French term or phrase: masque quand le support est un simple lame aimanté
about a new biochip targeting dna molecules; text explaining the positionning technique
"Le positionnement très précis des sondes sur le support peut être obtenu de diverses manières, soit par l’utilisation d’un masque quand le support est une simple lame aimantée, soit par le fonctionnement d’un micro-circuit quand le support présente un magnétisme électro-induit"

masque = template? (i think so)
support = matrix? (i THINK so, but could do with back-up)
lame = plate??
