Implantable active high resolution electrodes for real-time field potential mapping. Elettrodi attivi impiantabili ad alta risoluzione per mappatura in tempo reale del potenziale di campo

In this work a novel device for neural field potential measurement and mapping is presented, analysed and tested. The design layout and strutture of the C-100-A active semiconductor implantable needles are presented. The devices are thoroughly simulated and characterized, and possible issues and critical points are spotted. Solution strategies are developed and first in-vivo measurement results are finally presented
