dc.description.abstractOver the last few decades, there has been a large growth in the development of technologies for neuroscience applications. The majority of these technologies rely on the separation of bio-particles and monitoring bioelectrical responses. To record the bioelectrical activity, patterned electrode arrays have been widely used. Successful results have been obtained on arrays formed on rigid substrates. However, in certain biological/biomedical applications, rigid devices reached their application limit. Flexibility is necessary, in a number of instances, to successfully integrate electronics with specific biological systems. This gives rise to the need of flexible materials, which not only need to be biocompatible but maintain stable electrical properties under mechanical loading conditions.
