In this paper, we present an ultraflexible tactile sensor, in a piezo-eletricoxide-semiconductor FET configuration, composed by a poly[vinylidenefluoride-co-trifluoroethylene] capacitor with an embedded readout circuitry, based on nMOS polysilicon electronics, integrated directly on polyimide. The ultraflexible device is designed according to...

Electrocorticography (ECoG) is becoming a common tool for clinical applications, such as preparing patients for epilepsy surgery or localizing tumor boundaries, as it successfully balances invasiveness and information quality. Clinical ECoG arrays use millimeter-scale electrodes and centimeter-scale pitch and cannot precisely map neural...

The correct human brain function is dependent on the activity of non-neuronal cells called astrocytes. The bioelectrical properties of astrocytes in vitro do not closely resemble those displayed in vivo and the former are incapable of generating action potential; thus, reliable approaches in vitro for noninvasive electrophysiological recording...
