High density electrocorticography (ECoG)-based microelectrode arrays (MEAs) are fabricated to timely record the neural activities to provide the fundamental understanding in neuroscience and biomedical engineering. This paper aims to introduce a device-based concept and wafer-scale fabrication process for MEAs. Flexible and biocompatible polyimide is applied on MEAs to bear all possible stress and strain. Detailed fabrication key techniques, including surface treatment, polyimide stability measurement, evaporation process, and curing conditions, have been discussed thoroughly. Moreover, the fabricated polyimide-based MEAs are surface-mounted on well-packaged printed circuit boards (PCBs) via a slot-type connector without any additional wire bonding to make the signal recording process easier. An absence seizure was recorded during the in vivo test, which shows the availability of signal recording based on the presented MEAs. The proposed MEAs could be remained at the skull, while the connector and PCBs can be disassembled apart. Therefore, the testing sample will get less suffering. To verify the robustness of the fabricated MEAs, the impedance properties were characterized using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The measured results indicate an average impedance of 12.3 ± 0.675 kΩ at 1 kHz. In total, 10 groups of MEAs were sample tested, and over 90% of the total 60 channels per 1-MEAs operated efficiently.

During the last decade, optogenetics has become an essential tool for neuroscience research due to its unrivaled feature of cell-type-specific neuromodulation. There have been several technological advances in light delivery devices. Among them, the combination of optogenetics and electrophysiology provides an opportunity for facilitating optogenetic approaches. In this study, a novel design of an optrode array was proposed for realizing optical modulation and electrophysiological recording. A 4 × 4 optrode array and five-channel recording electrodes were assembled as a disposable part, while a reusable part comprised an LED (light-emitting diode) source and a power line. After the characterization of the intensity of the light delivered at the fiber tips, in vivo animal experiment was performed with transgenic mice expressing channelrhodopsin, showing the effectiveness of optical activation and neural recording.
