Photolithographic synthesis of high-density DNA probe arrays: Challenges and opportunities
Abstract
The continual need for increased manufacturing capacity in the production of GeneChip™ DNA probe arrays, and the expanding use of these arrays into new areas of application such as molecular medicine, has stimulated the development of new chemistries and production methods with higher efficiency and resolution. For current production methods based on contact photolithography, modifications in substrate materials and photoactivated synthesis reagents have provided significant improvements in array performance and information content (≥4×106 sequences∕cm2). An alternative next-generation manufacturing process is also in development, which utilizes photoacid generating polymer films, and automated projection lithography systems. This process has the ability to fabricate arrays with 1 micron feature pitch and smaller, providing an unprecedented sequence density of 108∕cm2 and greater.

Photomask arrays have proven to generate high oligonucleotide densities but rely on a series of bespoke photolithographic masks for each set of desired sequences.
“To this end, photomask arrays have proven to generate high oligonucleotide densities;34 however, this technique relies on a series of bespoke photolithographic masks to synthesize a defined set of sequences, that is, masks must be created for each set of desired sequences.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
