Surface Chemistry Chemical functionalization and patterning of a large‐area graphene sheet on a solid substrate holds promise for many applications in optoelectrical and bioanalytical devices, neuroelectronics, and energy conversion and storage. In their Communication on page 568 ff. , Jungkyu K. Lee, Yang‐Gyun Kim, Insung S. Choi et al. report on the direct, spatioselective immobilization of proteins and cells on pristine single‐layered graphene sheets. The patterning of a large‐area pristine graphene sheet on Si/SiO 2 was achieved by aryl azide‐based photografting with the conventional UV lithographic technique and surface‐initiated, atom transfer radical polymerization of oligo(ethylene glycol) methacrylate (see the Inside Back Cover).
