More than 2 decades of active investigations in the field of polymer brushes have revealed continuous and grow- ing interest in different aspects of synthesis, properties, and applications of tethered polymers. In this article, we report on our recent advances in brush synthesis. The method we explore is based on the combination of 'grafting through' approach with the functional anchoring polymer layer tech- nique. We introduce the photoinitiated 'version' of synthesis of polyacrylamide brushes. Both homogeneous depositions and laterally resolved gradient and patterned samples have been prepared by this technique. The results for flat polymer brushes, that is, thickness, stability, and contact angles, are complimented by kinetic parameters as deducted from analysis of gradient samples obtained by the method of a sliding mask. A microscopic shadow mask is used to fabricate patterned brushes. The microscopically patterned brushes demonstrate high lateral resolution limited by optical phenomena. Finally, we have performed a viability assaying of neuronal cell on both flat and patterned brushes. Sufficient restraint of cell ad- hesion on polyacrylamide photobrushes and very low cytotox- icity of the brush components (polymer brush itself, anchoring layer) make photografting a promising platform to control cell deposition and surface localization.
