3D flexible multichannel neural probe array

چکیده
A 3D flexible multichannel microprobe array was designed, fabricated and tested. Since each probe had several recording pads, the probe array could be used to measure neural activity at various depths in the brain. They were batch fabricated with interconnections, using a specific folding process to fold the planar probe structures. This flexible probe array was inserted into a rat’s brain without fracturing and was successfully used to measure neural signals.

BACKGROUND A major challenge in the field of neural interfaces is to overcome the problem of poor stability of neuronal recordings, which impedes long-term studies of individual neurons in the brain. Conceivably, unstable recordings reflect relative movements between electrode and tissue. To address this challenge, we have developed a new ultra-flexible electrode array and evaluated its perform...

A multichannel Langmuir probe array driven by a single bias supply was constructed. For the probes to be used in harsh radio frequency ~rf! environments, the individual probe has a rf-compensation circuit. For simultaneously obtaining I – V curves from the probe array, shunt resistors were placed between the probe tips and the active terminal of the bias supply. The pickup signal due to the str...

In this paper, we propose a stacked convolutional and recurrent neural network (CRNN) with a 3D convolutional neural network (CNN) in the first layer for the multichannel sound event detection (SED) task. The 3D CNN enables the network to simultaneously learn the interand intra-channel features from the input multichannel audio. In order to evaluate the proposed method, multichannel audio datas...
متن کاملDesign and fabrication of a polyimide-based microelectrode array: application in neural recording and repeatable electrolytic lesion in rat brain.
The design and testing of a new microelectrode array, the NCTU (National Chiao Tung University) probe, was presented. Evaluation results showed it has good biocompatibility, high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR: the root mean square of background noise to the average peak-to-peak amplitude of spikes) during chronic neural recordings, and high reusability for electrolytic lesions. The probe was a fle...
