Chronic in vivo stability assessment of carbon fiber microelectrode arrays.
OBJECTIVE Individual carbon fiber microelectrodes can record unit activity in both acute and semi-chronic (∼1 month) implants. Additionally, new methods have been developed to insert a 16 channel array of carbon fiber microelectrodes. Before assessing the in vivo long-term viability of these arrays, accelerated soak tests were carried out to determine the most stable site coating material. Next...
متن کاملMicroelectrode Arrays
The development of implantable devices which enable fully wireless transmission of brain signals, recorded by microelectrode arrays (MEA) as dynamical neural circuit information, is one important goal for advancing human neuroprostheses. Current brain sensing research for prostheses via first clinical trials is offering tantalizing glimpses for the future, even if these technologies are cumbers...
متن کاملVertically aligned carbon nanotubes for microelectrode arrays applications.
In this work a methodology to fabricate carbon nanotube based electrodes using plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition has been explored and defined. The final integrated microelectrode based devices should present specific properties that make them suitable for microelectrode arrays applications. The methodology studied has been focused on the preparation of highly regular and dense vertica...
متن کاملHydrophilic modification of neural microelectrode arrays based on multi-walled carbon nanotubes.
To decrease the impedance of microelectrode arrays, for neuroscience applications we have fabricated and tested MEA based on multi-walled carbon nanotubes. With decreasing physical size of a microelectrode, its impedance increases and charge-transfer capability decreases. To decrease the impedance, the effective surface area of the electrode must generally be increased. We explored the effect o...
متن کاملCarbonization-assisted integration of silica nanowires to photoresist-derived three-dimensional carbon microelectrode arrays.
We propose a novel technique of integrating silica nanowires to carbon microelectrode arrays on silicon substrates. The silica nanowires were grown on photoresist-derived three-dimensional carbon microelectrode arrays during carbonization of patterned photoresist in a tube furnace at 1000 °C under a gaseous environment of N(2) and H(2) in the presence of Cu catalyst, sputtered initially as a th...
