BIOENG 2811 - MICROFABRICATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF NEURAL INTERFACE DEVICESMinimum Credits: 3 Maximum Credits: 3 This course is designed to provide graduate students an advanced understanding of a) photolithography process for microfabrication of neural devices (with clean room training and hands-on experience), b) the biocompatibility considerations for the materials used for the fabrications and the device configuration, and c) the standard electrochemical and biocompatibility characterization of the microelectrodes for neural applications (including both simulating and recording electrodes, both peripheral and cortical neural interface). The students will learn in detail the fundamentals of lithography processes and MEMS in neurotechnology applications (in parallel with hands on clean room lab experience at the Nano Fabrication and Characterization Facility (NFCF)). Materials science for neural prosthesis (on both insulating and conducting materials) and contemporary and future directions of the nano/micro neural devices will also be reviewed.
