A method of patterning a thin film, comprising: depositing an intermediate, radiation sensitive, layer on a substrate; depositing the thin film on the intermediate layer, before or after deposition of the thin film: exposing the intermediate layer to patterned radiation in order to initiate a chemical reaction therein; and removing patterned radiation-defined parts of the intermediate layer and corresponding thin film, to leave patterned thin film and patterned intermediate layer on the substrate.

Method of patterning a thin film

The present invention provides a method and apparatus for the production of nanoparticles using a continuous flow miniaturised reaction vessel. In particular, the invention provides a method for preparing nanoparticles by a direct one-stage process.

Preparation of nanoparticles

A microfabricated detection system, comprising: a substrate chip; a chamber defined by the substrate chip to which a fluid sample is in use delivered; and at least one detector comprising at least one light-emitting diode including an organic semi-conductor element for emitting light into the chamber and at least one photocell including an organic semiconductor element for receiving light from the chamber.
