range of applications including sensors, , tissue engineering, − lab-on-a-chip (LoC) devices, and biofouling. , A large variety of micropatterning strategies have been developed based on soft lithography, − holography, , spatial light modulator (SLM), inkjet printing, − direct laser interference patterning (DLIP), − and micro- and nanoprinting techniques. − Among these technologies, interference holography is a facile, inexpensive, and maskless technology to generate periodic structures in a photoresist layer. , Typically, a laser beam is split into two beams with identical linear polarizations from which an interference pattern is created with a pitch determined by the angle between two interfering laser beams . In the past, both negative and positive photoresist materials were employed extensively in interference holography to generate the microstructures in isotropic monomers and polymers and etching procedures are commonly employed to develop the surface relief structures. ,− For instance, Netti et al reported an effective and inexpensive technique to fabricate switchable holographic patterns in a light-sensitive azobenzene-based polymer which is used to guide cell adhesion and orientation.…”
