Thin poly(methylmethacrylate) films doped by or covalently attached to disperse Red 1 acrylate (DR1) were patterned by laser scanning and simultaneous sample movement in confocal microscope. In both cases, periodical structure due to Marangoni effect is created. Modified polymers surfaces were analyzed by FTIR spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and atomic force microscopy. After first stage of patterning, second stage with sample movement in perpendicular direction was applied. Depending on the method of DR1 dotation fishnet structure is obtained or pattern structure disappears. In the latter case, reversibility of pattern formation and erasure by laser scanning was studied.
