    摘要: An implantable neuronal prosthetic and method of manufacture thereof includes at least one elongated electrode shank adapted for arrangement in the brain having at least one electrode contact disposed on its surface and arranged to electrically couple with said brain. The at least one elongated electrode shank is formed form a single crystal cubic silicon carbide. An insulation layer of amorphous, polycrystalline, or single crystal silicon carbide is disposed over the elongated electrode shank; the insulation layer of amorphous, polycrystalline, or single crystal silicon carbide is removed from the at least one electrode contact. Signal control electronics are attached to the at least one elongated electrode shank and are in electrical communication with the at least one electrode contact. In an embodiment, a plurality of the at least one elongated electrode shanks are arranged into a matrix.

    摘要: A photon triggered RF radiator having separate sections to perform the eny storage and the energy radiation functions. The energy storage function is performed by at least one charging electrode positioned on the upper surface of a photoconductive dielectric substrate, whereas the energy radiation function is performed by a charging electrode positioned adjacent to the charging electrode on the upper surface of the substrate. The charging electrode and the radiating electrode are separated by a predetermined gap distance that is large enough to insure there is no surface flashover between the electrodes and small enough to insure the efficiency of energy discharge from the charging pad to the spiral antenna is maximized.
