Article: Ultra-sharp metal and nanotube-based probes for applications in scanning microscopy and neural recording.
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: This paper discusses several methods for manufacturing ultra-sharp probes, with applications geared toward, but not limited to, scanning microscopy (STM, AFM) and intra-cellular recordings of neural signals. We present recipes for making tungsten, platinum/iridium alloy, and nanotube fibril tips. Electrical isolation methods using Parylene-C or PMMA are described.Journal of Applied Physics 04/2012; 111(7):74703-747036. · 2.17 Impact Factor
