1. A method for producing a glass substrate, said method comprising:

  • (a) providing a glass sheet suitable for laser scribing,(b) positioning a laser entrance element adjacent the beginning of at least one scribe line and a laser exit element positioned adjacent the ending of at least one scribe line,(c) scribing at least one laser scribe line in said glass sheet with a laser, whereby heat generated from said laser is absorbed by said laser entrance element and said laser exit element,(d) singulating said scribed glass at the formed said at least one laser scribe line to produce at least one laser scribed glass substrate, whereby each of said laser scribed glass substrates comprises straight and smooth ends substantially free of edge protrusions; and

    producing a biopolymeric array on said at least one of said laser scribed glass substrates.
