Electrochemical Roughening and Carbon Nanotube Coating of Tetrodes for Chronic Single-Unit Recording

Abstract: Recording from single neurons in the brain for long periods of time has been a central goal in both basic neuroscience and translational neurology, in order to understand mechanisms underlying brain processes such as learning and to understand the pathogenesis of neurodynamic disease states 1 . Recent advances in materials engineering, digital signal acquisition, and analysis algorithms have brought us closer to achieving this goal, and the possibility has gathered much public attention 2,3 . However, it remai… Show more

“…A preferred coating time of 60 s was established. To further test the performance of electrodes fabricated in this manner, a narrow CV scan was carried out to obtain capacitive data relevant to the recordings made when monitoring in vivo neuronal activity where the detected potential is usually tiny and within the range of −1.5 and +1.5 mV. , …”

“…To further test the performance of electrodes fabricated in this manner, a narrow CV scan was carried out to obtain capacitive data relevant to the recordings made when monitoring in vivo neuronal activity where the detected potential is usually tiny and within the range of −1.5 and +1.5 mV. 37,38 To ensure complete coverage of the full range of likely potentials to be encountered in vivo, a CV scan was carried out between −100 and + 100 mV versus SCE and tested with various scan rates of 25, 50, 100, and 200 mV s −1 for continuous five cycles. The resulting voltammograms are shown in Figure 6a, revealing capacitive behavior within this potential window with a nearly rectangle-shaped cyclic voltammogram without any discernible redox peaks.…”

“…The mechanical mismatch between the tetrode's body and the brain tissue can be mitigated by using more bendable materials, such as platinum−iridium instead of tungsten wires. 22 However, at the tetrode tip, the interface between the rigid electrode metal and the soft brain tissue remains biologically incompatible, limiting the ability to monitor neural activity over extended periods. 1,19 To maintain the benefits of controllable measurement, one solution is to coat the tetrode interface with a material that is soft, biocompatible, and conductive.…”
