Sequential electric droplet lithography (EDL) was demonstrated on silicon dioxide to create a functional multiprotein array with minimum cross contamination. Each EDL cycle consists of charge writing on a dielectric substrate and subsequent electrostatic attachment of microdroplets containing the protein of interest to the charge pattern (see figure).
