The stability of long-term microfabricated implants is hindered by the presence of multiple water diffusion paths within artificially patterned thin-film encapsulations. Side permeation, defined as infiltration of molecules through the lateral surface of the thin structure, becomes increasingly critical with the trend of developing high-density and miniaturized neural electrodes. However, current permeability measurement methods do not account for side permeation accurately nor quantitatively.

AbstractPeople with late-stage Parkinson’s disease (PD) often suffer from debilitating locomotor deficits that are resistant to currently available therapies. To alleviate these deficits, we developed a neuroprosthesis operating in closed loop that targets the dorsal root entry zones innervating lumbosacral segments to reproduce the natural spatiotemporal activation of the lumbosacral spinal cord during walking.
