1. A biomolecular detector, comprising:

  • (a) a substrate having a surface portion;

    (b) a linking layer on said surface portion; and

    (c) a polymer layer formed on said linking layer by a process of surface-initiated polymerization of monomeric units thereon, with each of said monomeric units comprising a monomer core group having at least one protein-resistant head group coupled thereto, to thereby form a brush molecule on said surface portion;

    said brush molecule comprising a stem formed from the polymerization of said monomer core groups, and a plurality of branches formed from said head group projecting from said stem.
