ELECTRODE FOR MEASURING NEURAL SIGNAL INCLUDING SINGLE-CRYSTALLINE AU NANOWIRE

摘要

The present invention relates to a neural electrode for measuring a neural signal which includes a single-crystalline Au nanowire which is inserted into a neural cell or a tissue including a neural cell to receive an electrical signal from the neural cell or the tissue including a neural cell; and a metal tip which supports by the Au nanowire to be fixed, transfers the electrical signal to the outside, and is coated with an insulator which prevents the exposure of surface. The neural electrode can be miniaturized to have good mechanical properties, high electric conductivity and spatial resolution.
