摘要:
In the present invention a device for sensing and/or actuation purposes is presented in which microstructures (20) comprising shafts (2) with different functionality and dimensions can be inserted in a modular way. That way out-of-plane connectivity, mechanical clamping between the microstructures (20) and a substrate (1) of the device, and electrical connection between electrodes (5) on the microstructures (20) and the substrate (1) can be realized. Also connections to external circuitry can be realised. Also microfluidic channels (10) in the microstructures (20) can be connected to external equipment. Also a method to fabricate and assemble the device is provided.

摘要:
A probe for brain recording or stimulation and a method for fabricating the same, the probe comprising one or more shanks having a same orientation, wherein each of said shanks has a first side and a second side opposed to said first side and comprises at least one recording and/or stimulating site on said first side and a fin protruding perpendicularly from said second side and running on at least a part of the length of said shank along said same orientation.
摘要:
The present invention is related to a method for sharpening the tip of a microprobe, in particular a neural probe (2) or an array (1) of neuroprobes (2) having a common base portion (3). The probes have a constant thickness and a chisel-shaped tip portion (5). The probes are attached to the slanted side (12) of a wedge-shaped carrier (10), with the probe tips (5) placed in close proximity to the edge (13) of the carrier, preferably extending over said edge. The base (11) of the carrier is then subjected to a grinding step, possibly followed by a polishing step, so that the probe tips of the probes are ground to form a sharp pointed tip shape (101).
