Abstract:Unipolar source drain voltage pulses of GaN/AlGaN-High Electron Mobility Transistors (HEMT) were used for stimulation of cultured neuronal networks obtained from embryonic rat cerebral cortex. The HEMT sensor was grown by metal organic vapour phase epitaxy on 2 inch sapphire substrate consisting of 10 single HEMTs concentrically arranged around the wafer center. Electrolytic reactions between the HEMT sensor surface and the culture medium were not detected by using cyclic voltammetry. During voltage pulses and… Show more
“…However, the strength of the recorded signal was only in the range of tens to hundreds of microvolts [10][11][12]. These devices employed a reference electrode as part of the measurement set up.…”
