Signi?cant progress has been made in the development of neural
prostheses for restoration of human functions and improvement of
the quality of life. Biomedical engineers and neuroscientists
around the world are working to improve the design and performance
of existing devices and to develop novel devices for arti?cial
vision, arti?cial limbs, and brain-machine interfaces. This book,
Implantable Neural Prostheses 2: Techniques and Engineering
Approaches, is part two of a two-volume sequence that describes
state-of-the-art advances in techniques associated with implantable
neural prosthetic devices. The techniques covered include
biocompatibility and biostability, hermetic packaging,
electrochemical techniques for neural stimulation applications,
novel electrode materials and testing, thin-?lm ?exible
microelectrode arrays, in situ char- terization of microelectrode
arrays, chip-size thin-?lm device encapsulation, microchip-embedded
capacitors and microelectronics for recording, stimulation, and
wireless telemetry. The design process in the development of
medical devices is also discussed. Advances in biomedical
engineering, microfabrication technology, and neu- science have led
to improved medical-device designs and novel functions. However,
many challenges remain. This book focuses on the engineering
approaches, R&D advances, and technical challenges of medical
implants from an engineering p- spective. We are grateful to
leading researchers from academic institutes, national
laboratories, as well as design engineers and professionals from
the medical device industry who have contributed to the book. Part
one of this series covers designs of implantable neural prosthetic
devices and their clinical applications.
