Abstract
A device for insolating micrometric areas in a photosensitive layer and a method for producing patterns in such a layer. The method is characterized in that the layer is subjected to an atmosphere containing a transparent liquid that does not wet the photosensitive material, in order to produce on this layer a monolayer of micro-droplets (121), the layer of photosensitive material is insolated through the monolayer of micro-droplets (121) in order to selectively print the areas of exposure (122) of the layer, the micro-droplets (121) are removed, and the layer of photosensitive material is developed in order to form said patterns in accordance with the areas of exposure.
