Abstract
A multielectrode probe structure is described in which several thin-film metal electrodes are defined on the outer surface of a glass micropipette using electron-beam lithography. Electrode geometries are controlled to within one micron, resulting in electrode recording characteristics which are extremely well matched. Recording sites are 5 , um wide rings spaced 100 , um apart in depth. Analysis and characterization show the structure to be capable of accurately recording tissue potentials with a minimum of tissue damage. Use of these probes in current source-density (CSD) analysis of extraceliular current flow is described.
