Abstract
A method of forming a polymer device including the steps of: (i) depositing on a substrate a solution comprising a polymer or oligomer and a crosslinking moiety, to form a layer; (ii) curing the layer formed in step (i) under conditions to form an insoluble crosslinked polymer, characterized in that the crosslinking moiety is present in step (i) in an amount in the range of from 0.05 to 5 mol % based on the total number of moles of repeat units of the polymer or oligomer and the crosslinking moiety in the solution.
