✦ Synopsis

A solvent‐free strategy offering a fast, economical, and clean approach to integrate polypeptide materials into micrometer‐scale devices is presented. The dimensions and compositions can be controlled in both the lateral and vertical directions. The Figure shows a surface‐grafted pattern composed of PMLG (poly(γ‐methyl‐L‐glutamate)) and PMLG‐b‐PBLG, (B indicates benzyl instead of methyl).
