Abstract
The application relates to methods of manufacture of improved optical containment structures. The invention relates to arrays of zero-mode waveguide structures comprising nanoscale apertures having non-reflective coatings on their walls. The methods provide for selectively coating the walls of the zero mode waveguides, allowing for selective functionalization of the bases.
