Abstract :
This paper reports the successful fabrication and testing of all-diamond micro-electrode-arrays (MEAs) for use in neural recording and chemical detection applications using standard electrochemical methods. The MEAs have been tested through in vivo neural recordings. Also, electrochemical probes are reported using diamond as working and reference electrodes, achieving a potential window of about 4 V.
