Boning up on patterning: Patterned calcium carbonate films with dimensions of 200–400 μm were obtained using the photolithographic properties of a polysilane-based ABA block copolymer, PHEMA-PMPS-PHEMA. These patterns may serve as a 2D model system for CaCO3 biomaterials in which both the CaCO3 resorption by osteoclasts and the calcium phosphate deposition by osteoblasts can be monitored using optical microscopy.
