Abstract :
Conventional micro needle array electrode has some defects. Such as a multi-step expensive fabrication process and low mechanical properties of material. This paper proposes flexible polymer-based micro needle array electrode which solves the problems of the conventional one. The feasibility and the possibility of fabricated electrode are verified by experimental result. As a future works, the attempt will be performed to figure out optimal parameters for the electrode.
