In terms of surface modification and functionalization, covalently coupled photoinitiators and subsequent photopolymerizations are employed to provide a huge variety of surface properties, such as wettability, stimulus responsive features, antifouling behavior, protein binding, friction control, drug delivery, and many more. For this purpose, numerous type I and type II photoinitiators or other photosensitive moieties have been attached to different substrates so far. In our studies, a convenient and straightforward synthetic protocol to prepare a novel germanium-based photoinitiator (bromo-tris(2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl)germane) in good yields was developed. The immobilization of this photoinitiator at the surface of silicon wafers and quartz plates was evidenced by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Employing visible-light-triggered surface-initiated polymerization of different functional monomers, including acrylamide, perfluorodecyl acrylate, and fluorescein-o-acrylate, surfaces with various features such as hydrophilic/hydrophobic and fluorescent properties were prepared. This was also achieved in a spatially resolved manner. The polymer layers were characterized by contact angle measurements, UV–vis/fluorescence spectroscopy, spectroscopic ellipsometry, and XPS. The thicknesses of the surface grafted polymer layers ranged between 10 and 126 nm.",
