A method of making a biosensor is provided. The biosensor includes an
electrically conductive material on a base and electrode patterns formed
on the base, the patterns having different feature sizes. The conductive
material is partially removed from the base using broad field laser
ablation so that less than 90% of the conductive material remains on the
base and that the electrode pattern has an edge extending between two
points. A standard deviation of the edge from a line extending between
two points is less than about 6 .mu.m.
