1. A method for affixing functional sites to the surface of a solid substrate, comprising:

  • (a) contacting said solid substrate with a derivatizaton reagent, said reagent having a substrate attaching group and a reactive site, to covalently bind said substrate attaching group to said substrate and thereby form a derivatized substrate having reactive sites; and

    (b) contacting said derivatized substrate with a mixture comprising linking molecules and diluent molecules, each of said linking molecules and diluent molecules having reactive groups capable of covalently binding to said reactive sites and said linking molecules alone further having a functional site for synthesis initiation, wherein said linking molecules and said diluent molecules are different and have different reactive properties and the ratio of said linking molecules to said diluent molecules in said mixture is selected to control the functional site density on said surface, to thereby bind said linking molecules and said diluent molecules to said substrate in accordance with said ratio.
