Abstract

Disclosed is a method and a device for photolithographic production of oligonucleotides on two-dimensional matrices for the production of so-called DNA, PNA or protein chips characterized in that a dynamically controlled liquid crystal mask is used as a photolithographic mask. The invention also relates to a device for implementing said method. In the device according to the invention, the DNA or PNA chip (4) is placed in the processing station (9) and provided with the chemicals required for reaction from the reagent storage (11). The actual exposure station is composed of the light source (1) and the LCD mask (2). The remaining components described, i.e. the polarizer (3), the focussing (7) and the interlock (8), serve to optically process the light. All functions are controlled by the computer (10), especially, the LCD mask (12) is correspondingly controlled.
