    摘要: The present disclosure provides an electrode device and methods of making and using the same. The electrode device includes a base layer, an intermediate layer, and a capping layer. Both the intermediate layer and the capping layer are located over the base layer. The intermediate layer includes a carbon-based electrode. The base layer and the capping layer each include silicon carbide. The capping layer partially surrounds the carbon-based electrode. The method of using the electrode device as an implantable neural interface involves providing the electrode device, electrically coupling the carbon-based electrode to neural tissue of a patient, and electrically coupling the carbon-based electrode to at least one of recording electronics and stimulating electronics. The recording electronics are configured to electrically record neural signals from the neural tissue, whereas the stimulating electronics are configured to electrically stimulate the neural tissue.
